Perfect getaway!

After several stays here, I just can’t wait to get back! So comfortable, great location; secluded yet close to the city and other amenities. Although all you need is a load of firewood and good company. And Mary is the consummate host.

St Ignace Cabin and Car show

This was an amazing cabin and met all of our needs! We loved being away from town but close to all the action of the car show! The views from the backyard were beautiful! We loved exploring everyday and coming back to chill at night and didn’t miss having WiFi at all!

MAGICAL

We have visited this cabin 5 times, & it is the PERFECT artists’ retreat for us (we’re both professional musicians). It is bliss every visit. It is clean, & the kitchen is huge & the bed comfy; yet the view, the rocky beach, the soft air, watching freighters go by, the STARS at night(!), make this place the charming magic it is. We adore it!

UP Getaway

This property was exactly what we were looking for. Exceeded our expectations. Location was so convenient for what we wanted to do and see. Very peaceful and quiet and was a wonderful place to unwind and unplug. Had two 23year old boys with me and as a mom it was great to see them enjoy it all. They didn’t want to leave that lakefront!!

This property is perfect! Close enough to town, but such a private place to enjoy campfires under the stars and coffee on the porch in the early morning. So comfortable! Can’t wait to schedule our getaway in 2022!

Beautiful!

My family of 4 stayed here for a quick getaway before sending our oldest to college. It was perfect! If you are looking to explore the UP, this is a great place to stay. We took day trips to Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rock and Mackinac Island. We also spent the day at the roadside beaches just west of the cabin along Rt 2. Mary’s place provided a beautiful space to retreat to at the end of the day to watch the sunset and play games. We had a wonderful family vacation!

Best Family Vacation Ever!

Absolutely beautiful property. The cabin was ideal for all our needs. Excellent location, convenient to so many activities. The owner was great handling the one minor issue we experienced checking in and made sure we were taken care of quickly. This was by far our best family vacation filled with breathtaking views and unforgettable memories. We would love to return year after year!

Quiet getaway

The home and property were rustic and charming. With the cool nights Air conditioning was not needed however the moisture off the lake kept everything a bit damp. The views from the porch were beautiful and access to the water made a wonderful evening ritual to watch the sunset from the shoreline. The house was equipped with the basics but we needed to bring our own soap, shampoo and hair dryer. Would recommend this property.

If your looking for a secluded and quiet place that’s 5 min from st. Ignance look no further. Be as adventurous or as reclusive as you’d like this rental gives the option of both.

Perfect location

This is a cozy, homey log cabin with a beautiful view of Lake Michigan from the front porch and lawn, and loved watching all the freighters passing by. You can see the Mackinac Bridge from the beach. It is only a quick drive into St. Ignace and very convenient to Mackinac Island, Sault Ste. Marie and Tahquamenon Falls. It was beautiful to see the light from the St. Helena lighthouse blinking at night. We loved it and highly recommend!

Relaxing and Beautiful!

If you want to feel like you are away from everyone and everything, but are actually close enough to see and do all you care to...this is the place. The cabin is set on the lake with a tremendous amount of privacy. The pictures can’t even do it justice. It felt like we had Lake Michigan all to ourselves. Mary was very responsive to our questions during our stay. We have already recommended this cabin to our friends and would love to return one day!

College Music Professors / Professional Musicians

This was our third stay at this cabin, & it is an IDEAL artists’ retreat and/or anyone-who-needs-a-break retreat! It is unspeakably lovely. Its clean, relaxing, & perfectly embraces the wildness of the U.P. Bring binoculars to watch the freighters & birds (5 bald-eagle sightings this time), & a telescope for the starry nights! We sleep well, we get a lot of creative work done—it’s SO QUIET & BEAUTIFUL!! Stay here, it’s worth it.

Place of Outstanding Beauty

The cabin's location among the trees, and looking out onto Lake Michigan, is a nature lovers dream. The whole stay provided peace and serenity while enjoying the surroundings. The cabin provided comfort and everything you would need in the kitchen and bathroom. It is very homey and cozy . We really perfected relaxation here. We loved being close to the town and sights and got out each day to take in everything there. Our favorite thing though was to return to the cabin each day. It is a little bit of heaven in a crazy world. The owner was very easy to communicate with and was very helpful. It was a perfect vacation.

Clean comfortable cabin in beautiful location

We stayed in Mac Cabin last week of August 2017. The cabin itself is beautiful log cabin construction, very spacious, our family of 6 had plenty of room. The cabin was very clean upon arrival, and all the basic necessities were there. The views in the pictures are true to life; very beautiful setting. We built a fire in the firepit every evening and enjoyed the sunset. The location served as a perfect jumping off point for our side trips to Mackinac Island and Pictured Rocks. Would recommend bringing water shoes for wading in the lake, as the shore is rocky. No wifi, but decent cell service, which was handy for planning our side trips.
