Nice destination property
Great location! Never felt like we wanted to leave the beach and the view. Sunrises and starry skies. If you actually need a place for eleven people, the one small bath could be a minor inconvenience.

Great Stay!
We came to this cabin in October for a week long stay to explore Beaver Island and check out some land we purchased the year prior, as our first time on the island the home we rented did not disappoint, it was clean and cozy feeling from the start of our trip to the end, the firepit on the beach was a great place to catch up with friends and enjoy the night, the star gazing off the deck between midnight and 2AM is absolutely unlike anything we've ever experienced, we cannot wait to book our next trip here. 5 Stars from our group!!

Great, quiet location with beautiful views
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this quaint property on Sand Bay. Soft walkable sand beach with beautiful sunrises was just steps from the back door! Owner was quickly responsive to inquiries. House was furnished with all of the amenities needed to have a comfortable, quiet stay. Kayak and canoe available for use! There is no AC at this property, but it was not needed with the windows open to catch the lake breezes. Unbelievably peaceful and beautiful! We can’t wait to come back!

We throughly enjoyed our stay here. Cottage had everything we needed. It was lovely to spend time and some meals on the deck overlooking the water. Sandy beach was great for relaxing and walking the whole bay. Bottom line - we’d gladly stay here again. Ray & Diana

Another amazing week!
Such a great week at Bunka! Four bedrooms - comfy beds - great open kitchen area. The deck and beach area are amazing - large deck with nice table and relaxing chairs, a big Sandy beach. The water was pretty warm too! Loved using the paddle boards. Overall a great stay.

We returned this year after having a wonderful time last year. The place is great, location is great and we wouldn’t change a thing. John is a very considerate host and should be very proud of his property. We’re just glad he’s willing to share it.

Precious Memories on the Lake Michigans “Emerald Isle!
This place was exactly what we needed! A place to unplug and unwind from the daily demands of being a business owner. Simple and perfect. The back yard was absolutely gorgeous to say the least! We couldn’t have had a better beach view. The home was very nice and clean. We had everything we needed to make our week stay absolutely perfect! Just minutes away from the beautiful town of St. James where the people are very friendly. We felt like part of the community. We definitely left a part of our heart on Beaver Island! We’re already planning our next escape from the mainland! We’ll be back!🥰☘️🛳️🛩️

Blast from the Past
Visiting Beaver Island is like stepping back into a kinder, gentler time! We loved everything about our stay. It was peaceful and we spent days biking (we brought our own, but there are rentals in town) around the island roads and trails. This house couldn’t have been more perfect for what we wanted: relaxed, comfortable with awesome sunrise view and beach. John the host is extremely responsive, friendly and accommodating. It may have been a once-in-a-lifetime chance, but I finally knocked seeing the Northern Lights off my bucket list… right from the back porch!

Cozy, clean, incredible!
We stayed at the cabin with our 9 year old son for 4 days. We all absolutely loved it! It was very clean, cozy, and had everything we needed to include a smart TV, charcoal grill, and great kitchen amenities. The cottage was, in our opinion, on the best stretch of beach on the island. The host responded to our questions very well and made the check in and check out process a breeze. Will stay here again!

Anyone looking for a beautiful spot on the shore of lake michigan please check this one out! Lovely home only steps away from the Lake. Beds were comphy, lots of games to play, house was clean, nice big screen tv for those rainy days, and where we were most was on the beautiful deck soaking up the sun or watching the stars. Owner was very fast to get back to you if needed. I would highly recommend this home!

A Terrific Week!
My family loved staying at this wonderful house - it is on a beautiful stretch of beach with a sandy bottom under the water that was shallow enough for the kids to really enjoy. The house had plenty of space and bedrooms for us all, lots of tables for eating and playing games and a well equipped kitchen. Owner was incredibly responsive. Would return again!

Calm and Peaceful Getaway
Our stay was lovely! Waking up and walking out with a cup of coffee just steps away from amazing Lake Michigan took our breath away each day. Sand Bay is beautiful and we loved being able to walk our puppy on the sand and wade out into the crystal clear water. The home has everything you need and more. We wanted a peaceful and quiet place to getaway from the hustle and this stay was just what we needed!

Everything we hoped it would be, and more.
Located on the nicest section of Sand Bay, the beach is phenomenal. We were in the water every day. The cabin is old school in a very positive way and the kitchen is modern and very functional. Beds were comfortable and the breeze coming off the lake led to good sleeping conditions. The deck and outdoor furnishings were a plus, we ate almost all our meals in the fresh air. We're looking forward to returning next summer. Note: The VRBO property description indicates that you'll need to provide your own towels and sheets but John (the host) has decided to include them at no additional charge. John was a great host and responded to inquiries quickly.

Gorgeous views
We love this place! We came with our four children and Grandma and never felt crowded. The house was cozy and the views were amazing. John was so helpful in preparing to come to the island and answered all our questions quickly. We explored some of the island and other beaches but honestly the beach in front of the house was the best! We spent all day on it; grilled out, ate all our meals outside, had a campfire and stayed up late to stargaze.
