Welcome to Stone’s Throw Cottage, a real farm in the North that you can stay at. This cute and quirky house has been fixed up and is tucked away among big old trees on a half-acre lot with some fencing. It’s also very close to all of Indian River’s best shops, restaurants, and nightlife spots. It’s able to comfortably accommodate the needs of six guests in the three spacious bedrooms. Additionally, there is a recently renovated sleeping cabin for four additional adventurous travelers.

You can unwind in our living and dining areas after a long day of swimming in rivers and lakes or hiking trails, golfing, shopping, or even visiting Mackinac Island. It is also possible to enjoy the terrace with its grill or sit with friends around the fireplace and enjoy an assortment of marshmallows.

There is no guarantee that you will have your own beach, but there are several public boat docks less than a mile away. Have a lot of boats and toys? Our extra-large lot is big enough for it! The river park is right across the street, and it only takes 10 minutes to walk to the public beach.

The beauty of Northern Michigan will take your breath away! The 17,120-acre Burt Lake is beautiful, with clear water, tall trees, and friendly animals. On the rocky waters, you might even find the famous Petoskey Stone if you’re lucky. Do you like sandy adventures? A football field’s length of sandbars sticks out from the shore and drops to a depth of 73 feet.

Three large bedrooms and two full bathrooms make Stone’s Throw Cottage a great place for six people to stay. Are there any adventurers within your circle who would like to travel north? The cheerful and bright sleeping shack is just 7 steps from the shack. It can accommodate four additional people to sleep as well as a second space to relax with a smart TV and poker table.

Fun activities to enjoy don’t end with Indian River. Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Bay Harbor, Boyne Highlands, and Mackinaw City are all close and only a 30-minute drive away. Want some ideas for your stay? We’ve explored the Indian River many times and can help you plan a trip full of Up North magic!
