Tranquil Retreat or Romantic Getaway in Beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

A beautiful log home apartment in the woods. A tranquil, peaceful and private getaway in a safe area. Also handicap accessibility. Two blocks from Lake Michigan with spectacular views of the Mackinac Bridge. Near Sand Bay, a sandy beach for swimming and kayaking. Many tourist attractions: Mackinac Island, Tahquamenon Falls, Sault Locks, forts and museums.
I have lived in Saint Ignace all my life - my roots here go back to 1885. My family are some of the first settlers in this quaint city. I live on site. My home is divided with private entrance. Enjoy my beautiful island flower garden with pond and lighthouse and the train garden. Wildlife including deer and even a moose have stopped by for a visit. Truly a tranquil romantic paradise!

For those with allergies - rest assured that there has never been a pet inside the log home apartment.
Electric heat, air conditioning and air filtering system. There are no fragrances.
Well water and Culligan's reverse osmosis water filtering system.
Free and sensitive detergents.

Great Getaway
Loved the little log home away from home. It was the perfect location and Mary Lynn was just wonderful. It was so beautiful, so peaceful and so quiet. Tucked away in a beautiful area. Would highly recommend staying here. If we are back this way and need a place to stay this will be number one on our list.

Anniversary Trip 💕
Mary Lynn is by far the best host I have ever booked with! Great communication and truly thoughtful, she made sure we had everything we needed for our weekend getaway to Mackinaw Island. The homemade banana bread and access to her golf cart were added bonuses! We highly recommend this beautiful log cabin!

Perfect weekend getaway
This was such a beautiful property. The views of the woods and garden create the perfect backdrop for the cozy log home. Everything was neat and clean and Mary Lynn made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It was the perfect place to come home to after exploring the U.P. each day.

Rest in middle of our road trip
This apartment was ideal for us. All amenities were outstanding. Quiet location with a lakeshore walk just a block away. The hostess lived in the town all her life and gave great tips on places to eat and visit. Beautiful gardens. Washer/dryer. We are pleased to rate all aspects 5 stars.

Very Accommodating!
The property was beautiful! The landscaping was impressive and lovely. The private apartment attached to the home was very clean and inviting. The host had fresh flowers from her property waiting, local fudge, and fresh bread. She was kind, informative, and helpful. We had a wonderful and relaxing experience!!

Cute slice of paradise!
We were immediately greeted by the property owner who made us feel very special and cared for. She offered her golf cart for a beautiful ride along the Lake Michigan shore. There were special treats and flowers waiting for us when we went in. Very inviting and well cared for property. Loved our visit and hope to come back again.

GREAT LAKES INTRODUCTION
This property was the greatest. The home was clean, roomy, all the necessities of home were supplied. The host was phenomenon, she provided us with activites in the area, and tasty places to eat. Not to mention the banana bread upon arrival. She even had a golf cart for us to use to site see along Lake Michigan which is at her back door. Absolutely the best place I have ever stayed. Great for 2 people! She even had a golf cart for our use

A Retreat in Paradise!
Mary Lynn is an A* host! She is warm and welcoming. I came as a stranger and left as a friend. Her cozy, log cabin is minutes away from the Mackinaw bridge and downtown St Ignace, yet you feel like you are in your own personal paradise. Her property is encircled by trees and punctuated with her gorgeous gardens. It was the perfect creative backdrop for my personal writing retreat and I have no doubt I will be back!
