Welcome to Bear Lake Cottages

Escape to the perfect Northern Michigan getaway at our two charming family cottages, nestled on 158 feet of private lake frontage—a rare find on beautiful Bear Lake. Whether you're planning a family vacation or a week on the water with friends, our property offers the space and setting to relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories.

Bear Lake is an all-sports lake with a hard sandy bottom and a gradual, shallow shoreline extending nearly 20 feet into the water. The warm, crystal-clear water and zero-entry beach make it ideal for young children, while boaters, paddlers, and anglers will love everything the lake has to offer.

Why Guests Love Staying Here

What truly sets our property apart is the 158 feet of private lake frontage. Unlike many lakefront rentals, there's room for everyone to spread out and enjoy their vacation. Spend the afternoon lounging in a hammock, gather on the deck for happy hour, play games in the spacious yard, paddle around the lake, or simply relax with a book while the kids play safely in the shallow water.

The sandy lake bottom and gradual shoreline create the perfect swimming area for guests of every age, and because the water stays shallow near shore, it warms quickly and remains comfortable throughout the summer.

We're excited to introduce our brand-new Cabana Bunkie, designed to make your stay even more enjoyable.

Perfect for:

Happy hour with friends
Lunch by the lake
Watching the game on TV

Indoor lounge area with couch
Additional bar seating
TV
Ceiling fan
Pull-out full-size sofa bed for extra guests

Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, cheering on your favorite team, or winding down after a day on the lake, the Cabana is the perfect gathering spot.

Come experience everything that makes our Bear Lake cottages so special—a private beach, warm sandy water, endless outdoor fun, and a place where families return year after year to create unforgettable summer memories.

    It's a beautiful setting, having the canoe and kayak is wonderful, and the setup was great for us, two small families vacationing together. It's also great for taking small children swimming because the lake bottom is sandy and very shallow for quite a long way out. I appreciated being able to use the on-site drip charger for my PHEV, too.

    The hard well water situation was problematic for cooking, showering and drinking. The water pressure and size of the lower kitchen sink made washing dishes nearly impossible. The area is spectacular, but, the proximity to 31 distracts from the overall ambiance and was difficult to park during high traffic times.

    We enjoyed our stay at Bear Lake immensely. The cottages were excellent for our family and gave us the flexibility we needed. It was clean and right on the water! Kerry’s communication was outstanding and we benefited from her recommendations too. You’ll be glad you stayed here.
