À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

Cottage historique sur la meilleure plage dans la zone de Mackinaw

Cette plage chalet 1925 a Ă©tĂ© la premiĂšre maison Ă  ĂȘtre construit sur la magnifique baie de Cecil. La plage de sable juste en face de celui-ci n'a pas de pierres ou de mauvaises herbes, que du sable Ă©tirement plus d'un mile de long. Il fait face Ă  l'ouest, de sorte que les brises fraĂźches et les couchers de soleil sont pleins la norme. Le chalet est trĂšs bien conservĂ© pour cette quintessence expĂ©rience Northern Michigan.

Sortez votre porte arriĂšre sur le chemin de sable pour nager dans l'eau chaude que les piscines Ă  Cecil Bay. Le sable se prolonge sur deux cents et Ă  50 yards seulement 2 pieds de profondeur, parfait pour chĂąteaux de sable et les petits qui les construisent.

Une mise de quatre minutes en voiture vous met au quai du traversier à l'ßle de Mackinac. Wilderness State Park, la réserve naturelle Headlands Preserve, le refuge naturel French Farm Lake Wildlife Refuge, le fort Michilimackinac, les parcs aquatiques, les terrains de golf et le complexe de vente au détail sans voiture 'Crossings' se trouvent à moins de 5 km.



Cette plage a de l'eau chaude soufflée par les vents dominants. Il est en forme de croissant et capture l'eau de surface réchauffée. Il est pas rare que cette eau soit 10-15 degrés au-dessus celle du lac ouvert. Les vents dominants apportent également des brises fraßches au large du lac sur les journées chaudes.

La longue vĂ©randa de 30 pieds est projetĂ©, mais il a aussi un panneau d'Ă©cran de 12 pieds articulĂ©s en haut pour accrocher l'Ă©cran hors de la vue. Ceci est oĂč le pendre Ă  double siĂšge et un petit canapĂ© sont situĂ©s. La plupart du temps vous n'aurez pas Ă  abaisser cet Ă©cran parce que la brise empĂȘche les insectes d'entrer. Le porche est relativement Ă©levĂ©e du sol (plus Ă©levĂ© que ce qui est communĂ©ment construit aujourd'hui), de sorte que la vue sur le lac est amĂ©liorĂ©e.



Lac Huron ou du lac Michigan?: Allez au bureau local de l'immobilier et vous trouverez que le lac Huron moyen métrage va pour moins de 1000 $

Le prix moyen de vente du lac Michigan images sur le mile de la plage au milieu de Cecil Bay va pour plus de 4000 $ par pied, quand il est disponible.

En effet, sur Cecil Bay nous obtenons:

    Plage de sable, pas de mauvaises herbes ou des pierres (mĂȘme pas peu ceux Ă  proximitĂ© du rivage), en pente douce sur cinq pieds de profondeur environ 150 verges du rivage. zone sandcastle parfait au bord de l'eau. Ce sont tous liĂ©s parce que les vents dominants font la plage de sable, garder les buissons et les arbres de plus en plus sur la plage, refroidir la terre, etc.

Debout sur la plage, vous pouvez voir miles de littoral peu dĂ©veloppĂ©. Headlands du comtĂ© de Emmet prĂ©server est Ă  cinq minutes Ă  pied de la plage. Sur le cĂŽtĂ© sud de la Wilderness State Park Cecil Bay Ă©tend des miles dans l'horizon. De l'autre cĂŽtĂ© de Wilderness Pk Dr il ​​y a la forĂȘt domaniale de sous-dĂ©veloppĂ©s, y compris le français Farm Wildlife Refuge, les trois mile lac long l'intĂ©rieur des terres oĂč les habitants pĂȘchent et birdwatch. Tout son littoral reste peu dĂ©veloppĂ©, mais il y a beaucoup de randonnĂ©es et pistes cyclables, avec une rampe de lancement pour les bateaux de pĂȘche, des canoĂ«s et des kayaks.

