A safe sandy beach awaits you, along with brilliant sunsets, and stunning views. You will discover that Burt Lake is one of northern Michigan's largest and most pristine warm-water inland lakes. You will stay in our private well-equipped guesthouse and be our personal guests. Since we have only one rental unit on our 100 feet of sandy beach, you will have a quiet, relaxing vacation with complete privacy.

Our Burt Lake Guesthouse is spacious, clean, air-conditioned, and completely smoke-free. Recently remodeled, it comes with a fully-equipped kitchen, and open-plan dining and living area. There is a large comfortable queen-size bedroom. You will have your own breakfast deck, which overlooks the lake. There is nothing between the guesthouse and the lake, except lawn, trees, and beach.

You have your choice of relaxing in the shady hammock, or sunning yourself directly on the beach. You may bring your own boat and use our dock and mooring.


We have the perfect beach for swimming, kayaking, or sailing. Nearby trails are great for hiking and mountain-biking. Dozens of golf courses are in the area, and the nearest is just two miles away. We are centrally located in northern Michigan, less than thirty minutes from Petoskey, Gaylord, Cheboygan, Harbor Springs, and the Mackinaw Island Ferry.

This property offers excellent value for those seeking a rental for just two people. You get a quality accommodation with a wonderful sandy beach, and all the space you need for two people. You get all the advantages of renting an expensive lake-front home, while only having to pay a fraction of the price for the guesthouse.

We also offer NUTRITIONAL RETREATS for those who are interested in leaving their old eating habits behind and embarking on a fresh start into a healthy lifestyle.

    We loved staying at Jess & Pam’s! The apartment above the garage was clean and comfortable, with everything we could have needed. The view of the lake and fall colors were beautiful! And Indian River is the perfect distance to enjoy the bigger tourist sites while still being able to get away from the hustle and bustle of it all. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to everyone!

    We spent a week and just returned today. There are so many things to see and do and Burt Lake is BEAUTIFUL. Jess and Pam were super hosts and replied to any questions we had immediately. We really enjoyed our stay and conversations with Jess and Pam.

    We had a wonderful stay on Burt lake. Beautiful sunsets on a private dock less than a minute walk from our cozy, comfortable private room that has all the comforts of home. All our needs are anticipated, so that all we needed to do was relax and investigate the small towns around the Burt Lake area or enjoy the water. There are multiple choices to fish on the lakes in the surrounding area. We also visited Mackinaw City because we were so close. Our Hosts were extremely accommodating. Definitely the best deal in the area if you want beach access and still be close to places to eat and shop. Multiple opportunities to enjoy the water from navigating the river or enjoying the connected lakes. Excellent time.

    Jess and Pam could not have been nicer or more helpful. The guesthouse was spotless and very comfortable. We highly recommend their place.

    From cleanliness to a welcoming warm greeting from our hosts it is always our favorite time of year. Wineries, boat rides, miniature golf and fine dining are only a short distance away. This is our third visit and plan to return every year
