About this property
Island view Crooked Lake cottage, 170' frontage, best views!
Island View Point is a classic "Up North" lakefront cottage on Crooked Lake, welcoming families and travelers since the 1940s. With over 80 years of history, this charming retreat blends nostalgic character with modern comfort.
The Setting Enjoy 170 feet of pristine Crooked Lake frontage with sweeping views of the conservancy side of Oden Island and easy access to the popular Crooked Lake Sandbar. The shoreline features a rare sandy bottom, crystal-clear water, and minimal lake weeds — ideal for swimming all summer long.
The Experience Slow down and soak it in. Start your morning with coffee at sunrise while loons call across the water, then paddle a canoe or kayak around Oden Island to explore the natural surroundings. The area's rich history comes alive here — imagine vintage wooden boats cruising the narrows, kids fishing off the dock, and ski days at Nub's Nob or Boyne Highlands. When you're ready to venture out, Harbor Springs and Petoskey offer world-class dining, golf, shopping, and the chance to hunt for the iconic Petoskey Stone.
The Cottage Island View Point sleeps comfortably with 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, in-unit laundry, and a spacious deck perfect for entertaining. Recent updates include a full conversion to natural gas (2025), new roofs on all structures (2025), a high-efficiency combination boiler, and an instant hot water system — modern convenience without sacrificing the cottage's timeless appeal.
The Location Situated on a quiet street with friendly neighbors, the property is conveniently close to Harbor Springs, Petoskey, and Pellston Regional Airport — making it an easy destination for skiing, dining, shopping, or travel. We look forward to seeing you soon!