Mais vous n'ĂȘtes pas vraiment loin de la civilisation parce que tous les restaurants, le shopping et la vie nocturne de Mackinaw City est un lecteur de 3 mile facile. Si vous n'ĂȘtes pas allĂ© Ă  Mackinaw City dans quelques annĂ©es, vous serez surpris. Bien sĂ»r, les quais de ferry Mackinac Island sont lĂ , mais ne manquez pas les phares historiques et fort.

The perfect place to take my parents for the weekend.

The cabin was charming and felt like stepping back in time, to when life was simpler - a great way to disconnect from our crazy everyday lives. We lit a fire in the fireplace and it was very cozy. The location was fantastic - the beach is beautiful and tranquil, and the ferry to Mackinac Island is very close. Our host Ross and local host Judy were very kind and helpful. We definitely plan to return.

Everything was great! Judy and Ross were extremely helpful and made us feel like we were at home. I purposed while staying and Ross was kind enough to assist me with ideal locations both at the cottage as well as on the island. We will definitely be regular customers.

A step back in time

This cottage had everything we needed-a screened in porch with a swing and a great breeeze - its own little dune walk to a private beach (with a nice grill and picnic table in the shade) 4 nice chairs on the beach for sunning, napping and star gazing.!!! We had the feeling of being in our Grandmothers family cottage NO T.V was a plus!!!!

Great Views

PROS: This place was cozy/rustic and had great views of the sunsets. It was right on the water! Perfect! It also was close to town and very convenient. CONS: No cell service on the property (T-Mobile) and no Internet service available. Bummer. The furniture throughout needs to be changed and then this would be a great place!

Amazing property and unique home

We absolutely loved staying at this cabin. It is a one of a kind cabin, thoughtfully restored to transport you back in time. It's unique. A very old propane stove and irefrigerator add to the charm. Because it's an old home, don't expect to have all of the modern comforts - but if you want to connect to nature and disconnect from the modern world (like we did) then look no further. We stayed in the middle of July and the lake air was more than enough to cool the house. The screened in porch is a breathtaking place to take in your morning coffee, while looking at the tide on your a gorgeous semi-private beach. The hosts were generous and easy to communicate with. We loved the place and would totally return. Be sure to read the description well because it's not for everyone. There are some quirks - only one bathroom on the lower floor near the kitchen and the only shower inside one of the bedrooms. Again, classic lake cabins were built differently, and this house is wonderfully authentic. If you have a sense of adventure and don't mind the quirkiness, then it's a great place to stay.

Misleading Advertising

Overall mediocre at best. Very rustic. It was mostly clean and adequately furnished. The WIFI did not work for 2 days and owner did not respond until 3rd day when more data was purchased (data was used up). The furniture is well worn and beds not good. The ad says one bathroom, which is misleading as the pieces are not all in one room. The one toilet is extremely small and is in the kitchen. The one shower stall is in the middle of a bedroom, not in a bathroom. The refrigerator froze everything. The pictures show a quaint cottage but are misleading as they crop out alot. Also was very difficult to find from the street. Lots of overgrowth and the address is had to see as it is sharpie markered on a fence post.

Perfect location

Overall we greatly enjoyed our time here. However, there were a few issues. First, the freezer melted our ice cream. Second, we were basically told "good luck" about using the oven, which would have been nice to know before we bought groceries. Third, the heat had already been turned off for the season and it was COLD at night. Thankfully some of the beds had heaters, which was great. The fireplace downstairs is just for looks/ambience. It provided no heat to the room when on. There were only 3 beach chairs, even though they knew we were a group of 5. If we had been told in advance, we could have brought 2 more. Overall, the cabin was great. It felt rustic and relaxing. The location was great. The beach was perfect (be aware there are TONS of bugs if the wind is blowing the wrong way). We would stay here again at the price we paid, but not at high season prices.

