Little slice of paradise
I was unsure what to expect but this property was everything we hoped for. We were looking for a place with a dock for our boat within a short distance to the islands. We enjoyed fishing throughout the area as well as day trips to Tahquamenon falls, Soo Locks and Drummond Island. The property was clean and furnished with everything we needed. Will definitely rent this home again. Also important to share is the owner was very helpful and responsive to all my questions. :)

Wonderful home and location
We spent a month here, relaxing in a comfortable home, so well stocked with everything needed for cooking, laundry, bedding and all. The deck and property are terrific for enjoying the area. The house is close to wildlife preserves and to town shops and restaurants. A great place to vacation!

2 week family vacation
We enjoyed an excellent stay at the house. Everything was great. The outdoor fire pit, grill, and comfortable, nicely furnished home. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch in the mornings drinking coffee. Also, the extra fridge/freezer in the laundry room came in handy for storing extra beverages. The dock worked well for our boat. Plenty of plates, bowls, coffee cups and some great steak knives. Again, really enjoyed ourselves and helped make a great summer vacation in our favorite area with lots of good memories!

A little slice of heaven.
Beautiful cottage in a magical setting with the most gorgeous pots of flowers everywhere. Truly felt spoiled while staying there. Comfy furniture & beds. Everything you need to make meals & then gather around the long table to laugh & share stories. Sunrise on the deck with your coffee was the perfect start of everyday. Can't wait to go back again.

Beauty and Comfort
A comfortable home, with all the amenities, well-provided with linens and cooking needs on a beautiful wooded lot on a protected cove. Loved the easy access to Nature Preserves and the many birds visiting the property!

About the host

Hosted by Steven Ackley

Host profile image
Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio. Denison University Graduate. I began coming to the Upper Peninsula with my grandfather (an exceptional fisherman) in the 50's as a child, and have spent time almost every summer since in the Les Cheneaux . Now, my wife and three teenage kids like to sneak up whenever we have the chance. All seasons up here amaze me.

Why they chose this property

This place is close to heaven, we believe. It is very quiet, yet we do have roughly a dozen neighborhood places on our point, mostly seasonal. You have a sense of community, however, neighbors are. It gives you remote relaxation, but is only about a 5 minute drive into the little town of Hessel if you need something from the grocery store. There is wonderful sailing, boating, kayaking, swimming, fishing, sunning or reading on the deck.

What makes this property unique

Fabulous views, on the water, quiet bay in Lake Huron, yet on the lee of the Point Brulee Peninsula, so mostly quiet , calm water, perfect for water activities or just sitting on the dock and reading, bird watching or sunning. Easy access by car. Deep water boating, docking and navigating into Lake Huron and the Les Cheneaux Islands. Feels like an island.
