4+ acres with 100 feet of sugar sand beach on Lake Huron

Our home is located in Cheboygan in a private setting on Lake Huron about a half mile from the mouth of the Cheboygan River. The home is a Victorian that was built in the late 1800s and was one of the first houses in the original “Duncan City” which was once the county seat of Cheboygan County (1853-1857). The home maintains the feel of a bygone era with its woodwork and stained-glass windows.

The home sits back about 100 yards from the beach and there is a tunnel of trees leading to the water. The private beach area is sandy with a rustic fire pit and tiki bar. From here you can enjoy walking along the beach, looking for driftwood and shells and watching the boats and freighters pass by. The beach is the perfect spot to watch the sunset with views of the Mackinaw Bridge, Mackinaw Island, Bois Blanc Island, the Cheboygan Crib Lighthouse and Poe Reef Lighthouse in the background.

The grounds contain 4+ acres with a mix of mature trees, wooded areas and grassy areas. There is a small rustic playground with swings and a slide, volleyball net, horseshoe pit, basketball net and another small fire pit closer to the house. There is also a large grassy area for the kids to run.

The house is centrally located and is about 2 miles to downtown Main Street. It is also less than a mile from the Little Traverse Conservatory Nature Preserve (in one direction) and the Cheboygan State Park in another direction. The rental comes with 5 bikes (3 adult and 2 smaller bikes) for use while exploring the area. A grill is also provided for use during your stay.

There are 4 bedrooms - 2 with queen beds, a third with a twin bed and the fourth with a full bed and a twin bed (beds for 8). There are several fireplaces in the house but they are currently non-operational.

Beautiful Place
WOW!! What a beautiful retreat! my husband and I booked this place for my 53rd birthday, looking to kayak and spend time outdoors. We were in awe at the beauty of this property. Outside and in. Love the older house, the woodwork and stain glass windows. The outside property is a dream, all the space and a nice walk to the awesome private beach! Everything is so well cared for. The owner/host has thought of everything! We did bring our kayaks, the weather was terrific so we paddled the bay area in both directions. Had a fantastic time. So grateful we found this place, we are so ready to come back!!

Great hosts and house with private beach
This is a great find for those looking to relax and unwind! House and garage have everything you need with gracious hosts happy to respond quickly to you. Not much around the house to do but if you drive a bit, lots to do and of course you can’t beat the beach and beauty of the lake!

A Cheboygan Beauty
Charming and spacious home. Gorgeous old style architecture and trim. Perfect for our family getaway. Close to Cheboygan and Mackinaw City. Lots of games (like horseshoes etc), bicycles (which we used quite a bit) and amenities. One nice touch- at least one of the rooms if the lights are off and you open the closet the motion sensor lights up the closet. Pretty cool. Also lots of outdoor chairs for our family to hang out together outside in the beautiful weather. Highly recommend!

This home is beautiful and has absolutely everything a family could need. My family choose to unplug for the week and just relax in this very peaceful home. We enjoyed every minute of this very overdue vacation. Thank you! PS. I would recommend painting the horseshoes two distinct colors.

This was the best house we have ever stayed in. It is a beautiful house in itself, however they keep the house and property so clean and fully stocked of everything and anything you would need. The property managers are easy to reach and so attentive to any needs. They gave great recommendations for dinner! The kids always had something to do, especially when it rained. They have every game and dvd imaginable. As well as, a great collection of books for all ages. This will be our go to house whenever we are in the area. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful stay
We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay. This home was equipped with everything we could need and we all instantly felt at home. I couldn’t believe all the things they had available for children to enjoy. I have 4 children, 8 years and under, and they always had something fun to do. The beach was absolutely perfect for them and as a mom, I always felt like they were safe. The gentleman in charge of the property made sure we knew of his availability if we needed anything, which was so kind. This is certainly a home I know we’d love to return to when we head back to this area of Michigan in the future.

Exceptionally clean house, beautiful beach, and so many extras! The kids loved the scooters and huge bottle of homemade bubble stuff. You can tell the owner hosts really know what they’re doing and care about their guests. They even were amenable to my special request, which gave me much peace of mind. Hosts were very responsive and friendly. This large house is perfect for a big family. Pictures don’t do it justice!

Beautiful beach home
It is a beautiful home, with just a short walk to the beach. The bea ch is quite private, on a very calm part of Lake Huron. We were treated well by property management. There was plenty of f room relax, inside, outside, and at the beach. It was a five minute or less ride to downtown Cheboygan. One warning, Google maps kept trying to get us turn one block after the street that the house is actually on!

Great Cheboygan Vacation
My family and I had a great, relaxing, fun vacation at your home. The house was large so we all could be separate from each other comfortably but yet could all gather comfortably in the living room having fun. The very short walk down a manicured lawn lined by tall trees on both sides to the private beach was breathtaking and fun on a daily basis. Swimming in the lake was a blast. You can walk for hundreds of yard out in the lake without any problem. The property provided so many fun things to do (basketball games, horseshoe games, volleyball games, bicycling, corn hole games). Emily and Joe were fantastic caretakers of the house/property. They welcomed us shortly after we arrived. They were readily available and quickly handled any issues all the while leaving us alone to enjoy the vacation. Joe took us on a wonderful/relaxing pontoon boat trip down rivers into two different lakes. The vacation trip to your house gave my wife, sons, and me valuable relaxation and fun.

Charm and comfort
This house was the best place we’ve ever stayed. The attention to detail was amazing, from the basket of hometown goodies in the table when you walked in to the jug of homemade bubbles for our granddaughter to enjoy. The garage was full of beach toys, bikes, extra chairs and so much more. We were blown away! And if that’s not enough the grounds were spacious, well maintained and had yard games. The house is wonderful as it will take you back in time with it’s early century charm. The bedrooms are quiet, comfortable and private. The kitchen was equipped with more items then my own. The appliances worked flawlessly. There is a comfortable quiet reading chair for everyone. Two large living rooms for gathering too. The bathrooms were modern and clean. There’s more; Emillie, the property manager, was kind and very responsive. What a delightful person! I could go on but I won’t. Just know this place was a great value for the money and we’ll be back! Thank you Mandy and Emillie 🥰