Keep searching

The location of this cottage is worth the trip, but there are nicer homes on the same beach that cost less. Yes, the cottage is old and a bit rustic, but what was so disappointing and insulting was that there was no effort made to make the stay more comfortable. The oven didn’t work, there was no propane tank for the grill, the 1950s fridge froze all of our food, the provided crockpot and the microwave were at least 30 years old and tired and small, there was no plunger for the one toilet, the heater didn’t work, and the shower stall is in the middle of a bedroom. The couches and beds looked like they were bought at garage sale and the beach chairs were torn and cracked. For the money each week’s rental brings in, there’s no excuse to not update the few creature comforts that could make a family’s stay more pleasant.

The most amazing sunsets I have ever seen!!

When we arrived at first we were in shell shock. Coming from a large city to this cottage was like detaching from the world. Judy was amazing and brought us wood for our stay!! We had beach fires and the beautiful indoor fireplace was lit every night. This cottage has the most beautiful views of sunsets and even afterglows that last an hour that illuminate the sky in vivid reds. We pulled up the screen on the back patio and enjoyed every sunset!! Binoculars were a nice touch as well to see boats and traffic far out into the lake. We never wanted to leave once we realized our WiFi and phones did not work lol... no emails or business call could touch us! Our party consisted of 3 adults and 2 pit bulls. My mother joined myself and my fiancĂ©. There was enough privacy on the beach for my dogs to swim and run free which I really enjoyed. There is a public beach a ways down and we had no issues with people in our private area. It was a holiday weekend and had very little traffic at all on the public beach. We got up early for coffee and watched a family of wild turkey strut down the beach one morning. My mother is 70 and she took the downstairs bedroom. She was comfortable and rested well during our stay. We took the upstairs bedroom without the shower and we too had a comfy bed. The shower is a box shower that’s located upstairs in a bedroom. This cottage is not a luxury cabin nor is it handicap accessible. The toilet and sink are downstairs directly off the kitchen. It has been preserved very well and was neat and tidy. I give this property a five star rating because it totally detached me from the world and I felt as if I was living back in the early 1900’s. Luxury? No. But time spent? Priceless! Thank you for your amazing hospitality and thank you again Judy. We will be back soon!!

Stunning view, beautiful cottage & QUIET đŸ„°

If you're looking for a place to rest and rejuvenate, this is it. Every inch of this gorgeous cottage has a story to tell. The doors, windows, fireplace, floors, walls, etc. have all seen more than a century of life being lived. Leave all your negative energy behind and come sit on the porch or beach and breath in the positivity and beauty the great lake has to offer.

Rustic but quaint

As with the other reviews have said it is rustic but the view from the screened in porch of the bay, the closeness of the beach, how clean the beach is, and how shallow the water is makes up for the rustic nature. The cabin is old. Like older cabins the kitchen and bathroom was small, few things are updated. We dubbed the bedroom with the shower as the "shower bedroom" and there was only two couples so it was not a big deal. It was warm when we stayed but the breeze from the bay made it more than comfortable. We enjoyed being close to Mackinaw City and to ferry that goes to Mackinac Island.

View is Spectacular

This is a really old cottage. The furniture is really old, and should have been trashed decades ago. I get the “keeping it authentic” vibe, but their is a line to enjoying the space and having some modern comforts. No air conditioning so you rely on Mother Nature for a breeze off the beach. It was bearable 3 of the 4 nights, but the last night was dead calm and humid. The homes along the shore look all to be updated with modern amenities, and this is an old cottage that has served her purpose. Let her Rest In Peace.

Beautiful on the Bay

Cottage is in the perfect location for beach walks, swimming, hiking, biking, sunsets & stars! It seems to take you back to the early 1900s with decor and appliances (original?) from that Era. We enjoyed the authentic vibe and you will too if you don't mind the rustic comforts of yesteryear. Only minor toiletry and kitchen utensil inconveniences.

