About this house rental
**New photos of bedrooms coming soon**
This 4-bedroom, pet-friendly home on the private shores of Cathead Bay is filled with original abstract sculptures by a Michigan artist — bold, colorful work that gives the space a personality you won't find anywhere else on the peninsula. Steps from your own private sandy beach on one of northern Michigan's most coveted bays. For guests who want more than a rental — The Art House is an experience.
The Art House earns its name. Original abstract sculptures in vivid, unexpected color are woven throughout the home — the work of a Michigan artist, collected with intention. The result is a space that's warm and livable but genuinely distinctive: bold without being loud, eclectic without being chaotic. The kind of place that makes you slow down and actually look at your surroundings.
The open living area flows naturally to the deck and private Cathead Bay beach beyond — easy movement between inside and out as the day unfolds.
