Great location for our family vacation! The cabin was plenty big enough for our family and the view is amazing! We especially enjoyed the bird watching! My only comment would be things weren’t super clean upon our arrival - mainly kitchen items (ie. coffee pot) and the living room floor had a decent amount of dog hair all over.

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!!

Quiet, beautiful and off the beaten path!

We stayed with our brothers and their families. We had two kids with us, and they loved the house. We were in town for the car show in St. Ignace and enjoyed being out of town and away from all of the noise at night. The location was beautiful and peaceful. We got to see the fireworks show from the back porch over the water which was nice too!

A scenic view of Lake Huron

The view of Lake Huron from the 3 bed, 2 bath house was incredible. Pictures don't do the place justice. There was no internet, but there was cell reception and was no problem for us. The house is located on the shore of Lake Huron and the setting invites hours of conversation, relaxation, and fun. My family and I had a lovely time there.

Great family get away

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

This is a lovely cabin that is right on Lake Huron. Pictures do not do the property justice! You can tell this is a beloved family cabin and well cared for. It has all the amenities you would need for a peaceful getaway. Very clean! Short drive to St. Ignace. I would definitely recommend!!

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.

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.
