We had a great stay! We are regulars for Beaver Island and were displaced from our cottage due to storm damage and this property was a great reflection of the island and everything it has to offer. I do want to mention that while it is pet friendly, pets aren’t allowed on the furniture(understandable as the couches and chairs in the living room are leather). Photos of our dog enjoying his stay for fun :)

Our third trip to the island and third stay at the cabin, perfection! Our kids, the in-laws and pup LOVE this cabin, it’s become a second home for us. We have become so smitten with Beaver Island we are planning more frequent trips. The house has everything you need and more, and if you can find it, the local grocery store is well stocked! Thank you for the memories.

Beaver Island Cottage

We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It had a beautiful view of the lake and was a great place to look at the stars. It was thoughtfully furnished with a well stocked kitchen.

Great beach access on Beaver Island

We had a lovely time soaking in Beaver Island from this comfortable retreat. The beach access is very easy and was nearly private even though we were there in August. Definite recommend!

Cottage was exactly as described, just what we expected. Easy access and communication with the host. It was an older place with lots of upgrades and character. Kitchen had everything including all kinds of spices. Appliances were newer. Private. Easy walk of a hundred yards to the beach and a few minutes drive to town. Linens, towels, toilet paper all in abundance. We had a cool, relaxed week.

Perfect Quiet Spot

We had everything we needed and then some. The view of the lake was amazing. We would walk down the short way to enjoy our morning coffee with the waves and gulls. The kitchen was amazing to cook in. Beds were super comfy. We loved it and will be back.
