This property worked out well for a 3 generation family vacation. The small cottages accommodated 2 elder couples, the larger cottage was a nice place for gathering and preparing shared meals. There was plenty of space and privacy to spread out, play yard games and enjoy the on the water activities. I am sure we will consider visiting again. The location provided easy access to Mackinaw City, Cheybogan and Wilderness State Park…

This place was awesome for my family of 7 adults, 2 kids, a toddler and 2 infants. It’s a 20-minute drive to Mackinaw City which is where you port to the island. There is a lot to do on the property itself - kayaks, paddle boards, fire pits, racquet ball, and other games the owners have set out for the kids - so much to do! Each cabin is fully equipped with everything you would need for the trip. We couldn’t recommend this VRBO enough!

Our entire family enjoyed our stay on the lake. We used the kayaks, grilled out, enjoyed sunsets and lawn games. The cabins were beautifully remodeled. We really appreciated all the recommendations of the host! Highly recommend.

We used all three cabins for our vacation. Each cabin was perfect for each of our children and grandchildren. The cabins were clean and well furnished. The firepits had plenty of wood and we had one each evening after playing in the water. The ability to use paddle boards, paddle boats and kayaks gave all of us enjoyment during the warm days. The cabins were close to Mackinac Island and the UP for sight seeing. Great vacation spot!!
