Charming cabin right on Lake - sitting on the back deck listening to the waves lap up on the beach - priceless! Then at night seeing the lights on Mackinaw Bridge and the Mackinaw Island - awesome! We'll be back for sure. Steve was the best and easy to contact when needed.

Perfect!
This cottage was the perfect size and location for my family. The water is right off of the deck. Two towns, one with a Walmart for groceries, are about 10 minutes away. There is a trail right across the street! There are 2 bathrooms and they both have showers. The loft is open and there is a bed, bath, and sitting area with a sofa bed. Everyone we met there was delightful. We will be back!

Relaxing cabin close to Mackinac!
Had a fun and relaxing stay. We always love locations right on the water so that our children can be near a beach. Short drive to Mackinaw city for shopping, food, and of course, a trip to Mackinac Island. We enjoyed evenings by the campfire admiring sunset views of the Mackinac Bridge and Mackinac Island. Perfect place for star gazing too!

Perfect Getaway
We loved staying at this cabin. The host met us as soon as we pulled in and gave us a tour of the place. It's in a perfect location as you are 10 minutes in either direction from where you want to be. The view from the cabin cannot be beat and the cabin itself has everything you need for your home away from home. Highly recommend!

Relaxing stay by the water
Really enjoyed our time at this cabin. We booked it for proximity to Headlands Dark Sky Park and Mackinaw island. View of the stars was as good or better than at Headlands which was awesome. Steve met us at the check in and explained everything. Nice hands on touch. Cabin had everything needed for a family stay. Would definitely recommend. 10 minute drive to Cheboygan and grocery. 10 minute drive to Mackinaw City and the ferry.

Wonderful Babymoon
We wanted a quiet getaway for our Babymoon and this cabin hit the spot! It’s was located close to Cheboygan and Mackinaw City, but was far enough away that it still felt secluded. The cabin could not have been cuter and had all the amenities you could need or want. And the beauty of the area cannot be underestimated; it was beyond beautiful and the waves from the lake just made it that much better. We plan to come back with our family of 3 in a year or so and can’t wait to introduce our son to this sweet spot!

Perfect cabin in perfect location
Just as pictured. Very clean & has everything you need to cook for a family or make small meals. Located in between Cheboygan & Mackinaw City you will have plenty of restaurants to choose from. Anyone from small families to two older couples like ourselves will enjoy this well cared for cabin & all it has to offer.

Not ready to leave!
We LOVED our time at your cabin. It was perfect for us, the location, the views, the beds, amenities, the community atmosphere, everything. Being from Texas, the reprieve from the brutal summer heat was just what we needed. Getting to know Michigan was delightful. We are already talking about coming back next summer…maybe even find a way to stay longer. We’re not even to the airport to return home and we already miss it. Thank you for this sweet refuge of a place. ♥️

Beutiful cabin on Lake Huron
The property was very nice and well maintained. We arrived to an immaculately clean cabin! The private beach area and outdoor furniture made for fun in the sun and serene moments listening to the waves and watching for freighters. The close proximity to Cheboygan and Mackinaw City was perfect. The neighbors were fabulous, and we couldn't have asked for a better stay.
