I was not expecting the view to be so beautiful! Even though it was more out of the way than expected, the peacefulness and quiet were much needed!

Absolutely stunning location, just steps away from the beach. The cabin itself is larger than I had imagined and while needing some TLC (rescreening a couple of the windows [front door, and right front window], updating/replacing the lazy boy) was perfectly cozy and charming and we loved our 6-day stay.As indicated, the cabin is right on Lake Michigan within a bay. Because the sand bar goes out for more than 100 feet it is absolutely perfect for dogs and kiddos, if you have them :) While there are several cabins along the shore, there are fairly dense woods between them, and during the weekday we rarely saw other folks, which was great for our nervous/reactive dog. Such a tranquil location for all!The cabin was well-equipped with everything we needed and we had zero issues with water conservation with just the two of us. On the down side, when it was hot and humid, it was difficult to cool the cabin down with just one box fan and with the windows closed up on our arrival, it was very musty smelling.All said, we would definitely stay here again! The rental company was fantastic to deal with and our check in and communication was flawless.Tips: Bring water shoes! The sand is smooshy pretty far out, and layered with flat shale(?) in other places. Super-interesting geology!The Dairy-Flo in Rapid River had fabulous ice cream and great service and we highly recommend it! Bring cash though, as they don't take plastic.

Wonderful and secluded for. Wonderful and secluded for the Week!

Such a special time staying here. We had a lot of days where we didn't even move because we rested so well. The accomodations are great for two people. I don't know how more than that might be able to shower each day because water situation but we had no problems. We grilled out and enjoyed the beach and beautiful outdoors all week.

Beautiful property with everything you need. Everything was so comfortable and it felt like home. We took our dogs and really enjoyed everything about our stay, especially the private beach. I would recommend bringing groceries. There's a Dollar Store and a Circle K about 30 minutes away, but nothing any closer. We look forward to going back someday.

Great spot!

Love this place, will definitely be back. For the two of us it was perfect. Love being on the lake/beach and being able to use the canoe. It’s a great cozy home. Only contacted them regarding a few things but always quick response!

Weekend Getaway

Was nice and quiet visit, loved being on the beachfront. If it was cold enough the fireplace would've been used, instead we made use of the firepit outside. Definitely would visit again, only a 40 minute drive away from Escanaba and a nice county drive into the peninsula.

Beautiful view, quiet location

This was the perfect getaway for our family. It was peaceful, with a beautiful view and quiet location. It felt very private. The cottage was clean, well maintained, and comfortable. We enjoyed the beach and sunsets. One day we drove to Munising for Pictured Rocks and the glass bottom boat shipwreck tour.