A very rustic cabin with charm on a truly amazing beach

My wife an I stayed here for a working vacation for a week in early October. We had a great time and would come back to this property. The location is lovely and dramatic. The beach and the region are amazing with wonderful sand, great sunsets, calm waters and close to fantastic hiking and a less than 10-minute drive to Mackinaw City for provisions or restaurant visits. The description of the property is accurate. I was raised in Northern Michigan and have been inside a lot of hunting cabins and this property is more finely appointed than just about all of those, we did feel a little bit like we were camping. That’s a vibe we were happy to roll with but it might not be for everyone. I feel like the quirks were clearly communicated in the listing, but there are probably some easy changes that would improve the appeal and charm of the place, making it feel a little more worn-in and a little less worn out. A few comments for anyone looking for clarity. It might sleep 10 but the toilet and shower situation would create conflict for most groups larger than three; there’s not a lot of space dedicated to accommodate personal hygiene. The fireplace is fantastic. Definitely bring some wood and charcoal for the grill, which is in a very pleasant spot for drinking a beer while flipping burgers. The couch is among the most uncomfortable pieces of furniture I have ever sat on and may be productively upgraded if it were replaced with three milk crates. Most or all of the outlets are vintage and can’t accommodate a plug with a grounding prong, so plan ahead if you might need adaptors for anything electronic. The internet worked well for us, but the TV did not have any web connection nor cable. If you don’t want to watch TV or are happy pulling a “Betty Boop” VHS off the media shelf, you’ll be fine. If you’d like to keep an eye on the game, bring your Roku from home. There’s probably a little more knick-knack clutter in the space than most would prefer; it would look better and would be more livable if it were thinned out considerably. The kitchen is extremely vintage—I would have lost a bet about whether or not a working fridge that old was still in use in North America—and adds some Northwoods charm, but preparing a large meal would require a little focus and dedication. A sometimes lovable sometimes sometimes shabby home on a great beach on a great lake.

Birthday Getaway

Property was exactly as described. The charm of a 1920's era cottage that kept true to the theme. Rachael, the local contact, led us through the ins and outs. We had wonderful weather and Cecil Bay... breathtaking. If you have questions about what a 1920's property is.. check with the owner before you book!!

Perfect

This rental is a piece of history and Ross has kept it true to its original design- it’s like stepping into a piece of history, and you won’t want to leave. Phenomenal location so close to Mackinac City yet you feel like you’re in your own little secluded dreamland on a crystal blue bay. Bring your kayaks and spend the days floating in the pristine water! I saw some reviews that put the age of the home in a negative light- look, this house is 100 years old, built before anything else in the area. It’s in amazing condition for its age. The appliances, the furniture, the decor- all of it is clean, in working order, comfortable, and awesome to look at. If you want granite counter tops and a turbo luxury shower, look elsewhere. If you want to feel like you’re on vacation in a homey, unique, and just plain beautiful vintage cabin on the lake, you can’t get much better than this!

Relaxing getaway

We had such a wonderful time. We spent Most of our time on the beach building sandcastles, playing frisbee in the water, or warming up by the fire as the sun went down. It rained a half of a day one day, so we spent it playing games or reading books. You do not need to go to the dark skies park, just walk out to the beach and look up. Absolutely beautiful.

That's me on the right with family, having lunch on the Fort Mackinaw deck (highly recommended). Down below, see the straits of Mackinaw and the Mackinac Island ferry docks and harbor. The ferry docks on the mainland side are only 2.5 miles from the cottage. We sometimes ride our bicycles to the ferry dock for our trip to the Island.

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

My parents have owned lakefront on Burt Lake since 1972. For three years I was looking for a west facing sandy lakefront property with no stones, rocks, or weeds growing in the water. When I found this bay I got that, and I was surprised to find out that the water temperature is also much higher than the open lake. It is very far from any industry or municipality treatment plants.
