Straits View Shores on Lake Huron

Wake to a beautiful sunrise over Lake Huron from your private deck. Listen to the illusive Loon call. Watch the freighters passing through the Straits. Enjoy a little piece of heaven in Northern Michigan.
This cabin offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Over 2000 sf of Northern charm with a fully equipped kitchen, cozy fireplace, and plenty of space for everyone. If you choose to enjoy your meals in, there is a large hand made log dining room table to accommodate you and your guests for meals (or play your favorite game). You can also visit one of the fine eateries in the area. Situated halfway between Mackinaw City and Cheboygan, there are plenty to choose from. Visit the Historic Fort Michillamackinac or take the 20 minute ferry ride to magical Mackinac Island for the day. No motorized vehicles are allowed on the Island but there are plenty of bikes to rent there. Horse-drawn taxis or private carriage rides are available or enjoy the Island on foot. Take a ghost tour, rent a kayak or enjoy the bustling restaurants there. If you enjoy history, visit the forts or museum there. You won't be disappointed. This is a great home base for traveling around Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. You can visit Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Indian River, Charlevoix or charming Good Hart and the "Tunnel of Trees" - all within an hour. There is no shortage of things to do or see in the area. Or you can just cozy up with a good book in the privacy of the cabin. Theres a 60 mile all-purpose trail that you can access right across the street for biking, hiking or dog walking. It's a great place that you'll want to return to year after year.

My family just loved this property.Check in was simple, house was just as advertised, actually it was better!!Very clean, kitchen/dining area was spacious & well stocked. Outdoor grounds had that "Up North" feel we were looking for and the Lake Huron/Mackinac Bridge/Mackinac Island views from the beach were amazing. We are looking forward to booking another get away at this gem of a property.

The Location was great very close to Mackinaw City. Super View of Mackinac Island. Clean and very nice. It was listed as a four bedroom. Not true, 3 bedroom and a single bed at the top of the stairs. The property Manager Diane Moreno was completely unresponsive to contact, So she gets a one star review from me.

A great home away from home!

We had a fantastic time staying at this property for our family vacation to Michigan. The house was very clean and came equipped with everything we needed. The kids loved going out back for a swim after our day of running around/site seeing. The location was perfect for all the activities we wanted to do (Paradise was 1.2 hrs north, Munising about 1.5 hrs north, Torch Lake 2 hrs south, right next to Mackinaw City, Mackinac Island, and St. Ignace). We absolutely loved our stay and would not hesitate to book again should we find ourselves headed that way in the future.

Beautiful House and Area

This property was very nice with all the amenities you could ask for and it was close to everything in the area, but still somewhat secluded. The owner was very attentive and quick to respond. Would stay again.

Ideal location. Spacious layout.

The house was the perfect size for us- mattresses were nice. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals in. The weather wasn't that great but we did utilize some time sitting with friends down at the beach. The location was centrally located to Cheboygan which is where the guys fished out of daily. Mackinac City was a short jaunt as well for dining and shopping. We would rent again.

Up north hideaway lake escape!

Amazing! The property is wonderful. 3 bedrooms and a loft space with a single bed (twin). 2 baths. Right on the lake. Private and secluded for a relaxing vacation. There are stairs down the deck to the water, keep in mind for kids or elderly. The hosts are thoughtful and have a gate at the top which was lovely. Bring your big spray, sun screen, swim suits and enjoy all up north has to offer. Clean property which is always a must.

Nice getaway with family

Overall this was a great stay. Beautiful view of Lake Huron and the kids had fun looking for rocks. Lots of privacy but close to Mackinaw City. Board games and cards for family fun! Only complaint was that the smoke detector constantly went off.
