We loved staying at the tree house. It was so quiet and peaceful....just what I needed. The location was beautiful on Font Lake and a perfect distance from the ferry dock, restaurants, and shopping. We loved watching the hummingbirds and listening to the loons. I highly recommend staying here. The hosts were friendly and helpful.

This cozy apartment was perfect for our stay on Beaver Island. Clean, comfortable, the screened in porch is a bonus. We heard the loons every day, hummingbirds at the feeder. Easy bike ride into town to the east, or to Donegal Bay Beach to the west. We had a car too, but bikes were easy and fun.

Perfect Beaver Island Retreat for a Couple

Lovely Beaver Island apartment on Font Lake. Close to town for access to dining. But far enough away to listen to loons and woodpeckers. Font Lake is beautiful with beaver, many birds, and loons. The apartment is well furnished for a multiple night stay.

The apartment has all one needs, almost new and close to town or beaches, in a private woodsy setting and a view of the lake. It's inviting and comfortable, with enclosed and open porches, welcoming anyone to enjoy slow paced life, walking, biking. Owners are especially helpful.

Beautiful Apartment Near Font Lake

This is a beautiful property on a very special island. If in doubt, just go there! It is so quiet that you can hear the hummingbirds flying in to the feeders. You can actually hear them before you see them. The apartment itself is beautifully done with natural cedar trim. Truly wonderful!

Tree House

Nestled in the trees, it was like living in a house! Great Swing by the water to hear the loons and to see deer in the distance. We took a 'road trip' to hear the Jazz musician, Dave Bennett, perform at the Island. Drove around the island and made all the 'stops'. Great time! Karen & JIm

Pefect getaway for two.

I love everything about this place. A great place for two persons. Quite and peaceful. Its great for taking in some natural wildlife and fishing. Looms, Storks and beavers are active in the mornings on Font Lake. Rented a boat and motor for 3 days and caught fish every day, even on days with wind and choppy waters. Soaked up the sun at the southern end of the Island and enjoyed the sunsets at the northwest end of the island at Donegal Bay. The screened in porch in the back is great for relaxing in the mornings and evenings. It's like being in a tree house. It's just a great place!!! Just be sure to rent your car space on the ferry well ahead of time, but it you can't get the car to the island then just rent a little Geo Tracker to get around. Lots of fun exploring the island. Just can't get enough of Beaver Island.
