This cozy little cottage is perfect for two! It sits right on the water's edge of beautiful Lake Huron in scenic northern Michigan. Tucked away between Mackinaw City and Cheboygan, this little gem offers incomparable views of Mackinac Island and the Mighty Mackinac Bridge. There are 5 acres and over 330 feet of frontage on the aquamarine lake. The beach is private and the cottage is peaceful and quiet - a perfect getaway for 2. The cottage is one-room with a queen-size bed and dresser, a small kitchen and dining area and a bathroom with a shower. Enjoy a good book on the front porch or sunbathe in the spacious yard. Bring your bikes because if you cross the street, you are on a 62 mile bike/hike trail that runs from Gaylord to Mackinaw. Feel free to bring your canoe or kayak and put in right on the beach for a carefree day of peaceful paddling. The cottage is located halfway between the Village of Mackinaw City and Cheboygan, where you can enjoy shopping, dining, museums or just an evening ice cream cone at one of the many shops in town.
 
The property is shared with 3 other units (VRBO 573662, 609883, 871262) which are also available for rent but located a good distance away. Lem's Paradise #1, Lem's Paradise #2 and Little Lem's share the property and 335 feet of frontage on Lake Huron. You can rent any of them separately or together if you need extra space for a large family gathering. (There are beds for a total of 18) All bedding, linens, dishes, etc. are included.
 
 
*We have opted  to offer Damage Insurance at the cost of $55 for your stay in lieu of a refundable security deposit.  It will be listed under fees as "Damage Insurance".   This does not apply to AIRBNB bookings.
 
*WILDLIFE DISCLAIMER*
 
Coming to  beautiful Northern Michigan includes the possibility of wildlife encounters.  We have midges,  spiders, mosquitos, occasionally black flies and an assortment of other insects. We spray regularly to keep them at a manageble level but we also don't want to damage the fragile ecosystem here. Note that where there is water, there will be spiders.  They are very industrious and can build back a knocked down web within a day!
They are also great for controlling mosquitos and wasps, which we appreciate.
 
We treasure the wildness of the North and perhaps that is what attracts you.
 
Consider yourself lucky if you catch a glimpse of any of our other wild neighbors -  black bear, wolves, deer, elk, coyote, fox, bobcats, porcupine,  skunks, raccoons, eagles, hawks, squirrels, chipmunks and mice as well as a massive variety of birds.
 
We ask you to consider this before booking one of our cottages or cabins.  
 
The presence of wildlife is part of the experience here and does not warrant a refund.
