This is our perfect getaway spot. We always feel like we’re “coming home” when we pull in the driveway. Mary is the consummate host; always makes sure we are welcome and comfortable. This is our fifth year and I can’t wait for our sixth!

What an incredible piece with majestic views, and private if you’re looking for that. It was the perfect location for us to get to Munising (make sure to ride the @riptideride!), Macinac island and back to Harbor Springs and Petosky.

This cabin was in a fantastic location right on Lake Michigan with amazing views of freighters. It is secluded, but still in reasonable distances to enjoy the sites from White Fish Point and the Ship Wreck Museum, Tahquamenon Falls, Sauté Ste. Marie/Soo Locks, hiking in Cedarville, and Mackinaw Island. Being Labor Day weekend, it was also close to the Mackinac Bridge Walk. We had an amazing stay. The cabin does have well water so we recommend you bring your own water to drink.

Perfect getaway!

After several stays here, I just can’t wait to get back! So comfortable, great location; secluded yet close to the city and other amenities. Although all you need is a load of firewood and good company. And Mary is the consummate host.

St Ignace Cabin and Car show

This was an amazing cabin and met all of our needs! We loved being away from town but close to all the action of the car show! The views from the backyard were beautiful! We loved exploring everyday and coming back to chill at night and didn’t miss having WiFi at all!

This was our 6th stay at this cabin—we keep coming back because it is FANTASTIC. It’s super clean, big kitchen, awesome (huge) back deck.And! If you bring enough food, you can stay here for WEEKS without seeing another human. It’s that private.And! It’s a cabin in the U.P., it’s utterly charming; with wetlands COVERED in dragonflies between the cabin & the beach! Bald eagles visit daily. Loons, ducks, seagulls, giant woodpeckers—it’s magical. The beach is rocky & glorious. The views are amazing from the cabin, the lawn/fire pit, the beach. Bring your binoculars to watch the freighters pass by (there’s an app that tells you which ones they are, their length, their cargo, & their destination). Lastly, stay up past sunset & go sit outside & stargaze. It’s incredible. It’s lovely. Also, we sleep SO WELL here! We will come back here as often as we can!

MAGICAL

We have visited this cabin 5 times, & it is the PERFECT artists’ retreat for us (we’re both professional musicians). It is bliss every visit. It is clean, & the kitchen is huge & the bed comfy; yet the view, the rocky beach, the soft air, watching freighters go by, the STARS at night(!), make this place the charming magic it is. We adore it!

UP Getaway

This property was exactly what we were looking for. Exceeded our expectations. Location was so convenient for what we wanted to do and see. Very peaceful and quiet and was a wonderful place to unwind and unplug. Had two 23year old boys with me and as a mom it was great to see them enjoy it all. They didn’t want to leave that lakefront!!
