Great Location and Helpful Hosts

My sister and I brought our parents on a surprise trip to Beaver Island and this was the perfect base for our many adventures. We did not bring a car and it was just a quick walk down the road to shops, museums, restaurants, and the beach. We had bikes that allowed us to travel further out and the host even brought a bike for us to borrow. Despite the convenient location, it was very quiet and we enjoyed our time relaxing on the patio between adventures.

Our stay was lovely

Thank you for another wonderful stay-- so close to town, but when we heard that the Perseid meteor shower was visible, we laid on the deck by the front door and did some sky watching. We could see the milky way! The property is quiet and comfortable.

Good Times on BI

The layout of the house, bedroom and shower is a little odd, but had plenty of room and enjoyed our stay. We were usually out adventuring around the island all day. The location is very convenient to town and more importantly....Daddy Frank's Ice Cream Shop!

Perfect for the 2 of us!

My husband and I rented this property for a long weekend, and it was wonderful! Lois and her husband were so welcoming and friendly. The rental was the perfect size for just the two of us (but can also accommodate 2 more), and the location of the property made it an ideal "landing spot" as we explored the community, much of it within easy walking distance. I absolutely recommend this rental!

Lovely location

We had tried to look at the night sky from the south side of the island, but the clouds got on the way. The next night we laid on the deck of this property and could see meteors, satellites, and even the Milky Way! It’s a lovely location, and we enjoyed our time there.

Quiet location close to town

The property was in a great, quiet location. It could use some repairs and updates, such as hooks for towels and brighter bathroom lighting. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. We were lucky enough to meet our host host and is a very thoughtful and kind person.

The spot is located right next to downtown. It’s absolutely perfect for a small family or two couples. You can walk to town - that’s how close it is to everything.

Amazing

Lois' place was just as she listed. Even though there isn't a range stove, there was plenty there to make the kitchen useful to our family and extended family staying in other places to eat with us. Lois was empathetic and accommodating when a family emergency arose, and I appreciate that so much. We would love to stay at the Gallery again. It is a perfect location for us, as we visited the library, Donegal Bay, the campsite, and town often. Thank you, Lois, for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Lois Stipp

Host profile image
My family has been on Beaver Island for 6 generation. We have a strong, proud heritage since about 1856. I am an Artist, teacher and retired RN. My husband is a retired High School Administrator. We own the rental, a home and an Art Gallery on the island.

Why they chose this property

Beaver Island is a little slice of Paradise. It is home to many warm, good hearted and friendly people. The property is locate in town, but tucked away off the main street. Within walking distance from the harbor, dining, ice cream and the beach. Hopefully you will carry home a piece of the island in your heart.
