Wonderful Lake Huron Family Cottage -->> Prices Dropped for the Off-Season!!

Come Enjoy the Fall & Winter Seasons! (2025 Summer Season Open for Booking!)
• One of our most beautiful seasons is upon us with dropped rates, a slower pace, and lots of peace and quiet! It is our favorite. The ferrys still run back and forth to Mackinac Island, most of the shops stay open in the fall, and the water and weather is still warm! Northern Michigan has one of the best color shows anywhere with trees beginning to turn color in mid-September and lasting over a month! Come enjoy our cozy getaway this Fall and Winter with the many cool weather activities in our area including shopping, skiing, skating, hiking, snowmobiling, sledding, tubing, swimming in our indoor parks, or just relaxing, playing games, and enjoying one another! You won't be disappointed!
• The Pine Tree Cottage is a lovely cottage on Lake Huron, located between Mackinaw City and Cheboygan. It's in a quiet waterfront neighborhood with beautiful views of the aquamarine water of Lake Huron. The owners have worked hard to make this a perfect getaway and you'll find it very comfortable and peaceful.
• The cottage offers 2 bedrooms with an additional single bed available. There are 2 full bathrooms. The master bath contains a large jetted tub and double vanity. There is a TV and DVD player in the living room. The living room has the added benefit of cable TV, office/computer area at one end, and is very spacious at 30' long with plenty of seating area for you and your guests. There is a spacious dining table with seating for 4, a well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook and/or entertain. There is a lovely sun room to enjoy your breakfast or a cup of coffee (or tea). The yard is spacious and the waterfront can be viewed from the living room, sun room and the master bedroom. This is the perfect space to share with your friends and family in beautiful Northern Michigan.
• There is plenty of wildlife in the area. A large variety of birds including owls, eagles, osprey and song birds of every variety, loons, sandhill cranes, trumpeter swans and hummingbirds. There have been several black bear sightings along the US 23 stretch between Mackinaw City and Cheboygan and if you're lucky, you may hear the distant call of a wolf. Active beaver dams can be found at the nearby Mill Creek Discovery Park.
• You don't have to go far for hiking or biking, there is a 62 mile trail across the road from the cottage that you can traverse from Gaylord to Mackinaw City. Wilderness State Park is a short drive away and offers amazing beaches and several hiking trails. The Headlands and the International Dark Sky Park are located 15 minutes away. Northern Lights can be seen from time to time. There are plenty of festivals and events in the area to enjoy.
• The 4th of July celebration in Mackinaw City is one of the best in the State and the Labor Day Bridge Walk attracts thousands to enjoy the annual opportunity to cross the Mighty Mac Bridge on foot. Plenty of shopping and antiquing within a 30 mile range - there is something for everyone. The shoreline here tends to be more sandy than rocky and there are some very nice sandy beaches in both Cheboygan and Mackinaw City that your whole group will enjoy also. Come for a stay and take home memories that will last a lifetime!
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a phone, as well as a desk and a microwave.

A lovely stay
The home was very nice unfortunately we were in the middle of a heat wave even the lake breezes were not adequate for cooling. Access to the lake was a bonus! In our short stay we attended a concert in Cheboygan, visited Mackinac Island and the Soo Locks and also took a glass bottom boat ride out of Cheboygan. And of course had a beer ay Cheyboyagn Brewing!

Thank you so much for allowing us the use of your cabin. We had an amazing stay as it was the first time in the area for 3 of us. We would love to go up there again some day. The only thing my husband wished he had had was a closet for his shirts in the master bedroom.

Long Summer Weekend in August
We loved our stay at the Pine Tree Cottage. The view and accessibility to the water was perfect! You could see the Mackinaw bridge from the beach. It was such a cozy and cute home. Quintessential northern Michigan lake cottage. It had everything we needed for our stay. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very accommodating. Plenty of room for our two teenage kids to lounge and be comfortable. We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings. The close proximity to Mackinaw City, Mackinac Island, and Cheboygan was PERFECT. We brought our two jet skis and enjoyed Mullet Lake as well. Great restaurants and bars nearby with 10 min drive. Hosts were very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to our questions. Will definitely book this little gem again.

Mother and daughter trip
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this site. The view of Lake Huron was beautiful. The lake is RIGHT THERE! No steep steps required to get to the water. The house interior has a rustic homey vibe that we just loved. It reminded us of my parents' home. The house was very clean and comfortable. While we were there, we saw a large eagle in a nearby tree. It was visible from the front window. It was perched in a nearby tree for 20 minutes and then flew off. We also met the next-door neighbors during our stay. Absolutely delightful people. We will certainly return. To the owners: Thank you for sharing your home. And thank you for the wine and candy gift.

Very comfortable
This house was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable and the 2 bedrooms were roomy and private. As an early riser, I appreciated the fact that the kitchen was far enough away from the bedrooms that I didn't disturb the rest of our party while having my coffee. We loved the location being close to the attractions of Mackinaw, but far enough away to be peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed the firepit and appreciated the owner having the wood for us to burn. The kitchen was well equipped as we cooked there every day. I would definitely recommend this property .

Kelli M., Grand Junction, CO

A cozy place
The property was overall ok. It served the need we had, which was a place to sleep. Was it superb? Not really. It is among 3 other properties and not right on the water. You have to walk to the water past 2 other properties. The most significant downfall in my opinion is that looking under the beds, there were cracker crumbs and trash. It has possibly not been vacuumed in a while. Also, it had a musty smell with outdated furniture in the living room. The beds were marginally comfortable and the pillows were lacked fresh feel. kind of limp and cheap. The bathrooms were clean and updated and the kitchen was just fine.
