Affectionately called “The Red Cottage,” this charming well-loved and maintained waterfront cottage has been in the same family for over 100 years. Located in desirable Mullett Lake Village on the "Golden Mile" it has 41 feet of lakefront footage and is ready for swimming, boating, water skiing and all that life on the water has to offer. The cottage has knotty pine walls throughout, giving it a warm and cozy feel. The original stone fireplace has been converted to gas. The kitchen is roomy with ample storage. Improvements include the addition of a master bedroom suite on the main level and an expanded living room in the front. The upper level has five bedrooms: one large suite, one smaller suite, three additional bedrooms and another large bath. The laundry area is also located upstairs. There is a detached 1 1\2 car garage which includes an upstairs game room (with plumbing) that could be converted into an apartment. The cottage is close to the active Mullett Lake Country Club and its semi-private 9-hole golf course. You can easily hop on the popular “Rails to Trails” hiking trail which is accessed just across the street. For boating needs, a local marina is not far away and a short drive to Cheboygan will take you to town shopping and restaurants. Take advantage of this rare opportunity to summer on beautiful Mullett Lake with your kids and grandkids and build your own family memories.
(Property may be purchased either furnished or unfurnished.)

What the owner loves about this home
This family cottage is basically the same it has been for many years keeping the homey ambiance alive. Days are spent on the water or relaxing in the front yard or on the porch. At night it’s hard to beat the moon over Mullett Lake and listening to the waves while sitting around the fire pit roasting marshmallows. The neighbors are fellow lake-lovers who meet up for casual visits and events. This historic, unique cottage is much more than special - it's "home".
