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.
