Straits View Shores on Lake Huron

Wonderful 4 bedroom/2 bath waterfront home with views of Mackinac Island and Mackinaw Bridge.

This wonderful family cabin is over 2000 square feet and features 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. There is a beautiful view of the Mackinaw Bridge and Mackinac Island. The ferries to the Island are less than 15 minutes away. You can drive 10 minutes to the Headlands - designated as a 'DARK SKY PRESERVE' - one of only a few locations in the country given this designation. The night sky is breathtakingly beautiful! Just a short drive over the Mackinaw Bridge will take you to the Upper Penninsula of Michigan

Enjoy the spectacular sunrises from the deck and cook outdoors on the gas grill, There is an outdoor fire pit and an indoor Gas Fireplace. The cabin has air-conditioning for warm nights.
The dining room features a large log table with 6 log chairs and 4 addional log chairs at the Island in the kitchen.

In the spring, birdwatchers gather from all over the country to catch a glimpse of the incredible hawk migration. Historic Fort Michilimackinac and the Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse, McGulpin Point Lighthouse and the ferry docks to Mackinac Island - are all minutes away.

In the fall, take the color tour through the "tunnel of trees" or enjoy spectacular scenery in the Upper Peninsula, an easy drive across the mighty Mackinac Bridge. There's nothing quite like the sound of bugling elks during mating season at Pigeon River or the mysterious call of the loon on a quiet lake. It's all here! Hunt, fish, hike, canoe, bike - you can do it all or you can just relax with a good book. There is something for everyone here.

Beautiful House and Area

This property was very nice with all the amenities you could ask for and it was close to everything in the area, but still somewhat secluded. The owner was very attentive and quick to respond. Would stay again.

Amazing Views

The views were amazing as you look out the kitchen you can see the Lake Huron! You can also see the beautiful Mackinaw bridge from the beach and the island! The bridge looks cool at night all lit up!

Nice getaway with family

Overall this was a great stay. Beautiful view of Lake Huron and the kids had fun looking for rocks. Lots of privacy but close to Mackinaw City. Board games and cards for family fun! Only complaint was that the smoke detector constantly went off.

Lovely property

The house and property were exactly as advertised. Everything was neat, clean and well organized and the host was very responsive to questions. The view of the Mackinaw Bridge from the water’s edge was an added bonus.

Great view of Lake Huron

The home is truly cared for. The view from the property looking out to Mackinac Island and Mackinac Bridge was excellent. Beach is rocky, but you are up north- expect that! We had fun searches for neat rocks. Beds were comfy. Ample room for adults and kids inside and out. Pet friendly! Only complaint was there were no cushions for the seats on the deck. exploreMullett and Bert Lakes.

Beautiful Up North Retreat

The property and house were wonderful and just like it was listed. The house is in a great location and it’s easy and quick to get to both Mackinaw City and Cheboygan. The house was well stocked with all the necessities plus fun extras like board games. My family loved the private beach and we enjoyed sitting in front of the fireplace at night. It was too windy for us to do a bonfire, but the fire pit and the rest of the property were well maintained. We had a great, relaxing stay.

B-Day Weekend

Had a great vacation. I can make a couple of suggestions. 1. The house could use a Keurig coffee maker. 2. Some instructions on how to watch the TV would be helpful. I spent most of my time looking for things. LOL.

Great place, but needs some things

Great house on lake. Needs some things though. Upstairs mattress bad, low water pressure throughout house. Grill not in good shape, light by back door keeps flicking. Porch flood light to front yard works but only stays on 30 sec motion dector. Did not supply enough papers products. Many miles of trails across st was not assessable. But don’t let this detour you from staying here.
