About this property

Million Dollar View Cottage

Sweet 1 room cottage with full kitchen and bathroom with shower. Located on the waterfront of Lake Huron.

This cozy little cottage is perfect for two! It sits right on the water's edge of beautiful Lake Huron in scenic northern Michigan. Tucked away between Mackinaw City and Cheboygan, this little gem offers incomparable views of Mackinac Island and the Mighty Mackinac Bridge. There are 5 acres and over 330 feet of frontage on the aquamarine lake. The beach is private and the cottage is peaceful and quiet - a perfect getaway for 2. The cottage is one-room with a queen-size bed and dresser, a small kitchen and dining area and a bathroom with a shower. Enjoy a good book on the front porch or sunbathe in the spacious yard. Bring your bikes because if you cross the street, you are on a 62 mile bike/hike trail that runs from Gaylord to Mackinaw. Feel free to bring your canoe or kayak and put in right on the beach for a carefree day of peaceful paddling. The cottage is located halfway between the Village of Mackinaw City and Cheboygan, where you can enjoy shopping, dining, museums or just an evening ice cream cone at one of the many shops in town.

The property is shared with 3 other units (VRBO 573662, 609883, 871262) which are also available for rent but located a good distance away. Lem's Paradise #1, Lem's Paradise #2 and Little Lem's share the property and 335 feet of frontage on Lake Huron. You can rent any of them separately or together if you need extra space for a large family gathering. (There are beds for a total of 18) All bedding, linens, dishes, etc. are included.


*We have opted to offer Damage Insurance at the cost of $55 for your stay in lieu of a refundable security deposit. It will be listed under fees as "Damage Insurance".

*WILDLIFE DISCLAIMER*

Coming to beautiful Northern Michigan includes the possibility of wildlife encounters. We have midges, spiders, mosquitos, occasionally black flies and an assortment of other insects. We spray regularly to keep them at a manageble level but we also don't want to damage the fragile ecosystem here. Note that where there is water, there will be spiders. They are very industrious and can build back a knocked down web within a day!
They are also great for controlling mosquitos and wasps, which we appreciate.

We treasure the wildness of the North and perhaps that is what attracts you.

Consider yourself lucky if you catch a glimpse of any of our other wild neighbors - black bear, wolves, deer, elk, coyote, fox, bobcats, porcupine, skunks, raccoons, eagles, hawks, squirrels, chipmunks and mice as well as a massive variety of birds.

We ask you to consider this before booking one of our cottages or cabins.

The presence of wildlife is part of the experience here and does not warrant a refund.

Bob and Deb were awesome. They made us feel very special, and made it a very memorable stay. It is the perfect location for easy access to Mackinaw city, and Mackinac Island. The cabin we stayed in was very quaint, and it really does have a million dollar view!

We had a wonderful time! The view was excellent (as advertised) and the property managers were so kind a helpful. We locked ourselves out while having our morning coffee on the porch and we were let back in in five minutes! It was a great area as well, and we took the Marshalls fudge recommendation which was fantastic. Would highly recommend this property for a relaxed stay!

This cute and cozy cottage was the perfect getaway for my husband and I. It was perfectly clean and had all the things we needed for our 5 night stay. There are nice big windows to let in the breeze or AC is available if warmer. We enjoyed going down to the water, listening to the waves, and taking in the gorgeous views. The owners were so friendly and available if anything was needed. The location was perfect and we visited Mac City, Mac island, the UP and the dark sky park. We hope to stay again someday soon!

Cute little cottage. We had some issues with tripping breakers and some issues with hot water in the shower but otherwise great.

Pat, we were disappointed with the poor scores for your stay. It's always better for everyone if guests let us know of any issues as soon as they are found out. The owner would have been there in a flash to take care of them. The tripped breakers were likely due to plugging 2 space heaters into the same outlet. The owner would have been able to advise you on that. The hot water heater was repaired and future guests should be fine. Regards, Diane

Thanks for your review.. TV service is spotty depending on weather. Most of the time it’s good and gets the major networks. But awesome WiFi and a smart TV work great. We also provide a DVD player with numerous DVD’s for your entertainment.

Great little cottage with a gigantic view!

Enjoyed my mornings and evenings, looking out at the view with my beverage of choice. This was a central location to visit many areas in northern Michigan and the UP. The owners were very friendly and informational. The cottage was clean and comfortable and whatever you needed was nearby but you felt like you were very secluded because of the location near the lake. We definitely have this one on our list of favorites.

The name of the property says it all!! The one room cabin was a perfect get away. There was access to the bike trail directly across the street and the 7 mile bike ride into town was very nice. It was nice to “come home” each night to our own place. There were no issues - the binder of information regarding the property was helpful and the cookies were delicious!
