Vacation rentals with lake access in Antrim County

You have a very nice and cozy place! We very much enjoyed our stay. The views were beautiful! Thank you.

You will instantly fall in love with the quiet lakefront beauty and the breath-taking and welcoming home just 60 or so feet from the water. The main floor of the house is close to lake level making the drama of nature around you compelling and inspiring. The waterfront and waves lapping the stone and sand shore are visible from almost all the rooms of the house, and it's a short walk to River Street in Elk Rapids. Traverse Magazine readers voted River Street "in the top 10 of ‘Sweet Small-Town Main Streets in Northern Michigan.'” The pace of life is calming in this lovely town and in this beautiful home. Owner Bernadette and property manager Sam make you feel perfectly at home. Response time to messages is instant, polite, and friendly. There's so much enjoyment to be had for all ages here.

This property is flat out amazing! The pictures do not do this place justice. The layout of the house is perfect for a family vacation with plenty of space all over the house! Game room is amazing with the theater seating and huge TV, the deck is a great place to lounge, walk out door on the ground floor is a nice touch, rooms have a nice view of the lake. The house is very clean and has everything that you need. Yes, the house is amazing, but David made this stay a one of a kind. I asked a lot of questions and he was patient, understanding, and welcoming as a host from start to finish. Communication with David was very clear and concise. Thank you again David for making this vacation one that we will never forget! We will definitely be coming back to stay at one of your properties!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It is an absolute treat having our boat right outside at the dock. We loved listening to the loons. Mark, the property manager is super helpful (thank you!). The property is clean, clutter free, and the house is stocked very well with essentials. Michael accommodated a special request I had for our stay during booking and I really appreciated the opportunity. We would love to stay here again! My only complaint is the trip went by too fast!

Have nothing bad to say, only great things. Great location, cleansiness, and response timing was amazing and quick. Will recommend to others!

My husband and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend here. Beds were super comfortable and linens/ pillows and all bedding was really clean and nice. The house was extremely comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Our coffee was exceptional-the water perhaps?? I would (and hope to) stay again.

We've stayed here several times and the accommodations work well for our family of mixed ages. This trip we went snowshoeing daily and explored several nearby parks. We hope to return next winter.

We had an awesome time at Matt’s place. Host was super helpful and communication was top notch! We will be back next year. Thank you!!! 5 ⭐️

Great spot in a quiet little town on the water

It was absolutely beautiful. The trees had just changed colors and it was such a nice view! It was quiet and private. During business hours, you can hear the wine tasting room but that didn’t bother me at all. We stopped in and the staff were super friendly and helpful. So happy to have visited. Highly recommend!

Very cozy and great location right next to Shanty Creek Resort Hotel and very easy to get downtown Bellaire. You can either catch a ride to Schuss on the free bus transportation from the resort or take a quick drive. Overall great place for a romantic get a way!

We enjoyed our stay while in town to ski. Easy walking distance to restaurants for a person that enjoys walking, even in the cold. Thanks for letting us stay in your cute airbnb!! Don and Jill

We loved visiting the beautiful Shanty Creek. Our condo was clean, very comfortable, had everything we needed, and accurately described. I would definitely recommend!!

We could not be happier with our stay in East Jordan. We had a family wedding to attend at our very old family cottage and we were less than 10 minutes from the site of the wedding. Gloria was very helpful when we had trouble getting the Wi-Fi and did not give up until it was rectified. If we ever need to find a place near to our Michigan cottage again, we will definitely try to stay at this AirB&B again.

We loved being right in the heart of it all - walking distance to the beach, the marina, plus the many eateries in the downtown area. The space was clean and quaint and we were pleasantly surprised that there was a small sun porch we could sit in to drink our coffee and watch passersby. We were planning to eat out so it was no trouble for us that this studio was not equipped for any cooking. We did have a nice mini fridge with a freezer for drinks and snacks. As soon as we arrived in town we watched the sunset at the marina and saw the northern lights immediately afterward! Guess it just worked out that night. Stacy was excellent with communication both by phone call and text. The shower was nice and hot but be aware there is a curtain dividing the bathroom rather than an actual door. Would highly recommend WaterFire winery a short 10 minute drive away. We love all of the water views in the area and walking to everything so we would be pleased to stay here again.

Place was well organized, stocked with amenities. I even read some books they had lying around. Very convenient and peaceful to get away.

Beautiful place. Neat clean and well stocked. Great host. Highly recommend.

Probably the best Airbnb experience we have ever had. John and his wife were kind and quick to respond to our questions. While they live on the property, we did not see them at all during our stay. The water front makes it extremely enjoyable and the lake is quiet. They checked in with us and always made sure we had everything we needed. We will absolutely be back to this rental, hopefully for longer next time!

We loved Charlys’s place! It was a charming home and very accommodating for pets. We would definitely stay here again!

Great, quite location. Well equipped and clean. Our dog loved the big yard to run while we relaxed on the nice deck. It's very dark at night, take a big basket for all the stars. Loved it, thanks Michelle

Mari’s place was perfect for what we needed. We stayed during the fall season. We go up every year for our late son’s birthday and usually stay in the northeast area. Since he passed in 2022 from cancer we have found that we have peace and enjoy creating new memories in his honor. This year we took our exchange student with us. Our 17 year old daughter loves this trip and looks forward to it. It’s a tradition created from sadness but with the intent of never feeling sorry for ourselves and only creating new and beautiful memories in honor of our boy who loved life and never felt sorry for himself. So thank you Mari for opening up your home and becoming a part of our yearly tradition of how we celebrate our son Nathan’s birthday: he would have been 17 this year. The house was small, cozy, and clean. The view of the water was beautiful. The sunrise shining across the lake in the morning enhances the fall foliage. It was perfect ♥️

Gorgeous lake property! The cabin is so cute and rustic, and definitely conveys the peaceful simplicity of days gone by. The kitchen amenities are good since we ate in many nights. The bedrooms are spaced nicely apart, were clean, comfortable and the kids especially loved the bunks with the wide assortment of books and games! It doesn't have a TV - which is a good thing - so we just used out ipads and connected to the WIFI for those times when the kids were tuckered out and just needed some quiet time. It's a great location and walkable to downtown Alden. The sunsets are stunning with lots of seating and tables outside to enjoy! Chris is very friendly and super responsive and when I sent messages, he immediately responded. A great host!! We thoroughly enjoyed our week on Torch!! (We also rented a pontoon from Chris which worked out great since we were able to enjoy the sandbar at the South end of the lake).

Great place to unwind and relax! Ellsworth Lake is such a beautiful spot and holds many memories for our family.

We spent a great weekend at this house! It's exactly as described.
