Properties

This adorable little gem was re-constructed in 2016 from top to bottom and the location is indeed paradise. Comfy beds, a sleeper sofa if needed and a spacious dining area are yours to enjoy. We provide all linens and plush bath towels - we just ask that you bring your own beach towels. The kitchen comes complete with a refrigerator and stove, pots and pans, dishes and silverware. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a trip with the kids. There is plenty of parking for boats and recreational vehicles. It sits on a beautifully landscaped 5 acre lawn with lots of room to roam. Swim (yes it has a sandy beach but still has the typical Lake Huron rocks so bring water shoes), nightly campfires on the waterfront, horseshoes in the yard. We see lots of wildlife - deer, fox, coyote and very recently a black bear! The park-like atmosphere will beckon you to enjoy your meals outside on the picnic table. It has a full kitchen and all the necessary supplies but you might want to cook burgers or dogs on the grill just outside your door. It's a quick 5 minutes to Mackinaw City and all it has to offer. Hop on a ferry for a ride to the popular Mackinac Island and take a trip back in time. Enjoy a Starbucks coffee and try the zipline in town. There is plenty of shopping and dining in town or head to Cheboygan - about a 10 minute drive in the opposite direction. Shop or dine at the many options available to you. Rent a boat in Cheboygan and take the Inland Waterway tour through a chain of lakes. Bring your bikes because there is a 60 mile trail across the road from the properties that will take you all the way to Gaylord if you want or a quick 5 mile trip to Mackinaw City. This is a great base camp for all of your Northern Michigan adventures.
 
Little Lems sits on 5 acres along with Lem's Paradise, Lem's Paradise #2, and the Million Dollar View Cottage. They share the property and 330 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. Our guests love the views and the peacefulness of the property. Guests will have access to the 5 acres and waterfront on Lake Huron. There are picnic tables, a deck, charcoal grill and fire pit for guests to use.
 
 
*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.
