Nice Quiet Getaway

We spent a few days at this property in the middle of September. The weather was beautiful and allowed us to explore Mackinaw Island, the Soo Locks, and a few other sights. Our kids also enjoyed swimming in the lake, which was shallow and sandy, allowing even our younger children to enjoy the water safely. Overall a great place with lots of room and very quite and easy to get to. Thank you!

St. Ignace, MI family vacation

Eagle’s Nest is a beautiful property. Everything the listing promised. Well stocked kitchen, lots of outdoor seating, enough Kayaks/Paddle boards to allow the family to enjoy the lake together. The location is soo peaceful and close enough to the beaches and Mackinac ferry and other places to visit while in the UP. My family loved our week at this house and highly recommend it!

An Eagle's Nest retreat

Family Reunion

Rented the Eagles Nest and another property down the street for a family get together. Cabin is tastefully decorated, apportioned nicely and well supplied. Was the perfect place for my family and relatives. Lots of movies, games, and water toys to keep the children entertained. Of course they loved the ducks too. Highly recommended. Discussing making the Eagles Nest an annual trip for my immediate family.

Amazing Cabin!!

We stayed at the cabin for a week long family vacation! The home was clean and the kitchen had every item you could imagine. Dennis and Linda were very prompt when asking questions before and during the stay. We had a problem with the grill and Dennis had it taken care of the following day. The beach area was perfect for young children as the water is extremely shallow. We brought our jet skis and were able to attach them to the dock. The week was very memorable and we look forward to coming back. The only thing down side was that the mosquitos were horrible. I would recommend having the property sprayed. The neighbors had their property sprayed early in the week and that did help a little. Overall, I would recommend this cabin for any family looking to enjoy a peaceful time away on a lake!

Fantastic Stay!

The property is cozy, well kept and clean! There is not a detail the owners haven't thought of. The lake is peaceful and sandy. The location is secluded. There are a few neighbors that are relatively close, but not invasive with lots of trees in between the properties. Dennis was a great host and quick in response with the one question we had. We've stayed at a lot of great rentals over the years, and this is the only one we would, and probably will, rent again!! My only suggestion.....a knife sharpener for the knife block.

This was a delightful experience, albeit too brief. The log home was beautiful, the property well tended, and the location ideal. The owners were excellent hosts, and we so appreciate the use of their lovely home. We had not done anything like this before, but they made it smooth and easy. We certainly have no complaints.

Perfect

We had an excellent stay at the Eagles Nest and the name is perfect as we saw eagles every day along with many other animals. The kids had names for all of them as they were daily visitors. So peaceful and quiet and great for children of all ages. Close to many popular UP attractions and Lake Michigan beaches along US 2. The dune directly across Brevoort Lake was a hit with the kids and had a rope swing over the dune. That was a daily visit. Just a great overall visit and owners were prompt in responding to any questions. Can’t go wrong staying here!

Brevort Memories

The home was wonderful! Very clean and had everything you could need. Kitchen was heavily furnished, more so than any other VRBO I've stayed in. Silverware, plates, mugs, glasses, pans, griddles, ... you name it, it's there. 9 of us stayed there with beds to spare. The lake was nice, just like we remembered it. Caught several Northern Pike and Walleye despite being there during the Mayfly hatch. Doug was great with communication. I had a few questions while in the home on where to locate certain items and he responded back within minutes. There are ~30ft of wetlands between the lawn off the deck to the lakeshore where the fire pit and dock are. There are boards lining a path through that area to help keep feet dry. The family had a lot of fun fishing and exploring the area. We'd love to do it again sometime.

About the host

Hosted by Dennis Matson

Host profile image
My family has rented this home several times; each and every time we visited it was a memorable family experience. Vividly I can picture my children jumping off the dock for a swim or sitting in a boat fishing with my dad. When the time came in our lives to purchase our own lake home we were very fortunate to purchase Eagles Nest. Our intent is to make each and every guest feel as if they were truly a guest in our home. We intend to provide a warm and inviting atmosphere with plenty of amenities to make your visit perfect. We want each guest to have there own memories of a great vacation.

Why they chose this property

There are so many things to see and do in this area. Pictured rocks, Tahquemenon Falls, Whitefish Point, Mackinaw Island, Thunder Falls water park, casino, snowmobiling, skiing, Lake Michigan. Most of all, I love the lake. Brevort Lake is an all sports lake with great fishing, boating and touring.

What makes this property unique

Whether sitting on the deck in the morning and drinking coffee or in front of the fireplace in the evening this home is all about relaxation. Watch as the bald eagle often flies over, ducks come in for visits, we see plenty of deer and at night listen for the call of the loons on the lake.. The house is decorated for a comfortable feel to all who visit. When trails are open you can can ride a snowmobile or ATV through hundreds of miles of trails. Take the loop ride around the lake to 123, go to Trout lake for lunch and head back through the woods to Brevort Lake Campground and back home.
