About this property

Lakefront Home with Spectacular View

Rent this entire two story duplex located in Michigan's Upper Peninsula just 20 minutes west of St. Ignace (near Brevort). This home offers a spectacular view of Lake Michigan's north shore. Enjoy nature and the beauty of Lake Michigan from your front window throughout the day. Take a private stroll along the beach at a little known and private beach setting accessible just 100 yards West of the front door.
This beach area is about 20' below US 2, and it's not even visible to the vehicles on the highway. Furthermore, US2 curves inland, so the farther West you go, the more remote the beach becomes.

Satellite TV and internet!

This duplex is ideal for large families, or 2 small families, and offers a 2 bedroom 1st floor (1 Queen, 1 Full) with spacious living room w/sofa, comfortably sleeping up to 4 people. The second floor has 2 bedrooms (both Queen) and a spacious kitchen/living room w/Futon and will comfortably sleep up to 6. The upstairs and downstairs have separate entrances, offering both the kids and adults the privacy they desire.

The duplex is easy to get to, located on West US 2, just 20 minutes from the Mackinac Bridge. The property is about 100 ft. back from the 2 lane highway. The highway runs adjacent to the beach, and is between the duplex and the beach.

Hiking: The property abuts a vast area of state and federal forest land and offers great wilderness hiking including Switchback Ridge which is a large inland dune just 1/2 mile away. There are some majestic views from that ridge line! As well, the popular North Country Trail that stretches from New York to North Dakota can be picked up just a few miles away. There are a network of trails and 2 tracks leading through the woods so be sure to bring your compass if you plan to do any adventuring.

Nearby Attractions: Nearby attractions include Mackinac Island (a ferry ride from St. Ignace), Tahquamenon Falls (1 Hr.), Whitefish Point (1 Hr.) the Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie (1 Hr.). Pictured Rocks is about 2+1/2 Hrs away, but it is worth it! You can take the boat tour (though its a bit pricey) or just take in the land lover's view for free at Miners Castle. It's breath taking. If you go, don't forget to stop and stick your toes in the sand at beautiful Miners Beach - you'll see it through the woods from the lookout at Miners Castle. P.S. Don't expect a man made castle at the lookout, but it's no less impressive! The 5 hr. shoreline hike between Mosquito Falls and Chapel Rock is dazzling, but bring bug spray!!

If you enjoy some occasional gambling, there are casinos in many of the 'major' cities of the UP.

If you just like souvenir shopping and tasting the flavors of the local cuisine, St. Ignace will have what you are looking for.

Fishing: Rent a boat or canoe (or drop in your own) in nearby Big Brevort Lake to work on a a fresh fish dinner (perch, pike, walleye, bass & panfish) for the evening. Alternately, charter a fishing boat out of St. Ignace and try your luck in the waters of Lake Michigan or Lake Huron.

Good Vacation Spot
Our first time in the U.P. so we were going in blind. House was exactly what we needed for our group. If your looking for fancy, this isn't the place but definitely adequate and was well stocked with everything you would need away from home. The road is very busy and loud with lots of truck traffic so that is something to consider if you like peace and quiet. The house sits back off the road though. The secluded beach makes up for the busy road and makes the location well worth it.

Family Vacation
This house was perfect for our family of 5, the (adult) kids loved having their own apartment to themselves upstairs, while my husband and I enjoyed the downstairs. The entire house was clean and everything we needed was provided. The panoramic view of Lake Michigan is incredible and the little hike down the hill to the very private, sandy beach is well worth it. Wonderful swimming and gorgeous sunsets all week♥️ The bugs weren’t too bad, although my husband found a tick on his leg after we had been outside for awhile gathering firewood, so watch out for them! The campfire helped drive away the hungry mosquitoes. On clear nights the stars were like a blanket of diamonds in the sky- just spectacular!! The location is also great distance for day trips to Grand Marais, Pictured Rocks, Whitefish Point, Manistique area/Kitch-iti-kipi, and Tahquamenon Falls are all within 90 minutes drive. We had a great stay, would definitely recommend this place, and would consider staying here again if we are lucky enough to get back to this beautiful area
