About this property
Enjoy your very own Private Island! Seclusion and beauty await at Howard Island
Rent the entire island with two cabins to call your own! Howard Island is a two-acre, family-owned island, located just north of Drummond Island in the Potagannissing Bay, Lake Huron. It is one of the many beautiful islands that dot the bay. Howard Island is heavily wooded with Cedar trees, has puddingstone-dotted rocky shores (bring your watershoes!) and offers 360 degrees of breathtaking views. This kind of quiet, relaxation is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
The entire dock area has been replaced and upgraded as of May 2021 with shore power and water for your boat. We have also upgraded the water system and added a washer/dryer unit in the main cabin. It is a perfect home base for adventures or to hide from the world for a bit! Rent a boat from Yacht Haven or bring your own to get to and from Howard Island, along with cruising the beautiful bay. Harbor Island National Wildlife Refuge is just a hop-skip away for hiking and swimming!

We are blessed to share this little slice of heaven with y’all and hope you love Howard Island as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
We have the privilege of being named as only the third owner in the entire history of Howard Island! Our family considers ourselves stewards of this special place. Our goal is to continue the strong legacy of loving care this island has had since it was first settled on in the late 1940s. And now we welcome other kindred spirits to enjoy the magic and timeless beauty of Howard Island!
What makes this property unique
Renting an entire island is an experience that many could only dream for. And here is such an opportunity! This area remains a top choice for all who love the water, whether by motor, sail, paddle or fin.
