About this cabin rental

Rent the entire island with two cabins to call your own! Howard Island is a two-acre, family-owned island, located just north of Drummond Island in the Potagannissing Bay, Lake Huron. It is one of the many beautiful islands that dot the bay. Howard Island is heavily wooded with Cedar trees, has puddingstone-dotted rocky shores (bring your watershoes!) and offers 360 degrees of breathtaking views. This kind of quiet, relaxation is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
There is a large dock area with shore power and water for your boat. Rent one easily from nearby Yacht Haven or bring your own to get to and from Howard Island, along with cruising the beautiful bay. Harbor Island National Wildlife Refuge is just a hop-skip away for hiking and swimming! The island is a perfect home base for adventures or to hide from the world for a bit!

Beautiful cabins! Both main cabin and hideaway cabin are well taken care of. My kids loved fishing off the dock and watching the sunsets on the rocks. Busy week of tubing, fishing and exploring the main island and it was nice to come back to the peaceful property.

Our family of 6 had an amazing week of respite at this beautiful destination. Leave behind the day to day, ditch clocks and tv, and enjoy jumping off the dock, playing games, and watching the sunrise/sunset! If you are looking to get away - Howard Island is a fantastic option.

We love this place! And how many people can actually brag about vacationing on an entire island by themselves? Susan's cabin and grounds were very clean and very comfortable. We had a well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook, grill, or bake your favorite dishes. Although we were recommended to visit a couple of restaurants on Drummond Island, we never made the trek across we stayed only at this magical place! We spent our days fishing and sight-seeing, relaxing, and enjoyed a few fun games of Ladder Ball. And, at night, when the skies allowed we gazed up at the stars and watched for UFO's (just kidding but we did see plenty of shooting stars and the occasional satellite) Charles, the local caretaker, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and we appreciated his assistance with getting us oriented with the island. We were so fortunate to have been able to experience this unforgettable adventure and we hope to have the opportunity to visit Howard Island again.
