Cottage holiday rentals in Arcadia

We had an amazing time at Salma’s big beautiful cottage! It’s like something out of a dream. The cottage itself is very beautifully designed with lots of wooden features & accents both within the interior and exterior. We fell in love with its beauty. It’s super spacious inside and has everything you need for a dreamy cottage weekend. The outdoor hot tub with string lights were a very cute touch! The large property is nestled within a lovely outdoor wooded area that feels far away from busy life but is actually only 15-20 minutes away from most local Traverse city places! So it makes for a great location that is best of both worlds. The cottage was very clean and it was very easy to spend the day lounging around in and then enjoy its cozy nature in the evenings. Salma was very kind and easy to communicate with! She was a wonderful host. We really loved staying here and would love to return someday. This is a true one of kind gem and I’m sure you’d make some wonderful memories here too.

Omg, I don’t have the words for how awesome this place is. First, it is exactly what you see in the pictures and more. Second, it’s not far from anything and third, it’s so peaceful. I could get lost in pure bliss there. Weather I was in the hot tub, the porch, at the table on the deck, the fire pit, the dock, or even just sitting on the beach collecting rocks. Absolute Heaven. I’ve even told the rest of my family that next time we go to Michigan, we’re going to Traverse City and we’re staying at this house. Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. Thank you!

We had a great time at Torch lake. Ryan was a great host - very responsive who left very good instructions, recommendations for restaurants things to do in the area. The home is very clean and well supplied. The pontoon is very nice.

The Octagon cottage was the perfect retreat for our family vacation! Very close to Lake Michigan and Silver Lake. The hot tub and game room are an excellent addition for those unpredictable Michigan weather days! The home was stocked with all we needed and the attention to detail for guests showcase how great the hosts are! We will absolutely return for another family outing.

We had a fantastic stay! The house was spotless, very comfortable, and in a perfect location—just minutes from restaurants, shops, and the lake. Stephanie and Bobby were incredibly easy to work with and had a thoughtfully organized book full of recommendations and options for just about anything you could need or want to do in the area. Highly recommend!

Cannot recommend this host and this property enough. Nathan was communicative while we were still looking at the property, and responded quickly through the rest of the process until check out. He provided great recommendations for local places to try out and we had a peaceful stay. The property was roomier than expected for the master and cozy for the spare rooms, and we especially loved the living room and outdoor furniture. So happy to have found this gem of a place and excited to come back in the future!

We had a great time. It is a wonderful house and a lot of great memories were made. Fun for all ages! My husband and I are in our 40’s, two 20 year olds (our son and his girlfriend), a 16 year old (son), my sister and her husband who are in their 30’s and their 3 month old son. We had pinball tournaments, Godzilla was our favorite, grilled out, made smores at the fire pit, played in the pool and relaxed in the warm bath and hot tub. We rented UTV’s at Silver lake, went to the Ludington North Breakwater Lighthouse, went mini-golfing and go carting at AJ’s, ate and bowled at Stix, and walked around the shops in Ludington. The Coffee Coup’s Golden Egg is a must have for coffee lovers! Thank you, Carolyn, for letting us stay in your beautifully time warped 70’s home!

we had a wonderful stayed. Lauren and Tom are very up front in the ad about the location being off a main road, yet it did not bother us. We enjoyed their home as well as the fire pit and hot tub. The house is cute and uncluttered. Had everything we needed for a getaway. Definitely would love to come back.

We absolutely loved our stay at lil gem, it was just far enough off the grid that allowed us to relax, but still let us explore michigan! Jeri was super helpful and responsive to all of our needs as well! Definitely the perfect spot for a peaceful romantic getaway! We’ll be back!

The rental was perfect. Just big enough for the 6 of us. We had all the amenities available and needed nothing. The grocery store was just up the road so we packed light. We also utilized the washer/dryer which was handy. On Saturdays, there is the Merritt Speedway. Good for a laugh and beer. Don't forget to visit Tastey Treat. Beach is groomed/sandy and clear water for swimming. I could go on! Thank you and we look forward to coming back!, The Westlake's

This house was exactly what we were looking for. Directly on the lake with an area for our kids to play, a dock to enjoy and an awesome porch and outdoor firepit. The house was very clean and had all cookware and basic items we needed. Great place for fun with the family or just go relax and unwind.

