Brimley, Michigan
A PRIME location to enjoy all the outdoor beauty and activities the Upper Peninsula has to offer. Located on a back bay of mighty Lake Superior, this rustic, yet cozy CABIN is surrounded by beautiful sandy beaches for enjoying long walks on the shore, kicking back to watch the sunset, or just gathering around the warmth of a bonfire on the beach. Can you hear the s'mores calling your name It's perfect for a family with children to swim in shallow water for hours of fun. The bay is also perfect for anyone who enjoys kayaking, boating (launch nearby - no boats provided), fishing, jet skiing, or many other water sports. Not to mention, it's close to trails for hiking, biking and just leisurely trail walking surrounded by nature.
This 'rustic chic' vacation spot is perfectly located within driving distance to many spectacular up North destinations: Tahquamenon Falls, the Soo Locks, Bay Mills Casino & Resort, Wild Bluff Golf Course, Iroquois Light House, White Fish Point, and many others. It's also within walking distance of two restaurants and a small grocery store for extended stays.
Check-in is at 3 pm and check-out at noon. The summer weeks tend to book up fast, so please contact us today if you're interested!
Did we enjoy our stay? Yes Would we like to stay there again? Yes But the cabin may not be for everyone. Others have commented on deferred maintenance, and you may find window-coverings/windows/window locks that don't work well or at all, flaking paint on the bathroom ceiling, duct tape on the floor, or shaky railings outside. But overall, the place was clean, bright and comfortable; and it has an outstanding view on the beach in a very quiet location. It is nearby many amenities including excellent casual restaurants (with local whitefish). For us, the deficiencies became less and less notable as our stay continued. The cabin is not necessarily easy to find. It is on Shenandoah ROW (not Ave or Road), a small dirt road in a private cluster of cabins just west of the Brimley State Park. Our GPS could find it, but Google misidentifies the location.
Location was perfect for my family with young children! Beach was pristine sand and water depth was shallow for a long way out which allowed for lots of swimming with our young children. We visited in early August and did not get a single bug bite, which was a pleasant surprise! Being able to see the sunset AND the sunrise was magical!
Enjoyed Brimley. Gorgeous view of the water. Numerous problems with the cabin negatively impacted our vacation. We will never stay at this cabin again.
This place is not fancy by any means but it was perfect for me and my grandsons ages 8 and 10. We loved the location right on the Bay of Lake Superior. The boys could of spent the entire time in the water with their kayaks. We enjoyed watching the freighters coming and going through the locks in the Soo.
We found the cottage very clean upon our arrival. There was everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The location on the water is fantastic. The beach was sandy and the swimming was great. Would stay here again!
We had an amazing week! The cottage is clean and per the listing. The views are incredible! We loved sitting on the lower deck by the water watching all the ships go in and out. Very peaceful and relaxing vacation. Thank you for everything!
The property and beach was awesome HOWEVER the cabin itself is a dump! Most of the outlets don’t work, the floors and bathroom are a combo of rotten wood and lots of duct tape. Big refrigerator NOT WORKING so only very small refrigerator to use.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our week at this property! We had long, lazy mornings with coffee on the porch, and relaxed with wine on the deck each evening watching the sunset. Great location for visiting the Soo Locks and Tahquamenon Falls. Nice little market less than a 5 minute drive and Superior Pizza was even closer and was yes- superior! This cottage was exactly as shown and described. A comfortable and charming vintage space. Our Labrador retriever was in heaven too- and swam every day. Communication with the owner was quick and helpful. We would return here in a heartbeat.
This cottage is right on the water with an amazing view, in a quiet little neighborhood of dirt/sand roads. Some of the other houses are also VRBOs and others have full-time residents. Friendly and low key. Walking my dog on the beach, watching sunrises and sunsets, watching the water and weather - all were delightful experiences. The cottage itself is in need of quite a bit of repair; for example, the roof leaked during a rain storm, there are electrical extension cords all over the place and one of the bathtub faucets was faulty. So, it was a bit like camping with running water, furniture, and a space heater for amenities. But, the owner is nice and the setting is so fantastic that I will probably return.
Was nice and had everything you needed to enjoy your stay. Could do with a few updates but you get what you pay for and we enjoyed our stay. I would go back again for sure! Thanks for renting to my family we have a fabulous time and loved it.
