Escape to our waterfront 1950s renovated home on Skegemog Pt, 4 miles to boat launch, close to Torch sandbar, 10 min to Flintfield! Currently accepting monthly stays, inquire about other durations. View gorgeous sunsets from dock & spacious yard, relax by firepit, or go kayaking. Cook in fully-equipped kitchen & enjoy wildlife from deck. Tranquil setting 15 min to Traverse City. Family & dog-friendly (fee). In fall visit local wineries or orchards! In winter, snow sports & central heating await.

The space
Welcome to our charming waterfront home, a peaceful oasis nestled amidst the natural beauty of farms (including Flintfield horsepark), wineries, orchards, golf courses, and Traverse City's many other amenities. Built in 1950 and thoughtfully renovated in mid-century modern aesthetic, our home offers a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for your vacation.

Living & Dining
Step inside to find a fully equipped kitchen, complete with a refrigerator, stovetop, dishwasher, and oven – everything you need to prepare delicious meals. We've also stocked it with essential accessories to make your stay hassle-free. Gather in the cozy living area full of windows opening to water and sunset views, enjoy breakfast at the dining table for six, or head to the bonus room and chill out in one of the two egg chairs - each holds two people.

Sleeping
Our home comfortably sleeps six guests in three bedrooms: two with comfortable queen beds and one with two twin beds in a trundle. There is also a futon in the bonus room if you just need to spread out. The full bathroom features a convenient tub/shower combination. For your convenience, we provide fresh linens and strong, reliable Wi-Fi throughout the property. A washer and dryer are also available for your use.

Outdoor Space
Outside, the magic continues. Our spacious and shaded yard is perfect for games and relaxation. Enter Elk Lake and spend your days swimming and boating from our private dock, or explore the crystal-clear waters with the provided kayaks and life jackets. As evening approaches, gather around the fire pit for stories and s'mores under the stars, or enjoy an al fresco meal cooked on the gas grill at the outdoor dining set while taking in the spectacular sunset vistas. Be sure to pack your water shoes!

Location
Located just four miles from a public boat launch, bringing your own boat is a breeze. The peaceful surroundings offer a chance to reconnect with nature, with local farms, Flintfield horsepark, orchards, and plenty of wildlife to observe. When you're ready for more action, Traverse City is a short 15-minute drive away, offering a wide array of grocery stores, restaurants, charming shops, and renowned golf courses.

Off Season
In the fall and winter, the dock is removed, but don't let that stop you from touring local wineries and orchards, cozying up with the central heating and a coffee, and watching the geese migrate. You can enjoy the peaceful snowfall over the lake or even go snowmobiling on local trails. This is the place for your perfect getaway!

We look forward to hosting your Northern Michigan getaway!

Guest access
Guests have full access to the entire house, yard, dock, kayaks, life jackets, fire pit, grill, and outdoor dining set.

My dad keeps his boat in the hoist at the end of the dock, and he may need to access it from time to time while you're there, but I'll make sure to clear it with you first and ensure he parks in a convenient spot for you.

Neighbourhood highlights

Our waterfront home is located in Skegemog Point, right on the border of Elk Lake and Lake Skegemog. As with many inland lakes, we recommend water shoes due to the stony entrance to the water!

Our home is situated in a peaceful area surrounded by the beauty of local farms, (including Flintfield horsepark) and orchards. Enjoy the tranquility and the abundance of wildlife. Despite the serene setting, you're just a short drive away from the conveniences and attractions of Traverse City. Explore the vibrant downtown, indulge in local cuisine, visit wineries, or tee off at one of the many excellent golf courses. The proximity to the public boat launch offers easy access to explore the surrounding waterways. And, of course, the highlight is being a quick boat ride away from the renowned Torch Lake sandbar!
