About this property

Hidden Springs on Long Lake - Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore

Relax, explore, reunite & enjoy! Hidden Springs is nestled along Long Lake with 100 ft. of private frontage and almost an acre of land making it a truly wonderful private getaway. The 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage comfortably sleeps 6 guests with maximum occupancy up to 8. The Old Indian Trailhead (Sleeping Bear Dunes) is just across the road, at the end of the trail soak up the views and take a dip in Lake Michigan!!

Hidden Gem
This property is all we expected and more. Long lake is a beautiful,quiet lake. This is our 2nd year staying at the cottage and liked every minute. So much fun lakeside playing in and around the water. Lots of games and activities for all ages. We kayaked every day sometimes numerous times. Had fun watching the wild life in and around the lake. Also searching for things in the forest across 22 Old Indian Trail. The beach at the end on lake Michigan was an afternoon stay. Even making a fairy garden in the woods. There were many teaching/learning moments for the kiddos and us as well. We have been coming to this area since we were young and continue to love all the surrounding area has to offer. Sand dunes, Lake Michigan, Platte river kayak and tubes, Pierce Stocking drive,beaches, Traverse City, Frankfort, great restaurants especially The Cherry Hut. Great hikes. An outdoor paradise! Ryan and his wife are Great hosts. Hope we can do it again.

Hidden Surprise
My family of two teenagers and my parents visited and celebrated my parent's 50th anniversary. Inside and out the house was great whether we were coming and going or just relaxing at Hidden Springs. The lake access; beach, boats, and dock, really helped us escape our daily reality and enjoy the beautiful and peaceful lake. Communication with the owners was great and I can't thank them enough for how they helped us know more about the area so we could make the most of our time. Watching my 75-year-old dad catch a nice smallmouth bass while sitting in the back of a comfortable canoe will be a lasting memory. I can't think of a single drive or walk up or down the driveway off M-22 when we didn't see a deer or rabbit saying goodbye or welcoming us "home." Being able to hike through a beautiful forest to dunes and the Lake Michigan shoreline without getting in the car was a treat. A quick drive to Frankfort brought us views of lighthouses and Crystal Lake, ice cream, bike trails, and good food. It was also nice to be able to choose from three beautiful area golf courses each under $50 per round. We've stayed at several wonderful homes in northwestern Michigan, but this is the one that had everything we could possibly be looking for. The only reason we can't stay again next year is that we will be travelling with a much larger group. Otherwise, Hidden Springs will certainly be top of the list for future getaways.

Quiet week at the Lake
As always, we were greeted to the home by the cool breeze coming off the lake drifting through the double patio doors, into the clean and tidy home that would be ours for the next week. The tranquility persisted throughout the week, ranging from the call of the loons to wake us at daylight, to the frogs and crickets lulling us to sleep at night. This is a superb spot for relaxation off the beaten path, but we'll within distance of countless activities, more than what can be seen and done in a week for sure!