We really enjoyed our stay. When we first arrived, we wondered if we had picked the wrong location as it did not seem as close to things as we had thought, but after further investigation of the area, it was in a perfect spot. Hosts were very helpful and even flexible in changing the dates of our stay, and this pet friendly rental made it easy to travel with pets. The space was very clean and well stocked with things needed for the week. We would recommend this location to others. One of our favorite finds was the Three Trees Winery just up the road. It’s also in a great location to explore surrounding areas, like the Dune Climb at Sleeping Bear, Glen Arbor, Leland, Arcadia Bluffs Golf Course, and of course Traverse City. If you are trying to decide whether to visit the area and stay here, don’t hesitate (especially if traveling with pets).

Nice little cabin, close to many bodies of water and centrally located between Glen Arbor and Leland. Had a great time.

My wife, toddler, and I had a great summer weekend in Pentwater! The cottage was perfect for our small family. We were just minutes away from the beach and downtown. The cottage was well furnished and had just what we need. If your stay is in the summer, please be sure to bring a fan or two and other things to stay cool in the evening. Rob communicated great tips on cooling at night, but with no AC, it can still get quite stuffy. Rob also provided the cottage with multiple blowing fans. A great trip once again! Rob is a great host and will take care of what you need.

My family booked the Wet Nest for 4 nights and it was PERFECT!! Everything we needed was provided, and in good condition. The cabin sits right on the water and have plenty of room for the kids to play!! I cant say enough good things about this place. We made some core memories and are already talking about going back! Thank you so much for a perfect stay!!

This is our second time staying at Laurie’s Airbnb and we love it. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the winter wonderland up there. Laurie is very communicative and very helpful. The place is comfy and we love that we can bring our dogs!

Our stay at Little Skip Cottage was peaceful and just what we needed. A great little spot for two! The kitchen is well equipped for an Airbnb, which was great for us because we love to cook. The private beach and wooded surrounding are beautiful and the perfect environment to relax. Northport and Suttons Bay are not far at all for going out, getting groceries etc.

Absolutely quaint little guest home in the back yard of a much larger, grander house. They really went out of their way to make it as nice as possible with a beautiful kitchen upgrade and tasteful furniture. About a mile walk to the downtown's strip and the beach front and very doable in June. Slow-paced, old fashioned America feels.

Great little cottage, when the dock gets removed/replaced/repaired,this place will be a fisherman’s dream. Very comfortable, perfect location for our two man fishing trip. Close to boat launch, and easy to get out of town to other spots too. Drive is a little tight to back in with boat, but ally directly across from drive helps a lot. Beautiful views ALL day long! 20th yearly fishing trip to Manistee, and this was my favorite stay, we’ll be back here again if available for our schedule next year.

Ben was able to accommodate my last minute stay and I’m so appreciative! I was hoping to get away from the city and enjoy watching the lake with my partner and pup. We were obsessed with the sunroom, multiple board games/puzzle available, watching movies and just catching back up. The lake is still a bit chilly which worked for me because nobody else was out and about! It was such a peaceful, calming trip and I would definitely come back.

Thank you Virginia and Javier for hosting us at your cottage. It was such a wonderful cozy cottage and the kids loved the direct access to the lake. My wife specifically appreciated how clean the entire cottage was. The clean towels were a nice bonus. I certainly loved having a gas grill. Made cooking dinner an easy task 🙂. Will certainly be back in the future. Thank you!

Great place / location. Easy access to surrounding attractions. All as desribed in posting. Would absolutely stay here again.

Excellent lighting features i.e. motion sensor lights in kitchen if needing to find something at night. Another was great lighted mirrored in the bathroom. Fully equipped kitchen with premier pots, pans and dishes, along with new meat thermometer and other items needed for cooking and grilling. Hostess cooled the cabin off for us prior to arrival on an unusually hot day. She also responded quickly to our questions.

We loved our long weekend at this cottage, it was beautifully finished with everything we could need. Great central location between the beach and Elberta where we had a 40th birthday party to attend. Easy walk to the grocery store for supplies. Comfy beds and linens. Responsive and helpful host.
