The house was great and perfect location and beautiful views. The only thing there was no air conditioning and we stayed in August so it was a bit warm (hot). Over all great experience and a wonderful neighbor.

This location was perfect for us and our 7 year old rescue Aussie Shepherd... Our goal was to "escape the normal" for 3 days.. enjoy time with a dog who needed a home after being "tossed out" and let him learn that he would go back to his new home... Off Season, the neighborhood was quiet and that was what we sought... it fit our needs.. and his quite well... Smoked fish at Big Bay Fishery was AWESOME as was Whitefish dinner at Audies..

Great view but did not comfortably sleep 6. The sleeper sofa was so uncomfortable a group slept on the floor instead. If you have a group of six be prepared for only 2 queen beds. The proximity to town and view of the water were beautiful!

SPECTACULAR LOCATION ! ! !

We loved our stay here ! Your backyard is Lake Huron ! 40' away from the back door. View also includes Mackinac Island and you're just a short drive from Mackinaw City and Lake Michigan. House is very well kept.
