Great Place to Unwind

Beautiful sunsets and water that went from blue to green to brown (when the winds picked up.) The cottage was a perfect size and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a place to stay that is a convenient distance to many of the highly be rated sights. Betsy Doepken

UP adventures

Great stay at wonderful cabin on the lake! Very secluded and quiet surroundings-felt like we had the whole lake to ourselves. Weather didn’t cooperate perfectly, but still got into the water with swimming at the beach by the dock and plenty of fishing. Countless perch were caught off the pier with a few pike as well! The cabin worked great for our family looking for a secluded piece of paradise on a lake!

Excellent time

We spent a week here and were sorry to leave. It is clean and cozy. We caught some fish off the dock. We used the row boat and grill daily. It is so quiet, you feel like the only ones down this road. Would highly recommend!

September at the waterfront cottage

We spent 5 lovely days at the cottage. While there we went to Mackinac Island, Drummond Island as well as both U.S. and Canadian Sault Ste. Marie towns. We found the commutes to all locations very convenient. This cottage is exactly as advertised. We were all happy with the accommodations. The guys spent a morning in the rowboat hoping to attract some fish but were not successful. It was still a great time for them to row in the bay. The sunsets are amazing and would be hard to beat anywhere in the continental U.S.

Picture Perfect

My husband and I have stayed at dozens of VRBOs and we agreed this was a favorite. The house had everything you could want or need. The property was serene and quiet. The beds were comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. The washer and dryer was an added bonus. The only thing I would mention to visitors is the bay gets windy so pack accordingly.

Wonderful Place to Getaway

We had a couples labor day getaway and this was just the perfect location! The property felt very private so we were able to hangout outside all day without feeling like anyone was around. The house was clean and had all the cooking appliances we could need, plus, tons of board games and quite a few movies to pick from. The property itself was absolutely beautiful. On top of that, the host, Tonya, was incredible. She offered to extend our checkout a couple of hours because the Mackinac Bridge was closed until noon. We had no clue until she mentioned it, but she saved us a couple of hours of just sitting in the car. Overall, we had a wonderful time and are considering turning this into an annual thing! 10/10 recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Tonya Train

Host profile image
My husband and I have two boys; Robert (15) and Jack (12). I grew up in the UP and my husband is a native of Georgia. We ended up in NC and have lived there for almost 20 years.

Why they chose this property

We love NC, but are drawn back to the UP a couple of times per year to vacation and visit family. It has always been our dream to have our own vacation place in the Eastern-UP. We bought "Off the Hook" in 2017. It needed a lot of work and it took us over a year to get it in shape, but the view and the sunsets made all of the hard-work worthwhile. We decided to offer it as a vacation rental, so that others could enjoy it, too.
