Great Weekend
We stayed here as a central location to visit Mackinac Island and the eastern UP. The hosts were lovely, and the unit itself was the perfect size for our family of six. We especially appreciated the easy lake access for morning and evening swims as well as the fire pit for a cookout.

Perfect Location!
This is the perfect location for exploring Michigan! The lake and bridge view are incredible! Hosts are so nice, from bringing us homemade cookies the first day to loaning us bug spray. It took a minute to get used to layout as it is different but after figuring that out the space was great.

Weekend get-away
A trip to Mackinac Island was my Christmas gift to my young nieces and nephews. The venue was clean. The hosts were great, and the access to the lake was perfect! Only 5 minutes from the bridge with a bridge view also from the property shoreline. Would definitely book here again.

Easy place to stay; a few minutes from town. Everything you need for a home base space while touring the area. Rocky beach but great views! We went to a sandy beach for swimming but enjoyed a bonfire and evening relaxing on this beach. Friendly hosts with cookies at arrival.

Scenic, comfortable, well equipped, amazing!
This rental is an outstanding place for folks who want a well equipped, comfortable, incredibly scenic, convenient and quiet home base. It is situated and easy and quick 5 miles from Mackinaw City. We were greeted immediately by the hostess with a plate of delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. We had regular contact with the host AMD he was always available for questions or chatting. The gradually sloping yard ends in a spectacular view of Mackinac, Round and Bois Blanc Islands and the Mackinac bridge, and has a fire ring, lawn chairs and a log swing chair. There is a picnic table and grill next to the unit. We loved the place and will absolutely be returning. One of the best rentals I have ever had, and I've done a few dozen.

Girl’s getaway fun
A 5 group girl’s getaway was so much fun! We were close enough to Mackinac City without all the hustle and bustle of downtown. Owners were on site and very helpful - she even made us cookies. They could use more pillows and. the futon isn’t very comfortable but otherwise our stay was great.

Family beach vacation.
We loved our stay! The beach was perfect and the hosts were so nice and even brought us cookies! We had breakfast and dinner on the beach and it was very close to sites. Very quiet on the property. My only complaint is that the doors would not lock from the inside. Our toddlers did not think of opening the doors, but I was scared they would escape and a slide lock or something would def make me feel better at containing escape artist toddlers. Beds were comfy and loved the hose to rinse the sand.
