We had a wonderful week at this property. It was beautiful, clean, and the owners were easy to communicate with. Taking the time to personally walk us through the house was much appreciated! We had a week of walking/playing on the beach, fires and sâmores, and beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We would definitely recommend this property and would happily stay again.
This is our 3rd time at Freedom on the Straits and each time seems more special than the last. Wonderful location, gorgeous property, has everything you could want!
Our family has made this beautiful destination our home away from home. Steve and Eva are such gracious hosts and their home is warm, inviting, clean, and comfortable! We absolutely love the views and all there is to do in the Straits area. This has been our vacation house six times and no other place compares!
The house is absolutely beautiful. There was so much to do and near everything, yet there was privacy to enjoy the lake. The sunsets and sunrises were incredible. We will definitely go back!
We had the BEST time at our first stay in Michigan! This cabin was 100% perfect. It was clean, beautiful, perfect location, right on the water, private & just all around wonderful. The hosts were amazing & answered any questions we had. If your looking for the perfect home away from home this cabin is it. Thank you!
Steve & Eva's home was everything and more. Picture's don't do it justice. Spacious, along with being located right between Mackinaw City & Cheboygan. On Thursday evenings Cheboygan has music in the park during the summer, the ferry's to Mackinaw Island are close, and so much more! And the freighter's, view of the bridge, private beach area is outstanding. Just a tip, my granddaughter's found buried pirate treasure in the sand; $12.91. Legend says there is more :)
Cabin was fantastic; pictures don't do justice. Owners attention to detail is the best I've experienced in 10 years of renting. Memorable day trips to Mackinac Island and Tahquamenon Falls. Good grocery options 7 minutes away in Cheboygen. Good dining and family entertainment options (miniature golf, lumberjack show) 7 minutes away in Mackinaw City. Beautiful sunrises and evening fires.
Steve met and showed us around at check in. He gave tips for local activities and restaurants. From the moment we opened the front door I knew this place was amazing. The view from the foyer was breathtaking and only got better as you walked through the house. We enjoyed several nights around the fire pit watching ships pass through the straits. Do yourself a favor, stay up late to view the stars.
Upon our search for 2nd annual family vacation we came across this house and needed to do a double take from the pics provided on Vrbo is this real! Answer is OMG Absolutely! Pulling up to the home was stunning and meeting the owners upon arrival offering great greetings and info of surrounding areas from shopping to activities but the warmth welcoming as they opened the door to an amazing property ! What you see on vrbo is what you get the stunning view of Lake Huron/the straights off the deck and mini balconies in both bedrooms upstairs and dont forget the amazing view from the monstrous master suite! Not only taking a day trip to mackinaw island but taking a day by the camp fire overlooking and glazing out on Lake Huron seeing boats, liners and most of all the view Mackinaw Bridge!! If your family is looking for a amazing home that provides not only relaxation or close by activities inbetween Cheboygan and Mackinaw city is the place to stay! Our family had a Absolute amazing time and made wonderful memories! Highly recommend and in closing thank you to the owner's for the warm welcome and accommodations for such a beautiful home! PURE MICHIGAN PERFECTION!!
We had a wonderful week with our kids and grandchildren. Steve and Eva are great hosts and provided everything we needed to have a perfect Michigan getaway. Nightly fires, daily kayaking, beautiful sunsets and sunrises, all exceeded our expectations and truly allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation.
Fabulous home and property steps away from Lake Heron and a short ride to Mackinac island.
Elderly parents and their 4 children enjoyed a week vacation on this beautiful property. The home was very well maintained and the hosts were amazing! They thought of everything. We played board games, darts, puzzles, corn hole, kayaking and nightly fires in the fire pit. We also went sightseeing to Mackinac Island. We look forward to coming back!
What is there to say that hasn't already been said. Our family absolutely loves coming up here to Freedom on the Straits and this year was extra special as a new 19 month old addition was able to join us :) It's like coming home for our family and Steve and Eva are the sweetest hosts. Thank you for sharing you little piece of heaven with us!
Wonderful vacation at a beautiful, well maintained property. Stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. We had a chance to decompress and appreciate all the beauty of northern Michigan. We will be back!
The property was incredible and provided a stress-free vacay for the 8 of us. We couldnât have asked for a better week. Comfortable accommodations for everyone, plenty of room, fantastic amenities, and spectacular views/location. Do yourself a favor and book it!
This is the second time we stayed here. I feel like Iâm in Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous at this place! The house and its amenities are wonderful. Thank you Steve and Eva!
We love renting this cabin and would rent it again in a heartbeat! The location is great for going into Cheboygan or making your way to Mackinac City. We love the huge porch and large beachfront area. Everyone that came to visit us enjoyed sitting on the porch and playing in the water. Thank you to Steve and Eva for letting us stay!
