ABOUT THE RENTAL
Two Walloon Lake Cottages Perfect for a Multi-Family Vacation!

Nestled on the North Arm of Walloon Lake, these two lovely cottages situated on one large waterfront parcel is the perfect layout for multiple families. The spacious backyard is an ideal setting for yard games and creating memories on the lake. With 100 feet of waterfront, there is plenty of space to swim and play. The North Arm of Walloon Lake has a soft and grassy bottom, so it is not ideal for littleones wanting to swim, but there is a public beach 9 miles from the property. The brand-new dock is perfect for mooring a boat, and if you are looking to do more on the lake, Tommy’s on Walloon is the perfect spot to rent watercrafts, paddle boards, and more! This rental is perfectly positioned – a 12 minute drive to Petoskey, Walloon Village, and Bay Harbor.

These cottages are set up so that the traveling parties can have their space, but still be right by each other. The lakeside cottage has three bedrooms, two baths with a full laundry, living room, and kitchen. One of the bedrooms is located on one end of the house and is set up as a primary suite. The roadside cottage has two bedrooms, one bath, and also has a laundry, living area, and kitchen. Combined there are five bedrooms and three bathrooms.

*Access to water toys and boats are not included in the rental of this property. If you would like information on watercraft rentals, please reach out to us for recommendations!

    This is the second time we have stayed here and love the location. Great for walking and biking plus it’s close to town. The yard is great for the kids too!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unique property that contains two separate homes. Both homes are in nice condition. The homes nicely accommodated 7 adults and two children. The homes have air conditioning that actually works! The property is narrow so the lake view is limited but nice. The larger of the two homes has a bbq that works great. The property management staff was friendly and super responsive. There is a boat dock. We rented a pontoon boat from Tommy’s Boat Rental for the week which was so much fun.

    We have been coming to Walloon Lake for over 20 years. We have stayed in places all around the lake. The cottages were very cute and very well appointed. Perfect amount of space for us. We loved the yard and played a lot of yard games during our stay. Our only issue was the shallowness of the lake at the end of the dock. We have a wake surf boat and we were not able to use the dock to tie our boat. We rigged up an anchor system which was very difficult due to the very soft lake bottom in that area so we made it work. We would gladly stay here again, but only if that dock situation is remedied. We are looking for a place we can come back to again and again each summer. It would be great if it was this place.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The two homes worked absolutely wonderful for our two families. Here are a few things that were not as wonderful. The lake water at this place is not nice. We removed leeches from our kids and the water had a lot of black sediment seaweed that stirred up every time you touched the water. There is not a nice entry into the water for small children. If you were thinking of running off the dock and jumping in, this is not your place. The dock pictured is not the dock at the cottages. There is no AC. Which is fine if there are cooler nights and you can swim but if it's hot at night there is no place to cool down. One warm night we played games at the table and in 20 minutes we had to vacuum up hundreds of bugs that were getting through the screens. Not a pleasant experience on top of already being warm.The cottages were very nice they had everything we needed and were very comfortable. The yard was fun to play games, basketball and sit around the fire. Despite all of these nice things we were there for the lake, for our older kids to paddle board and swim and our youngers to wade in the water and play in the sand. We can find other nice cottages with AC for a much cheaper weekly rate that are not on a lake. For that reason we would not stay here again even though the set up was ideal.

    Very well appointed cottages. Even though they are small, everything is well laid out making the most of the space. We had 10 total between 3 families but probably would be ideal for 2 families with everyone having their space who are already comfortable living together. Yard was nice with a long walk to the beach which was really nice with younger ones as we were comfortable with them out in the yard playing without fear of falling into the lake. Location on the lake is a little mucky and has some seaweed so limited swimming off the dock (only for the kiddos) but having a boat worked great as it’s on a nice leg of the lake with quick access to the sandbar. Another positive of the location was that the location is private without really seeing any neighbors. Quick drive to town and relatively quiet road for morning bike rides and walks. Enjoyed our stay and had beautiful weather all week!
