About this property

Pet Friendly, lakefront, WIFI, super cozy

We would like to assure you that every precaution has been taken and the housekeeping staff follows the CDC guidelines for cleanliness. Please review house manual.

This adorable cottage is located on a lovely beach on Lake Huron with views of Mackinac Island, Mackinac Bridge and Bois Blanc Island.This cozy bungalow is romantic, full of charm and character. The owner is an artist and her attention to detail and creative flair are evident everywhere. There are beautiful Lake Huron views from every room. It is located 7 miles from Mackinaw City and 7 miles from Cheboygan. You’ll love this place because of the quaintness, the comfy bed, the coziness, and the views. It's is well suited for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, and small families.
This lovingly maintained cottage is a family treasure! The owner acquired this property from her parents many years ago. They were both musicians (pianist and violinist) and the cottage was aptly named "Allegro". The owner recalls her father spending his evenings practicing his violin at the waters edge. Whether you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place to relax or a comfortable place to enjoy your loved ones or friends, this is the place. The views of Lake Huron, Mackinac Island and the Mackinac Bridge are spectacular. The cottage boasts large windows which allow not only the summer breezes off the Lake but impeccable views. The cottage comes well equipped and provides all the comforts of home. The kitchen is small but functional. The living room and dining area provide a carefree gathering place. The yard is spacious and there are plenty of shady trees for warm days. The cottage was remodeled by a Northern Michigan craftsman and the quality of his work is evident. There are wood plank floors and a beautifully designed kitchen and bathroom. We are open all year so come and enjoy all 4 seasons with us. Its a great base camp for fall color tours and winter is amazing in the Mackinaw area - so beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The cottage is toasty warm and inviting - you'll want to come back again and again. It is located directly across the road from a 60 mile bike/hike/ski/snowmobile trail.
The cottage is small but comfortable for 2-3 adults or 2 adults and up to 2 children. Pet may be allowed for an extra fee and additional deposit.

Please know that our immediate neighbor currently has 3 dogs in residence. One of them, a German shepherd, is a temporary resident and can be a bit loud and unfortunately isn’t nearly as friendly as the other two dogs and their human companions. That said, know that all are confined by an invisible fence which is the property line between our
two places.

Classic Cabin
This is a very nice older cabin close to both Cheboygan and Mackinaw City. Nicely decorated and full of antiques, books and knickknacks. Diane was very helpful in suggesting restaurants and things to do. The cabin is accurately described. The bike trail is right across the road. Good view of the lake although I wish it had a patio or deck. Don’t let the dogs discourage you; they bark occasionally but are quite friendly. I recommend staying here.

Mackinaw weekend trip
Great stay in a great little cabin close to everything! Awesome location close to mackinaw city, the island and Cheboygan but still felt like a trip away from everyone else without being in a hotel along with all the other weekenders.

The property was just as described. It was a great location, in the middle of everything and right on the lake. It rained the entire 4 days we were there and we still had a great time. We hope to return again.

Beautiful setting
It is a lovely cabin but not suitable for older people. Different levels of floors and steep steps in entry way. There was also 3 dogs next door and we couldn't go outside without them barking at our 2 chihuahua. This stressed us all out.

Great Getaway
There is plenty to do in the area, and sitting by the water watching the sun go down in the evening was a great way to end the day. In addition to the more well known attractions, the North Central State Trail is just across the highway. Just don’t count on the wi-fi because it was unreliable.

Beautiful cottage
The beautiful and well-appointed cottage is a very nice property and location. The views are spectacular and there is a lot to do within a short drive. The wifi is spotty, but that's a minor concern with such a beautiful property. The owner is very responsive and helpful.

This was a wonderful location along Lake Huron. Steps to the lakeside and beautiful views of the lake and islands. The cottage was pleasantly quirky and a delightful place to stay. We had a wonderful week with our two dogs. The neighbors are very willing to provide tour tips - we went to the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum and loved it. The week went by too fast.

My stay
Overall a very enjoyable experience at this property. The Wi-Fi was a little frustrating because it wouldn’t work consistently. The German Shepard next door was a little annoying with all the barking, but the neighbors were awesome about keeping her inside if she was being too loud.

Authentic Up North Experience
Perfect for a family of 3. The bed nook was a good fit for our smaller child. The space overall was roomier than we expected. Location was perfect; close to both Cheboygan and Mackinac City. We truly appreciated the personality of the cabin from books to artwork.

Great location
You can’t beat this location. Scenic views of the bridge and mackinaw island on Lake Huron. In between Cheboygan and Macinaw City so you can explore both. The house itself is very homey, so much art and knickknacks to look at. Very comfy bed as well. We’d return for sure

Back in time
Wonderful little cottage w neat story. Cozy feeling w so many books! We brought food to cook & there was plenty of cookware & utensils. Beautiful property on the lake. We bought firewood & watched the sunset. A couple less favorable things were the high speed road w lights that shone into the bedroom & the neighbor's dogs who barked & ran to edge of property which caused our dog to be on alert.

This was exactly what we wanted. Cozy home on the water. Great views except for the day wildfire smoke was bad. Got to see a couple of freighters go by. Enjoyed watching the waves. Good distance from Mackinaw City.

A great lakefront property with character in every corner
You can control every detail of your vacation but the weather—and rain kept us indoors on more than a few days of our stay. Happily, this cabin has all the comforts of home. We cooked breakfast every morning, then parked ourselves in various cozy nooks to read from the library's endless supply of books and magazines. The personality of the people who built and loved this cabin was still evident all around us. It wasn't like we were staying in a faceless rented room—it felt more like we were house-sitting for old friends who might return at any moment. A wonderful experience.

Loved the cottage, the May Flies were so so bad we left to come home a day early. These flies swarmed the house and property we were not able to enjoy the beach or the view. We loved the cozy cottage though.

Cozy stay on the lake
We booked this place for a weekend anniversary getaway. The cottage was extremely cozy and loaded with antiques and knick knacks that made for a lot of fun to look at. Well stocked with reading materials, as well. The weather was great and allowed for coffee on the beach to watch the sunrise and several freighters. We will be back here at some point, I suspect in about a year😊

Incredible Location
There's nothing like waking up to views of Lake Huron out the windows and being only steps away from feeling the waves lap at your feet. Perfect location situated minutes from the old charm (and stores for supplies) of Cheboygan and tourist attractions at Mackinaw City/Mackinac Island. And, we got to share it all with our family dog Letty since they are gracious enough to allow pets. Thank you and we definitely highly recommend.

Peaceful Retreat
It was everything described and more. The cabin was beautiful and had so much to take in. The lake view out the windows were so relaxing. Close proximity to Mackinaw Island was great .We could see it and the bridge from the property. Neighbors Mike and Kim were very helpful and a pleasure to be around. Would highly recommend a stay here. Archie our Cairn felt right at home.
