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 2 full baths. The primary bedroom has an attached remodeled bathroom with large walk-in shower. 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. A large two-tier walkout deck makes for perfect spot for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails.

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.

Waters and Heart Lake are just 15 minutes to Gaylord with plenty of restaurants and shopping. The cottage is close to I-75 and just an hour to Mackinac or Traverse City.

Beautiful Cabin

We meet with family from MN every summer in Gaylord near our parents home. Had a great time again this year seeing everyone and having our family picnic. Kids enjoyed playing in the lake, our favorite place had some awesome upgrades done! We love this cabin!

Family Trip

We had a wonderful week. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We loved the paddle boards and the lake is beautiful with a sandy beach for the kids to play and it was quiet all week. We’ve rented different places the last few years for vacations but will definitely plan to come back to this one.

Wonderful Cabin

We stayed in this cabin for 6 nights. The cabin was clean, well-maintained and beautiful! The manager Traci is very friendly, responsive, and helpful. At one point we asked about the use of a rowboat on premise, Traci not only gave us permission, she came by and made sure we had oars for it! We very much enjoyed our stay here and look forward to coming back in future years!

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!

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.

Week getaway

The family really wanted to relax and just enjoy the week with a good view and good food. The cabin was great. The cabin was clean and the beds were comfortable. Lots of room for just the three of us. Quiet and peaceful. Plenty of bird watching and relaxing in and by the lake... we will be back again. Traci was delighrful and easy to deal with. No problems at all..... Thanks for everything

Cozy cottage-Heart Lake

We had the BEST time at this cottage. The cottage is extremely clean and is equipped with everything you will need for your stay. It is an original Log Cabin that has been very well kept, with a few updates that make it very charming. There are two amazing decks that were added to the lakeside side at the back of the house. It is a very quiet lake even though there was a lot of boat traffic mid day. The additional wooden deck down by the small beach was an added bonus, as was a very nice dock which also had a seating platform. Traci was extremely helpful and very attentive to any questions we had. We loved our stay here and will be looking at the calendar for a return visit in the future. 5 stars +++

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. :)

Amazing!

Honestly the best house I’ve ever rented! The house has everything you need and was comfortable for sleeping and hanging out, so much to do! The lake was crystal clear and perfect for swimming and boating. The loons greeted us every day. Traci, the property owner, was very responsive and made sure everything was great. We will be back again :-)

Beautiful!!!

We stayed for six days and had a blast. The cabin is fully stocked with almost anything you could need: cookware, propane grill, kitchenware, coffee maker, keurig, cleaning supplies, laundry room on site, shampoo, soap, life vests and two TVs with Roku. Great internet. It was clean and cozy with a beautiful view of Heart Lake. Our 2 year old loved the sandy beach- lots of sand castles, lol. We did a lot of grilling and enjoyed eating doors. While there isn't AC the cabin stayed pretty cool- there's plenty of fans. Also, the owner is great- very responsive. We definitely recommend this place and can't wait to go back!!!

Ideal Spot

This cabin was comfortable and well equipped. Plenty of room for the whole family yet intimate enough for a couple. The lake was so clear you could see the fish you catch right off the dock. Plenty of outdoor seating and nice fire pit. Wonderful host. Everything you need for a great vacation.
