About this property

Bright and spacious, modern carriage house apartment. WiFi. 2 miles from town.

Go back in time as you travel 32 miles offshore to America's emerald isle, Beaver Island. Unspoiled. Unhurried. Unbelievable! The island is 55 square miles of gravel roads and rustic beauty. When you come to the island, you are getting away from the conveniences that city life offers and enjoying the benefits and beauty of the natural world. Take the ferry or plane from Charlevoix, MI to experience paradise.

Comfortable, spacious and relaxing 1 bedroom/1 bathroom carriage house apartment on north end of the island. Amenities include: Wifi, smart Roku TV for streaming, full kitchen (no dishwasher,) gas grill, firepit, private deck, towels and linens are provided. Laundry use is available at the main house. Very clean and comfortable. Enjoy this quiet corner of the island, still close to town but tucked away in a wooded area. Newly built in 2017. Solid hickory floors throughout. Queen bed in the bedroom, and a queen pull out sofa in living room. Lots of seating in the living space. The kitchen has everything you need for living at home (except a dishwasher.) The apartment is located above our garage and has a separate entrance and deck. Enjoy being outdoors using the fire pit and gas grill. You are a short walk away from lake Michigan (rocky shoreline) where you can swim and take in the sunrise and sunset. The space is located 2 miles from town and also 2 miles from Donegal Bay, which is a wonderful beach for swimming and sunsets. Check in is at 3:00 p.m. and check out is at 10:00 a.m. We are pet free and do not allow cats or dogs. Thank you for understanding.

I do recommend having a car to explore the island. If you choose to bring your own vehicle over contact bibco.com (Beaver Island Boat Company) for ferry schedule and rates. You can bring your car over on the ferry and will need to make a reservation for it. They start taking reservations in January and summer dates fill up quickly as there is limited space for cars. There are two places to rent cars on the island...
Burton car rentals (they also rent electric bikes) 231-838-2883.
Duffy's car rental 231-448-3132.
Keep in mind that these are individuals who rent cars, not car companies. Our island is very dusty with its gravel roads, you may not have the same type of car rental experience that you do on the mainland. Call ahead for reservations.
The island is 13 miles long and 6 miles wide. If you are content in walking and relaxing in town, you will still have an enjoyable time. Rent bikes, kayaks or paddle boards in town and enjoy spending time on the water.

There are online articles and videos about the island history. You may have a richer experience if you spend some time exploring that information. Life slows down here and restores your soul. You can follow my Instagram account @Becca Foli Photos to see pictures of the island year-round.

Make Starry Night your island home when you visit. We look forward to having you as our guests. Let the adventure begin!

The Starry Night guesthouse is wonderful, and the hosts are lovely! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The guesthouse was warm and inviting and had all the comforts of home. And the hosts were so gracious they made us feel like family. We will definitely be back to stay here again...and to enjoy more of beautiful Beaver Island.

This place was ADORABLE and very comfortable. Thoughtfully decorated with plenty of seating. Great air flow, even on a very warm summer weekend. Clean & well-stocked kitchen. The location was great- close enough to town to bike back and forth and close to sunset beach. Becca was very helpful and friendly.

Becca and Bryan's place is stellar!! It has everything you need and it's in a prime location. It's cozy, clean, inviting, close to town, near the beach, surrounded by woods, and has several amenities. We used the fire pit (wood provided!), the bbq grill (propane provided!), and enjoyed our morning coffee on the balcony every morning. I also really appreciated the fan in the bedroom window and the ceiling fans. I highly recommend this rental and I hope to stay here again in the future!
