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.

Weekend Get-Away for Bridge Walk
This cute cabin was exactly what we needed for the Labor Day Bridge Walk. The sound of the lake coming through the windows at night and views of the bridge from the porch = perfect "up north" feeling. Communication with the owners and their daughters was always prompt and helpful. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!

Thank you! Great stay
Great stay. We used this property as a launching pad to visit Mackinac Island. It took us about 15 minutes to get to the ferry from the house. The property has a beautiful view and is well-kept inside. It has everything you need. There are neighbors on both sides of the house, but please note the property is really isolated from neighborhoods and the hustle and bustle of city life. The entrance street is a gravel road that is a little tricky. I recommend not going to the house late at night for the first time. It might be hard to find. I gave this property a 5-star review. It was perfect for our needs. Thank you to the hosts!

Beautiful Location
This is a beautifully located, very nice home. We had a wonderful time. Bird watching was amazing from eagles, to osprey, to kingfishers, to the usual geese terns, and gulls. The kids loved playing in the clean, shallow water. Viewing the Mackinac Bridge and the fireworks from the living room was an added bonus!

Great little cottage on the bay
Just a cute, little cottage on the bay with a view of the Bridge in the distance. Quiet, out of the way of crowds, but close enough to St. Ignace for all of the touristy things. Perfect for relaxing and watching the swans, eagles and gulls going about their daily lives. All of the necessities are there, the check in/out was super easy. The table is perfect for playing games and so many are provided, and the kitchen has plenty of room for helpers. This is our second stay (first was 4 years ago) and it was just as we remembered. If we ever go to the UP again, we’ll stay here for sure.

UP Getaway
This was our first visit to the UP, and we couldn't have been happier with this lovely home. It was spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated. The views from every window were amazing! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch to watch the sea birds and geese fly overhead and to see the Mighty Mac in the distance. This was a great "home base" for us to explore the beauty and several of the attractions of the UP. We were very happy with this rental home and highly recommend it and the area to others. Thank you for sharing it with our family!

2nd Stay
This was my second stay at this property. Both experiences couldn’t have been better. The property is such a fantastic place to be away from everything and just enjoy God’s creation. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Eagles fighting over fish they catch out the back window. Ducks migrating by the thousands. A mink fishing among the rocks. Fox darting along the road. Cool, crisp fresh air. Fall colors that can’t be matched. Star-filled night skies. Snowfall, wind and waves. Views of the Mac Bridge. My stay was a month so I got to enjoy a lot of different days at the property. Each day is new and different. You’re about 20 minutes from groceries in St Ignace or Cedarville (a little less expensive but not as much selection). East access to I-75 gets you to places you want to go. You can stay but don’t take my time. :) I’ll be back.
