Cozy Hubbard Lake waterfront -beautiful views, private wooded lot, fireplace

Take in gorgeous sunsets and crystal clear water from our year-round home on the eastern shore of Hubbard Lake- one of Northern Michigan’s finest inner lakes. Lounge on the private deck overlooking the lake or cozy up in front of the fireplace in the knotty pine living room. This lakefront gem has been lovingly cared for and provides privacy on a unique 1/2 acre wooded lot with mature oak and towering pine in a quiet residential setting. 100 ft. of lake frontage. The perfect "Up North" getaway any time of the year!

Home features two bedrooms with queen beds, living room with stone fireplace and two sofa beds (one queen and one twin), full kitchen, laundry room, one bathroom and a dining nook. Outdoor table, fire pit and deck (which is located down a flight of stairs toward the lake).

Quiet serene location where you can truly relax and unwind. In warm weather sit back and listen to the call of the loons, lapping waves and the whispering pines. In cold weather, curl up in front of the fire and enjoy the beautiful views!

Things to know:
Firewood is provided. There are steps down to the lake, with a deck halfway down. Please note that the steps to the lake are not maintained in the winter.

The dock is in from June through mid-September. The dock includes a large swim platform with steps to easily enter the lake. The shore is rocky, and water shoes highly recommended for swimmers. Paddle boards are available at no additional cost. Kayaks also available seasonally.

In addition to the fantastic fishing, boating and swimming on Hubbard Lake, the Cottage is conveniently located near the following:

Hiking & ORV Trails
Golf courses (White Pine National Golf Resort 10 mins; Rivers Edge 15 mins; Eagle Ridge 30 mins)
Lake Huron (20 mins)

Fall Getaway
We enjoyed a great relaxing fall getaway at the Hubbard Lake house. Pockets of vibrant color were starting in the area foliage. The home has a vintage flare but is well appointed with kitchen supplies, comfortable furniture and beds. Outstanding sunset views of the lake from inside and out. We also enjoyed a warm fire on a rainy chilly day. Our dogs enjoyed the yard and a sandy beach at Huron Park in Black River not to far away. Overall we had a nice relaxing stay and we hope to return in the future. Thanks!

Wonderful cottage on Hubbard Lake
My wife, our 1 1/2 year-old Havapoo pooch, and myself had a wonderful stay at Whispering Pines cottage. The scenic location overlooking Hubbard Lake is beautiful and the cottage is surrounded by other impressive homes/cottages. The cottage was exactly what we were looking for with knotty pine paneling, comfortable beds, and other functional home furnishings and appliances. The cottage was clean and stocked with every convenience you would need for a successful multi-day visit at an Up North cottage. The communication with the owners was outstanding. Our experience was very enjoyable. We would definitely stay at Whispering Pines cottage again.

Hubbard Lake Long Weekend!
Had a great time very relaxing with peace and quiet. Nothing better than having a fire outdoors in February with awesome sunset’s! Saw plenty of wildlife deer, turkeys, eagles and plenty of squirrels. And I have to say the owner “Harley” went above and beyond in accommodating us. I asked about renting snow shoes and after he could not find any place to rent them. He purchased 2 pair and had them shipped to the house before we got there. I would go back in a second and I highly recommend staying.
