Amazing Long Lake Sunsets, Private Dock & 100' Waterfront All Yours!

Make your next vacation memories at this artistically updated brick cottage located on 100' of private Long Lake shoreline with an amazing sunset view over South Island. Guests will appreciate the sandy hard-bottom lakefront which includes a new aluminum dock with a spacious patio area for sitting in the sunshine or throwing out a fishing line. The concrete HOA boat launch is less than 300’ away making launching your boat a quick and easy no-stress task. This charming cottage is fully furnished with many amenities including a dishwasher, fridge with an ice-maker, a Weber gas grill, and fast wifi. Enjoy four bedrooms containing (1) King, (1)Queen, (2)Queens, and (1)Twin Bunk and (2) Bathrooms all on one level. This location is incredibly peaceful with the most amazing sunsets in a friendly-family, low & slow traffic, treed neighborhood.

Downtown Traverse City is a 15 minute drive. The cottage's location is ideal on the east side of Long Lake providing easy access to Traverse City entertainment, Interlochen Center for the Arts, casinos, sand dunes, golfing, skiing, and all that the greater Grand Traverse, Leelanau, and Benzie areas have to offer.

Long Lake is the largest lake in Grand Traverse County sized at 2800+ acres. It is also the 30th largest inland lake in Michigan. Long Lake contains 4 accessible islands-many in view from the cottage. Enjoy the public walking trails and picnic tables that can be found on them. Long Lake is also known for great fishing with depths up to 70 feet. There is a significant drop-off just past the dock for successful fishing if you do not have a boat to bring along.

Standard household appliances include coffee maker, microwave, toaster, cookware, dishware, dishwasher, fridge with ice maker. The home does come fully furnished including linens, (2) TVs, Wifi, new Weber propane grill, frontload washer and dryer, a/c and heat. Long Lake Peninsula also has a private park (baseball diamond, basketball, playground equipment), & association beach and boat ramp that guests are welcome to enjoy.

Please NOTE: Pets are not welcome. Please keep all smoking outside and cigarette butts removed properly. Daily maid service is not available. The yard is natural and uneven. Pathways could be difficult to navigate by toddlers, the elderly, or guests with mobility concerns. Although the cottage is one-level living, there are apps 3 concrete steps to the entrance. There is a garage on site for Owner storage. Guest access is not included in the rental fees.

Peak Summer reservations have a 5-night minimum that must occur between a Monday-to-Monday turnover due to Housekeeping arrangements. A weekly discount is provided for a 7-night stay.

Long Lake Living
The Loon Landing was fabulous. The host was very easy to communicate with. The home exceeded our expectations and the lake views from the livingroom, kitchen and dining room were beautiful. Location was outstanding and a short distance to all activities and shopping.

Great Vacation spot
This was the perfect location and house for an up north getaway for our family. House very comfortably sleeps 8 with plenty of room. Long Lake is a great lake for any activity. We rented a boat for the week and the dock worked perfectly. My 5 year old nephew was able to walk around in the sandy shallow area and chase minnows as well as jump off the dock at the end. Each evening we watched the sunset from the firepit. This is a perfect spot for day trips to the entire area (wineries, Traverse, sleeping bear dunes, etc.)

Relaxing Respite
This property was perfect for our multigenerational family gathering for a long weekend. The one level home was great for my in-laws who use canes and walkers. The furniture was comfortable and the house was stocked with necessary and desired supplies. Audrey was easy to communicate with prior to and during the stay. It was a welcome break away. The big glass windows gave us a great view of the frozen lake and the snow covered trees. I highly recommend this home as a vacation spot. I can only begin to imagine how great it is in the summer time!

A Vacation to Remember!
We stayed at this newly renovated home on Long Lake and loved our time there! We comfortably slept four adults and five kids. There were several spaces in the home to either watch TV, play a game of cards or have a large family meal. The house is extremely clean and nicely decorated with personal touches. All of the beds and furniture were comfortable and new. The views out of all of the windows facing the lake were breathtaking! The lake is a hard, sandy bottom with a great dock for our boat and plenty of room to sit and watch the sun set or fish. It was probably our favorite spot to hang out...seriously gorgeous views at night. The location was ideal for going to Traverse City, Charlevoix and Leland. We would absolutely stay there again!

Beware of rental contract terms and security cameras
I rented this property for a family funeral. As soon as we arrived, we noticed a security camera that the owners watch you on this. We had family over for dinner one night because my mom is 89 years old and does not move well and I got a text from the owner that we were breaking our rental agreement with more than 8 people on the property and more than 3 cars. Keep this in mind if you rent this property. They also did not give me back my full deposit.

Perfect!
This VRBO is the best (and we travel!). This full house has it all: comfortable beds, easily controlled temperature, great open spaces, plentiful seating, a fully stocked kitchen ready for use, and even a grill with outdoor seating! The view of the lake greeted us every morning, and the remote location is fabulously close to the city and all the conveniences you could need/want. Even the parking is simple and plentiful. Additionally the host was friendly and helpful with clearly outlined instructions for entry and exit, we will be back.

There were 8 of us and the cottage worked beautifully for us all.
We loved the location and the fact that the lake was just a few steps away from the house,. We had wonderful views of the lake and found that the A/C and fans kept us vey comfortable at night. The kitchen was well appointed and the fridge was pretty new. We were happy that the w/d were large because we had to do some laundry most nights. We hope to stay at this cottage the next time we come up.
