The Nest on Sugar Island
The Nest is 10 out of 10 best place to stay for for a quiet get away with the most beautiful scenery! Jan kept everything clean and tidy for our stay! Even kept a gas fireplace lit for us, creating the most cozy feel to the Nest! If you're looking for a secluded place in the woods and waterfront property to vacation at, The Nest is the place to be! The people on Sugar Island and in Sault Saint Marie are the most kind people! Food in the area is amazing!!! And White fish point is only a little over an hour drive if you want to look for YooperLight stones!! Lake Superior is absolutely gorgeous!!

About the host

Hosted by Jan Bailey

Host profile image
Harold is retired from our business as of November 2017, since then has enjoyed many days of fishing. I'm a RN at War Memorial Hospital and an EMT here on our little island. Harold is from Ohio but wanted to be "up north" to go fishing as much as he could. Myself born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie and never left!
