Sunrise Nook
Nestled on the shore of Lake Michigan, this Washington Island log cabin boasts sleeping for up to 7 people: 1 queen bed, 2 full beds, and 1 twin bed. Like most cabin rentals on Washington Island, we provide blankets & pillows, as well as dish & hand towels, but not sheets or bath towels. (See the amenities list for other details). Take a beautiful car ferry from Northport, WI, to relax and unwind in rustic comfort. Sit on the deck or walk along the short boardwalk to watch a gorgeous sunrise; sit around the campfire to enjoy million-star skies. The cabin offers a beautiful propane stove (think: woodstove look without the woodstove mess), as well as electric baseboard heat; full kitchen, comfy living room with a high ceiling & skylights, cards & cribbage & games; no wifi but a great selection of DVDs to enjoy with the whole family. Guests often book both Sunrise Lodge and Sunrise Nook, as they are on neighboring shorefront lots. Each cabin has about 200' of rocky shore with shallow water that is perfect for wading, kayaking or canoeing, and is just right for groups that include young children. Families love to be able to have multi-generational stays with just-enough-but-not-too-much togetherness! ;-)
**** MAXIMUM LENGTH OF STAY IS 15 NIGHTS ****
The cabin is heated and features a patio and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a fireplace.

Very quiet, peaceful location. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, looking at the lake!
It's a beautiful cabin with very cozy rooms. Truly gorgeous wood everywhere. Lots of natural light and gas stoves. Close to the lakefront (with a little wooden cosway trail), quiet, surrounded by very serene natural areas.
Only negative was the smell of sewer gases coming up from the drain whenever the water was running in the bathroom sink, shower, or kitchen sink. It was tolerable but just not so nice to smell that during a shower or when there was running water in a sink. We'd stay there again on a future visit to Washington Island. Overall, a really warm, welcoming place. Very reasonable price.

The Nook was comfy and had a great view of the east side of the island. The tap water does have a rusty smell to it, but I've stayed in other places on the island that also have that problem so it wasn't that big of a deal.
