About this property

Rustic Cabin, 6 miles from Mackinac Bridge, sleeps 6 on 10 secluded acres

High-speed wifi! ATTENTION JUNE AND OCTOBER GUESTS! It will be chilly, and the only heat source is a wood burning stove. Keep that in mind when booking, thanks! Converted Pole-Barn into summer home, 12 minutes to Mack City and ferries. It's in the country, so you'll be driving down 3 miles of dirt roads. 10 acres all to yourself, no neighbors, fire-pits,basketball hoop, corn hole. 2 bedrooms, queen beds. Pull-out couch in living room, 2 additional couches that people tend to sleep on. Bathroom/shower/hot water, towels, linens, pillows, hot plate, cookware, utensils, coffee maker (bring your own coffee), all the basics you might need EXCEPT heat/ac and an oven. There's a half mile trail that encircles the property. Everyone that's rented so far has loved it! Most properties this size and this close to Mackinac are pricey, so this is a great deal. It's not fancy, but it's exactly what everyone comes up north for: Relaxation, laughs around the campfire, family time.

If you’re planning to bring your dogs, this is an excellent place. If you enjoy minimalist living and prefer staying in a cabin rather than camping in a tent, you’ll likely enjoy this property.That said, considering that the nearest town is about six miles away, a few upgrades would make the property more comfortable and help justify the price. Having a few basic appliances available for preparing meals, providing gas for the grill, and adding some grass or clover around the property would make a noticeable difference.Overall, it’s a great option for those looking for a simple, quiet getaway, especially with pets. With a few additional amenities and some improvements to the grounds, it could be an even better experience.

We had a great time! Location was convenient to both Mackinaw City and Cheboygan. Dog friendly with room to let them play and a great trail to walk. This is an eclectic place with pop culture Easter eggs sprinkled throughout.This was a comfortable place for a quiet weekend.

Peaceful cabin in the woods

This place is a true gem. It's close enough to the excitement of Mackinaw but far enough away for you to escape to the peace and quiet of the countryside. My family really enjoyed our stay and the recommendations from the host were top notch.

Perfect place to unplug

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at John's place. It was quiet, clean, and a true getaway from the hustle of life. If you enjoy nature and serenity then this is the perfect place. Great location to visit Mackinaw City and Island. I would definitely stay here again.

"The Structure"

Stay was great! This place is a great location for multiple up north towns(Cheyboygan, Mackinaw City, Petoskey, Charlevoix, St Ignace and more). We went in October and the colors were absolutely stunning especially on the trail around the property.

Peaceful and relaxing!

It was great to disconnect and relax during this secluded stay. Plenty of options for fun here, we played some board games and threw on some vinyl. I’d love to see what this place is like in the fall!

Beautiful, private property with delightful character and good vibes :)

Love the trail throughout the woods on the property! High quality CD player with many good jams :) not overly fancy but exactly what you want from a northern Michigan getaway. Super close to mackinaw and beaches in the area. Communication with the host was incredible.

Family bonding time

Last minute decision to book this place and it was well worth it. Got to hang out with family by the fire and watch the kids play in the woods. Much needed vacation only wish it was longer but next time will be.
