Escape to the lake in this one-of-a-kind cottage, creatively built around an antique Airstream camper and thoughtfully remodeled from the studs out. Full of character and modern comfort, this charming retreat offers a sleeping loft, remodeled bathroom, and efficient galley kitchen. The living room enjoys beautiful views of the lake and has hardwood floors, with wood ceilings for the Up North vibe —perfect for weekend getaways, summer living, or a memorable lake retreat. Step outside onto the expansive lakeside composite deck and enjoy 66 feet of private lake frontage with beautiful water views and plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, or soaking up the sunshine. A 12' x 16' garden shed provides excellent storage for lake toys or outdoor equipment. Located immediately next to the neighborhood lakefront beach, the property enjoys added privacy and expansive views from the extra lake frontage where no one will build. Six Mile Lake is an all-sports lake on Antrim County’s Upper Chain-of-Lakes, offering opportunities for boating, fishing, swimming, and enjoying all that lake life has to offer. It is centrally located within an hour of northern Michigan’s most popular destinations, golf and ski resorts and hiking/biking trail systems. Whether you’re looking for a distinctive vacation getaway or a cozy lakeside escape, this charming cottage delivers character, comfort, and an exceptional waterfront setting. Best of all, it is being offered furnished, so you can unpack your bags and start enjoying it from day one.
