About this property

Charming Lakefront Log Cottage, With 4 Star Furnishings, 15 min. N of Mighty Mac

This quaint 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath log and knotty pine cottage is situated on 150' of frontage directly on beautiful Brevort Lake. Brevort Lake is a 4400 acre swimming and fishing lake nestled in the Hiawatha National Forest. 85% of the lake is federally owned, making it quiet and protected by a tree-lined waterfront. The cottage, named The Fish House, is decorated and appointed to meet your every desire during your vacation at the lake. While relaxing outdoors in the secluded park-like setting you will delight in pristine sights and sounds including eagles, loons, swans, as well as breathtaking sunsets and sparkling night skies. A spacious brick paver patio overlooks the lake and a paver pathway surrounds the cottage. Outdoor ammenities include a school yard swingset, hammock, patio furniture, gas grill, fire pit, boat dock and mooring, and two kayaks. The upstairs master suite has a king luxury bed and private half bath while two additional downstairs bedrooms contain two twin luxury beds each, for a total sleeping space for six people. All bedding and bath linens are furnished. The main floor is cozy and inviting with hardwood floors and knotty pine walls, a full window wall for viewing the lake, game table, satellite tv, and a fully-equipped kitchen. We also offer a fully-equipped laundry room, supplied with beach towels. Boat rental is available from the Hunt and Fish Shop in Curtis and delivery can be made to the public boat launch on Brevort Lake. Many day trips and sightseeing excursions can be enjoyed from the comfort of your home away from home while you explore the wonderful upper peninsula!

Excellent and prompt communication-answered every question with clarity. There was an issue that we had to contact him about, & within a couple of hours he had someone come out & it was fixed. Very spacious and comfortable. Right on Brevort lake with a beautiful view. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Excellent location, couldn’t ask for better! Communication with the owner was prompt and effective. Overall, we had a great experience.That said, there are a few things worth noting for future guests and the owner. The upstairs master suite is advertised as having "a king luxury bed and private half bath." While the bed was excellent — firm and comfortable — the "private bath" was not private at all. The toilet is located in the corner of the bedroom, completely open to the room, with no partition, wall, or even a curtain. This setup offers no privacy, not to mention the potential for noise to disturb others. As elderly guests, we both ended up going downstairs during the night to use the bathroom, which was difficult and inconvenient. This was the biggest downside of the house. We strongly suggest installing at least a wall to separate the toilet from the rest of the bedroom.Additional feedback:The house could use a few more essentials — wine glasses, trivets and a hair dryer.Having a few extra extension cords would be helpful.Some light fixtures had burnt-out bulbs (such as the one over the kitchen sink).Finally, many of the furnishings, towels, and linens felt quite old and dated. While a remodel may be costly, updating the towels and linens would be a relatively small improvement that could make a big difference.Overall, it's a great place, and we would definitely consider renting it again if the open toilet issue is addressed. Everything else was manageable.

Long Family Weekend

My wife and I stayed with our two adult children at this property for a long weekend. We chose this property because of its location on the lake and its close proximity to Mackinaw Island and the North Country Trail. It was approximately a 22 minute drive into St. Ignace to catch the ferry to the Island, and it was roughly a 15 minute drive to the parking lot of the North Country Trail to start our 8.25 mile hike. Overall, we enjoyed the openness of the house, all of the amenities of the property, and having a front row seat to Brevort Lake. We hope to be a return visitor next summer or fall.

Loved!

What a great and relaxing stay we had! Very quiet and comfortable! The weather didn’t cooperate, typical Michigan, so we did a lot of relaxing but still made it to the island and got to kayak, among other adventures. We already decided we want to come back again! It was nice to not have to worry about a thing and get away for a couple of days. I would highly recommend!

Beautiful Cabin

We were all pleasantly surprised when we came through the door of this cabin. The pictures posted on this property does not do it justice. This place is much larger than it appears. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated and clean. The view of the lake from the living room was beautiful and very peaceful. We had 5 adults and 3 dogs staying here comfortably. The location was great, 20 minutes from St Ignance and approx. 1 hour drive to Whitefish bay and Tahquamenon falls. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you to the owners for sharing such a lovely home with us.

Relaxing Getaway

This home has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Our family of 5 (with 2 adult children) had plenty of space to spread out and places to hang out. We enjoyed the beauty of the lake from the lounge chairs and the cool evenings by the fire pit. Having laundry on-site was helpful and two bathrooms was essential! I did have some work to do, but was able to use my cell phone's hot spot for wifi. There's no a/c, but the nights were cool and there's fans in every room. We had a fishing boat and fished a few days, catching lots of little perch and couple keepers. We took a day trip to Tahquamenon Falls & Sault Ste Marie, Canada. Some really great restaurants with a relatively short drive including Moo Fin Fries, Jose's Cantina, & Les Cheneaux Distillery. Owner is very responsive and helpful. We loved our stay here and highly recommend.

Lovely property on Brevoort Lake. Everything was as described and well-appointed. Lots of extra blankets for chilly U.P. nights although we were not in need, we had unusually warm weather both day and night. Easy access to U.P. sights and big lake beaches if that’s what you are looking for. Sunsets were stunning on the lake!

We loved every second of our stay

The Fish House is an amazing place to stay. The home was clean and spacious - everyone in our group of 5, plus 2 dogs had room to spread out. We loved Brevort Lake, hanging out on the kayaks, and using the fire pit. The house is so close to lots of adventures on the UP. We went to the Lake Michigan Beach, the Soo Locks, Mackinac Island, Whitefish Point, and Tahquamenon Falls. We enjoyed it so much we will definitely be back.
