Lake Michigamme-Grandpa Raoul’s Cottage This Old Rustic Cottage is designed with an emphasis on Rustic as a remote country cottage nestled in the hillside on the shore of beautiful Lake Michigamme. The Cottage is conveniently located a mile and a half off US 41 / M 28 and the Van Riper State Park Entrance on Marquette County's premiere body of recreational water and is very easy to find. In addition to its recent beautiful Rustic interior renovations the Cottage is well stocked and features spacious decks, 223 feet of Lake Michigamme water frontage, pebble beach swimming (we recommend water shoes), boat and fishing dock, kayaks, canoe, 2 outdoor camp fire pits (firewood supplied), wild life and eagle viewing. Just a few minutes drive up the road, Van Riper State Park provides a beautiful sandy beach. Plus, good fishing, and scenic hiking trails are just minutes away. Bring your boat, two launches are available and moor your entire stay at our dock. If the evenings get chilly the Cottage is quickly heated by the thermostatically controlled Wood Pellet Stove which is easy to fill and operate. In August 2021, we installed satellite internet and have received good preliminary reviews of the property Wi-Fi available to guests. There are also assorted DVD's favorites (Dances with Wolves, The God Father Series, The Note Book etc. etc.) to watch on Blu Ray but we can almost guarantee you'll fall asleep before the movie ends. Caveat: The cottage bedrooms are small but very cozy. Also, the owner no longer lives onsite during the rental season, however owner assistance is only 20 minutes away. We’d like to thank you for selecting our Old Rustic Cottage for your vacation. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. Justin Robar
