Makwa North in St Ignace – God’s Country by Mackinac Island

We loved every minute.

Nice place

We loved it.

Once again, a great stay at this property. The neighborhood is quiet, the house is clean and warm... I have zero complaints.

Pros: right off snowmobile trail (just go straight down the road and you are on it)Tvs with streaming, wifi, functional kitchen.Host is very good with communication!Cons: old house so issue with heating (main floor bedrooms get COLD if you close the door), house foundation is settled? and everything is now leaning. Upstairs 'bedrooms' have no privacy, they are open, no doors, maybe put up even a curtain?Living room lacks seating for how many people the house sleeps. It worked for what we needed but one in our group does construction work so he practically had convulsions. I understood why the price was so good and was willing to accept. Maybe add small baseboard heaters to the main floor bedrooms for winter time. It was EXCEPTIONALLY cold when we stayed (morning temp was -5 with windchills in the -15-20). Check in/out was easy. Issues that we had that were resolvable the host fixed asap. Everything was clean and safe.

This place feels like a home, not just a house. The decor and fireplace make you feel like you're staying at a friend's place. The host is more than accommodating and very easy to reach. I have booked this listing multiple times and will continue to do so as long as it's available.

Very nice cabin stayed here for a trip snowmobiling over exceeded my expectations easy entry and exit would definitely go again

Very good place close to trailhead

I stayed here in early January of 2026. The house is extremely comfortable and located in a quiet neighborhood. I could not have been more pleased.

Great property to stay at! Good location and a very reliable host!

Our host was very friendly and very quick to respond to questions and concerns. The location was wonderful.

So lovely. Lots of room. Very comfortable. Good location.

Wonderful home, clean and warm. Only negative was the spatula was missing, so scrambled eggs it is!

Very cute clean house. Great location. It was a very quick walk to the ferry and also walking distance to the shops downtown. We really appreciated the fenced in back yard and the fact the the fences we tall and secure. No worries about our dogs making an escape.

The house location near the ferry was very convenient.

Everything was great. It’s an older home, but location is perfect!

Great location and stay!

Very pleased with our stay!

Stayed here during the Antique Tractor Bridge Crossing.Perfect location! Walkable from where we parked our tractors, the Island Ferry and restaurants. Plenty of room for everyone. Adorable little house. hopefully will be able to stay here again!

The home was as described very clean and cozy. Good location to see all that St. Ignace has to offer would and would highly recommend it.

We truly enjoyed the location and fenced in yard for our small pups. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this home.

Exactly as described, a super cozy stay for a quick family weekend!

Lots of space! Quiet, residential location. Convenient to downtown, especially the ferry docks.

We weren’t aware that there was no air conditioning and it was very hot and humid, which made sleeping difficult.

Stay was as descr

Great back yard and cool property

The property matched the description and photos, and was easy to find. The home was spotless and very cozy, we instantly felt welcome and comfortable. Even though it does not have AC, the breeze coming off the lake kept it cool which is critical for sleep if you ask us! The fenced in backyard was perfect for our pup, and a great place to grill and chill with privacy. The walk to Sheppler's ferry is a hop, skip, and a jump which we loved along with all the shops and restaurants. We had a very memorable stay and recommend this home!!

Very clean nice house. Worked perfect for our needs!

Everything was great. Quiet neighborhood, Well kept older home. Easy walk to the downtown area and ferry's. Took a pet invisible fence and it worked great.

My teen- college kids and us parents stayed for four nights, with our dogs! We used the house as home base and explored across the bridge in Petoskey, St Ignace itself, and up to Taqhemenon falls- we stopped at Cut River bridge before arriving Wednesday night too. The house was just right for us- parents and dogs downstairs, teens upstairs- we made dinner the first night, as we arrived late and a lot of our restaurant options were closed- we had everything we needed to cook, and made our breakfasts before going out for the day. Thanks so much, we had a great time- even used the fire pit one night for s’mores!

It was described accurately. Could use more seating in the living room and definitely mirrors in the bedrooms. The neighborhood was old however walking distance to restaurants and ferry was great. Fireplaces put out great heat and the kitchen was fully stocked with all appliances.

This home was well stocked and very clean. The location is in a nice quiet neighborhood walking distance to the Ferry and local shops and restaurants

Spacious place. Had what you needed to make meals. Only a Keurig, so you need pods if you want your own coffee. There's different temperatures throughout the home, which was hard to keep everyone comfortable. Check in is super simple. Great communication with host. Was very clean. Comfortable for us. Overall great experience.

We had a nice stay. Great location. Very comfortable. Enjyed the unique woodsy decorations.

My husband and I had an amazing time. We would highly recommend to family and friends!!

Great property, fenced in back yard is great.

We had 6 people and felt very comfortable. It was cheaper than staying in a hotel and I would definitely consider staying there again.

It was amazing.

Property was clean, sturdy, and very easy to navigate. The bedroom i slept in was nice and cold while the rest of the house was warm. Overall great experience

Very clean and easy to find. Located close to shops and resturants.

My siblings and I, plus our doggos, just loved this home! You can tell how well-loved it is, and it has so much unique character. Perfect location to just walk to the ferry, as well as the shops and restaurants. After a long day on Mackinac Island, we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the yard with a big box of fudge. Highly recommend - your family will love it too.

One bathroom was the hardest part. Honestly if the owner just added a half bath it would really help the property. Also put a mirror in another room. The only mirror in the entire house is in that one bathroom.

This house is exactly as described. A clean property/home and the location was ideal.

Perfect location for visiting Mackinac Island and surrounding area. And we loved that we could spend our evenings in the back yard around a fire...cooking up smore's. Highly recommend.

This house was perfect for my husband and me. It was clean, quiet, and away from the crowd while being still in town close to the ferry and to services. Thank you!

Sweet home. Quaint, slightly slanted floors. Clean. Keurig coffee maker only so bring Keurig pods!! It was nice to have 4 complimentary pods there. Sleeps 7 but living room seating for 4. Over all very nice. 5 stars.

We had a 2 night stay with friends, it was nice and clean. They did mention the sloped floors and low ceilings which are true. Because of that, it maybe be a little uncomfortable for someone aboue 6'3 or 6'4. It would be nice to have a couple chairs out on the deck. Overall, it's a nice place to stay.
