Holiday rentals with a kayak in Carp Lake

Our second cousin holiday season at this location and we love how comfy and sociable of a space it is, while still providing privacy and space to isolate when needed. Amazing hosts and always helpful!

I would highly recommend to stay here. beautiful scenery, had all the amenities that you could ask for. Very clean and comfortable . The host was very responsive and friendly. I will return :)

Convenient launching pad for winter adventures. Under 10 minute drive to Treetops which was perfect for our weekend ski trip.

My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay here. Such a beautiful property! It was quiet and serene. The inside was spacious but comfortable, we felt right at home! Since it was a little chilly when we went, I was still able to enjoy the views of the lake from the couch with a cup of coffee. Brenda is a great host, very responsive, provided clear instructions, and ensured we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Will definitely be back!

If your looking for peace and quiet, this is the place. Beautiful scenery and wild life.

We spent a wonderful long weekend at Jill’s place and loved every minute. The cottage was exactly as described and shown in the pictures — tastefully decorated and very clean. The location felt secluded and peaceful, but was very close to dining and shopping. The deck is fantastic and the lake is beautiful. A very relaxing getaway spot. We will definitely be staying here again.

Denise’s place was better than expected! Very clean and comfortable beds. Everything you need is there. Her response time with our questions was almost immediate and so helpful! We enjoyed the inlet to Burt Lake for how quiet it was. We kayaked and boated the inlet and lake …so easy to dock right at the cottage! Enjoyed roasting marshmallow at her gas fire pit. Close to Mackinac Island and Petoskey. Perfect getaway for us! We will be back.

We had an amazing stay. The home is very comfortable and clean. Waking up to the view of the lake was wonderful. Would definitely recommend staying here.

I asked my 9, 8 & 5 year old about the best part of our stay, and they all agreed that the hot tub, fire pit for s’mores and the board games were the best part. I enjoyed having a quiet space to get homework done with a view of the water. This was the perfect get away for a family of 5! We enjoyed staying inside, cooking meals & enjoying the house itself. It is beautiful inside and out, exactly like the photos and had everything we needed for our stay. We can’t wait to come back during the summer time to go out on the lake!

Jessica is an amazing host. There were so many extras. We loved the kayaks and canoe that they were kind enough to let us use. Spent most of our day in the water. Very clear water. Kid friendly. A zillion stars at night and coffee with the pretty Sunrise. We were ages 3 to 64 and all had a blast. We never wanted to leave. Fast response to questions. Easy check in. Easy to find. Clean. Had everything you need to cook. Many fun places near to explore. We even fished for Salmon. We highly recommend and would love to come back. You will not be sorry if you stay. Thank you Thank you

The mist clearing on the lake in the morning sun reveals the changing colors of trees in the Fall Season. At night, the constellations sparkle strongly and clearly in the dark sky. And the sounds of silence increase the sense of peace and wonder. This is what you can experience whether sitting around a lakeside fire or sitting in the front room of the cottage. And making a home cooked meal is a pleasure as well...the kitchen supports good cooking and the dining room table supports warm and interesting conversations. Thanks, Leanne

The house was nicely decorated & looked like the pictures in the listing. We loved all the rooms. Scott was very responsive & accommodating. The family had a great time. We would love to use it again in the summer to explore the lake and nearby towns.

The place was great, we had 8 people and all slept comfortably.

We had the best time staying at Renee and Claudia’s, there was an insane snow store and it was difficult to get in the night we arrived. Literally within the hour they had the drive to the cabin plowed and the cabin driveway plowed. It was a peaceful and wonderful week. Will definitely be back next year!! Thank you!!

We needed a quiet cabin near the Aloha State Park where our son and 5 grandkids were camping The drive to the park was about 20 minutes. The cabin was well supplied and quiet. We did have issues with the WiFi and Alena responded quickly The cabin was clean and comfortable with a good view of Mullet Lake

Memory maker is a beautiful place in Elk Rapids. Peaceful, in front of the lake, excellent location to spend time with a small group of friends/family and 30 minutes away from Traverse city. Really charming and had all amenities for a quick getaway. Even in frosty temperatures, the place looks like a safe heaven.

What a beautiful home and perfect for a little weekend getaway! The stunning views, great location and cozy space made us feel right at home. We normally stay in the heart of TC when we visit, but we are so glad we decided to stay with Carlie. The home has all the necessary amenities and more.

This was our fourth stay. We fell in love with the place and visit every year. Its perfect. Its very comfortable. Super cozy. The view of the lake out the bay window is perfect. Cheboygan has a great options for food and fun. Mackinaw is just 30 min away. You could not find better hosts. I cant reccomend this place enough.

All I can say is WOW!!!! The property was even more beautiful in person. It was absolutely gorgeous. Katy really has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. It's luxury in a secluded slice of heaven. The property was meticulous. Everything was chosen with care and attention to detail. From the linens, the pillows, the towels...to the supplies in the kitchen. The coffee bar was great. The welcome basket was wonderful with a personalized note. The games, the kayaks and paddle boards and the views!! Just outstanding! All the lighting details..the bonfire pit..the outdoor furniture. Even our dog was thought of providing towels, bowls, poop bags. Katy was wonderful to work with. She was very clear and detailed with instructions and ideas on places to eat, things to do, you name it. She was very responsive and you could tell she really cared about our stay. The hot tub was a bonus!! Even the bathroom was gorgeous!!! We LOVED our stay!!!

Great place and location. The house was cozy and well appointed. It is an older home and comes with quirks. If you are familiar to "up north" cabins this will not be a matter to consider at all. If you are used to champagne and canopy beds and you know who you are look elsewhere like maybe out of state. I have nothing bad to say about this place. You will love it!

The Hawk’s Nest was the best stay! First off, the cabin was incredible! Thoughtfulness and attention to detail throughout the cabin. We stayed for just a quick weekend but wished we could have stayed longer and definitely plan to go back! Hosts provided a detailed list of all sorts of local recommendations. They also checked in and it was super clear that their goal was for us to be completely satisfied with our stay! We loved it!

Was a very beautiful and peaceful place in the woods. The hot tub was super clean, very cozy fireplace area, and the whole set up was just gorgeous. We had a really great experience! We also loved how they are stocked with all the essentials like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, q-tips, and everything you would need. The host was very helpful and responded fast.

Cozy Cabin was exactly that, including its great location. It fit our winter needs for our mini vacation perfectly with all that snow!! Lauri was pleasant to talk with as well!

N.M. was a wonderful host. Very helpful and responsive! The adjustable room temperature was great as each guest could set the temp to their liking, loved that. The house was cozy and the hot tub was an amazing bonus to our low key girls weekend away. We bumped into one of their neighbors on the private drive and they were very friendly as well. A great area in the woods while being close to town! We will be back!
