Gwinn- Little Lake - Pristine Lakeside Home. Great all season getaway!
Just steps away from sandy frontage, lies this home in the beautiful north woods of Northern Michigan. Northern Lights are easily viewed from the deck. Three bedrooms and two baths, plus a lovely open kitchen and living room, provide plenty of room for wonderful family gatherings. Dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer offer convenient living amenities. A deck, fire pit, standup paddle board, canoe, kayaks, and dock allow for easy lake access. The lake is known for great swimming, fishing and boating. The lake is a 400 acre lake with two islands. Sandbars are available near the islands for docking boats and swimming. Mehl Lake is accessible via an inlet by small boats. The lake is stocked with walleye, though bass and smaller pan fish are abundant. Boat launch is close by. Less than a mile from the house is a snowmobile and four-wheeling trail. Twenty minutes to Marquette and 60 minutes to Pictured Rocks. Pet Friendly!

Didn’t see Bigfoot or the Northern Lights, but we enjoyed the house and the area. The house was well insulated and airtight. I enjoyed cooking in well stocked kitchen.
We had a wonderful time at Little Lake. The house was clean, very well-stocked and perfect for our two families (bunk room for teen boys, plus a king room and a queen room). The owners were super responsive with my minor questions.
We had a great stay on Little Lake. The home is quiet and clean with plenty of room for adults and kids. The lake is wonderful, clean and sandy. We loved having use of the kayaks and canoe. This place is close enough to fun and entertainment but feels very secluded and restful. Would highly recommend for families!
We had a wonderful time at Little Lake. We pretty much had the lake to ourselves. We enjoyed kayaking, star gazing, campfire, playing games and doing puzzles. We took a few day trips to Munising, Marquette and Houghton. We appreciated the snacks from the hosts . The house and location were perfect!
Being able to be outside on the deck and looking at the beautiful lake was amazing! The hosts were generous with water equipment and fire pit supplies and were overall extremely responsive.
We had a wonderful time. The house looks to be recently renovated and is very cute and nicely decorated. The kitchen was stocked and there was even wood for the fire pit. They even provide marshmallows, chocolate & graham crackers to make smores! It was very clean, check in and out was easy, the house was centrally located, easy to find & right on the lake!. We will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful time. The house layout was perfect for what we needed. Great deck, cool lake, and a lot of fun with in range of driving. We will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful week at this lakeside cabin with our two children. The cabin was clean and well-appointed, and furnished with everything needed. The lake was beautiful and serene, and a great place to unwind. The location was perfect for taking side trips around the UP, such as to Marquette and Munising, and nearby hiking trails. Owners were very responsive and communicative throughout!

Out of a 5 scale, Location (4.5), Setting (4.0), Lake a bit shallow, but quiet (4.0), Home (modular) is showing ware (4.0) Furnishings, also showing wear, (3.5), Hosts (4.5), very responsive.
The property was so nice! The kids had a blast swimming in the lake and loved using the longboard that was there. The house is beautiful, supplied with lots of kitchen utensils, and plenty of space for the 4 of us. We made a fire in the fire pit but didn’t stay outside long since mosquitoes were so bad.
Everything was perfect except the mosquitoes were plentiful! Lol.
We still had a very nice time and loved that it’s a private location…quiet, peaceful, and lovely.
We spent 3 days and really enjoyed it. The house was immaculate. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Looking out over the lake every morning was so relaxing.
Didn't have time for fishing as we were on a mission to see color changes. It was beautiful up north. Especially h58 highway between munising and grand maris. October 17 to 20. We hit the peak just right. Also had fun finding water falls and cool rocks. Couldn't ask for a better time. We definately would stay here again.
The somewhat remote location right on the lake is nice. It would be great for kids, with a small but mostly flat waterfront. The lake appears to have a sandy bottom, and at the end of the pier it was probably only a couple feet deep, so nice for younger kids. The deck has plenty of furniture for quite a few people.
The house was ok, note it is a manufactured or prefab home. The kitchen is a nice size and the living room furniture is newer. There is a nice tray of items for s'mores, and some treats, which is nice. Location is good for exploring, about an hour from Pictured Rocks. It’s between 2.5 hour drive to Porcupine Mountain and Copper Harbor.
On the other hand, there is deferred maintenance that needs to be done (burnt bulbs, including microwave which makes stovetop cooking a bit harder, towel holder coming off wall, broken stopper in sink, taped on tile trim in bath, horribly loud fan in bathroom, etc.). It would be nice to have a welcome binder as most places do, with info about location, local restaurants, wifi code (told to locate it on bottom of router), etc. just to make it more convenient for guests.
The property was perfect for our short trip up north. We had everything we needed, including all the water toys. Dave and Gina were perfect hosts with great communication. Thank you!
The house is perfect for any occasion. Cleanliness A+. It does say in the amenities that there is air conditioning. There is not, but there were many fans to use. The lake is gorgeous, house very spacious, and met all expectations. We will definitely be back.
This location was fantastic for our annual family fun ice fishing weekend. The owner was easy to work with; the house was clean and all of the amenities needed were available.
Property was spacious enough for our group, we loved the open space in the kitchen to the living room. Close to excellent snowmobile trail. It was perfect for us! We will definitely be back!
