“Eulenhaus” or “Owl house”
A quiet retreat without the noises of humans. Off the main road in the middle of gorgeous cedars just 200 yards off the beach of Lake Huron - just walk straight down to the beach.
Waves rolling onto the beach, the eagles are soaring and the dear are crossing right in front of the house. This year we have a set of twins from our dear deer. The Grouse showed me five chicks a couple of days ago. Sorry, no hunting on the property.
An outside fire pit and a rap around porch are ideal to hang out. Outside dining on a table that seats 10 under the front porch roof.
The heart of the home is the kitchen. The humongous island seats a lot of people.
Best place for playing cards, rolling the dice or mixing up a pitcher of whatever drink you like.
A gorgeous propan stainless steel gas grill with 5 burners and a side burner for the “chef” assists with cocking and extends the kitchen to the outside.
In front of the House is a fire pit for wood or charcoal fires. More possibilities to cuddle up and enjoy s’mores.
A grate on top - and you bring the steaks!
The house has all amenities. A fully stocked kitchen and an spacious bathroom including washer and dryer.
There is a smart TV and internet.
4 fishing poles are available for your convenience. You have to get your fishing or hunting license yourself!
„Eulenhaus“ Cottage is located on the east side of Bois Blanc Island, 5 miles from Cheboygan on the mainland where most visitors embark by scheduled seasonal ferry service or year round air service.

Go swimming right off the beach in a very remote bay at "Snow Beach" Bay just 1.5 miles from the cottage, or hike, bike, hunt, ski or run on the primarily flat dirt roads and trails. Winter is adventure season. Cross the ice bridge with your snowmobile!!
