About this cottage rental
On the south shore of Pratt Lake, in the community of Gladwin, MI sits our fun filled red 2BR lodge style cottage with granite counters in kitchen and knotty pine throughout on 50 feet of water frontage. Pack your swimsuits cause you will need it as the sandy beach is great to swim and play. Pratt lake is great for your skiboat, waterskis, tubes, pontoon, kayaks or jet skis to play on all of the 180 acres Pratt Lake offers! Relax at the picnic table or sit and gaze at the lake from the deck. Grab a book and read in the sand. Enjoy the beach and great views of Pratt Lake. Pack your 'Smores' for the outdoor fire pit. Fish from the 40 foot dock. Public boat launch down the street to launch all of your toys. Plenty of room to secure your boat on the dock. Canoe and Row boat included for use. Clear water - great swimming. Water depth at our shoreline increases gradually - good for children (we have 4, so its actively used!). Firm, clean bottom. If you like to fish there is good pan fish, bass, and pike fishing. A few walleyes are caught each year as well. If the fishing is tough, take a trip to downtown Gladwin and hit the trout pond! Light boat traffic except on holiday weekends. Our cottage was built in the 20s and was one of the original cabins on Pratt Lake. It has a full kitchen with granite and dishwasher with all of the pots/pan/cookware amenities, 1 full bath room with tile floor, a large living room, lodge style knotty pine walls. Dark bamboo hardwood floors. There are three queen beds along with one sleeper sofa. Very open kitchen/ dining/sun room view looks out over beautiful views of the Lake.
Awesome sand bar to park your boat for a relaxing stop in the lake.
Enjoy 1000s of acres of state land within miles of quiet paved roads ideal for cycling, ATV, hunting or walking. Canoe around the lake at dusk for great wildlife viewing. Look for our breeding pair of bald eagles or listen to the loons on early Pratt lake mornings. Look out at the point and you may see our local deer enjoying the water.
Golfing within 10-15 minutes. 5 minutes to the public library.
6 miles to downtown Gladwin for shopping, 30 miles to Houghton Lake, Midland and West Branch. 2.5 hrs from both the greater Detroit and Grand Rapids suburbs. Excellent ice cream store with the Gladwin famous “Pigs Platter” within 4 miles that can’t be missed!

This house worked great for our family. The beach was great for our grandson and the dock worked good for our boat. It was quite warm when we stayed there, we knew it would be so we brought some fans because we knew the house did not have air conditioning. There were a couple of fans there when we got there and the day after we got there Thomas had 4 more fans delivered to help keep us cool. We all had a great time!4 more fans were delivered to help keep us cool
