Perfect downtown location

The spot is located right next to downtown. It’s absolutely perfect for a small family or two couples. You can walk to town - that’s how close it is to everything.

Our stay was lovely

Thank you for another wonderful stay-- so close to town, but when we heard that the Perseid meteor shower was visible, we laid on the deck by the front door and did some sky watching. We could see the milky way! The property is quiet and comfortable.

Good Times on BI

The layout of the house, bedroom and shower is a little odd, but had plenty of room and enjoyed our stay. We were usually out adventuring around the island all day. The location is very convenient to town and more importantly....Daddy Frank's Ice Cream Shop!

Quiet location close to town

The property was in a great, quiet location. It could use some repairs and updates, such as hooks for towels and brighter bathroom lighting. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. We were lucky enough to meet our host host and is a very thoughtful and kind person.

Lovely location

We had tried to look at the night sky from the south side of the island, but the clouds got on the way. The next night we laid on the deck of this property and could see meteors, satellites, and even the Milky Way! It’s a lovely location, and we enjoyed our time there.

Perfect for the 2 of us!

My husband and I rented this property for a long weekend, and it was wonderful! Lois and her husband were so welcoming and friendly. The rental was the perfect size for just the two of us (but can also accommodate 2 more), and the location of the property made it an ideal "landing spot" as we explored the community, much of it within easy walking distance. I absolutely recommend this rental!

Great Location and Helpful Hosts

My sister and I brought our parents on a surprise trip to Beaver Island and this was the perfect base for our many adventures. We did not bring a car and it was just a quick walk down the road to shops, museums, restaurants, and the beach. We had bikes that allowed us to travel further out and the host even brought a bike for us to borrow. Despite the convenient location, it was very quiet and we enjoyed our time relaxing on the patio between adventures.

Great Stay

The location was amazing, nice big deck, fully furnished so we didn’t need to bring bedding, towels, kitchen wares. Only suggestion is fixing the electric, couple outlets in the kitchen, wasn’t able to use the microwave. Also no stove so maybe having a small grill would be a great addition. We loved our stay and have already scheduled our next year’s stay!
