Our stay at this charming cottage on Beaver Island was an absolute dream! The location is stunning—in a quiet, beautiful spot with an incredible sunrise view over Lake Michigan. The cottage itself was so clean and inviting, and we absolutely loved having campfires on the beach under the stars. It was the perfect, peaceful getaway. We can’t wait to come back!

Peace and quiet
From the cabin, you can watch and listen to the waves lapping in. Most beautiful beaches and night sky. My favorite spot was sitting on the bench under maple trees next to the beach.

Great property
We had an amazing stay at our cottage. Everything was clean and quiet with a fantastic view!! We were greeted by a family of Grouse when we arrived which was also so very cute. All necessities were provided for us to cook in the kitchen. Beds were also very comfy. Great memories!!!

Peaceful retreat
We had an incredible stay at this home. We loved the location - secluded but a short drive to town. Alec was quick to reply to questions. We’ll be coming back to Beaver Island for sure!
