This vacation house was probably the best we have stayed in over the last 20 years of vacation rentals. It was spotless and had more than we needed for our family to enjoy the week. Would definitely recommend this home.

This was our second stay and it was just as wonderful as the first. The house was clean and had all the essentials. We love the privacy of being at the end of the road with lots of room for the kids to play. The house is close to town as well. Highly recommend!

This place is absolutely amazing! Plenty of room, clean, and beautiful views!! The host communicates with you right away! We had a family gathering and went into Mackinaw Island one day and Mackinaw City one day. The distance to these spots was only about 20 minutes. This location was so peaceful and quiet. I hope our travels bring us back so we can stay here again!

We loved our stay here! Plenty of space for our family to spread out. The hot tub was great, especially while stargazing! Perfect central location for day trips to U.P. or other northern lower destinations.

Absolutely lovely stay! The house was perfect for our family vacation, spacious, clean and the location was close to Cheboygan. The kids loved the beach and the adults spent a lot of time on the patio and hot tub. There are multiple sets of stairs so I wouldn’t recommend for anyone with toddlers. Otherwise, it was absolutely wonderful and I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful, private, beach getaway.

This home had so many ways for us to have fun and relax! Loved the big new patio. Grilled out, used the amazing hot tub, loved the fire pit, saw shooting stars, watched the sunrise, strolled along the woodsy border and the beach, and kayaked. We loved the shallow water behind the house. Deep enough to kayak, but shallow enough to walk really far out from the shore. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

July family trip

This property is a true gem! It is so private with your own beach area to explore. The kids loved having the kayaks on site. We enjoyed the beautiful hot tub after a day of exploring. The house has plenty of room so everyone had their own space. Kitchen well stocked. We enjoyed games at the poker table and coffee on the patio. Check-in was so easy. Beds were comfortable too! Clean, spacious and beautiful. We hated to leave.

This is a beautiful and comfortable home in a lovely setting right on Lake Huron. Enjoy sun rises and wildlife, watch freighters go by. The house has absolutely everything you could need and the beds were very comfortable. Great communication, beautiful deck, very well maintained.

Huron House

Really enjoyed the property, and the property manager, Bill, was extremely helpful and kind. Cannot beat the location and the beauty of the lake right in the backyard. We appreciated the convenience of a grill and all the kitchen amenities. Enjoyed biking to town and having the garage to keep our bikes safe at night. Had a couple visitors with some service people, and then some folks selling books who got pretty pushy and showed up more than once, but other than that, it was an awesome stay.

Wished we could have stayed longer!

Love the location. It's situated at the dead end of a street. Very private and secluded. Located just 20 minutes from Mackinaw City. The views are amazing and and plenty of room to relax for our family. Spacious fully equipped kitchen. Our girls loved using the three kayaks. There was another kayak available that we didn't use. The hot tub was very relaxing and a great addition to our long walks after returning from Mackinac Island.
