Cozy Hubbard Lake waterfront -beautiful views, private wooded lot, fireplace

Take in gorgeous sunsets and crystal clear water from our year-round home on the eastern shore of Hubbard Lake- one of Northern Michigan’s finest inner lakes. Lounge on the private deck overlooking the lake or cozy up in front of the fireplace in the knotty pine living room. This lakefront gem has been lovingly cared for and provides privacy on a unique 1/2 acre wooded lot with mature oak and towering pine in a quiet residential setting. 100 ft. of lake frontage. The perfect "Up North" getaway any time of the year!

Home features two bedrooms with queen beds, living room with stone fireplace and two sofa beds (one queen and one twin), full kitchen, laundry room, one bathroom and a dining nook. Outdoor table, fire pit and deck (which is located down a flight of stairs toward the lake).

Quiet serene location where you can truly relax and unwind. In warm weather sit back and listen to the call of the loons, lapping waves and the whispering pines. In cold weather, curl up in front of the fire and enjoy the beautiful views!

Things to know:
Firewood is provided. There are steps down to the lake, with a deck halfway down. Please note that the steps to the lake are not maintained in the winter.

The dock is in from June through mid-September. The dock includes a large swim platform with steps to easily enter the lake. The shore is rocky, and water shoes highly recommended for swimmers. Paddle boards are available at no additional cost. Kayaks also available seasonally.

In addition to the fantastic fishing, boating and swimming on Hubbard Lake, the Cottage is conveniently located near the following:

Hiking & ORV Trails
Golf courses (White Pine National Golf Resort 10 mins; Rivers Edge 15 mins; Eagle Ridge 30 mins)
Lake Huron (20 mins)

Quality linens are provided (organic cotton sheets and bath towels- but please bring your own beach towels). Dogs are welcome (two dogs max of any size) but please keep them leashed when outside and clean up after them. We have a tie up for a dog in the backyard, the yard is not fenced.

The cottage is professionally cleaned and sanitized between visits and cleaning and sanitizing products made available to guests.

Fall Getaway
We enjoyed a great relaxing fall getaway at the Hubbard Lake house. Pockets of vibrant color were starting in the area foliage. The home has a vintage flare but is well appointed with kitchen supplies, comfortable furniture and beds. Outstanding sunset views of the lake from inside and out. We also enjoyed a warm fire on a rainy chilly day. Our dogs enjoyed the yard and a sandy beach at Huron Park in Black River not to far away. Overall we had a nice relaxing stay and we hope to return in the future. Thanks!

Peaceful place
Perfect place to take retreat from busy life. Crystal clear water, beautiful pines, quiet neighborhood and gorgeous house completed with perfect sunsets. If you want to rewind, recharge body and a brain, this is a place to stay. My wife, our German shepherd and I, enjoyed perfect week staying at Whispering pines cottage.

we had a wonderful and relaxing stay. Beds were comfortable and cabin was fully stocked with everything we could have needed. It was so nice to try the paddle boards and be able to take our family pets with us. Neighborhood was peaceful and friendly and safe to walk our dogs. We enjoyed some amazing sunsets. Communication and entry was easy to get into the cabin. Thank you for sharing your little get away with my family.

Long weekend getaway
Location was beautiful. House was in good shape but tv didn’t work. No problem. We spent time enjoying the ambiance and had a chance to unwind. Nice touch with the wine welcome. Wish the fishing was better though.

Very nice place to hang your hat
We stayed for 4 days and did some last minute ice fishing. The house was roomy with a fireplace with more than enough firewood. Beds were comfortable and the view was fantastic. I would stay again and if your looking for a summer vacation get a way this is the place.
