Cozy Country at Cedar Cottage- Across from Otter Lake.

Come kick back at Cedar Cottage in Otter Lake!

Relax with the family at this peaceful old home. Cedar Cottage -aka 2Cs-our latest acquisition in quaint Village of Otter Lake. Across the street from Otter Lake where you can access the beach, picnic area, & lake. Kayaks available. Trails- hiking & ATVs.
Equipped kitchen, living room, dining, porch, & backyard w/ firepit & games. Sleeps up to 7. Dog friendly.

Time to RELAX!
The space
2Cs is an over 100 years old remodeled cottage. Two bedrooms (1. king-size, 2. three twins) with 2 baths. Fully equipped kitchen, living room, dining room, porch, and backyard with firepit and yard games. It sleeps 7 comfortably. Games and smart TVs are provided. Store & bar/grill a couple doors down. Conveniently located less than a half of hour drive to Lapeer, Frankenmuth, or Birch Run.
Guest access
Guests have the full cottage and yard for use. Also you have access to Otter Lake- all sports lake with beach, dock, picnic area, and playground. Please note- property is not directly on the lake.

Enjoy the sunrise with the perfect cup of coffee or wind down in the evenings on the front porch or backyard with a gas grill, tables and chairs for outdoor dining, lawn games, and a fire pit to roast some s’mores. Lots to do in this quaint community. Go for a hike or bike ride on the Southern trail. Relax on the beach right across the street or the Holloway Reservoir and Buttercup Beach is only a short drive. Blueberry picking is another option. This is not just a summer getaway- we have something for everyone year-round. The fall brings beautiful sights with all the trees in full glorious color. In the winter, there are trails for ATVing and cross-country skiing, and a lake for fishing and ice-skating. Perhaps, spend rainy days in the rocker, watching the Smart TV for movie night or your favorite sports, ...or maybe playing one of the many board games that are provided.

Weekend trip

My family and I stayed here for a weekend roadtrip and had a great stay. The house is as advertised, it was clean and the host was responsive and very friendly. The town is super cute with a nice spot to fish and swim. Short drive to Frankenmuth with plenty of antique shops along the way. I would definitely stay here again.
