W17371 Burton Rd, Gould City, MI 49838

Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road with very little traffic, this charming vintage cottage offers a rare sense of privacy on the serene southeast side of South Manistique Lake—often referred to as the “quiet end.” Built in the 1950s, the home has been lovingly maintained and updated, featuring classic half-log siding, a solid block foundation, and original tongue-and-groove pine interiors that give it timeless character. The home includes three bedrooms, one bath, a laundry/storage room, and a screened-in porch perfect for enjoying cool summer evenings. The square footage includes a beautifully updated three-season room with new windows, doors, and ceiling—ideal for soaking in the elevated sunset views that truly set this property apart. Set on 100 feet of lake frontage with a shoreline mix of sand and rock, the setting is peaceful and picturesque, shaded by three large maple trees. A large picture window in the living room frames a stunning view of the lake, and the small detached garage includes a fish-cleaning room and space for a compact vehicle. For added convenience, the property includes a permanent driveway easement with the neighbor and is located just 2–3 miles from Curtis, where you’ll find groceries, fuel, and other essentials.  South Manistique Lake is one of the Upper Peninsula’s top multi-species fishing lakes, teeming with bluegill, crappie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, walleye, perch, and northern pike. The Curtis area is a four-season destination, known for its excellent fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, and proximity to thousands of acres of state and federal land, as well as natural attractions like the Seney National Wildlife Refuge, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, and miles of rivers and Great Lakes shoreline. The cottage is being sold fully furnished—including the dock and lawn mower—and offers immediate possession. Please note: the seller values the privacy of the area and has requested no signs; showings are available only to qualified buyers accompanied by a licensed real estate agent.
