2 Bedroom House in Elk Rapids

Please enjoy our quaint crooked little 1885 cottage that was the carriage house for the historic house across the road. Updating completed Fall 2019 with new flooring, cabinets, appliances, windows and bathroom fixtures. We are 100 yards from the beach, river and park. Two blocks to great eateries, Shorts Brewery, and quaint shopping downtown. 10 miles to Flintfields Equestrian Park in Williamsburg, or our many inland lakes, and 18 miles to Traverse City.
Location, location, location is what the Crooked Cottage is all about! Close enough to walk to the beach, marina, dinner, theater, and quaint shopping. Centrally located for fun trips to Traverse City, Frankfort, Suttons Bay, Northport, Leland, Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, Bellaire, Charlevoix, Petoskey, Boyne City, Harbor Springs, Mackinac Island, State Parks and the many beaches along the way. So whether you want to just stay and enjoy, or pack in as much sightseeing as you can, this is the spot!
Decorated to inspire with great art and happy colors, the decor is an eclectic mix of styles using old painted furniture and mid century modern. Everything (except the beds and bedding) have come from REclecTia, an upscale consignment store in Traverse City, . There is a huge yard so bring your fun yard toys. The front porch is great in any weather, there is even an electric fireplace to take the chill off if need be. For those who love to cook, the kitchen is well equipped and the gas grill on the back deck could cook up that lake trout or salmon you caught on your charter trip. Equipped with all the comforts to relax and get away! There is a TV, but it is our hope that you will come away from that, and enjoy spending your down time with friends and family and everything our area has to offer.
