Great location near the ferry and historic district

Rented this property for a senior adult sibling getaway. Beautiful view of the harbor and walking distance from restaurants, cafes, and even a brewery as well as historic places to visit. Enough sleeping space for 5 adults with a kitchen well stocked for cooking and serving meals.

Fantastic Location, Wonderful Hosts - One of the best spots on the Island

The property is in an ideal spot on the island with close walkability to town and the north end light house. The house is very clean and is exceptionally well appointed. It has everything you need for a wonderful stay and everything is easy to find. The hosts are quick to respond and dedicated to making sure your stay is the very best. It is one of the best VRBO properties I have ever stayed in.

Enjoyed our stay!

We love the location of Keith & Sheri's house. It's nice to be able to walk into town, the lighthouse or just sit on the porch watching the ferry come & go. The location also offers a beautiful sunset view on the water and an easy drive to Donegal Bay for the sunset. We appreciate that the house was clean and the bed comfortable, and that the the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated. Keith, thank you for your responsiveness and we look forward to staying again on future visits!

We had a great time and were very impressed with the owner’s communication. The ferry had last minute issues but Keith texted me even before BIBCO called. They were able to get the house ready 4 hours before we had planned on arriving! The view is the best and we lived the home! Hope to come bsck

About the host

Hosted by Keith & Sheri Pierson :-)

My family have been going to the island for nearly 50 years. My parents loved the charm and the beautiful lake Michigan scenery. Although my parents are no longer with us, I have been able to keep the tradition alive by bringing my children to the cottage. We still visit the island regularly and I savor the moments that I can spend reminiscing with my two boys of the times, and memories I had during the summers growing up on the island. It is, and will always be, a special place.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is ideally situated overlooking the harbor. The view is nothing less than spectacular. Sitting on the deck, watching the the boats sail by and enjoying the sunset is inspiring. Most of our guests say that just 'hanging out' on the deck and relaxing is one of the endearing qualities of the Beaver Island Harbor View.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is centrally located and over-looks the entire St. James township harbor, and is walking distance from grocery store, fish market, lighthouse, and ferry docks.
