Enjoy my beautiful island flower garden with pond and lighthouse and the train garden. Wildlife including deer and even a moose have stopped by for a visit. Truly a tranquil romantic paradise!

Beyond Beautiful
Words cannot describe how incredibly beautiful and precious this place is. The location is amazing with spectacular views of the bridge and the property of the host, Mary Lynn has the most spectacular flower and train garden. Speaking of the host, Mary Lynn is the most gracious, kind and accommodating person. She made our stay so special and memorable. We came as friends and when we left we felt like family. We loved our stay and cannot wait to make plans for next trip.

Had a wonderful quiet anniversary weekend in St. Ignace/Mackinac Island
My wife and I booked this cute 1 br. As a quick getaway from Chicago for our anniversary. Mary Lynn was an amazing host and left us some delicious homemade banana bread, a bottle of wine and a nice card as a warm welcome. She was easy to get a hold of, although we didn’t really need for anything while we were there. The place was very clean and charming, and we were greeted by the smell of fresh cedar as soon as we got out of the car. You can literally walk to the lakefront from here if you want, although it’s along a road with little shoulder, so you’ll have to use your best judgement. It wasn’t a busy street so it was fine at the time we went. If we come up again we would def stay again, although next time we might bring the kids which would mean we’d need a place with at least one more bedroom. All in all, if you’re looking for a great place to spend a romantic weekend, this is a great choice.

A little piece of paradise!
Mary Lynn was so welcoming and a wonderful hostess. She had beautiful lilacs and homemade banana bread and very nice card waiting on our arrival. She even helped us celebrate our anniversary with another beautiful card and bottle of wine! I would recommend to anyone this was a wonderful home away from home to stay for the week we very much enjoyed ourselves, and will be returning for our next trip thank you Mary Lynn !!

Perfect weekend getaway
This was such a beautiful property. The views of the woods and garden create the perfect backdrop for the cozy log home. Everything was neat and clean and Mary Lynn made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It was the perfect place to come home to after exploring the U.P. each day.

Charming place, location and host - will book again!
I recently stayed here and it really is as beautiful as it looks. It was truly an unforgettable experience! This beautiful log home apartment in the woods provided the perfect peaceful and private escape I was looking for. From the moment we arrived, the host's graciousness and hospitality were evident. Initially, we booked for two nights, but we extended our stay to four nights to enjoy all the activities in the area. The host, a real UP-er, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The apartment itself is charming, impeccably clean, and well-maintained. It backs right up to the trees, offering a tranquil and serene atmosphere. The electric heat, air conditioning, air filtering, and RO water filtering system ensured we were always comfortable, and we appreciated that the apartment has never housed pets—perfect for those with allergies. One of the highlights was the host's thoughtful gestures. For my girlfriend's birthday, she surprised us with a card, flowers, chocolates, and even baked us cookies and blueberry muffins. Such personal touches made our stay extra special. The location is ideal—just two blocks from Lake Michigan with stunning views of the Mackinac Bridge. We enjoyed visiting nearby Point La Barbe via their golf cart to catch sunsets, St. Ignace, Mackinac Island, Tahquamenon Falls, and Pictured Rocks. Overall this getaway is a hidden gem in the UP. The host provided an exceptional, memorable experience, a destination I highly recommend!
