We totally enjoyed our stay at the lakefront property. The sunrises and sunsets were spectacular. We had seven of us. The dining room table was ample big for meals and several hours of cards. The bedrooms were ample in size with great views of the lake out the windows. The locations served us well to kayak the Soo Locks and walk the narnia trail near cedarville. The suggestion given to eat at cattail cove was a good suggestion.

Lovely Home on Lake Huron

My friend and I stayed here for two nights. The home was lovely and had every extra imaginable - lovely decor, waffle maker, games cabinet, water shoes, cozy beds, and wonderful views of the lake (just to name a few). The house was very clean and just as described in the listing. There's a new swing near the shore as well. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!!

What a perfect location to stay for my daughter-in-law's first ever trip to Mackinac Island! Loved the view, the location, and the peaceful mornings with coffee, a book and the lake to start your day! We cannot wait to come back!

Wonderful stay

The blue cabin was amazing, and our family had an awesome time. The pictures don't do it justice. We stayed there for 2 nights, but we could've easily stayed for more. The water activities are endless for the kids, and the shallow water was great for kayaking, swimming, etc. This cabin is a real treasure, and the family of owners are excellent people.

This property was perfect for us to be able to show off the beautiful landscape of Michigan to our family from down south. The location was perfect for us to do day trips to a few sights of the U.P. and then to relax on the waters edge at the end of the day. It could not have been better.

This property was so thoughtfully stocked and prepped with everything you could possibly need or want. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home. No wifi was only rough on my 9 year old daughter the rest of us agree it was not an issue. Our only gripe is we couldn’t stay longer. You will not be disappointed

Hessel wooden boat show trip

Rented this for a long weekend so we could attend the Les Cheneaux Hessel Wooden Boat Show. The house was very clean, the view to the lake was beautiful. Easy to find directions and a quick trip with our boat into the show. Our only complaint was with the weather, we missed the warmer days by about 2 days either side of our stay. We would definitely recommend this place and stay they again!

Nice 3 day stay with 3 boys and grandparents

We loved having a view of Lake Huron from every window, the swing out front facing the water. having air conditioning, having a full kitchen, and having two bathrooms. We also loved that there were two canoes for our family to go out on the lake. The bay was very shallow a long distance out so we felt very safe with our younger kids . The water was mucky, but nice and warm. Overall we had a great stay.

Beautiful Location

This is a beautifully located, very nice home. We had a wonderful time. Bird watching was amazing from eagles, to osprey, to kingfishers, to the usual geese terns, and gulls. The kids loved playing in the clean, shallow water. Viewing the Mackinac Bridge and the fireworks from the living room was an added bonus!
