In Northern Michigan, tucked slightly inland from Little Traverse Bay you'll find Crooked Lake. It is connected through a channel to it's larger neighbor, Pickeral Lake and the two form a unified recreation opportunity. Options vary, but houseboating is a great way to get out on the water, do some fishing and explore this isolated and beautiful area.
Boating on Crooked Lake is a great way to experience the Great Lakes region without the turbulence of the actual Great Lakes themselves. There are several islands to visit and a great deal of shore where you can camp, hike or loll away the day fishing for largemouth bass, yellow perch and more.
If you've never taken a houseboat vacation before, you don't know what you're missing. Houseboating is a fun and easy way to explore the unique waters of North America. We pride ourselves on our commitment to working with our customers to help make their trip the best it can be.
