Discover a water wonderland unlike any other on the famous Inland Waterway! A forty mile boating route connects over 40,000 acres of fresh water from Petoskey all the way to Lake Huron. Explore it all right from the shore's edge of this charming cottage situated on a low-traffic channel just off the Indian River. The cottage itself blends classic Northern Michigan charm with tasteful updates throughout. Knotty pine interior and a natural gas fireplace create a cozy ambiance newer construction cannot emulate. At the same time, the beautifully updated bathrooms, stainless steel appliances, and composite decking meet the discerning tastes of a modern buyer. Don't be fooled by the more modest footprint of this one - with two private bedrooms plus a large bunk loft area, there is plenty of room to host family and friends. A deep 3-stall car garage also offers ample space to house your boat and car alike. All this on 100' of private channel frontage, and less than a mile from the heart of Indian River. One of the true hidden gems of Northern Michigan, this community is home to a darling array of restaurants, shops, beaches, and much more! The property is also less than 5 minutes from I-75 and an easy drive to Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Pellston Regional Airport, championship golf courses, and the best skiing in the region! This is a truly exceptional opportunity to take advantage of all Northern Michigan has to offer - starting making your "up north" memories with this quintessential up north cottage.
