Seasonal guests can add our custom outfitted Airstream Camper, which offers additional sleeping for up to four of your guests. It offers a bit more space for couples or kids who want their own room for sleeping (1 Full-size Double bed, plus 2XL Twin beds) and hanging out. Offered during Summer months upon request and requires an additional $75.00 cleaning fee, and nightly additional rate of $100/night or $600/weekly. All bedding provided. Airstream stays cool with fresh lakeside breezes from all sides and cozy buttoned up when the weather turns cooler.
The cottage offers an updated bathroom and new nautical furnishings, set against a backdrop of soft colors that invite you to relax!
After a day of fishing, retreat into the living room and melt into the plush couch. As you watch the Detroit Tigers game on the flat-screen TV, you'll have panoramic lake views through the room's large windows.
Channel your inner Bobby Flay in the fully equipped kitchen, which boasts a microwave, Keurig, toaster, blender, electric hand mixer, and more!
If you can't get enough of the fresh lake air, dine al fresco on the expansive deck. With a dining table for 6 and lake views, the deck is the perfect locale for an unforgettable family meal.
Before calling it a day, enjoy the newly added Barrel Sauna & Outdoor Hot Tub Deck with lake views and rinse off the day's adventures under the stars in the outdoor shower!
The home's 2 cozy bedrooms feature wood floors and panoramic views of Silver Lake through the windows that reach from corner to corner. In addition, the master bedroom offers a queen-sized bed and ample storage while the guest bedroom sits just a few steps from the spacious deck.
For a one-of-a-kind day in the sun, head down to the private beach! Boasting a wood-burning fire pit, fishing dock, charcoal grill, gas grill, hammock, and boat ramp, this expansive yard has something for everyone. You can also soak in the fresh air by showering in the outdoor shower and taking advantage of the outdoor changing room.
Early Check-in / Late Check-out Requests are not possible.
We recognize that our guests often want to request early arrival or later check-outs. While we really try to say yes to our guest requests, this is the one request that we cannot accommodate.
We strive to have our homes in perfect order for your arrival and that is a monumental task for our cleaning & maintenance crews to attain in the amount of time allotted. Having guests arrive earlier or stay later adds additional pressure to an already tight timeline.
We appreciate your understanding and suggest that if you would like time as the contracting Guest to do your own preparations, that you ask your guests to arrive at a time later than 4pm.
We also have a list of suggestions for things to do if you need to occupy your group until the 4pm or later check-in time.

GPS sometimes misdirects guests to EAST Silver Lake Rd, but the cottage access is off WEST Silver Lake Rd.
Should you find you are having GPS difficulties, if you enter the address for St. Patrick Catholic Church (630 S West Silver Lake Rd, Traverse City, MI 49685), Van Petten Drive is located directly across the road from the church. At the “y” in the road on Van Petten, turn right and it will take you directly to the cottage at the very end of the dirt road. Please be sure to observe the speed limit signage as a courtesy to our neighbors.
Take advantage of this home's top-notch Traverse City location by making a splash in Silver Lake. Since you'll be living just steps from the shore with access to paddle boards, a rowboat and kayaks, you'll be able to explore the lake however you want!
Downtown Traverse City offers a unique array of businesses that are sure to impress. Whether you choose to eat at a 5-star restaurant, visit a distinctive shop, or walk down the bay, you're sure to fall in love with this gorgeous Michigan town.
This home is located in the heart of Northern Michigan's beautiful wine country. Since this area sits close to the 45th parallel, known for growing world-renowned grapes, a winery in Leelanau or Old Mission is a must.
Love good food? Then you've come to the right place. Traverse City is one of the great foodie destinations where an emphasis on fresh produce, artisan cheeses, and locally grown poultry and meats make dining out an experience that can't be matched in many larger cities.
If you're looking to explore the area further, check out Leland, Empire, and Suttons Bay, some of the area's most popular tourist towns.
