Excellent Home Base to enjoy Beaver Island
This cottage is a solid home base if you’re exploring Beaver Island for the first time, or any time. Spacious, nice view of the bay, walking distance to the Whiskey Point Brewery, the market for groceries, and the small marine museum is almost directly across the street. It’s a 2-minute drive from the rest of the shops and dining Beaver has to offer. Aside from our mattress being pretty far gone, the cottage is comfortable and has everything you’ll need to stay for a few days or longer. Highly recommend!

Family Fun on Beaver Island
My family had a wonderful time staying in this beach cabin on Beaver Island! Lots of places to sit and gather for meals and games and comfortable beds/bedrooms. Close to town to walk for groceries or food. We've never been to Beaver Island before, but we plan to be back- and we would stay here again!

Highly recommend
We had a very nice stay at the Harbor View house. It is definitely one of the best house views of St. James Bay! The host had the house stocked with everything our family needed, so the only things we had to bring were our food, clothes and personal care items. We opted to bring our bikes and our car to get around the entire island but this house is within walking distance of the beautiful Whiskey Point lighthouse, grocery store, brewery, delicatessen, beach, hardware store, e-bike rentals and hiking trails. We’ve been to Beaver Island many times over the years but never stayed in town. Staying in town offered a new, neat perspective compared to the more remote and rustic places we’ve stayed and camped in the past. The host was great and made sure we got settled okay, and let us know who to contact for questions or issues but we didn’t end up having any. Would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a nice house in town with a great view!

Whole family impressed and eager to return!
My family and I were so excited at the opportunity to stay at this home for the week as it previously was the home that my grandfather was born and grew up in. No one in my immediate family has been in the home in over 50 years and we were eager to see how it had been updated. Keith and Sheri have done an incredible job of renovating the cottage while maintaining the original harbor character of the home which we appreciated! The location is perfect as it is right across from the Marine Museum and being within easy walking distance of McDonough’s grocery store, Dalwhinnie’s (one of our favorite restaurants for breakfast and lunch), the Toy Museum, and Whiskey Point Brewing Company. We had no issues during our stay but even still Keith and Sheri were very communicative to ensure the stay met our expectations. We’re already thinking about our next visit to the island and it feels guaranteed that we will try to stay here again!

We loved the coziness of the cottage. Perfect for what we wanted. We spent all day exploring the island, and came back to a nice place to warm up sleep. The couch is uncomfortable to sit on. But the view is worth adding an extra pillow.

This is a lovely little house within walking distance of downtown. Amazing views of the bay with a deck to soak in the sunsets. The hosts provided everything we needed and were very accommodating when we needed to adjust our schedule. Some aspects of the house were a little out dated or in need of cleaning, but overall it was perfect for our needs.

Good experience
There were a few hiccups in the beginning but the care, compassion, and good communication with Keith and Sherry helped to mitigate our concerns to make our stay an overall positive experience. It’s a great location with much to do within walking distance. Great place for families with more than adequate amenities for a weekly stay.
