This was very nice cottage with spectacular views of Huron Bay. A perfect location, close to everything the area has to offer. Waterfalls, hiking, and Mouth of the Huron River. The cottage was very relaxing with everything we needed for a wonderful vacation!

This was our second stay here, and just as impressive as the first! The house is beautiful with nearly every window giving you a view of the Huron Bay and all the comforts you would expect (and more). The grounds are spacious and well maintained, and also offer you many perspectives of the bay to enjoy sunsets and stars!! The hosts are friendly, attentive and offered great communication. I don't think we have stayed in a more completely fantastic VRBO ever and we are already looking forward to next year's stay. So book a stay, you won't be disappointed!

Great time on Lake Superior

The cottage is right on the bank of Huron Bay. Great sunsets and just a great place to spend time relaxing and enjoying nature. We had 5 eagles, at the same time, right in front of the cottage. Truly a top vacation getaway

Cozy, clean and welcoming. A private beach is just steps from the back door at this amazing lake home. Be sure to have your camera close by for amazing and picturesque snapshots! Loons, Eagles, Merganser ducks, geese, Nuthatches, Flickers, foggy mornings, colorful sunsets and the ever changing water of the lake make for a nature lover’s paradise. Bring your groceries for meals and stay in, you won’t want to leave. We’ll be back!

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT

Very clean and cozy, located perfectly in the area we wanted to our week long Waterfall tour. Host and owners very extremely kind and helpful in every way. The house had everything we needed along with the most amazing view for Northern Lights, Rainbows and a few bald eagles. Highly recommend this location, we for sure will stay again every chance we get.

Such a lovely place on Huron Bay! We so appreciated having everything we needed for our stay at hand. Perfectly outfitted kitchen, plenty of towels, and basic toiletries. The house is comfortable and offers a lovely view and access to the bay. Owner was close by and interested in our comfort. Loved the patio, but bummed we didn’t get to use the kayaks. Maybe next time:)

SUNSET BEACH

Quaint, clean and beautiful. You will not be disappointed in this property as it is very close to the water and well maintained. Home has everything you and your family will need- WiFi, beach, dock and cooking necessities. We had our grandchildren up from Houston and really enjoyed the porch/ dining room. Even caught enough lake trout for a fish fry!

Our Best Stay Yet

Over the past few years we have stayed in a lot of VRBOs across the UP all have been good experiences, but this stay was the best we have had yet! The grounds were BEAUTIFUL! There is many outdoor living spaces available to enjoy the Huron Bay, including a deck off the loft above the garage for a little different perspective. The house was comfortable and charming with beautiful views of this bay from nearly every room. It was equipped with everything you needed to enjoy your stay including modern conveniences like WiFi. This is the perfect home base if you want to explore the west end of the UP. You are less than 2 hours to anywhere on the Keweenaw Peninsula, a hour and a half from the Porkies and close to many other iconic UP destinations. If you prefer to stick closer to home, Mt. Arvon and too many waterfalls to list are right out this property's back door. The check in was easy snd the host was attentive, checking a couple of times to see how our stay was goong and offering her help if anything comes up. We also met the owners and they were friendly and helpful. Do yourself a favor and book a stay at this property, we hope to make it an annual visit!!
