About this property

NEW LISTING! WATERFRONT LAKE HURON w/ covered dock. Close to Mackinac Island

Rustic log cabin on the protected shores of Lake Huron located at the West entrance to the Les Cheneaux Island chain. An ideal location for day trips to Mackinac Island, Tahquamenon Falls, Sault Locks, Pictured Rocks, and more!

Bring your boat to explore the 39 islands of the beautiful Les Cheneaux Island chain, or rent locally. Your private deep-water covered dock can accommodate multiple boats. Additionally, the main dock can support vessels 50 ft plus and is excellent for fishing.

This property includes picnic tables, outdoor seating, and ample lawn space to spread out. Volleyball, badminton, bocce ball, croquet, and other outdoor activities are included. The beach area gradually slopes, making it perfect for the little ones to play in the water and sand. (Beach towels and a limited supply of life jackets are available in many sizes)

Step inside to see modern amenities mixed with an antique charm uniquely characteristic of an authentically built log cabin. The kitchen boasts new stainless steel appliances - 6 burner professional gas range/oven, large convection toaster oven/air fryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, and deep sink, fully equipped with everything you need to prepare family dinners with ease.

Move into the sitting area, perfect for social gatherings, with access to the screened porch overlooking the bay. For family entertainment, there's a separate game room with a large-screen TV, bar, refrigerator, and shuffleboard table. The game room decor is a favorite of hunters and admirers of North American big game - mountain lion, elk, moose, Kodiak grizzly, big horn sheep, and other mounts surround this space.
The pantry/laundry room has a convenient utility sink and a new extra-large capacity washer and dryer - limited supply of HE soap provided.
