Carter's Getaway Drummond Island vacation rental

Drummond Island is comprised of 87,000 acres, 150 miles of rugged scenic shoreline, 133 square miles of forested landscape, and 34 inland lakes. Within this diverse habitat, a number of rare species, land formations and plants can be found. Drummond Island and its surrounding waters offer a wide mix of land forms to explore. Getting to most of them is easy; getting to some of them has been described as gut-wrenching. The second largest island in the Great Lakes of Michigan, Drummond is located a short ferry ride from the eastern tip of the Upper Peninsula. Therefore, the Island is a relatively easy place to visit for your own natural history adventure. The local attitude toward visitors, “Come often, play nicely,” has paid off in the protection of a wide range of unique public places for you to explore. It is no secret among Anglers that Drummond Island “is” The Gem of the Huron. The waters are as diverse as the fish, aquatic and other types of water wildlife. From it’s pristine clear blue waters and rocky shorelines to underwater shoals and reefs, sand and gravel substrates and vast weed beds, combined with shallow soft bottom flats creates a true Mecca of opportunity to experience fishing at it’s best. This area truly is God’s country. The peace and serenity you will find will have you longing for a return visit to this outdoor paradise. Bring the family and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Peaceful getaway
Wonderful week on Drummond Island! Very comfortable house with great view of water, spectacular sunrises, and waterfowl. So relaxing sitting on deck listening to lapping of water and chirping of birds. The kitchen is well stocked, beds comfy, and plenty of hot water for showers. Rooms are all on one level which was a plus for our senior knees! This is a special find and we hope to return next year!

Jeep trail riding trip
Upon arrival the house was not cleaned, but was quickly resolved as the house keeper was confused on the day of our arrival. She was very kind and friendly and felt terrible about the situation. The house otherwise was great and was just what we needed for our stay for our little jeep trip!

Jeep club excursion
Very peaceful and calming. The early morning coffee on the deck is so peaceful. A nice breeze in the late evening causes wave noise against the shore is so settling. Sherry is a perfect host for the property along with River. will be booking again for our next stay on the island. Thank you for letting us invade your space and hopefully we were peaceful neighbors for our short stay with you and yours. BK

Awesome
Loved the property manager, Sherry, and her dog River Rose. The house was awesome and the views couldn’t have gotten any better. The only drawback was the steepish slope to the water and all the rocks. I would definitely stay here, again and again. Thank you so much Sherry for making us feel comfortable and welcomed and for the owners of the property for opening up for others to enjoy.

Fantastic place to stay!
I can not say enough great things about this place! The communication with the owner and property manager was great and timely. The house is so much bigger than what the pictures show. Beautiful sunrises. Sherry was a hoot and so helpful! I will definitely be renting this place every time we come to the island! Excellent job with it! I would add a shower curtain or a blind in the bathroom though but that's just me. Beautiful bathroom though too
