We loved every moment at this gorgeous and spacious log home! It was very clean and up-to-date. The appliances were top notch. Great beach access. The host thought of absolutely everything we might need. There is even a beautiful wooden chess set and my kids learned how to play chess this week!!

This is the second time we have stayed here and I highly recommend it. It has the most beautiful view you could ask for and the house is extremely clean and welcoming. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Steve and Eva are great hosts and if you have a question about anything they respond in a very timely manner. There is a little beach area and a cozy fire pit that we loved. Great yard for playing cornhole and the deck is great for looking over the water to see the Mackinac Bridge and to catch sight of the freighters going by. We will be returning again!

Again, Steve and Eva are the best hosts! They open their property up to us and it is like coming home every summer! Not only is the lodge comfortable and appealing, but the property looking out onto the lake is breathtaking. The soothing sound of Lake Huron lapping onto the shore, Mackinac Island in the distance and the Mackinac Bridge in all her glory...I can't rave enough about this place. It is definitely our home away from home :)

Wonderful week with family and friends

We had a wonderful week at this property. It was beautiful, clean, and the owners were easy to communicate with. Taking the time to personally walk us through the house was much appreciated! We had a week of walking/playing on the beach, fires and s’mores, and beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We would definitely recommend this property and would happily stay again.

Million $ view

Steve met and showed us around at check in. He gave tips for local activities and restaurants. From the moment we opened the front door I knew this place was amazing. The view from the foyer was breathtaking and only got better as you walked through the house. We enjoyed several nights around the fire pit watching ships pass through the straits. Do yourself a favor, stay up late to view the stars.
