Photos and Description of this Bay View holiday house Waterfront 5BR 2.5BA Cottage on Lake Michigan in Bay View

Our Northern Michigan cottage, 'WillAdele', is located on the quietest, most scenic street in Bay View — and is truly on the water! The views of the bay are spectacular. A winding path leads across the lawn to the beach, where we maintain a large sandy area where children can build castles and where people can sort their Petoskey stones. There are no bluffs to climb---Little Traverse Bay (Lake Michigan) is right in front of the cottage. The cottage, which has been in our family for over half-a-century, was built in 1894 and features five bedrooms and 2 ½ baths. We have worked hard to maintain “the old” in ways where it is interesting, but to modernize where it counts. The best of “the old” is the front porch. It is crowded with old wicker rockers and benches and is a people-magnet. You will undoubtedly enjoy the sunsets from this wonderful spot.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Bay View, USA

The cottage sleeps ten adults in comfortable twin beds in the four upstairs bedrooms. The downstairs bedroom has a king bed. Another special feature of WillAdele is parking. There is easy and ample parking for six cars. Parking is at the back door of the cottage, accessed by a paved road known as Wesley’s Alley. Glen’s Market (large grocery store) and other shopping is easily accessible using back roads without ever having to enter the busy highway. We commonly walk to do our daily grocery shopping.

The Little Traverse Wheelway (paved biking/hiking trail, which runs from Harbor Springs to Charlevoix, passes just a few yards from the rear of the cottage and serves as a non-motorized link to the beach at the Petoskey State Park, to the Bay View Pier, and to shopping and sightseeing in Charlevoix, Petoskey and Harbor Springs.

Golfers - there are numerous great courses to choose from within 15 minutes, including the famed Bay Harbor course. Other publicly accessible courses include all of the Boyne courses, Little Traverse Golf Club, Crooked Tree, Hidden River Casting Club, and the list goes on.

A Soft Landing Place for a Family Reunion

patric Michigan
Review Submitted: September 13, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Entering from the kitchen, the cottage is nice, but it grows in pleasantness, ending on the wrap-around porch with a truly gorgueous bay view. Decorating in the bedrooms was mixed, in between not-quite-old-cottage and dorm room furniture. The many common rooms, although, had a pleasant color scheme and comfortable furnishings ample for full family gathering or cozy sister-to-sister talks.
The provisions at "WillAdele" were beyond expectations. The little things that you might wish you had, like the extra spices in the cupboard, TV trays, hammer, mini air compressor, were surprisingly right there. The proximity to a high quality grocery store and the bike path was also enjoyed. The washer / dryer was a real plus for extended stays.
Our family has rented other cottages on the Great Lakes and in BayView and we found this one to be the best for quietness, surf sounds, comfort, space, convenience. The cottage and it's price are well matched.

Great Cottage for a Large Family

teweret Adrian, Michigan
Review Submitted: September 6, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
This homey roomy cottage has friendly atmosphere. We filled it with 10 adults and 1 dog and had plenty of space. The owners of this property have thought of everything--plenty of blankets, towels, well stocked kitchen, wonderful furniture, books to read, 2 TVS, washer and dryer. We had a great time.
