About this property

Historic Home / Private Beach / Nestled on Lake Michigan / Mackinaw Bridge Views

Enjoy the peace of this historical stone cottage located on Lake Michigan. This home is nestled within Wilderness State Park, offering a wide range of activities from biking & hiking to kayaking & fishing. A private beach and views of the Mackinaw Bridge make it the perfect getaway. Take in the sunset from around the campfire or enjoy the beautiful scenery from the enclosed porch. Located just 12 miles from Mackinaw City, there's something for everyone with dining, shopping and excursions.

A starter set of supplies provided - dish soap, sponge, garbage bags, paper towel, laundry pods and rolls of toilet paper.

While you have complete privacy in the main house, please note that we occasionally stay in a RV located on the property. We are readily available should you need anything, but will otherwise respect your space.

We're happy to give recommendations of things to do and see as well as restaurants we love. We hope you enjoy your stay and enjoy this special place as much as we do!

It was an amazing place! So much more fun than we had hoped. The view was unbelievable and away from any noise. We are definitely going back next year.
