About this house rental
The Kelly Cottage on Lake Huron
Escape to the peaceful shores of Lake Huron and experience the simple joy of lake life at Kelly Cottage, a warm, family-friendly waterfront retreat in beautiful St. Ignace, Michigan.
This charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage is not a luxury mansion and that is exactly part of its charm. Kelly Cottage feels like visiting your favorite family lake house: comfortable, welcoming, relaxed, and filled with the kind of atmosphere where memories are made year after year.
Whether you are gathering with family, reconnecting with friends, enjoying quiet mornings by the water, or ending the night around a bonfire under the stars, Kelly Cottage offers the perfect setting to slow down, unwind, and enjoy everything Northern Michigan has to offer.
Relaxed Waterfront Living
The heart of the home is the inviting living room overlooking Lake Huron, where large windows bring in natural light and beautiful water views. Cozy up around the fireplace after a day on the lake, settle into the comfortable sofas with a good movie, play cards or board games, work on a puzzle, or simply enjoy a quiet evening with a glass of wine while listening to the waves roll in.
This is the kind of place where you can truly disconnect from the stress of everyday life and reconnect with the people who matter most.
Sleeps 8+ Guests
Kelly Cottage comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests with four thoughtfully appointed bedrooms and cozy bedding designed for restful nights after long days of adventure.
Need additional sleeping space? The upper bedrooms can accommodate up to 4 additional guests using renter-supplied air mattresses (not provided). Additional guest fees apply.
Linens are provided for all bedrooms so you can settle in and start relaxing from the moment you arrive.
Fully Equipped Kitchen
The fully stocked kitchen includes everything needed for preparing family meals, including:
* Refrigerator
* Stove/Oven
* Microwave
* Dishwasher
* Coffee Maker
* Crockpot
* Cookware & Kitchen Essentials
Enjoy breakfast at the kitchen bar seating, gather around the dining table with lake views, or fire up the charcoal grill for an evening cookout (charcoal not provided).
Outdoor Lakefront Paradise
Step outside and discover why guests fall in love with Kelly Cottage.
Sip your morning coffee on the deck while watching the sunrise over Lake Huron. Spend your afternoons swimming, floating, kayaking, paddle boarding, or simply relaxing on the shoreline with a good book.
The shallow, sandy-bottom waterfront is ideal for:
* Families with children
* Swimming
* Floating
* Kayaking
* Paddle boarding
* Launching jet skis directly from the beach
The water here is incredibly clear — you can often see the sandy lake bottom right through the water.
Bringing a larger boat? A nearby boat launch makes access easy.
As evening falls, gather around the bonfire pit, roast marshmallows, share stories, and enjoy unforgettable nights under the Northern Michigan sky (firewood not provided).
Included Water Toys & Recreation
Guests enjoy complimentary use of:
* 3 Kayaks
* Paddle Boat
There is no better way to experience the beauty of Lake Huron than from the water itself.
Pet Friendly
We know pets are family too, and well-behaved dogs are welcome with prior approval and pet fee.
Please note:
* Dogs must remain leashed unless fully recall-trained
* Dogs are restricted to the first floor
* A baby gate is provided to help keep pets downstairs and minimize sand and pet hair upstairs
Pet fee: $100 per approved pet.
Perfect Northern Michigan Location
Kelly Cottage is centrally located near many of Northern Michigan’s most popular attractions, including:
* Downtown St. Ignace
* Mackinac Island ferries
* Mackinaw City
* Restaurants & shopping
* Hiking & outdoor recreation
* Snowmobiling trails during winter months
Whether you are visiting during the summer for lake adventures or planning a cozy fall or winter getaway, Kelly Cottage offers the perfect home base for exploring the area.
The Kind of Place Families Return To
Kelly Cottage is about simple moments, lake breezes, campfires, laughter, and creating the kind of family memories that last forever.
We would love to host your next Northern Michigan getaway.

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
The home was perfect for our family's gathering. We were looking for a place large enough for 10…and still have some space to have local friends and family join us in the evenings for bonfires by the beach. I loved the mornings watching the sun rise and walking on the beach too.
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
Wonderful location with views and water access. Home spacious. Did not give 5 stars because listing not accurate and our family planned according to the listing. Orherwise, nice stay.
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
The home was very clean inside, the location is beautiful.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
Communication with property management/owner was very good until I gave report of things to be improved upon. The beach is beautiful, the home is well suited to a large group. The pillows were terrible with complaints from 5/6 in our group. The towels were worn. Both were in need to be refreshed, especially for a rental. Any pillow in closets held onto a musty cabin smell. In addition - the shower control in 1st floor bath was difficult to adjust, no soap left in showers. Kitchen sink faucet dripped without careful adjustment and difficult to get the hot water to flow to. Both fixtures are very dated. The kitchen well well stocked was not as clean as should be with a rental.
When we went to place our trash in the trash bin - it was already full and we could not close the lid when we left.
The furniture literally shed on our clothing from old pieces of fake leather from the sofa & recliner. The property could be improved with some attention to detail and strategic upgrades. If this property meets your bed needs - bring you pillows.
