When it comes to things to do and places to go that are located nearby, where do we start There are so many fun and enjoyable options which is why so many people choose the “Tip of the Mitt” as their favorite place to vacation and recreate. It truly is the outdoorsman’s paradise. There are miles of hiking and biking trails as well as many nearby lakes and rivers for boating and fishing adventures. Cheboygan is blessed to be on the northern end of an extensive inland waterway that flows for forty miles through three rivers and three large lakes. There are marinas located all along the waterway offering pontoon boat and jet ski rentals. Cheboygan Golf and Country Club, a five mile drive, is a beautiful public 18-hole course. There are many other fine golfing venues in the area. Mackinaw City is an easy 30 minute drive where you can catch a ferry to the famous Mackinac Island, or tour the historic Fort Michilimackinac or browse through the many unique shops that line the streets. Take the breathtaking drive across the Mackinac Bridge and visit the quaint city of St. Ignace and other sites in the Upper Peninsula. The Headlands International Dark Park is a favorite destination for star gazers. Or simply kick back and relax on your own private sandy swimming beach on the bay. The list goes on and on so check out our “Welcome Book” and collection of pamphlets we maintain at the house for more complete information about all the local attractions nearby.

What a beautiful location. Very peaceful and the view can't be beat, close to everything but feels secluded.
Beautiful home. Clean, clean, clean! Beautiful setting. Everything was as pictured. Nice to have kayaks. Kitchen well stocked with everything to cook. Lots of extras; paper products provided, soaps and bath wash provided, laundry need’s provided. Highly recommend this property. Hope to be able to return.
Perfect location. Just minutes away from so many fun things to do. Beautiful bay with sandy beach, calm warm waters. Hiking trails/state park at end if the street. Two included kyacks were a huge hit with our group. Every detail thought of by the owner to make the home truly feel like home. Cannot wait to go back.
Great well maintained property at a great location. Our family had a great time..
We loved our stay at this home. Everything was very neat and clean, and it was stocked with all of the essentials that we needed. The location is amazing, right on the water and in close proximity to other tourist areas. The owners were so easy and great to communicate with - highly recommend and we would definitely come back here!
The property was beautiful and the owners a pleasure to work with. It was very peaceful and quiet.
The property had a beautiful view and the host made our stay easy and delightful. The house was super clean and very well stocked with any items you may need for the perfect vacation. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to stay in the cheboygan/mackinaw area.
The property has a great view. Clean and plenty of room for everyone to move about. Thanksgiving was really nice and we had everything we needed. Property managers were very attentive and responsive. We really enjoyed our stay.
The views from the house of Duncan Bay were awesome. We stayed cozy warm inside the house and enjoyed the big windows to watch the few ships passing through the bay. The neighborhood was quiet. A surprise was the hidden entrance to Cheybogan State park at the end of the dead end street. The house was stocked with everything we needed. Plus. the homeowner even checked on us during the high winds and stormy night. The house is only 30 minutes to Mackinaw City and a quick ferry ride to Mackinaw Island. Its a short drive into downtown Cheybogan where we visited the farmers market in the city square.
We really enjoyed our stay. It was quiet and just perfect for our long weekend. Wouldn't have changed a thing.
We had a great time! Super clean. We had everything that we needed. Owner kept in touch, and was available in case we needed anything. Wouldn’t hesitate to visit again and probably will.
Beautiful house and property. Awesome lake view. We were able to watch the ducks and swans on the lake right out in front of the house. Rooms are very spacious and comfortable. And the owners are very nice. It was a joy to stay here.
We loved staying at the Sandy Beach house. There was plenty of space to spread out and relax, a well-stocked kitchen to make our meals, and was cleaner than my own house! Patrick and Jean were very welcoming and were quick to answer any questions we had. When we arrived there were very strong winds off the lake, but the house was cozy and quiet. Patrick came the next day to clean up the beach, leaving it pristine (even though it was far too cold to be swimming anyways!). Thanks for the great stay!
This was the perfect place for our family vacation. The view of the bay was incredible! The house was very clean and seemed to have everything we needed for our stay! The bedrooms were very comfortable, and accommodating and fit our needs perfectly. The owners were very responsive to our questions! We have been staying in this area for the past 11 years and this was by far the best place we’ve stayed at!
My family was looking forward to Labor Day weekend at the beach. The house’s position, clear water, beautiful view with sandy beach and the clean house made it even better than we imagine. It was a wonderful long weekend.
The house was even better than the pictures. Beautiful views.
We got lucky in finding this gem a day or two after Jean and Patrick made the property available on VRBO. Jean and Patrick were great to work with and very responsive. They put a lot of thought into making the property and accommodations perfect. The property itself is ideal for families – a quiet street, a wonderful beach, 4 bedrooms, 2 tables for dining (or playing cards!), a spacious deck and yard, etc. My mom and I kayaked out to the rock wall (edge of the bay) and saw the bridge. There is a long beach hike that you can take in the nearby State Park. Of course, we also swam, had a bonfire, and played a lot of corn-hole. We highly recommend Jean and Patrick’s property and would certainly consider staying there again!
My sister, our brother, his wife and their two teenage daughters and I stayed for a week. I had a great, relaxing time. The cabin looked exactly as pictured. The lake access was terrific. It is a shallow entry so it is only knee deep about 50 yards. The sunsets were so beautiful. The cabin was well stocked with kitchen tools. There were toys, games and some movies on dvd. Pat and Jean were responsive to all of our questions and wonderful to work with. I am a first time VRBO user and this was the best possible experience thanks to Pat & Jean. Cheryl
This beach property was perfect for our family vacation Up North!! Great location with awesome views of Duncan Bay and great sunsets. The house was very nice and clean and spacious. Would definitely stay here again!!
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this property, and I highly recommend it. The home is updated and very nice, with many thoughtful touches and details. We absolutely had everything we needed, and more. The furniture is comfortable and the kitchen contains everything you need for preparing meals. The beach is beautiful, and the water is shallow for a ways out, so it is safe for kids. Even the neighbors were quite friendly! But perhaps the best thing about this home is the owners, Jean and Patrick. We can't say enough good things about them - their kindness, generosity, and prompt attention to even small details was amazing. We would rent this house from them again without a second thought (and we hope to!).
The Beach house was perfect! The layout was great, and it was very clean. The beach was amazing and the lake was all mostly sandy and shallow for a long way out. The owners were very nice and accommodating. Tons of great memories were made here. We will definitely be back
