Experience the best of Northern Michigan in this attractive, meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 1.5 bath waterfront home on the Crooked River. Located along Michigan's famous Inland Waterway, the property provides boating access to Crooked Lake, Burt Lake, Mullett Lake, and onward to Lake Huron. The updated cottage offers comfortable living with a separate family room and a two-car garage. Outdoors, thoughtful landscaping showcases approximately 100 feet of river frontage, creating an inviting setting for relaxing and entertaining. If the deck was any closer to the river, your feet would be wet. Enjoy dinner on the spacious stone patio, gather around the separate fire pit for evening barbecues and marshmallow roasts, or head out on the water from the private boat well-large enough to accommodate a pontoon boat. Conveniently located near Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Indian River, this waterfront retreat also offers easy access to area golf courses and premier skiing at The Highlands at Boyne Mountain and Nub's Nob.
