Clean overall. Great host. October is the perfect time to come. Low tourists count. Excellent evenings by the fire pit. Only thing that threw us off was the direction the cabin faced. Pictures made it seem like it was facing the lake. Overall, a great place to stay. Would stay here again.

Great cabin and location

We loved the cabin and the location. The cabin and common ground were beautiful. Very quiet and calm. Cabin being 10 minutes from Mackinaw City and Cheboygan gave us great options for entertainment and dining. Would love to stay again.

Fantastic rental just steps from Lake HuronWe had a wonderful time! Cabin was immaculate! Very clean. Looked exactly like pictures on website Beds were very comfortable. Area was very quiet. Is located about halfway between Cheybogan and Mackinaw City so very convenient to many area attractions. Don’t miss the lumber jack show right down the road! We enjoy spending time by the lake watching the stars at night and just relaxing. Kitchen well stocked with cookware to make dinners - we also enjoyed the outdoor grill. Kids also appreciated the WiFi and streaming options on the TV. Check in was very smooth. Communication with host was clear, accurate and easy. Was a great base for a wonderful vacation in No MI and UP. We will definitely reserve again when we come back!

Beautiful and Relaxing Cabin

We enjoyed this cabin tremendously and the area as well. Loved hearing the waves right outside the window and enjoying coffee on the deck in the mornings. Campfires in the evening was always a wonderful way to end our days. Perfect distance from Mackinaw City for bike riding or Cheboygan for necessities from WalMart, etc.

Mackinac Island Trip

The home was well kept and very clean. They had everything you need for a week at the lake. Home was very clean and well kept. The shared fire pit was awesome, enjoyed watching the July 4th fireworks and meeting the other families that stayed on the property. Would definitely recommend this property if you want to enjoy a quiet lake front setting.

Nice cabin

The cabin and property was very nice and clean. Perfect for a weekend get away. We really enjoyed the firepit at night, and since everyone shares it, we made new friends. Due to no air conditioner, it was a little warm. But we managed.

Perfect anniversary getaway!

My spouse and I really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The cabin itself was gorgeous, super clean, and very tranquil. For a cabin, it was very well appointed with a full kitchen (and everything you’d need to make meals), 2 bathrooms, and a nice basement with washer-dryer. The actual property is right on the beach, and incredibly well-maintained. The cabin is located in a cluster of other similar cabins, and everyone we met over the week was incredibly friendly, and the regulars gave us lots of good tips of what to see in the area. It’s located a bit off the beaten path of Mackinaw City, which makes it a perfect spot for enjoying stars at night as well (we saw a couple of shooting stars while sitting on the balcony)! I can’t say enough good things about the property and the managers, who provided lots of clear info leading up to our trip, and communicated with us a couple of times beforehand to make sure we got all of our questions asked. My spouse and I both agreed that this is very likely one of the best, if not the best, vacation rentals we’ve stayed in!
