Overview
5 Bedrooms, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 9
This cozy cottage is the perfect family get away. The kitchen is well equipped and linens and towels are provided. The home has 5 bedrooms & 1 bath. There is a queen bed & private balcony on the upstairs master and a queen bed right off the living room in the downstairs master. There is a gas fireplace in the living room for chilly evenings, a flat screen TV with a dvd player, there are also many games, books and cards for your enjoyment. It has a large yard with lots of room for little ones to play. Look out of your glass enclosed porch with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee and watch the ferries shuffle people to Mackinac Island. There is a public boat launch waiting for your boat 300 yards away. The cottage is in a perfect location for access to all the interesting points in the U.P. Only a few blocks I-75 or US-2 and only about a mile from the Mackinac Bridge. You can easily make day trips to Mackinac Island, Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rocks or Sault Ste. Marie, but don’t forget about all the happening in St. Ignace itself. Fireworks every Saturday (in season), movies in the park, music on the Bay, wine tasting in town, and so much more.
About Mark
Lori & I have been coming up to St. Ignace for twenty two years. Being professional photographers we loved the scenery and fell in love with the people. After ten years of looking for our own little piece of heaven we stumbled upon The Love Shack.
Mark purchased this cottage in 2008
Why Mark chose Saint Ignace
The location of the love shack is perfect. When we bought the home it had been vacant for many years. Noone saw what we saw. We have redone almost everything but as we all know the work of an older home keeps us jumping. It is close to town and all the happenings. The views are wonderful and with 4 children in our family the playground is right down the street.

Not the Ritz but charming.
St. Ignace is a beautiful waterside town with great food, views, and relaxing times. The Love Shack is located in walking distance to everything and has a character all its own. My family enjoyed our stay and the property was just as described in the listing.
Conveniently located cottage
We appreciated having WiFi and a smart tv for down times, and the kids enjoyed the PS2. The upstairs outdoor balcony was delightful, and we also enjoyed the main floor enclosed porch with the lake breeze and views of the island and lake. The location was convenient and also within walking distance to a park on the lake. Being an older cottage, there was a shortage of places to keep our clothing and hang bath towels, and the lighting was a little dim. It met our expectations based on previous reviews (no a/c, just fans). The cottage was clean, and there was always hot water for 7 of us sharing one bathroom. Mark was very good about quickly answering any questions we had. We also made use of the fire pit, and a neighbor kindly brought over some kindling.
Very Charming house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in St. Ignace. It is a very charming house. Close to downtown, parks and stores. Fireworks on Saturday night, free movie on Sunday night. House was clean. New living room furniture was very comfortable. Didn't need fans since house was close to lake and with windows open the breeze was great. Had wifi with DTV Now. Having washer and dryer was great. Nice view upstairs balcony. Nice place to sit and read in the morning. Would rent again.
Wonderful vacation in spacious home.
It was spacious and clean. Furnishings were comfortable but in need of updates as was parts of house - but they’re working on it. Location was great. Nice to have washer and dryer on hand. Talking with Mark the owner was wonderful. He was responsive and friendly.
Cozy cottage....we loved it.
The cottage is located in a well suited area that has easy access to a grocery store, restuarants and ferry service to Mackinac Island. It is a bit rustic but if you pay close attention to the small details, you can tell it is cherished by the owners. Mark was very responsive to all of our questions and concerns. We were originally worried because the cottage does not have AC, but the lake breeze is just enough to keep cool. Mark also provided fans to ensure the comfort of our furry family member, which was great! There is a nice playground within walking distance that is on the lake and makes for a great morning walk. While its not perfect cosmetically, its much better than camping in a hot tent. We would stay again!
Great
No complaints. Quiet neighborhood, close to everything.
