The Cottage sits in a quieter area at the southern end of the lake, with a beautiful beach and very little boat traffic.
The vaulted living room overlooks the water and gets an incredible amount of natural light.
The beach has 75 feet of sandy shoreline, and the lake also has a sandy bottom.
The kitchen is bright and airy, and includes all the essentials you'll need during your stay at the Cottage.
The master bedroom has stunning views overlooking the water.  It also has blackout shades for anyone looking for a few extra zzz's in the morning!

About this property

Tucked down a long dirt drive, this property is private, serene & has an awesome beach front!

Tucked down a long dirt drive, this property is PRIVATE, serene & an awesome LOCATION! Visit for a beach vacay, fall getaway, or winter sport adventure. This cottage is newly renovated & very clean; it has all you need & nothing more. Ideal for a single family (bring the g-parents!), couples’ getaway, or small group of friends.

Enjoy both rest & play! 75ft sandy-bottom beach includes 3 kayaks & 2 paddle boards. Downtown TC – 15 min; Leelanau & Old Mission – 25 min; Crystal Mtn. – 30 min.'

Guests will not need to interact with us at any point during their stay, but we're available at any time for questions to make sure they have the best possible stay!

Silver Lake Cottage is tucked away at the end of a serene half mile long gravel driveway with two other year-round cottages. The space was originally developed in the 1960's as a family's summer cottages. The land on both sides of the cluster of three homes is undeveloped, so you'll be surrounded by bountiful nature while enjoying your Up North vacation!

Guests will enter through a contactless keypad lock, and have access to the entire house and beach front throughout their stay.

Silver Lake Cottage was completely renovated in 2021, and is stocked with all new furniture, appliances, and linens. The decor is intentionally simple and bright, and stocked with everything you'll need to enjoy your Up North vacation! The home features two bedrooms on the main level; one with a queen bed, and the other with a full-over-full bunkbed, with a trundle below. There is a third "bedroom" on the lower level, with a queen size murphy bed. The lower level has it's own full bathroom, and a separate entrance, making it ideal for in-laws, or a second family.

The home is situated on a half acre lot, with dozens of undeveloped acres surrounding it. If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat that's close to all the action, look no further!

There is plenty of onsite parking in the driveway. Downtown Traverse City is about 15 minutes by car.

NEW LISTING!! This home was previously listed with a Property Management company, but my wife and I have decided to take direct responsibility for listing & managing the property. We believe so strongly in our guests' experience, and we know we'll be able to deliver the best possible experience throughout your stay. The previous listing had 15+ reviews with a 4.9 rating.
