Huron Horizons - Magical Sunsets & Four Seasons of Recreational Opportunities!

Magnificent sunsets over Lake Superior's Big Bay.

Our winter guests (cross-country skiers, snowshoers, hikers and those looking to curl up in a cozy cabin) will appreciate our plowed circle drive. We have a no-snowmobile policy at our cabin. We have nothing against snowmobilers, but we think our year-round neighbors might appreciate this.

For the protection of our cleaning personnel and guests during the 2025 rental season, we've built in a one-day cushion between check-ins.

Beautiful, two-bedroom cabin on Lighthouse Road in Big Bay, MI. As you walk in the front door you are greeted with spectacular views of Lake Superior through the living room bow window. Other custom windows bring in light and nature everywhere you turn. A custom-built circular staircase leads you up to the master bedroom with a king-size bed. You'll get spectacular views of Lake Superior from the Master Bedroom which includes a private bath and its own private deck. The downstairs bedroom has a full/full bunk bed. The upstairs loft provides additional views of Lake Superior, a cozy reading area, and with a queen sleeper sofa can double as a third bedroom. The cabin is well suited for four adults and two children.

The cabin has a well-equipped modern kitchen with a gas stove, a dining room table with seating for six, and two full baths. The downstairs bath has a tub/shower with tile surround and the Master Bedroom bath has a shower with tile surround. The huge wrap-around deck includes a screened-in gazebo to keep you away from the bugs, a gas grill, and a food prep area. The cabin also has a newly installed two-zone air conditioning system, with an outdoor compressor, to keep you comfortable during hot/humid weather.

“The Huron Mountains encompass the most wild and rugged territory in Michigan. It is a region of low, yet surprisingly rugged mountains, swamps, lakes, and high plateaus.” (Huron Mountains Summit Post) The Huron Mountain Range runs from the Marquette area north and west through Big Bay and beyond, and along with the sandstone cliffs of Salmon Trout Point provides a distant backdrop for sunsets over the bay. The large lot, 225’ of Lake Superior shoreline, gives you a wide-angle view of the bay to the west. Lake Superior has been telling her serene and rugged story for thousands of years, and each daily chapter (weather permitting) ends with a sunset over Salmon Trout Point. Every sunset you celebrate from Huron Horizons is one that has never been seen before and will never be seen again. Yes, they are that special.

Make sure you set aside some time to explore Marquette during your stay. Marquette "Queen City of the North" is about a 30-minute, beautiful drive from Big Bay, and is perhaps the most picturesque city in Michigan. We're a little biased but we believe that to be true. Marquette has many wonderful shops and restaurants (our favorite being The Vierling which overlooks the Ore Dock and Marquette's beautiful Lower Harbor). While in Marquette we would also highly recommend visiting Presque Isle and allowing enough time to hike and explore this wonderful peninsula. The Marquette area provides tons of outdoor opportunities including year-round world-class mountain bike and cross-country ski trails.

Here are some nearby attractions. Google for directions and more information. A PDF with additional information about the cabin, including links to these area attractions, will be sent after you've confirmed your reservation:

Family Vacation to Huron Mountains
Excellent property and everything you need for a week by the lake. Location is close to many hikes with a sandy beach and lighthouse nearby. Superb views of the lake from all main areas. We had no problem sleeping our three young children and having space for everyone to play and relax.

Big Bay Experience
The location was quiet and remote. Perfect for our family to enjoy the beauty if Supervisor. A personal family favorite was having the windows open and falling asleep to the waves. Would definitely return to stay here again.

Best Stay Ever!
Our stay at Huron Horizons was fantastic! We spent the first week in November there, and we had a wonderful relaxing time. The cabin itself is beautiful, and the kitchen had nice pots and pans, cutlery, dishes, and appliances. They had every kitchen gadget we looked for, which was great. Also, this was the cleanest place we’ve ever rented. The windows have spectacular views of the lake, and the furniture was comfortable. We loved watching the sunsets over the lake from the chairs in front of the bay window in the living room. The fire pit area was very nice, and it’s just a few feet to walk to the shore from the back door of the cabin. We spent the whole week listening to the waves and star gazing at night, and we saw the Northern Lights on our last night there! This is easily the best place that we’ve ever rented.

Heaven
This home is so cozy with amazing views. We were able to see every sunset at the cabin. The home is much nicer than the photos on this website. I love staying at places where I cannot get cell reception. It forces me to get away from my work. This is a sacred space and I can’t wait to be back!

Wonderful Property!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Huron Horizons. If you're looking for a peaceful, private escape with woods and water, this is the place! The property location was perfect and the property itself was spotless and had everything you could possible need for your stay. Just bring your groceries and you're all set! Nancy was great to work with for any questions that we had. Would definitely recommend a stay here!!

Two weeks of Bliss
We have always spent a week in this Beautiful,Perfect house ! But this year we spent two amazing weeks here ! We saw the Northern Lights three times the first week! We thought two weeks was going to be easier to leave but it was harder! We finally met Nancy and she goes above and beyond! The people in the neighborhood were so nice! We saw a loon,lots of deer ,chipmunks and a little red squirrel . We hiked and relaxed and decompressed from our stressful year! Thank you Jim and Ginger and Don and Nancy! You are the best! I so hope we get to return next fall !

Big Bay Beauty
This house was a great place to stay in Big Bay, MI. We had visited the area a few years back and decided to return for some much needed R & R. The rooms and beds are comfortable, the furniture is newer and comfortable, and the bathrooms were immaculate. Their are houses on both sides of this property but the woods keep it very private and the waterfront is gorgeous. There's a nice area outside with a fire pit which we enjoyed. We made a trip to Marquette and spent the day sightseeing and eating at a wonderful restaurant there. If you don't want to travel, there's Thunderbay Inn, about a 5 minute drive. The communication was good about access to the house and knowing there was someone we could call if we had questions or needed something. We'll be back!

Perfect fit!
I was tempted to not write how perfect this home was and keep it a secret, but my better side intervened. I cannot begin to say how perfect this home and all it's amenities are. It truly felt like a home away from home from the moment we walked thru the door. We trekked north to celebrate my wife's birthday and share some quality family time making memories! Every aspect of the home was exactly as promised and our host were attentive to any and all details!
