Escape to this seasonal rustic 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom A-frame cabin nestled on the serene shores of Grand Traverse Bay in Williamsburg, MI. With private beach access and stunning bay views, this dog-friendly retreat offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort.
In the summer, enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, or swimming right from your doorstep. Nearby nature trails like Maple Bay Natural Area offer scenic hikes and peaceful forest paths.

Spring brings the landscape back to life with blooming wildflowers, fresh lake breezes, and ideal conditions for birdwatching and golfing at nearby LochenHeath Golf Club, known for its spectacular views of the bay.
You’ll enjoy high-speed WiFi, a small fully equipped kitchen, and all the essentials for a relaxing stay. Whether you're watching the sunrise from the deck, exploring nearby wineries and trails, or simply unwinding by the firepit under the stars, this A-frame is your perfect northern Michigan escape.

Review Score:   8
Summary: The cottage was a nice “Up north” cottage. A few disappointments: the first coffee maker didn’t work and the second had a carafe without a handle. The beach chairs were a pile of twisted broken plastic. The biggest negative was the constant dripping of the shower.
