Spider Lake Cottage – Major 2026 Upgrades! Your chance to own on one of Traverse City’s premier all-sports lakes is back—and it’s better than ever. After immense interest last season, the sellers spent the winter bringing this charming cottage to total turnkey status with a brand-new roof, furnace, water heater, and more! Now, the mechanicals are up to par with the spectacular setting. Come on back and take a second look. You'll be glad you did. Tucked at the end of a private lane on a quiet point, the property boasts 118 feet of private frontage on a peaceful no-wake bay—perfect for swimming and paddling—with instant channel access to the main all-sports portion of the lake. Property Highlights: Main-Floor Living: 3 bedroom, 2 bath spacious layout featuring a private primary suite on one end and two comfortable guest bedrooms on the other. Lakeside Gathering Spaces: A roomy kitchen flows into the waterside dining area or the cozy living room with a gas fireplace—all opening to a broad, sun-drenched deck overlooking the water. Storage & Parking: Ample parking and a detached 2-car garage to securely store your boat, vehicle, and lake toys. Outdoor Enthusiast’s Dream: Located on the desirable east side, you are steps from thousands of acres of public trails (hiking, biking, skiing, snowmobiling) and minutes from fly fishing on the Boardman River.
