Sometimes you sign up to stay at a place and the pictures don't line up with the actual property, or you worry about the condition of the property, or the grounds. This is one of those rare occurrences where the property vastly exceeded our expectations, and we had a truly fantastic time staying here and exploring the local sights. Awesome host, awesome property, and really good location for jumping of to Mackinaw, St. Ignace, and the UP

Our stay at this cabin was amazing. Secluded and quiet. Steps away from Lake Huron. Kayaking and nighttime fire pits were some of the highlights. With a view of Mackinaw Bridge and island. The cabin was beautiful. Clean and inviting. The decor created a wonderful ambiance We also were fortunate enough to see the northern lights. Check in and out were so simple.

We recently stayed at this charming cabin with an absolutely breathtaking view of Lake Michigan, Mackinac Island, and the bridge! The cabin itself was beautiful and fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Steve, our host, truly went above and beyond! He provided fantastic suggestions for local activities and even came by to start our campfire, making our evenings extra special. This experience was unforgettable, and we made lasting memories there. Highly recommend!

What an amazing stay. The property is absolutely beautiful with all that you would need. The views are spectacular and we would enjoy just watching the waves, boats and birds. The property had lots of lovely little touches that you will absolutely appreciate. From s’mores sticks, binoculars, fire wood, extra blankets, a/c for the hot days. The best bit was Steve and Eva and their wonderful family. It was so lovely to get to know them and we would love to come again.

Amazing views and central location

We had an incredible time at the cabin. The pictures don’t do justice to the breathtaking views of Lake Huron. The deck is just steps away from a sandy and rocky beach where my family enjoyed collecting rocks and wading in the water. We also loved using the two provided kayaks. The cabin itself was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything a family could need. One of the best aspects of this cabin is its peaceful location, while still being close to the bustling tourist hubs of Northern Michigan. This made it easy to take quick trips to explore and then return in the evenings to the tranquility of the cabin. We would absolutely stay at this location again in the future.

Relaxing cabin close to Mackinac!

Had a fun and relaxing stay. We always love locations right on the water so that our children can be near a beach. Short drive to Mackinaw city for shopping, food, and of course, a trip to Mackinac Island. We enjoyed evenings by the campfire admiring sunset views of the Mackinac Bridge and Mackinac Island. Perfect place for star gazing too!

Perfect Getaway

We loved staying at this cabin. The host met us as soon as we pulled in and gave us a tour of the place. It's in a perfect location as you are 10 minutes in either direction from where you want to be. The view from the cabin cannot be beat and the cabin itself has everything you need for your home away from home. Highly recommend!
