Great little spot. Rustic but clean and the lake is great. Close to Mackinaw. Richie the owner was great to deal with.

Stayed 2 nights and 3 days. Had a great time, location is good and lake is great for boating, swimming and fishing.

Enjoyed the lake and fire pit, even though we picked a time when the weather chose to be rainy and cool. The cabin was comfy and Richie very friendly and helpful.

The owner is awesome! The property is in the process of being fixed up. Beautiful views and definite charm. If you like rustic glamping this is the place for you. Pet friendly too!!!!!

I love the simplicity of these cabins as a place to clean up, cook, and relax after a long day of fishing. Perfect setting. Thanks Ritchie!

We came up for an ice fishing trip, and this rustic little cabin was more than we needed. It was perfect in every way. The gas woodstove kept the entire cabin warm and the lake is quite literally 6 feet out the back door. 10 minutes from the Mackinaw Bridge. Perfect, just a perfect little place. The owner was kind enough to greet us the day we arrived and even came out to chat as we were packing up 4 days later. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Owner was friendly, cabin was clean, beautiful view of carp lake right from bed. Will be staying here again in the future without a doubt!

Can't wait to come back!

Great view

Pros: The cabin is charming. The property manager was very nice and on top of any requests. The lake view is phenomenal and the location is desirable. It's about 6 miles from Mackinac City. The cons: The grounds are cluttered and less than desirable to look at. There is minimal to no money being put into the cabins. We had a piece of cloth nailed around the faucet to keep it up, paper towel lining the old repainted windows. Our bed had a huge dip in the middle and the bedding was stained on both beds. I still have it four stars, we would stay again if a much cheaper rate was available. Summer would be better because you get the use of the lake.

The bedding was exceptionally clean. The cottage is old but on a beautiful lake. The coffee cups really need to be replaced with new.

Took my daughter and Grandson for a few days Up North. Grandson made friends with other kids his age and had so much fun swimming, collecting shells, and fishing off the dock (which was right in front of our cabin). The cabin was perfect for us! My daughter and I each had our own room and my Grandson slept on the futon. The cabin was close to everywhere we wanted go. It was just about 10 minutes from the Bridge. The manager, Ritchie, was there to greet us when we arrived, and was friendly and helpful all through our stay. Will definitely stay here again!

Quiet and peaceful. Enjoyed the lake and the cabin was cozy.

The lake view was great. I had a good time just watching all the ducks on the lake.

Some people might like *rustic* but this was too much for us. I don’t think anything has been done to the cabin in regards to basic upkeep in years. Such a nice place on the lake, but that’s about it. Richie was very nice but some paint, new screens to replace the ones with the holes and at least 1 lamp would be an easy and inexpensive way to ‘update’ the cabin.

Myself, my husband, my 16 month old, my parents, and my brother all stayed in this little cabin. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location can't be beat. We loved swimming, floating on tubes, canoeing, and paddle boarding on the lake. The equipment rental on the property is another huge plus! Sunrises can't be beat. A quick 10 minute drive to Mackinaw City. The floor could have been a bit cleaner upon arrival, but with the location you expect a bit of dirt to make its way inside from time to time, and there was a broom and dustpan on the property. Ritchie was so wonderful and gave us recommendations whenever we asked, and even turned his colorful outdoor lights on a bit early for my toddler to enjoy! He made himself so accessible during our stay. While we'd love to see a few updates to the floors and windows, we would definitely recommend and would happily stay again.

Great location, clean with perfect amenities!

This cabin is a throwback to the good old days. Back door is feet from the lake. Lots of ducks, geese, loons and even a muskrat swam by. Water is very clear. Wish it had been warm enough to swim. Don't expect luxury here, but it has everything you need for a relaxing vacation.

It was a cute little cabin. It is just old and efficient. Could use small updates.

My wife and I stayed at the cabin for one night. I was worried she wouldn’t like it because it is old and a little rough around the edges but she loved it and it had everything we needed and watching the sun rise above the frozen lake was just a bonus. Hopefully we can make it back there in the summer time.
