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

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.

Waterfront Cottage

Such a cozy comfortable cottage! Relaxing homey decor and calm quiet location; house is right on the water. Such a joy to look out across St. Martin's Bay. The bay is very shallow and we saw a bald eagle fishing! Lots of diving ducks too. Great binoculars provided upstairs and downstairs. Far far away in the distance you can see Mackinac Island, and also the Mackinac Bridge, all lighted up at night. We just loved gazing out on the water stretching far off into the distance, with the colors always changing with the ever-changing light on the water. We even made use of one of the canoes for an extra-special adventure! Gorgeous stars at night, the sky is nice and dark (except of course when the moon is casting her beautiful shining diamonds upon the water). Inside there is lots of cool lake decor, including cute dishes shaped like fish. There is a big refrigerator and freezer, very nice new stove, excellent coffee maker too. Fun signs with quotes and lake themes throughout the house. Original paintings as well! Wonderful porch for sitting and watching the waves. The lawn was lovely and green for our visit. This is such a great laid-back type of place to come relax and enjoy the beauty of Lake Huron and lovely St. Martin's Bay. Thank you for having us back again! We definitely hope to return!

Quiet spot on the lake

The location was perfect, steps from the lake. Sitting on the porch listening to the waves was super relaxing. We also enjoyed the canoes and paddleboat, the water was nice and calm in the mornings for us to enjoy a little canoe trip. The yard was in good shape, despite the tough summer drought. We enjoyed the location, just 15 minutes from St. Ignace and the boat ferry to Mackinaw Island. 40 minutes from the Soo Locks and Sault St Marie. The cabin was nice, has everything you need. The updates are good, and the cabin is better than some of the photos on the listing. The property owners were very responsive as well. Thanks for a great time!

Cozy Comfortable Home on the Water

I hate to share the secret of how wonderful this place is, but this is such a gorgeous location. You are DIRECTLY on the water! The house is very large, cozy and comfortable, like being in your own home. Beautiful living room with sofas and easy chairs for relaxing, plus a fireplace too! There is a big dining-room table for eating and playing games in front of huge lake-view windows, along with a very large well-stocked kitchen with everything you might need for cooking. You will save a ton of money if you cook a few meals there. We even found a blender for smoothies! Everything was extremely clean and well cared-for. I could imagine this large comfortable house being perfect for families with children. Even in stormy weather this location would be gorgeous and cozy and fun! Pristine new washer and dryer is such a nice bonus for travelers, along with two separate showers and plenty of hot water. Extra beach towels are provided. The whole place is decorated with cute lake/boating themes, and the owner is extremely friendly and so helpful too. We are already planning to go back! Still seeing this beautiful spot in my dreams. Lovely and quiet and peaceful surroundings, a place to make memories. Also an easy drive to the St. Ignace ferries for Mackinac Island (that is if you can bear to tear yourself away from the serene beauty of St. Martin's Bay :) Far more beautiful location than the pictures convey.
