About this property

Lakeside Cottage Near Mackinaw Island

Well maintained, charming cottage under 5 miles to Mackinaw City and ferries. This lakeside retreat is tucked in off the main road with a few other summer cottages. A small updated, well-equipped kitchen overlooks the beautiful lake. Eat while enjoying the breeze through open windows, or relax on the cottage deck while enjoying nature's beauty. Fish from the dock, take out the paddle boat, or watch the sunset. Cozy up to a fire pit, one on water's edge and the other steps from your door. This is the perfect place to relax, fish, shop, or ferry to Mackinac Island.

Very relaxing and quiet

Cabin was a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. Walked the Mighty Mac which was an amazing experience. Loved the way the cabin was decorated. The only suggestion we would have is putting some slip resistant Tape in the claw foot tub. Very slippery and there is nothing to hang onto to assist you

Great Cabin on the Lake

The cabin was a great place for three ladies exploring northern Michigan. The dock provided a great place to relax and watch the sunset. The showers were hot and the little kitchen had all we needed to cook up a meal or two. The shaded area kept the heat bearable for good sleeping and the neighbors were friendly and made it feel remote but safe.

Great Spot on Lake Paradise

I had another great visit to this little yellow cottage in the old Wiggins Camp on Lake Paradise. As always the place was clean, well-maintained, and a lovely place to stay. The property owners I met again and anew were all friendly and welcoming. Looking forward to going back, this time with a friend, in August 2023.

Relaxing

The cottage is very charming, and a great location. The lake is beautiful and very peaceful. Met some of the neighbors and they were really nice and friendly. Used the kayaks and paddle boat. Did some swimming and fishing. We weren’t inside the cabin much, we had a great time on the lake. We would definitely go back.
