Beachfront holiday rentals in Mackinac County

This was our third year at the Captain’s cabin. The cabin is right on the water which is a long sandbar perfect for kids or pets. The public boat ramp is a short walk away and perfectly maintained. St. Ignace is close by as are Sault Ste. Marie and other attractions. Unlike many rentals, the cabin has absolutely everything a visitor would need in the kitchen. Moreover, our dog is not just allowed but welcomed. Highly recommend!

My husband, 2 toddlers and 2 dogs stayed here for 4 nights and it was a perfect UP getaway. The house was well-stocked and everything matched the description and pictures. The lake was gorgeous, and it's a great location to explore other UP destinations.

The location was priceless , beautiful log home overlooking Lake Huron. The wildlife was amazing . Watching the Bald Eagles and deer were our favorites. Made lots of memories with great family and friends. We will definitely return.

Located in Melody Beach Cottages, this place is worth the price when you watch sunrise on the first morning with your cup of coffee overlooking Lake Huron. The cottage is well designed and cozy, with a deck and walk out beach access. The check in and check out instructions are very clear. Overall, this was a 5-star experience, and we will be booking again on our next trip up north!

We were very happy with everything! 🩵

What a beautiful spot on beautiful Beaver Island. My family had a wonderful stay. We’ll be back.

My daughter and her husband said they loved the lake access. Hosts made sure parking was available for our group. My husband enjoyed being able to fish by only walking a bit. Would recommend if looking for some place to enjoy by the lakeside.

Tonya place is a perfect getaway, We spent time exploring the UP as well as enjoying the water and watched the most beautiful sunsets. The house was very clean, had everything we needed to be comfortable for the week we were there. My kids loved playing and fishing oof the small sandy beach and dock. We definitely plan on trying to book another stay at Tonya place and if your looking for an up north escape this is the place for you!!

We absolutely loved staying at the Blue Heron House! Our daughter loved playing on the beach, shallow and perfect for small children! The house was stocked with everything we needed, lots of baby/children items and outdoor toys included which made our stay so much easier! It is in a very nice and friendly area, giving you some privacy but also close enough to many tourist attractions. It was the perfect place to stay during our UP vacation!

Absolutely love this cabin felt so homie. Helped us out with an early access. Will try and get this place again next year if available

Amazing place to stay! Can’t wait to go back! It was such a pleasure to meet host Judy and hear her tell of her family’s fascinating history of this gorgeous property on Lake Michigan. She is quick to answer any questions you may have…extremely accommodating. While she stays in a smaller abode onsite, the environment still feels private and secluded. The views, indescribable! Mother Nature speaks to you constantly, sometimes in a whisper and other times as a roar. But remember, you will be in the Wilderness Park so be prepared (as Judy says) for a pesky pest or two. We really only experienced them (biting black flies) one evening while collecting rocks along the beach. We found our natural oils repellent worked best. The cottage interior is a delightful eclectic French Country, comfy and cozy!! Every corner is decorated with such uniqueness and interesting flair. There are plenty of areas of the home to gather together or to sit quietly in peace. It is truly a VERY special place!! 💖

Great location close to town. Friendly neighbors. Shared yard and beach with other cottages and condos. View of Paradise Bay. We watched the Curragh races from the beach and loved the Irish Feile! Quiet cottage. Reminded me of our family’s hunting camp. Entrance step is bit tall if you have any mobility issues. Enjoyed cooking whitefish from the island market in the workable kitchen. We brought our own sheets, quilts, pillows, bath/beach/kitchen, cookware, knives, etc and were happy we did. Would recommend. Thanks for a relaxing week and sweet stay.

The beds and pillows were so comfy! Beautiful cabin with a gorgeous lake view!

This house was perfect for my family. The location was close to restaurants and the ferry to Mackinac island. Great communication and would rent the home again

Jed was amazing. The Airbnb was exactly what we were looking for! Gorgeous lake view for morning coffee. You have all you need for a few days stay. Jed was kind, responsive and the Airbnb was absolutely breathtaking. The views and the atmosphere and quiet scenery is what we had hoped for and we received. The gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze, the soft chirping of birds, and the distant sound of a flowing stream created a harmonious backdrop. Each moment spent in this serene environment felt like a gift, a chance to disconnect from the chaos of everyday life. As the sun began to set, casting a warm golden hue over the landscape, we found ourselves immersed in the beauty surrounding us, savoring every second of our peaceful retreat. The air was crisp and fresh, filling our lungs with a sense of renewal and calm. We were stopping to appreciate the delicate scenery and the vibrant colors of the sunset. In that tranquil setting, conversations. Thank you Jed!

Beautiful views from the home with lots of amenities for a relaxing weekend on the lake. Also a short distance from multiple restaurants and parks. Would definitely stay here again!

We had such a peaceful and relaxing stay at this beautiful beach house. The home was comfortable, well-appointed, and felt like the perfect retreat with spectacular views and stunning sunsets. The host was a fantastic communicator—friendly, proactive, and always quick to respond, which made everything so easy. We felt truly cared for and had everything we needed. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind in a quiet, comfortable, and well-managed space!

We had a great stay with our family the week before Labor Day! The house was homey and comfortable, even without air conditioning, which I realized after booking. Luckily, with the windows open, the temperature never went above 72 degrees, and we remained perfectly comfortable throughout. The location is peaceful, though the beach is mucky and not the best for swimming. However, we enjoyed using the kayaks and stand-up paddle boards, which added a lot of fun to our stay. One note for taller guests: I’m 6’5” and found myself hitting my head on the low door jambs in the northern wing of the house nearly every day. We did note a few minor issues privately after our stay, like the grill catching fire due to greasy flavorizer bars and a lightbulb in the sunroom breaking off in our hands. Hopefully, those will be addressed for future guests. Despite these, we’d definitely stay again!

We loved our stay at Huron Haven. The view was absolutely amazing! We ended up cancelling some of our afternoon plans a couple days just to relax and take in the view of the lake! The house was very spacious and clean, and the kitchen was fully stocked with any gadgets/pots and pans you might need. The location was also great! It was a couple minutes from everything: Mackinac Island ferries, the grocery store, restaurants, etc. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to make a trip to northern Michigan! We hope to stay here again in the future!

Beautiful location. Everything we hoped it to be. We spent a lot of time down at the beach firepit.

Stacey was wonderful! She answered all of my questions prior to our stay. The kitchen was truly a fully stocked kitchen. First time I have not had to bring things from home to be able to cook for our large family. Loved all of the recommendations she gave us for things to do and places to eat. The property was beautiful and very relaxing.

The home was very private and the lake view was astonishingly beautiful. We had a group of 11 (8 adults and 3 children) staying in the house for two nights and it was generally comfortable. We spent some time on the private beach and but did not get into the water. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to find pretty much anything we needed there. There is a gas grill in the backyard that I tried to use but it was very slow to heat up so we ended up using the oven instead. There is fire pit but firewood was not provided and so we had to get some from outside. Our overall experience was positive and would like to stay here again in the future

It was just what we thought. Holiday weekend for our first trip. This was a convenient spot to come back to and relax. Very clean, comfortable. 4 Adults were not crowded. Owner responsive for a few questions. Happy with stay.

Great place to stay right on the lake. Beautiful views from the home. We stayed in the winter, but it was still very pretty to look out. The house was clean and as described in the listing. Great communication!
