This four- bedroom, two bath, two story house sleeps 9, sits on 8 acres of land and has 200 feet of lake frontage. Flanked by woods on both sides for privacy, the property has huge lawns front and back for visitors to enjoy. The area fronting the lake is bisected by a gravel road that gives postal access to this house and 3 others further east. It does not impact the beautiful view or the amount of space for lawn games and lake access. The open floor plan and cathedral ceilings on the ground floor, with a wall of large windows facing the lake, make this vacation home a light, airy and beautiful place to stay. Furnished with Northwoods decor, other attractive features include walk-out balconies facing the lake in the upstairs bedrooms and a loft area that provides extra sleeping capacity. There is a fully-equipped kitchen with an island and a dining table that seats 8 to 10 comfortably. There is a bar off the living room which has a wood-burning stove (as it's sole source of heat for that 1 room) and offers another gathering place to entertain friends and family. Water conservation at the cottage is not only nice, it is essential. Please be aware that you will lose water pressure if both showers are in use, along with the washing machine and the dishwasher. This home does have a well and the pump will replenish what has been used. However, the pressure will be minimal until it has filled back up, usually about 15 minutes. Larks Lake is 25 miles from beautiful Petoskey, a popular area for tourists in the summer, located on Little Traverse Bay. Wonderful and unique Mackinac Island is a short trip north. The area boasts ski resorts and golf courses for year-round fun. Bring your own pontoon! The boat launch is a mile away and you can keep your boat at our dock for the length of your stay. The lake itself is 600 acres of quiet, shallow and pristine northern Michigan. After a full day of boating, fishing, or playing lawn games your group will love campfires under the stars and evenings listening to the loons. Whether you seek summer boating and fishing, or autumn colors and crisp nights, or winter skiing and cozy amenities, this year-round house is the perfect place for your next get-away. \*\*Preventative actions to avoid swimmer's itch -- 1\. Use a waterproof sunscreen, baby oil, or waterproof insect repellent before swimming. 2\. Briskly towel off after swimming. If you do get swimmer's itch, use a cortisone cream to relieve the itching. The reaction subsides within a few days. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Air Conditioning: This home does not have air conditioning, however, it has multiple ceiling fans throughout.

This was great for our family of 6! Lots of space to spread out if we wanted, but cozy enough to be all together too. It had everything we needed for all the cooking we wanted to do. The swing by lake was a favorite spot of ours. Response time from the owners when we had a small issue was timely. ##### Regina L.

Convenient stores are about 7-25 minute drives. 25 minute drives to Mackinac City and Petoskey. Would definitely return for another getaway ##### William M.

This property was very nice. It was easy to rent, and work with the property manager. We loved all the activities there was at the house. My family had a lot of fun. And the view was fantastic! The only downfall is that we went during June and the house doesn’t have Air conditioning or any window units, so it gets very warm during the day in the house, even with all the fans going and windows open. Overall I would definitely recommend this house! ##### Lexi L.

There were two families with kids and there was plenty of room for everyone. There were alot of outdoor activities that we weren't able to do because of the weather, those would make a summer stay here even more enjoyable. We still took out the canoe and paddleboat and made a couple of trips out onto the lake. Overall we had a great time. Especially liked the bar area, where the adults were able to have a fire and play shuffleboard over some drinks. ##### Daniel H.

We purchased new inflatable paddle boards and learned how to use them and when we fell off were able to walk to shore (we found larks lake to be fairly shallow all over). We also loved exploring the paddle boat and kayak out on the lake (we didn't try the canoe or the water mat). On cooler days we loved the indoor games. We loved the fans and the clothes line. ##### carolyn n.

The lake is beautiful. The house was very clean and spacious. the grounds were beautiful. We enjoyed our stay. This property is located quite a long distance from a grocery store, at least an hour from the south and close to 45 minutes or an hour to the north. One issue I had is small, but still notable for us. The listing advertised that laundry detergent and dish detergent was suppied for listings with those facilities, so I did not buy any on our trip to the grocery store before arrival. When we arrived I found 2 pods of laundry detergent and 2 pods of dishwasher detergent and a nearly empty bottle of dish soap. This would be for 7 guests and a 4-night stay. Not nearly enough detergent, especially since we were asked to, upon our departure, run a load of towels and run the dishwasher!! The oven also smoked when we started it because it needed to be cleaned. I suggest that if the listing says that dish detergent and laundry detergent is provided, that enough be provided for at LEAST one load a day at the bare minimum, especially since it is not convenient to run out and grab detergent because there isn't anywhere close by to buy it. ##### Jennifer B.

The views outside the window were stunning. Check-in was smooth, and we were able to check in sooner than the designated check-in time. Being that we were traveling with 3 kiddos, and had a 7 hour drive, it was SUPER convenient so get in the house an hour earlier instead of spending another hour in the car. Will definitely return! ##### Gerda M.
