The house is right on the lake with a little private beach and a mooring ball for keeping your boat close to home. Host does rent kayaks, paddle boards, life vest and paddles with reservations @$50 a day for each vessel. The south end of Elk lake is extremely quiet, but a short boat ride to the famous Torch lake sand bar, fishing on Skegemog Lake, or the great little downtown of Elk Rapids. Snowmobiling, skiing, and other activities are abundant in the area as well.

Where you’ll be

Williamsburg, Michigan, United States

Sounds of the lake and wildlife. Sit on the large deck with your favorite drink and take in up north life. Relax at the beach on lounge chairs, or inquire to rent/reserve paddle boards and enjoy the clear Waters of Elk lake. Enjoy the dock and bring your boat or rent from local suppliers. A mooring ball is set to secure your water vessel. PLEASE, no boats tied to the dock.
Take In beautiful sunsets followed by smores around the campfire. A true up north experience for the whole family.

I am a northern girl who grew up in Cheboygan and Traverse City. I am very familiar with the area and can help you find the hidden gems in Northwest Michigan. I am married with 6 children and we spend every summer on Elk Lake. I love the winters here too. Its an amazing time to get out and enjoy the snow. Snowmobiling is literally in our back yard and great ski hills are a close drive.
