Beach House (on Long Lake Penninsula) in Traverse City

Comfortable modern cottage with open floor plan in a very secluded rustic lakefront setting on
pristine Long Lake with 100 feet of sandy beach.
We're right on the beech (only 50 feet from the waters edge). No hikes down dozens of steps or crossing busy roads to access the lake. Very private location about 1 mile out on the Long Lake Penninsula, yet less than 10 miles from downtown Traverse City.
There's 2 private bedrooms, each with closets, built-in dressers and
queen size beds. We have modern natural gas heat and ceiling fans in all rooms.
Long Lake is rated as one of the top 5 cleanest lakes in Michigan.
The lake is aproximately 8 squrare miles.
Our large sandy beach is perfect for young children.
The 5 public islands in the lake offer exploring, hiking, swimming
and are great for secluded picnic get-aways.
Our cottage is located right on the beach at the bottom of a paved
private road on the really private "Long Lake Penninsula".
Our 100 ft dock can accomodate a number of boats.
Launch your water toys right off our beach or your larger boat at
the free public access and keep it at the cottage during your stay.
This lake has depths of nearly 100 feet in certain areas. Walleye &
Pike are abundant, as well as casting for bass right off our dock.
Gorgeous sunsets as well as lakefront shade trees (with open view of
the lake) make for relaxing summer evenings on the big lakefront
patio/BBQ area.

The cottage is fully furnished with bedding & linens included.
Cooking & eating utinsils are provided. We have a built-in
dishwasher, full size washer & dryer, microwave, side-by-side
refridgerator with icemaker, gas BBQ and cable TV.
Ample parking for up to 6 cars is right outside the door.
This is one of the best boating locations on the penninsula, not to
mention the lake!
Unlike Grand Traverse Bay, or Lake Michigan, weather rarely interferes with boating due to the protected geography of Long Lake.

This year's International Cherry Festival is July 4-10, 2009! This secluded cottage is only about 15 minutes from all the activity!
The lake is excellent for swimming and stays nice and warm into
September.
Tubing, Water skiing, wave runners, fishing and sailing are the main
boating activities.
Our lake association owns a park 1/2 mile down the road with a
baseball diamond & tennis courts.
There's many convenience, boating and marine, & well equiped hardware stores within a few
miles of the cottage.
Cherryland Mall, Cherry Capital Airport and downtown Traverse City
are only 15 minutes away.
Boone's Long Lake Inn (restaurant) is just 2 miles from the cottage

Strip steaks as well as many suculent seafood entries.
