Notes
- Over 100 feet of Lake Huron waterfront afford spectacular views from our East facing cottage. Our day begins with gorgeous sunrises and dramatic freighters and pleasure boats cruising Lake Huron to the stunning sight of cruise ships and freighters lit from stem to stern at night. You'll be awestruck when you see the Northern Lights from our beach at night. You'll know you're in a special place when viewing eagle, deer, turkey, loons, cranes and swans, butterflies and hummingbirds. Beautiful wooded drive from the main road down to the cottage provides privacy and seclusion. For your convenience we have a picnic table, child swing set and garden chairs. A large fire pit on the beach makes s-mores and a wiener roast a must during your stay. Starter supplies for cottage including toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dish and hand soap are provided. All kitchen and bath linens provided. All bedding is provided.

Residing in Texas, the Cook's love spending time at their home away from home, Bois Blanc Island.
Karen Cook purchased this house in 2003
Why Karen Cook chose Bois Blanc Island
Karen grew up spending summers on Bois Blanc, so when we had children, we wanted them to get to know the Island. The boys, like their parents have come to love and appreciate Bois Blanc with all its unique discoveries. We look forward all winter to spending our summers on the Island.
What makes this house unique
The privacy of Cook Cottage is what first attracted us to this property. The cottage is set away from the road, when we don't want to see or hear civilization, this is the perfect spot. The east end of the Island has beautiful sunrises and is close to Mary's Lake and trails for discovery. The beautiful view from the cottage down to Lake Huron provides an excellent view of wildlife including eagle, deer and the like. The cottage is bright and cheerfully decorated with a lighthouse decor. Nights spent viewing the Milky Way from our beach front is uniquely spectacular, as we don't have the light pollution from the mainland. Awesome!!
