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.

Paradise on the Lake
The location was amazing, and the views spectacular! The cabin and grounds were well maintained and the beds comfortable, We completely enjoyed our time here, reading by the lake, listening to the waves, and watching the sunrise. Steve & Eva are very personable, friendly, and ready to answer any questions. I would highly recommend this cabin - we hope to come back soon!

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.

Log cabin summer
Great property! My kids were entertained the entire time rain or shine. The cabin is well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Bring water shoes, the beach is steps from the cabin but rocky which is typical for this area. We would definitely come again.

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!

Excellent cabin
We loved the cabin and our host Eva was ever so helpful ! Our favorite room ended up being the porch since the midge flies were out in full force so we stayed inside a lot ! We did have a beautiful trip , went kayaking and had a few fires at night ! The beds are super comfy ! Our stay was wonderful and will stay there again when the midge flies are gone !!! Can see the islands on clear days and watch the boats go by ! Beautiful spot for a vacation! Thank you Eva for a wonderful vacation!

I really have no complaints, it was a perfect little cabin with just the best view imaginable. We were really in awe. We actually regretted spending most of our Sunday exploring the UP, haha we wished we had just relaxed at the cabin all day! Luuuuvvv

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. ♥️

Lake cabin
We really loved this place but needed some deep cleaning like under beds and sofa and needed a nice twin bed instead of the futon sofa. It was hard as a rock and we had to purchase a mattress topper while there for it. Also it was extremely hot and we were under the impression that it had central air. It’s a piece able a/c but didn’t cool the whole cabin. The owners were super nice and helpful.

This property is NICE!!! Super clean and comfortable.

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!
