We would like to assure you that every precaution has been taken and the housekeeping staff follows the CDC guidelines for cleanliness. Please review house manual.

When you arrive, there is a horseshoe driveway - Little Lem's is on the left when you enter the driveway from the north end. The name of the property is displayed near the door of the outside of each unit.

This adorable little gem was re-constructed in 2016 from top to bottom and the location is indeed paradise. Comfy beds, a sleeper sofa if needed and a spacious dining area are yours to enjoy. We provide all linens and plush bath towels - we just ask that you bring your own beach towels. The kitchen comes complete with a refrigerator and stove, pots and pans, dishes and silverware. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a trip with the kids. There is plenty of parking for boats and recreational vehicles. It sits on a beautifully landscaped 5 acre lawn with lots of room to roam. Swim (yes it has a sandy beach but still has the typical Lake Huron rocks so bring water shoes), nightly campfires on the waterfront, horseshoes in the yard. We see lots of wildlife - deer, fox, coyote and very recently a black bear! The park-like atmosphere will beckon you to enjoy your meals outside on the picnic table. It has a full kitchen and all the necessary supplies but you might want to cook burgers or dogs on the grill just outside your door. It's a quick 5 minutes to Mackinaw City and all it has to offer. Hop on a ferry for a ride to the popular Mackinac Island and take a trip back in time. Enjoy a Starbucks coffee and try the zipline in town. There is plenty of shopping and dining in town or head to Cheboygan - about a 10 minute drive in the opposite direction. Shop or dine at the many options available to you. Rent a boat in Cheboygan and take the Inland Waterway tour through a chain of lakes. Bring your bikes because there is a 60 mile trail across the road from the properties that will take you all the way to Gaylord if you want or a quick 5 mile trip to Mackinaw City. This is a great base camp for all of your Northern Michigan adventures.

Little Lems sits on 5 acres along with Lem's Paradise, Lem's Paradise #2, and the Million Dollar View Cottage. They share the property and 330 feet of frontage on Lake Huron. You can rent any of them separately or together if you need extra space for a large family gathering. (There are beds for a total of 18) All bedding, linens, dishes, etc. are included. Our guests love the views and the peacefulness of the property. Guests will have access to the 5 acres and waterfront on Lake Huron. There are picnic tables, a deck, charcoal grill and fire pit for guests to use.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television along with a DVD player are provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on a limited basis.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great little cottage on the lake! Very close to Mackinaw City, beautiful lake views. Perfect for our dad daughter trip to walk the bridge on Labor Day. It’s tough to see the driveway at night but luckily there’s a second chance with the horseshoe driveway.

Made our honeymoon special
When my wife and i arrived to the property we were greeted by the owner who came by and gave us homemade cookies which were delicious. The cottage itself is very cute and homey. The property is maintained very well and looks better that it does in the photos. It is such a peaceful place and is perfect for spending time with family while being a convenient distance from the island.

Time well spent.
Cabin was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was difficult though. Very small. Shower was adequate but shampoo/soap holder would work better if it was on the side instead of hanging from shower head. The connection for the shower hose came loose from the weight of it.

Perfect location
Just Kevin was perfect for us, only drawback was a very small bathroom. The location couldn't have been better, only 5 miles to Mackinaw City and the ferry to Mackinac Island,and very close to Cheboygan too. View of the lake was beautiful and we spent a lot of time sitting on the swing down by the water. House was very friendly and accommodating and a wealth of information and things to seem to in the area. Would definitely stay again but would out for one of the other rooms with a bigger bathroom, and a bedroom with a door separating it from the main living area.

Lakefront cottage
The cottage was just as pictured and described. It was close to all the activities that we wanted to do. The view was beautiful and the bike trail across the street was great. We spent one day riding around Mackinac Island, another day riding the trail to Cheboygan and exploring the city, and another kayaking right from the property. The owners were super nice and helpful, and the homemade cookies were delicious! It was a perfect getaway to celebrate our anniversary!

Mackinac Island trip
The house was great, it was just enough for all of us. And it was nice being able to have your own beach to swim at, fire pit, and the views were great. And both Cheboygan and Mackinaw City were very close to the house if you needed anything, or to catch the ferry to Mackinac Island. I would come back again if we do another trip to the Island.

Can we move in?
WOW! We LOVED Lem’s Paradise and will definitely be back. Everything about this place is fantastic. The owners are super sweet and accommodating, even baking cookies for our family. The cottage was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We appreciated the little charcoal grill that was supplied and the grate over the fire pit. The swing was perfectly placed on the PRIVATE beach to see the fireworks over the bridge at night. We enjoyed swimming in the water, which was shallow and warm. We enjoyed a quiet bonfire where we ate s’mores, enjoyed the lake and lights from the bridge, and then read the Legend of Mackinac. From Lem’s you could really see the “turtle shape” and our kiddos loved that. We were amazed to see the Northern Lights one night. My husband and I were able to sneak away from the cabin because our baby monitor reached to the lake. Lem’s Paradise truly is everything you need for a perfect Michigan getaway. It was fantastic and we are ready to pack our bags and move in! ❤️

Loved it!
The property is beautiful! Everything we needed to provided. We didn’t ask for the homemade cookies but dang they were good. The teens loved the lake and we were able to play even though it was cold! We used the fire pit down by the lake and loved sitting out there. It was close enough to everything but nice to have quiet at night. Everything in the cabin was perfect. Enough towels, bedding and some extras. Thank you for having us. We loved our time!!
