Cape Cod Meets Up North in this Gull Lake Retreat

This airy cottage has a lovely light feel and is reminiscent of a seaside retreat on Cape Cod. There are two distinct living areas in this two-for-one getaway: the main house, and the guesthouse - the two are connected by a screened-in breezeway.

Built in 2011, the main house features two beautifully furnished bedrooms, two full baths, and a stunning state-of-the-art kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a large island perfect for family gatherings while food is being prepared. The high-ceiling main room has a loft, fireplace and dry bar, not to mention a panoramic view of the lake.

The guesthouse has one bedroom, one bath, and a living room with wet bar and refrigerator, perfect for those wanting separation from the activities of the main house. There is also a queen-sized sofa bed to accommodate additional guests.

Situated above the water, the views are spectacular from almost any vantage point. Outside you’ll find an outdoor shower, a patio with a fire pit, and a private dock which is literally a stone's throw away from one of the best fishing spots on Gull Lake. Lovely landscaped grounds complete this pristine setting.

Additional amenities include air-conditioning, high-speed wireless internet access, cable TV, surround sound throughout, ceiling fans in each bedroom, hurricane shutters in the breezeway, laundry, and a grill. This vacation home accommodates eight guests comfortably.

Perfect place on the lake
We loved our stay at Cabin #10! You can’t beat the location on the point. The views from every space make you feel like you are on top of the water. It’s a beautifully designed home with coastal decor just like places we’ve stayed in Cape Cod! The breezeway was our favorite place to hang out; a screened in area is a must up north and this one is really great! We had everything we needed for grilling and cooking, but also loved the convenient access to some of favorite restaurants on Gull. Added plus was Randi was wonderful to work with! We’ve rented many homes on Gull and highly recommend this one.

A Return to Gull
In search of a much needed getaway, we were fortunate enough to find Randi's listing on Gull Lake. What a blessing! Randi was extremely helpful provided guidance to make our stay even better (e.g., suggesting a boat rental). We were able to reunite with old friends and make some new ones as well. Thanks again for a great stay!!!

Beautiful Lake Home
We had a wonderful time staying at this lake front property. The views of the lake from the house are amazing. We enjoyed swimming in the lake, star gazing from the fire pit, and gathering in the screened-in porch during the day and night. Comfy bedrooms, great kitchen with everything you need, and the house is beautifully decorated. We did not want to leave!
