Private 4 Acre Home on Lake Michigan Minutes From Action In Downtown St. Ignace.

This is our perfect getaway spot. We always feel like we’re “coming home” when we pull in the driveway. Mary is the consummate host; always makes sure we are welcome and comfortable. This is our fifth year and I can’t wait for our sixth!

This was our 6th stay at this cabin—we keep coming back because it is FANTASTIC. It’s super clean, big kitchen, awesome (huge) back deck.And! If you bring enough food, you can stay here for WEEKS without seeing another human. It’s that private.And! It’s a cabin in the U.P., it’s utterly charming; with wetlands COVERED in dragonflies between the cabin & the beach! Bald eagles visit daily. Loons, ducks, seagulls, giant woodpeckers—it’s magical. The beach is rocky & glorious. The views are amazing from the cabin, the lawn/fire pit, the beach. Bring your binoculars to watch the freighters pass by (there’s an app that tells you which ones they are, their length, their cargo, & their destination). Lastly, stay up past sunset & go sit outside & stargaze. It’s incredible. It’s lovely. Also, we sleep SO WELL here! We will come back here as often as we can!

This cabin was in a fantastic location right on Lake Michigan with amazing views of freighters. It is secluded, but still in reasonable distances to enjoy the sites from White Fish Point and the Ship Wreck Museum, Tahquamenon Falls, Sauté Ste. Marie/Soo Locks, hiking in Cedarville, and Mackinaw Island. Being Labor Day weekend, it was also close to the Mackinac Bridge Walk. We had an amazing stay. The cabin does have well water so we recommend you bring your own water to drink.

Second time at this property. Great location. Quiet and relaxing. Owner always responded quickly with answers to questions I had. Would stay there again and again. The 24yo boys that were with me loved it this year as much as last!

Ive never left a negative review, but I felt this merited one. We left this morning and said goodbye to all our new mice friends. They enjoyed our trail mix I forgot to put in the fridge last night. This morning when I turned on the light they scattered behind the fridge and fireplace. It is a beautiful location but the well water smells like sulfur and stains your skin orange. Chairs by the fire were broke/cracked-so bring your own chairs. Sheets upstairs were blood stained. In general, it just felt dirty. Think a step above tent camping and you won’t be disappointed. For the money, it would have been much better to stay at a hotel in St Ignace (most are right on the water).

What an incredible piece with majestic views, and private if you’re looking for that. It was the perfect location for us to get to Munising (make sure to ride the @riptideride!), Macinac island and back to Harbor Springs and Petosky.

The location is that amazing combination of feeling both way out in nature but close to restaurants, the grocery store and other amenities. The views from the beach are amazing: you can see the sunset in one direction and the Mackinaw Bridge in the other. Inside the house, however, we found mice droppings in the silverware drawer and the dresser that held extra sheets in the loft. The stairs had clearly not been swept either, because we found a potato chip on them when first arriving (and upon looking closer, either crumbs or small gravel/sand). There were ample cleaning supplies on hand, so I could disinfect the counters and rewash all the dishes. We also found various items previous people had left behind: a scrunchie on the couch, a Lego on the area rug, and a sock under the couch. The water has a pretty strong iron taste. When I emptied a bottle of the water from the cabin into a white sink, I realized the water was orange. I’m reasonably sure the mouse issue is more of a winter problem.

It was a quiet, peaceful cabin to stage our UP vacation. Great staging point for out Mackinac Island, Pictured Rocks, Tahquamenon Falls, and Beach (sand dunes) vacation. Unplugging the family was need for all of us.

We just got home yesterday after staying here for 6 days. It was absolutely gorgeous! The view and sound of Lake Michigan is great. You can even see Mackinaw Bridge from the shore. Would stay again!

Awesome place and host! We'll be back!

After several stays here, I just can’t wait to get back! So comfortable, great location; secluded yet close to the city and other amenities. Although all you need is a load of firewood and good company. And Mary is the consummate host.

We have visited this cabin 5 times, & it is the PERFECT artists’ retreat for us (we’re both professional musicians). It is bliss every visit. It is clean, & the kitchen is huge & the bed comfy; yet the view, the rocky beach, the soft air, watching freighters go by, the STARS at night(!), make this place the charming magic it is. We adore it!

This property was exactly what we were looking for. Exceeded our expectations. Location was so convenient for what we wanted to do and see. Very peaceful and quiet and was a wonderful place to unwind and unplug. Had two 23year old boys with me and as a mom it was great to see them enjoy it all. They didn’t want to leave that lakefront!!

My family of 4 stayed here for a quick getaway before sending our oldest to college. It was perfect! If you are looking to explore the UP, this is a great place to stay. We took day trips to Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rock and Mackinac Island. We also spent the day at the roadside beaches just west of the cabin along Rt 2. Mary’s place provided a beautiful space to retreat to at the end of the day to watch the sunset and play games. We had a wonderful family vacation!

The home and property were rustic and charming. With the cool nights Air conditioning was not needed however the moisture off the lake kept everything a bit damp. The views from the porch were beautiful and access to the water made a wonderful evening ritual to watch the sunset from the shoreline. The house was equipped with the basics but we needed to bring our own soap, shampoo and hair dryer. Would recommend this property.

This was an amazing cabin and met all of our needs! We loved being away from town but close to all the action of the car show! The views from the backyard were beautiful! We loved exploring everyday and coming back to chill at night and didn’t miss having WiFi at all!

This house has a great view of the lake with privacy. My family and I enjoyed our visit. It’s a great place to sit back and relax.
