Beaver Island - The Shorebird
** Please note: The Shorebird is currently being renovated and remodeled to create the perfect family getaway, so you’ll continue to see home improvement and photo updates!
Experience the ultimate retreat at The Shorebird, a spacious four-bedroom, two-bathroom elevated ranch nestled on the serene south end of Beaver Island. Perfectly positioned just across the street from the sparkling shores of Lake Michigan, this home offers breathtaking, unobstructed lake views from its expansive elevated deck. The ideal spot for morning coffee or unforgettable stargazing under the island's renowned dark skies.
Inside, the home is designed for comfort and entertainment, featuring a bright, open layout and a lower-level walkout basement complete with a dedicated game room for family fun. The property features large front and back yards, perfect for unwinding and taking in the tranquil island surroundings
Located in the heart of Beaver Island's natural beauty, you are just a short drive from the historic Beaver Head Lighthouse and the tranquil hiking trails of the south end. While you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the waves from right across the street, the island’s premier swimming destination, Iron Ore Bay, is located just a short distance away. There, you’ll find a sprawling, public sandy beach perfect for a full day of sunbathing and wading in the crystal-clear water. Book your stay at The Shorebird today and discover why Beaver Island is celebrated as "America's Emerald Isle
** Entertainment note: The home has 2 TVs but NO cable service or Wi-Fi. If you’d like to stay in, bring your favorite DVDs or visit the local library, which offers a wide variety of movies for all ages!
During your stay, you have the freedom to explore the Island in different ways. Some visitors opt for biking or hiking, while others choose to reserve a spot for their vehicle on the Ferry/Beaver Island Boat Company. It's ADVISABLE to make these arrangements with the Boat Company WELL IN ADVANCE. Alternatively, renting a vehicle on the Island is just as convenient and hassle-free.
