Carp Lake, Michigan
This is a two bedroom cottage on crystal clear, sandy bottom, all sports Paradise Lake. Two separate bedrooms and a futon will accommodate six comfortably. There is a local marina and bait shop on the lake for all of your boating and fishing needs. If you wish you can bring your own boat and launch it down the street at the DNR ramp and park right outside the cottage at your private dock. The fishing is excellent year round. We also have a 27 foot pontoon available for rent (weekly)at our cottage.
Our cottage is centrally located at the Tip of the Mitt. Five minutes from Mackinaw City, and Mackinaw Island Ferries, museums, historical Fort Michilmacinac, lighthouses, Mill Creek. Just over the Mackinaw Bridge will take you to Taquaneman falls, pictured rocks, Sault Ste. Marie, and the Sault Locks. Casinos are in Petoskey, or in St. Ignace, just over the Mackinaw Bridge.

A sweet, charming cottage on a beautiful lake. Perfect for enjoying cool fall evenings and lovely sunsets.
We LOVED this cottage! Very cozy and clean! We enjoyed the lake views and great location. We will be back and bring our littles and kayaks next time!
Great Knotty Pine and Acorn design interior. Very comfortable setting. Exterior is quiet with the Ducks swimming by the dock. Reading a book on the deck with the dog looking over the water and yard. We only wish we could have more time to stay. Next visit will be longer. The Gehde's from Green Bay Wi.
Convenient, clean & cozy. Easy booking via VRBO. Jennifer was prompt, and courteous with responses. Note...no AC installed but the area temp dropped on the first night and stayed down during our visit. Since our goal was to spend time around each Great Lake this was the perfect location for us. Many thanks to Jennifer and VRBO for the great service!
Beautiful cottage of beautiful lake. I feel the pictures didnt do the cottage justice it was much nicer than i expected. Very clean and cozy with every at home amenities i could want. Pontoon is available for rental during the stay for a very reasonable price. While out on the lake we saw bald eagles numerous times over the lake. Was a great view. Will definitely stay at acorn cottage in the future
This little lakeside cottage was perfect for our stay. Beautiful view of the lake & convenient location to many of the attractions nearby.
The rental was pretty much as described, nothing more and nothing less. The cabin is old with older/ uncomfortable furnishings. The location is nice, on a picturesque lake and very close to the Mackinaw bridge and Upper Peninsula. We’ve stayed at a fair amount of VRBOs and most have “welcome” supplies like coffee for the first morning, bathroom soap and basic cooking supplies. This one does not, with the exception of salt and pepper.
Cottage is small, half the burners on stove worked. Several burned out light bulbs, or no light bulbs. Chairs very and futon uncomfortable. Biggest issue, no rails on steep steps to lake. This should be noted for the older customers or people with disabilities. Pontoon could use a good cleaning. Overall it was less then what I expected. We left a day early due to rain.
This place is c completely awesome. Very clean, gorgeous views, super close to Mackinawand the UP, just great. The pontoon boat was in great shape. I read that someone didn’t like this place and chose to stay in a hotel!?!? Clearly they have some screws loose, this place is top notch.
Lovely lake and location. The cottage is perfectly charming. Wonderful parks and historic sites nearby, nice little stores and towns and very good restaurants.
Enjoy our stay. Quiet & peaceful which was what we needed. Could use a railing on the first set of steps for safety reasons. Nice place.
Picturesque cabin on the lake. Antique cabin feel with convenience & comfort. Quick trip to Mackinac Island, Mackinaw City & Cheboygan. Serene nature, quiet & peaceful. Great escape.
Beautiful scenery and comfortable
Communication to get the code to get into the place was a bit of a hassle but overall the place is nice and your typical grandparents cabin. The walls are thin so keep that in mind if you have more than 2 people staying there. I loved the multiple outdoor sitting areas and views of the lake. Mornings were peaceful and quiet. There is a resort 3 doors down so that can get a little loud but wasn't constant. Overall a quiet lake with minimal boats, which was nice for swimming and paddle boarding. Appreciated the reasonable pontoon rental that is right on property. Recommend taking advantage of that! Also, the location is really good proximity to Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island.
Fabulous location. Waterfront. Easy check in. We would definitely return and recommend.
Nice cottage on a nice lake central to lots of activities. Enjoyed exploring the area and traveling to a few favorite spots in the UP, close to the bridge. Found the beds to be comfortable which was a concern having Lumbar fusion surgery last summer. The gas grill also came in handy.
Would get this place again !?
A wonderful cottage with great views of a beautiful lake. We had everything we needed, perfect weather, great location to get to all the adventures of Mackinaw City!!!!
