When we arried our host John met us and told us about the the place and gave us a recommendation of a place to try for dinner which was great. He was very nice/friendly and if we needed anything at all we had to do was text and ask. Beautiful view of the lake from the backyard. Place was very clean and a perfect stay for our family vaction.

Clean and simple 2 bedroom unit with great back yard and view of the Straits both night and day. Our GSD loved the property chasing the ball and soaking up the nice breezes. John was a very gracious and thoughtful host with added touches like bottled water, Kuerig with cups, local homemade tallow soap and many other items. Excellent location for access to the UP and surrounding area, especially only having to cross the bridge twice (there and back) for our 4-day stay. Nice TV, never turned it on - spent most of our time there out back in nature. Would recommend to anyone traveling to the area and loves the outdoors.

Wonderful stay with beautiful lake view - felt like family.

Great place to stay only 5-10 minutes from the ferries to Mackinac Island and 5 mins to the bridge View park for Mackinac Bridge. John was a wonderful host and made us feel like family. Beautiful views of the lake from the backyard as well,

Perfect Stsy

My wife, daughter and I love St. Ignace, Michigsn as a stepping off point for Mackinac Island, and wanted to pick back up again on our tradition of an October visit. Finding this property was the best part of our recent trip.

Super

This is a nice property to stay at. The location is what one wants for exploring the upper peninsula and upper-lower MI. The house was clean and the host both accommodating and friendly. The View from the outdoor patio area is fantastic looking over the water and toward Mackinaw straights.

Failed Expectations - Buyer Beware

1. This is a very old, original condition “up north” type cabin NOT a Corporate Apartment. Given the many UP winters and conditions it’s been through, like more than 60, it’s got that musty/mildew smell and it’s heavy. Owner will disagree but it did not sit well with me. My respiratory system was inflamed/irritated and I do not have allergies. 2. House sits right ON very busy part of Highway 2 The pillow your head rests on will be less than 30 yards from the highway. Road noise is significant. Tried to use foam earplugs to no avail. This needs to be made more clear to any potential customer. 3. No air conditioning and all windows are kept closed/unusable other than 1 in kitchen. NO airflow in house. Small fan by bed but that’s it. This again probably compounds point number one.4. It is essentially a house/cabin modified into 2 living quarters, with homeowner/host living on other side of wall from rental. be aware privacy may be different than expected, and sound will certainly travel through thin wall.Bottom line, I had booked this in order to do a daddy daughter weekend with my 12 year old daughter and go to Mackinaw island, etc. I had booked this home for three nights, but we abandon it immediately the first morning due to inability to rest comfortably. Fled to nearby hotel.I explained the same to host, who simply stated he was offended, and REFUSED any idea of even a partial refund. Living and learning……..

Great Place

This house was just perfect for my husband, myself and a friend. There is a nice sized living area and dining area with a table big enough to play dominoes on. The kitchen is small but perfectly adequate for the little cooking we did and equipped with the essentials. The house is older but a very cute retro feel. I loved the kitchen cabinet handles with the latching handles. A memory from the past! The house was very clean and you could tell by the pattern on the carpet it was freshly vacuumed. The view of the Mackinac Straits was nice and the owner was very nice and in a unit next door. Communication was excellent. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Fantastic spot, awesome host.

Place could be easy to miss, but John really help out with that. He messaged us very clear directions that made it way easier to find. The house was in a perfect place for us, minutes from town, but right off the highway we were going to be using the most. The house was very well kept, with a nice view.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I'm an avid outdoorsman and I've spent a lifetime learning the ways of the water and the forest and such. So if you're looking for a guide or support for your vacation needs from mushroom harvesting to kayaking to fishing or Mackinac Island exploration, I'd be happy to help make your vacation memorable.
We have extra gear and guide services available upon request.

Why they chose this property

Although my place is next to the highway, which is sometimes beneficial, the view is spectacular and the birds of all kinds frequent the feeders here.
I'm very close to a lot of interesting and beneficial tourist destinations including the KOA campground just a few hundred yards away across the road and the ferry docks to Mackinac Island are only a mile and a half drive and the shuttle will pick you up here no charge.

What makes this property unique

I am here, or not, if you so choose and can answer your questions and direct your travels to make things smoother and more confident.
And I do all that outdoorsy stuff if you forget your kayak paddle or something....
I'll even light the fire and speak the native language if you're interested.
