Tucked-Away Treasure on Lake Missaukee Tucked into the serene embrace of Clayton Harbor Bay, this storybook 3-bedroom, 1-bath cottage is where lakefront dreams come to life. With 61 feet of private, sandy shoreline, you’ll begin your mornings with coffee by the calm water and end your evenings beneath stars and firelight. Step into a sun-drenched living and dining area where a large sliding door opens to a charming covered porch — your front-row seat to the lake’s gentle rhythms. The main level offers a cozy bedroom and full bath, while upstairs, two more guest rooms await, ready to host generations of memories. Outside, a spacious yard invites barefoot games, summer picnics, and laughter-filled afternoons. A detached two-stall garage with a rear lakeside door keeps your lake gear close at hand. The dock is included — just bring the boat and you're ready to explore Lake Missaukee’s 1,880 acres of clear, sandy-bottom all-sports water. Beyond your own beach, discover everything that makes this Northern Michigan location so special. Cruise into town and tie up at the city dock to enjoy restaurants, boutique shops, or a scoop from the beloved Tasty Treat. Take a day trip to Traverse City, Lake Michigan, or nearby ski resorts, or hit the miles of surrounding ORV trails for four-season adventure. Come July, drop anchor at the west-end sandbar or watch the spectacular "Greatest Fourth in the North" fireworks from your boat. Whether you're casting a line off your private dock, basking in the sunshine, or gathering around the fire with loved ones, this cottage delivers everything you imagine in a classic lakefront escape. This isn’t just a home — it’s a lifestyle steeped in peace, play, and lasting connection. Most furnishings are negotiable, making it easier than ever to start your lakeside story the moment you arrive.
