About this property

Sunrise Lodge

Nestled on the shore of Lake Michigan, this Washington Island log cabin boasts sleeping for up to 11 people: 3 queen beds, 3 twin beds, and 1 full bed. Like most cabin rentals on Washington Island, we provide blankets & pillows, as well as dish & hand towels, but not sheets or bath towels. (See the amenities list for other details).
Take a beautiful car ferry from Northport, WI, to relax and unwind in rustic comfort. Sit on the expansive deck to watch a gorgeous sunrise in the mornings and sit around the firepit to enjoy the million-star skies at night. The cabin offers a beautiful propane stove (think: woodstove look without the woodstove mess), as well as electric baseboard heat; full kitchen, comfy living room, cards & cribbage & games; no wifi but a great selection of DVDs to enjoy with the whole family.
Guests often book both Sunrise Lodge and Sunrise Nook, as they are on neighboring shorefront lots. Each cabin has about 200' of rocky shore with shallow water that is perfect for wading, kayaking or canoeing, and is just right for groups that include young children. Families love to be able to have multi-generational stays at these two cabins with just-enough-but-not-too-much togetherness! ;-)

We had an amazing time here! So peaceful and relaxing right on the water. We were so glad it was pet friendly as we bring our dogs with us to enjoy the fun! We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

We're so sorry for the delay in responding to this lovely comment. Please chalk it up to non-techy hosts still learning how VRBO works. :-} We're so glad you had an amazing time! We hope your sweet dogs did, too. Love the photo! Our parents were avid dog-lovers and so it was important to us to make one of our cabins pet-friendly. <3

Relaxing stay.

Our family had a great time at the lodge. It was in a nice area. The lodge was well kept and a great place to kick back and soak in all the wildlife. Definitely will have to come back visit.

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay, Bob, at this slower time of the year on the island. We do rentals year round so if quiet, peaceful stays with beautiful views of the lake in all seasons appeals to you, we'd love to have you back.

About the host

Hosted by Gabrielle Daniels

Host profile image
Born and raised in Wisconsin, Gabrielle has spent most of her life in the Midwest. Though she no longer lives on Washington Island year round, the island is where her heart is! She & her family - husband Peter, grown sons Soren & Miles, DIL Michaela - cherish this place that has been in her family for nearly 50 years.
One of her favorite things is to share the gift of these cabins with others who come to love & cherish it as she & her family do.

Why they chose this property

Gabrielle's parents first came to Washington Island in the 1970s. They fell in love with it and were wise enough to buy right away. Gabrielle and her siblings grew up splashing in the lake, canoeing, and hiking & biking all over the island.
She loves the memories of building the cabins, having her first job, and laughter under the stars.

What makes this property unique

The Lodge is on the middle of three lots (the Nook is one lot north) and is the original cabin built by Gabrielle & family. It is a "Lincoln log" style cabin - large, spacious, simple, rustic. It's a short walk to the rocky shorefront and the views are spectacular.
People often book both the Nook and the Lodge together; one favorite approach is to have parents and children in one cabin, with grandparents in the other.
