About this property

Tranquil Retreat or Romantic Getaway in Beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

A beautiful log home apartment in the woods. A tranquil, peaceful and private getaway in a safe area. Also handicap accessibility. A short distance from Lake Michigan with spectacular views of the Mackinac Bridge, islands and wildlife. Near Sand Bay, a sandy beach for swimming and kayaking. Many tourist attractions: Mackinac Island, Tahquamenon Falls, Sault Locks, forts and museums.
I have lived in Saint Ignace all my life - my roots here go back to 1885. My family are some of the first settlers in this quaint city. I LIVE ON SITE. My home is divided with private entrance for visitors. No shared space. Enjoy my beautiful island flower garden with pond and lighthouse and the train garden. Wildlife including deer and even a moose have stopped by for a visit. Truly a tranquil romantic paradise!

For those with allergies - rest assured that there has never been a pet inside the log home apartment.
Electric heat, air conditioning and air filtering system. There are no fragrances.
Well water and Culligan's reverse osmosis water filtering system.
Free and sensitive detergents.

The perfect UP getaway! It is close to the ferries to Mackinac Island and the Mackinac Bridge. The views around the property and neighborhood are serene from every angle. Mary was a great host who respected our privacy. The place is attached to her beautiful log cabin home but don’t be mistaken, it is a very cozy and quiet stay.

This was one of the best VRBO experiences we've had - great host, outstanding location, comfortable accommodations. Everything we needed was readily available, the furnishings were comfortable, and Mary Lynn is an excellent host. She left us homemade banana bread and allowed us to use her golf cart to be able to see the shoreline at sunset. We would highly recommend this to our friends, and won't stay anywhere else if we return to the area.

What a fantastic place to stay. Quaint and quiet. Clean with everything you need. It’s close to the bridge, the ferry to the island and Mackinaw City to name just a few. Mary Lynn is a wonderful host and very responsive. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Great location

The location and our stay were great! The host was extremely welcoming and the perfect host! It is close to the beach, and to the St Ignace ferry to Mackinac Island which we preferred over the busier Mackinaw City port. The house was roomy with lots of amenities. The gardens were beautiful in July and it was a very quiet setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Our host was very friendly and accommodating. When we arrived and she was there to greet us. The cabin was very clean and a small loaf of homemade banana bread was waiting to welcome us to our stay. She let us use her golf cart to cruise along the coast and get beautiful pictures of the bridge. The property was gorgeous and well taken care of. Unfortunately we had to cut our vacation short but enjoyed our time while we were up there.
