cute place on Beaver Island

We loved our time at the Deckhand's Quarters! We had an extra day before starting our week at a cottage, and this was the perfect place to stay! Next door to a great restaurant and the grocery store... right on the harbor... The apartment was clean and cute and comfortable. Thank you for having us!
