Just a quick word on the measures we are currently taking regarding this time and the COVID-19 virus.

An entire three bedroom, one bath house located in a quiet relaxing neighborhood complete with a large backyard along with a fire pit and deck. Two bedrooms feature queen beds and flat screen TV's while the third bedroom is complete with two twin beds. A large well stocked modern kitchen with dishes to bake, heat a frozen pizza, make some spaghetti or to just relax in with a glass of wine. Along with a comfy living room with amble seating, a flat screen TV and DVD player is perfect for everyone to enjoy a quiet evening after a day of exploring all of the amazing wonders the Eastern Upper Peninsula has to offer.

If bringing you pet with you just be mindful when your in the backyard. While large, it is not fenced in. So please try and keep your pet out of the neighbors yard. While in the home please keep let off of furniture and we recommend crating if left at the home unattended. We will leave bags at the home for picking up the yard after your pet.

My family of 5 stayed here for 4 nights and it is a really nice place. Very easy to get to the tourist attractions without being right in the middle of everything. It is right on the interstate, but we never heard it. It was really humid when we were there, so it was great having a fan in each room. The kids even played baseball in the backyard one evening. Overall a great little place

Great location, perfect home

This home was perfect for our group of 3 adults. It was convenient to everything. When I saw on the map how close it was to the highway, I was concerned about noise but we could not hear any highway traffic. The beds were super comfortable too.

We were looking to get away for a few days to unwind. This place was perfect! The location was close to everything, easy to find, but still quiet enough to be relaxing. The kitchen was well stocked and everything we needed was handy and easy to find. We had a great time! Thank you for sharing your rental!

About the host

Host profile image
I work as a captain for the ferry companies in town and live here year round. I am just a phone call away if you need anything while you are here.

Why they chose this property

This property is centrally located in town here in Saint Ignace, which if you have been to Mackinaw City is a lot quieter and slower setting. The home is just a quick walk or bike ride to everything in Saint Ignace, ferries, restaurants, stores, marina, beach. Just outside the hustle and bustle of the main town. Easy access to I-75.
