4 Bedroom Cottage in Gladwin

Summers on the lake, breathtaking tall trees and fall colors, countless winter activities, and cool spring nights around the fire, this chalet-style cottage offers it all. Located on Secord Lake in beautiful Gladwin County.Secord Lake is approximately 815 sq acres and about 40 feet at its deepest point. Anglers can expect to find a variety of fish including Black Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Rainbow Trout, Rock Bass, Walleye, and Yellow Perch. Lots of nearby lakes to explore, minutes from state land for hunting, and a variety of local restaurants and bars to try.
The cottage is in the perfect location on the lake, tucked in a slight cove with a sandy beach and unique fire-pit overlooking the water, and ready for relaxing with 6 Adirondack chairs. Wake up to glass-calm waters and take in the view with your morning coffee (coffee pods and tea provided).

Summary: We had a wonderful stay! The cottage was roomy, clean, and had all the amenities you could ask for. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook a great meal for a large crew. There was plenty of sleeping space for all of our guests to have their own area. The living room and bonus living room allowed everyone to chill out and watch their favorite Netflix show. The bathrooms were clean and had the necessities needed. The lakefront property was everything you could ask for. The deck was great for playing games on. The sandy beach was just perfect for building sandcastles and sunning yourself. The dock offered us many hours of awesome fishing. We caught over 100 bluegill and even caught a record setting 22 inch bass! The water equipment (kayaks, paddleboards, floating raft) were enjoyed by all. The firepit is so unique and special. We enjoyed many campfires and smores. It was so quiet and tranquil on this property. Although few, the neighbors were very friendly. I can not recommend this property enough. Thank you for sharing your piece of happiness with us.

The new water float was everyone's favorite for sure. Also the owner Cortney was always easy to get ahold of if we had any questions. Would definitely book again if we go to the Gladwin area!
