Cozy Log Cabin on Beautiful Lake in Northern Michigan

Relax or recreate on beautiful Heart Lake in northern Michigan near Gaylord. Cozy log cabin with 3 bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths. The lake is very clean and surrounded by mature trees for a beautiful setting. We have resident loons and eagles during the summer. All-sports access: fishing, boating, skiing, jet-skis, paddle boards and kayaks are all welcome. Lake has a no-wake rule from 7:30 pm until 11:30 am, allowing for tranquil mornings and evenings, and still plenty of time for all the fun during the day.

During the winter, the cabin is just 100 yards from one of the main snowmobile trails that connects with hundreds of miles of other trails. Nearby Treetops has downhill skiing. With some of the best snowfall in Michigan, Gaylord is in the heart of all of the winter activities, including cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and sledding.

Two bedrooms semi-private with open ceilings to beautiful cathedral log ceilings. Third bedroom tucked away from living area. Living area open concept with views to the lake. Sunroom makes a perfect spot to relax with a book while looking out on the lake.

Second visit; excited for the next
We visited this cottage three years ago and were excited to experience it again. The lake is beautiful and quiet, and the paddle boards are an added perk. It is close to Lake Michigan and Huron, with lots of long hikes in between. The cottage is lovely inside (and outside!) and mixes the history of traditional log construction with contemporary amenities. We always have everything we need. Both the host and neighbors are friendly. I will stay again.

Best Ever!
This property has everything you could possibly want! It’s spotlessly clean, is exactly as advertised, and communication was almost instantaneous. It’s on a beautiful, clean small lake and has many places to sit and soak in the gorgeous views. I give it my highest recommendation. Thanks, Traci!

End of summer vacation
3 girls looking to have a wonderful time. Wanting to fish, yard sale, shop and do crafts. The cabin was awesome, the landlord great and time spent with friends super. We only caught 3 fish the two weeks we were there but made up for it with the other things! Would recommend this beautiful cabin to anyone!

Pointe Cottage on Heart Lake
Enjoyed our time here. Everything was as listed on VRBO. I thought the cottage was better than the pictures. Only thing I'd change is putting the bedroom TV in the 1st bedroom to cut down on noise. Owner and neighbors were super nice. Great swimming for kids and adults. Will try to rent again.

Perfect Getaway!
The property is absolutely gorgeous. The lake is clear, clean, and peaceful. We loved everything but not having AC on 2 really hot days! The beds are comfortable, which is a huge concern when we travel. Our daughter doesn’t walk in her own so she crawls everywhere. There were no concerns with her being on the floor! Traci was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. This trip eas just what our family needed.

Wonderful cabin with everything you need....and great host!!
Wonderful time with family... swimming, stand up paddle boarding, boating, fishing, reading, playing games...just relaxing together. One note about the walls not being full height... we had a little one that went to bed early but the rest of us were able to stay up late playing games in the enclosed sun room with no issues. It was a bit difficult in the morning though since two of the bedrooms are near the kitchen. Traci was a wonderful host... very thorough and responsive. One SUP was deflated and she was at the house within an hour pumping it up for us. The house had everything we needed! Thank you for sharing with us. :)
