Enjoy your vacation at peaceful Lakefront Chalet!

The lakefront chalet is located on peaceful Lake Louise in Johannesburg. We invite you to come and enjoy the serenity of the lake. You have two decks to choose from. One located out the back door of the chalet and the other is a large lake side deck that's great for soaking up the sun. We also have a horseshoe pit, fire pit, four kayaks and a paddle boat for your enjoyment. We are just minutes from Gaylord's downtown "Alpine Village" where you'll find shops, restaurants and summer/winter festivals. Gaylord is know as Michigan's golf mecca and we are smack dab in the middle of the snow belt so if your looking to hit the trails or the slopes you won't be disappointed. Great trails for hiking located with in minutes. Get here and enjoy everything Northern Michigan has to offer!

Beautiful & CLEAN Chalet!
Dawn, the host of property went above to make sure we had everything we needed for a successful family New Year's vacation! The chalet was very clean upon arrival & tastefully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with every utensil needed to cook a meal. 10 OUT OF 10!

Christmas at the cabin
The cabin was very nice. It was difficult to keep the floors from getting so dirty because the area in front of the door was dirt sand. It would’ve been nicer to have more rocks there gravel so that you didn’t track so much sand and dirt in Dawn is a wonderful host. The lake is beautiful and in the summer I’m sure it’s delightful to spend time down at the lake. It was decorated beautifully, and the additional decorations for Christmas were very nice and very much appreciated.

Perfect little cottage on the water
This cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. It felt private even though there were other houses near by. It was a quiet neighborhood. The view of the fall colors and the lake off the back porch were beautiful!

PERFECT!
My husband and I enjoy taking a long weekend in the fall to see the colors. This cabin was perfect. It’s quaint and cozy and everything is just right. The bed is comfy. There’s plenty of pots and pans for cooking. The view of the lake is fabulous. Everything about the cabin was perfect! So very glad we found it!! Many thanks to the owners for keeping such a lovely place.

Relaxing lake cabin!
Had a wonderful time! The beds are incredibly comfy, the kitchen is well equipped, the entire place is immaculately clean and well maintained, and the lake is beautiful! The wifi and smart tvs are perfect for streaming, the property feels private and secluded while being located in a charming little neighborhood perfect for going on runs or relaxing walks. Check in and out was a breeze, and communication with the hosts was easy and prompt. No complaints whatsoever, highly recommend!
