About this property
Detour Village , freighter views , cozy
Adorable little cottage near Lake Huron, with views of St. Marys River and Lake Huron.
We think "Mayberry Cottage", is perfect and hope you will too.
What it's lacking in modern aesthetics, it makes up for in charm. From the banging
front screen door, to the people watching from the front porch and listening to the church bells chime. There are views of freighters passing by right outside the windows.
This will be a relaxing and tranquil oasis for you.
It's a slower pace , there is no "wi fi" but there are cards to play , movies to watch and books to read. Along with board games and puzzles.
We are located smack dab in the middle of the cute as can be village of Detour. Walk to the market, visit one of the restaurants or bars or launch your boat right across the street. If it's Jeeping you love, the Drummond Island ferry is right around the corner . I've heard the fishing is amazing , as are the beautiful beaches just a short drive away .
Bike around the village, walk to the botanical gardens or walk down to the ferry dock to see the car ferry and freighter watch. Rent a boat slip at the beautiful marina and check out the many islands , just a short boat ride away. Or listen to live music at the marina park on most weekends .
Detour Village is a gem we discovered three years ago and want to share it with others .
All that being said, our cottage is just that. It's clean and neat and oh so adorable but it is not a condo. please remember that when renting. It has a beautiful glassed in front porch where you can enjoy your morning coffee. freighters are often seen right outside the windows and sand cranes wander across the road.
If you visit I bet you will want to return . Mayberry Cottage sleeps 7 comfortably. There is a sleeping loft upstairs with three twin beds, a full bed downstairs and a pull out sofa bed in living room.
Fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, electric stove and keruig coffee pot . Towels and linens are included.
One bath, no Smoking, small dogs allowed.
Adults only

About the host
Your host
I live in northern, Mi in a bustling tourist town. Which makes getting away to Mayberry Cottage one of my favorite things to do . I’m a mom to young adults and keep busy working in sales . My husband and I love to travel and explore and especially love out west. We love the slower pace in detour and can’t wait to retire there someday .
