Our lovingly restored vintage cabin blends old‑school charm with modern comforts, creating the perfect place to unwind, explore, and make memories. If you love vintage cottages, tiny homes or unique stays, you will love this cabin!

    Hot Tub: Unwind and gaze at the stars in the hot tub with a view of the lake through the trees.

    Beach and Lake View: Enjoy our pedal boat, kayaks, and canoe (free - no rental charges!) or swim in the refreshing lake! Beach access and amenities are shared with one other cabin on the same property. This property is set back from the lake behind the other cabin on the property with a view of the lake from the hot tub, firepit and hammock areas.

The location is fantastic, tucked away at the end of a quiet road on a beautiful lake. Amenities are great, there’s plenty of things to do or not do depending on your speed. Highly recommended, thank you!

We had a lovely Winter stay in your cozy cabin on the lake. The hot tub was relaxing. The bed was so comfortable and the location was perfect for dinners out, shopping and hiking. We would 100% stay here again. Thanks to Michelle for great communication and all the nice personal touches like coffee, a bottle of wine and soft comfy robes.

The host was very communicative and offered LOTS of recommendations for visiting Traverse City. The cabin was cute, very clean, and very well stocked with everything we could've wanted for our trip. This cabin is set back from the water. So, if you want to overlook the water, I'd recommend booking the blue cabin instead of the green one.

Property was fantastic. Couldn’t have asked for a better location that was close to the city, but just far enough outside to relax and unwind. The lake is beautiful and the bass fishing was great as well. The canoe and kayaks that are available were a nice bonus. The host was responsive during the entire process and communicated with us on a regular basis. The host even gave us some great recommendations on several area restaurants that were great. I would not hesitate to stay here again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at the Green Cottage on High Lake. Really enjoyed the beach access with kayaks and toys for the kids. Also, a plus to have beach towels ready at the cottage. One less thing to pack! Cottage was big enough for our family of four (2 little ones). Bunk beds were a hit. The hot tub was a bonus to enjoy in the evenings. Overall, a great stay, communicative host, and comfortable cottage.

Very good communication with the host, Michelle. The cabin we stayed in was small but had 2 bedrooms, but very clean and fresh. Even went the extra mile by washing sheets in a detergent I needed because of allergies...very cool! They have another cabin that's a bit larger so for bigger families I'd suggest that. But our cabin was lovely and cozy surrounded by lots of trees and a very short walk to the beach. This little cabin and High Lake were just LOVELY!
