Lakefront Cabin on the trails in St.Ignace (Chain Lake Hideaway)

Visit this great trail house! Chain Lake Hideaway is a quaint 2-bedroom cabin perched above the north shore of Chain Lake. Located directly ON the trail system in St. Ignace, you can access hundreds of miles of ATV trails winding through the U.P., just steps from the house. For summer, spend your days swimming, kayaking, or relaxing on the sandy shoreline, and your evenings gathered around the fire pit under the stars. Chain Lake Hideaway boasts an aromatic, open-concept knotty pine setting. In the first bedroom, you'll find a cozy queen-size bed, while bedroom #2 features a full/twin bunk bed with peaceful lake views. When needed, guests can also use the queen hide-a-bed or travel crib. Take a short walk down to the water to enjoy beachfront access, a fire pit or unwind on the deck surrounded by quiet woods and occasional wildlife. The Hideaway is also just a quick 3-minute drive to downtown, local amenities, and the Mackinac Island ferries—making it an ideal home base for your summer getaway.

Location Location

The house was fantastic for our group. We were centrally located to the Mackinaw ferries, restaurants and other excursions locations. This would be a cottage we would choose to return to.

Family Trip to Mackinac Island

We were beyond impressed with the property. The cleanliness exceeded any VRBO we have ever stayed in. It almost felt like we were the first people to stay there. The property is gorgeous. So close to St. Ignace main stores, shops, restaurants, and the ferry. Our trip was very active with hiking, biking, many trips to and from the island, but we found it hard to leave the property at times. Great place to enjoy. It was hard to leave and if we ever find our way back to the UP - this is where we will be staying!

Summer vacation

This property was exactly as listed. A convenient location near attractions yet seemed peaceful and secluded in the woods with its own lovely smaller lake. Perfect place for my husband and I and 2 adult children. Would have loved access to a couple of kayaks or paddle boards to explore the lake a bit; there was a paddle boat but we didn't use it because we didn't have rags to clean it up.

Great place to stay

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this cabin for five nights in June. Pros: 1. This is the cleanest VRBO property I have ever stayed in. 2. It is super close to all the restaurants and shops in St. Ignace and the ferry to Mackinac Island. 3. The view of the lake is beautiful. There is a picture in the listing of a canoe but when we rented, there was only a paddleboat that was full of water and was dirty. I wish I would have brought my paddleboard to enjoy the lake even more. Bring citronella candles for the mosquitoes! Cons: 1. The listing said they can't promise what kind of dry goods will be available but I wasn't expecting there to be zero spices, non-stick cooking spray, etc. Usually I haul a bunch stuff to a VRBO and then never need to use it so this time I didn't bring anything and should have! There were some KCups and coffee filters but that was it. 2 There is also no hair dryer. 3. We locked ourselves out of the cabin during our stay and had some difficulty reaching anyone to help. The number given goes directly to an outgoing message that tells you to hang up and text the number with your emergency. I did so at 4:30 p.m. (they close at 5) and did not receive an immediate answer so I left a message and sent an email. By 4:45, I still received no response so we drove the physical office. Thank goodness the office was close to the cabin! Once we were able to reach someone, the situation was resolved quickly. Overall, this is a great place.
