About this property

4+ acres with 100 feet of sugar sand beach on Lake Huron

Our home is located in Cheboygan in a private setting on Lake Huron about a half mile from the mouth of the Cheboygan River. The home is a Victorian that was built in the late 1800s and was one of the first houses in the original “Duncan City” which was once the county seat of Cheboygan County (1853-1857). The home maintains the feel of a bygone era with its woodwork and stained-glass windows.

The home sits back about 100 yards from the beach and there is a tunnel of trees leading to the water. The private beach area is sandy with a rustic fire pit and tiki bar. From here you can enjoy walking along the beach, looking for driftwood and shells and watching the boats and freighters pass by. The beach is the perfect spot to watch the sunset with views of the Mackinaw Bridge, Mackinaw Island, Bois Blanc Island, the Cheboygan Crib Lighthouse and Poe Reef Lighthouse in the background.

The grounds contain 4+ acres with a mix of mature trees, wooded areas and grassy areas. There is a small rustic playground with swings and a slide, volleyball net, horseshoe pit, basketball net and another small fire pit closer to the house. There is also a large grassy area for the kids to run.

The house is centrally located and is about 2 miles to downtown Main Street. It is also less than a mile from the Little Traverse Conservatory Nature Preserve (in one direction) and the Cheboygan State Park in another direction. The rental comes with 5 bikes (3 adult and 2 smaller bikes) for use while exploring the area. A grill is also provided for use during your stay.

There are 4 bedrooms - 2 with queen beds, a third with a twin bed and the fourth with a full bed and a twin bed (beds for 8). There are several fireplaces in the house but they are currently non-operational.

The house was perfect for reunion of our family of 7, traveling from NY and Montana. Plenty of room and everything we could need or want for our stay. Beach was great-shallow and warm, felt like we had entire lake to ourselves. Loved watching the sunset from the beach and enjoying star gazing by the bonfire! House was nicer than advertised! Beds were comfortable and the welcome basket was such a thoughtful touch!

A great place for children! There is a garage full of well organized beach toys, games, balls, bikes, craft table, etc. At the lake there is a trunk full of items for the beach and lots of chairs. My daughter and I enjoyed coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening on one of the four beautiful porches, two facing the lake. Inside the historic home (one of only two,19th century Duncan City homes surviving we learned) there are drawers and cabinets full of toys and activities. We had a delightful week!

Our Family Vacation.

From the moment we got there, until the time we left, magic was in the air. The house was beautiful, more than we imagined. Elegantly decorated, without being stiff. It’s not hard to find a comfortable space, indoors or out. The boys loved the lake, and all its treasure’s Everyone relaxed, and found peace. I highly recommend this place. Our stay did involve a hiccup. We reported it, and it was promptly taken care of. This is a lovely place to stay.

Our family of 8 with ages ranging from 3-68 (3 generations) had a really wonderful time at this property. They've thought of everything with thoughtful welcoming touches every where. The landscape is highly relaxing and appealing. The views at the beach are wonderful too. Seeing freighters, the Mac Bridge, and a surprise rainbow all helped to make this trip memorable and special.The beach is nice, but not really a swimming beach if you're looking for that. It's quite shallow and rocky for a good ways out. We still had fun though. Just not a place to go if you're looking for deeper water to jump and swim in. All in all, this place is perfect for a relaxing getaway with plenty of room inside the house to spread out. And plenty of room to roam and play games or find a bench to sit under a tree and read out in the yard. We hope to come back again soon. Thank you for a great place for our family trip.Our family would highly recommend this get away home. They provide almost everything. Something to do for all ages. Our family is considering renting it again.Thank you, for sharing this property with others.

Our experience with this rental was wonderful. The house was more gorgeous than I imagined, and the amenities were amazing. We had 3 kids whose eyes lit up when entering the garage and seeing all the bikes, scooters and toys. The house was clean, cozy and charming.

Great hosts and house with private beach

This is a great find for those looking to relax and unwind! House and garage have everything you need with gracious hosts happy to respond quickly to you. Not much around the house to do but if you drive a bit, lots to do and of course you can’t beat the beach and beauty of the lake!

Amazing!

An amazing property with great onsite amenities and a convenient location on the beach near Mackinac City. We really appreciated the ample outdoor seating, fire pits and unbelievable assortment of supplies available. During our weekend downtime between scheduled activities, our two 8 year old kids had no trouble finding fun things to do on the grounds- basketball, soccer, bike riding and lots of quiet nooks to read in. The only real downside is that the wifi was poor and TV didn't get any reception/channels, so we weren't able to watch college football after the kids went to bed. Other than that, we can't recommend this house enough. (We're already trying to talk our retired parents into joining us for another visit at this location next year.)

Relaxing Family Vacation

This home is beautiful and has absolutely everything a family could need. My family choose to unplug for the week and just relax in this very peaceful home. We enjoyed every minute of this very overdue vacation. Thank you! PS. I would recommend painting the horseshoes two distinct colors.

Beautiful Place

WOW!! What a beautiful retreat! my husband and I booked this place for my 53rd birthday, looking to kayak and spend time outdoors. We were in awe at the beauty of this property. Outside and in. Love the older house, the woodwork and stain glass windows. The outside property is a dream, all the space and a nice walk to the awesome private beach! Everything is so well cared for. The owner/host has thought of everything! We did bring our kayaks, the weather was terrific so we paddled the bay area in both directions. Had a fantastic time. So grateful we found this place, we are so ready to come back!!

Wonderful beach vacation on Lake Huron !

We had a wonderful family vacation, during our stay at this beautiful Victorian home, on the shores of Lake Huron. The owners thought of everything. There were so many special touches inside the home. Everything one would need to feel right at home, from a armoire filled with games for the kids, to baskets of beach towels by the doors, to the hand crafted soaps( which smelled amazing), to the closet with extra beach bags, sun screen, OFF spray , even a couple extra zip up sweatshirt, if you forgot yours:) The wagons were handy when bringing items to and from the beach, the coolers and floats that were provided were just what we needed to enjoy the lake! There is a convenient grilling area, it had everything we needed to grill up lunch and dinners. While we were grilling the kids and adults were out playing in the beautifully landscaped yard, playing horseshoes, basketball , riding bikes and just sitting by the fire pit. Joe and Emillie greeted us with the keys to the home. They were a phone call or a text away if we had any questions. Extremely helpful! Joe came down and started the fire on the beach one of the nights , which turned into an awesome night under the stars !
