Beachfront Cabin on Straits of Mackinac

Our home is located right on the Straits of Mackinac. With scenic views of Mackinac Island, the Mackinac Bridge and the freighters passing, it is the most relaxing getaway. We are located just over a mile away from one of the ferry lines that take you to Mackinac Island and walking distance from the Lumber Jack show. We are right on the water so you have your own beach.

Macinac Beachfront

The house was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the lake and the bridge. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch overlooking the lake and having a full kitchen. On the negative side there was a distinct gas odor in the garage and I would have liked to have extra garbage bags and a few dish towels. I would definitely stay there again!

I loved the patio/sun room. It was quiet and peaceful and the bedrooms, living room,bathroom and kitchen were fine. The garage had a gas odor from the water heater or boiler. The location was great and I'd come back again.

Convenient Mackinaw Respite

Stayed for the first night of a 3 day tour of Northern Michigan. Enjoyable view of the bridge at night with a firepit on shore. Just a couple minutes outside downtown Mackinaw on a quiet residential street.

Loved the view

House was very clean and the view is absolutely breathtaking. The only problem was not hearing back from our host. I had sent her a message a week before asking if there was a coffee pot or Keurig to bring pods but never got a reply. After arriving we tried our absolute best to get the WiFi but it would not connect. I sent her another email with no reply the entire 4 days we were there

Relaxing!

We enjoyed our stay! The location is definitely 5 stars! What to know: the house could use some updates, but there have been some since the pictures have been posted so I think Jodi is working on them! There was no grime or anything as mentioned in other posts. Everything was clean! We enjoyed our night with a fire by Lake Huron - there’s firewood right down the road and some plastic patio chairs. The grass has been recently mowed. No a/c. We were comfortable with windows open and bedroom fans going. We would definitely stay again!

Would not recommend. Poorly kept property. VERY strong natural gas odor. Neglected!!!!

No communication from host. Reached out 4 times before Jodi responded. Overpriced-bath door doesn’t close, no fans, urine odor, broken screens, broken outside furniture, hole in flooring, hole in walls, no ceiling fans in common area, furniture is dilapidated. Grass is overgrown and so many bugs as a result. Wastebasket in kitchen instead of trash can. Could go on and on. Don’t recommend!
