Beautiful waterfront property
The star gazer cabin was a beautiful waterfront property! We came to Drummond to Jeep and this cabin was close to trailheads. Home was cozy with everything we needed.

Wonderful time at Star Gazer
We had a very relaxing time. The view of the water was amazing. We loved hearing the waves lapping the shoreline. The house was as advertised and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend if you are looking for something remote and quiet.

Stargazer cottage
Very beautiful views on a quiet peaceful dead end road! It’s about 25 minutes from the town area. The house was everything we hoped for! We enjoyed our family vacation at this location! Things we enjoyed was bike rides and bon fires at the cottage, we did the indoor putt putt with the kids at The Rock, off-roading to fossil ledges, the public beach close by, boating and fishing, seeing a bear and enjoying the small shops and restaurants!

Clean and great view
Clean property. Nice views of the lake. Accurate description. Secluded quiet location. Only complaint and complaint is a too strong of a word is the water has a lot of iron in it, a lot. But that would not stop us from staying here the next time we are on the island.

Great UTV getaway!
We came to experience the island on our UTV. Great timing between Jeepers weekend and Memorial day. Island was relatively quiet (great for us) and so was the lakeshore. Great spot to connect with the end of the UTV trail or sit on the deck and take in Lake Huron. House was everything we hoped for, clean quiet and quaint. South side of island is a little breezy compared to the rest. Thank you for great accommodations.

Quiet and relaxing
Property is about 20 minutes away from amenities and the pictures are outdated, but no issues other than that. Not far from a trail staging area and lake levels are high, so water was close to the fire pit. Will stay again.

Sisters’ Unplugged Weekend
We loved the location close to the trails. The view of the lake from the house was beautiful. We enjoyed watching and listening to the waves crashing in. The limited cell service at the house was a plus for us, we did take advantage of the WIFI for texting. The house shows some age on the decks, however the interior appears to have been recently updated. We would definitely rent again and recommend to family and friends.

Shooting stars are amazing!
Clean and comfortable cabin! Great internet and awesome view! We really enjoyed our stay. There was both a nice fire place inside and firepit out by the lake. We saw 2 Bucks and a mama bear and cub crossing the road. The neighbor showed us a video of a Moose in the woods just 2 doors down that happened while we were there. Totally a fantastic experience. The serenity of the water and woods are relaxing and unforgettable. Awesome huge deck to hang out on! Hope we can come back again soon!

Jeep event getaway
This was a nice property to relax on the water! Aside from my husband driving thirty mins each way to his Jeep event we enjoyed this place. It did however not get cleaned very well from the last people as we found random stuff under tables and there was dog hair all over the carpets. Otherwise it was a great home! Would come back here again!

Beautiful waterside retreat
This property is right on the water! You can look out the back sliding glass doors and see a beautiful view of the lake. You are also far enough away from any neighbors to have peace and tranquility, but are still just a 15 minute drive to the center of the island where all the business are located. Wonderful home on a beautiful island! There is not much cell service on the island, so be prepared for that.

Relaxing getaway!
Beautiful location and cozy home! We enjoyed every moment. It was off season so not a lot of other people in the area. The home was very clean and comfortable. The new recliner was a personal favorite right in front of the fireplace. The deck and deck furnishings needed some TLC but were still functional for our purposes. Only single flaw, someone had left a considerable amount of dirt in the washer. Ran it through one cycle and it was good to go. Enjoyed our stay and would return.

Located on secluded part of island with a gorgeous view of the water.
The cottage was a perfect size for us. We spent quite a bit of time on the deck and by the fire pit enjoying the view of the lake. We rode trails nearly each day and had an awesome time. For most of the stay it was just the 2 of us with our labs. 2 friends joined us for 2 of the nights. Down the road was a nice sandy beach we went to several times. We cooked for most of the stay but had a wonderful Mexican dinner at Esther’s and Northwood we had great burgers and Pins Bar & Grill we had appetizers and a pizza where the crust was perfectly done. Made 2 stops at the grocery, a 9pm run for ice cream at the Tee Pee. Our favorite shop on the island was the gourmet shop. Everything was very good. The top items were our blueberry peach pie and the best fudge on the planet. Wonderful 11 night stay at the Star Gazer!

Disappointed in cleanliness.
Animal hair all over the coach so we were covered in it. Bedrooms were not clean or vacuumed and main floor bedroom smelled terrible. We stripped the bed and washed everything then kept the windows open and bought febreeze to spray it all down.

Nice place to stay.
Pros. Check in was easy and quick. The staff was very polite and helpful. The cabin was nice and clean. Beds were comfortable. The night star gazing was spectacular. Lots of wildlife around the cabin, birds, dear, even a saw a bear in the neighborhood. Fireplace was nice to have, used it just about every night. Cons. Deck and deck furniture was in need of TLC, looked old and weathered. Rocker recliner in living room missing a couple of screws in the base, was a rather unstable. One of the dresser drawers came apart when I tried to open it. It was very quite at the cabin until the second to the last night. The neighbors had several people over with atv's and side by sides. They were very noisy into the early morning, revving engines, setting off fireworks etc. The neighbors dogs also kept coming over to the lawn around the cabin we were in. I had to clean up after them twice. We had our dogs and it was causing our dogs to act up. We left a day early because of the noise and dogs constantly coming around that day. Over all impression. It was a nice stay all things considered. Would consider staying there again. I think the neighbor issue was due to being an off road/jeep weekend on the island over memorial weekend, but still unnecessary to be that bad. You can't choose your neighbors.
