Cranberry Lake Hideaway ~ Cozy Cottage w/ Sauna, Outdoor Shower, Kayaks, Games

Minutes from DT Rochester, Lake Orion & Romeo, enjoy that “up north” feel w/ out leaving Metro Detroit. We poured love into making our cabin cozy & unique—between the comfy beds, eclectic decor, & beautiful lake views, we hope it feels like a true retreat. Walk 5 mins to the lake to kayak, swim, or relax on the beach while the kids enjoy the playset. Rinse off in the outdoor shower, relax in the sauna or end your night around the fire pit!

Please note: our cabin was built in the 20’s so expect rustic, quirky charm.

Here is what we love most about our home!

Layout~

Interior:
Our home offers a 2 story layout. The kitchen seamlessly connects to the dining & living space offering beautiful views of Cranberry Lake. The living room features a pull out Queen bed for 2 additional guests. The two bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the stairway (each bedroom has its own stairway). The master features a Queen bed, while the other has a stackable Twin bed that be placed side by side as a King or used as 2 separate Twin beds. The second bedroom has a cozy workspace. The bathroom and laundry room are located on the first floor. *The stairways to the bedrooms are very steep. The second bedroom is a finished attic so you cannot stand up straight in all areas. Please read additional things to note below for more info*

Exterior:
Our cottage includes a spacious driveway with room for 3-4 cars and a large back patio for outdoor living. The right side of the home features the sauna, outdoor shower & fire-pit. Our home is situated just off the water with a 5-minute walk down to the lake access point/beach/dock.

A few friends and I stayed here two nights to reconnect and get away from everyday life. Cranberry Lake Hideaway was just what we needed! The lake views were immaculate, the house was cozy, and the host was available to answer the few questions we had upon arrival. There are a few "quirks" that are small but important considerations: There isn't direct lake access from the property; you need to walk about half a mile down a gravel road to get to the lake. This wasn't a big deal for us, just wasn't made clear in the listing. The oven wouldn't get up to temperature, so some of the meals we had planned needed to be adjusted at the last minute. And the lights in the house often flickered or stopped working altogether. This looks to be a relatively new build/remodel so it was somewhat disappointing to find out the hard way that it already needs repairs. Overall though, these are minor concerns and once they are addressed this will be just about the perfect place to "hideaway."
