A Nice Getaway That Is Not Too Far Away

The lighthouse is a custom built building on the end of a peninsula outlooking the bay. The lighthouse is on the same property as the owners home which is about 100 yards away. The lighthouse is itself is such a cool place to stay and is very cozy. Small full bathroom, kitchen, electric heater, plates, utensils, cups, toaster, microwave, mini fridge, electric heater, and dining are on the first level. On the second level there is a perfect size bedroom with a comfy bed, TV, electric heater, and a wrap around balcony. To get to the second level you need to climb up a steep and tight fitting ladder so be sure you are able to physically able to do this before renting. Outside there is a bonfire pit and you can request firewood prior. I guess you can rent kayaks if you ask prior. The sights during sunset, nighttime, and sunrise were spectacular. We didn’t find much to do in Bay City so it was nice to just hangout and play games at the lighthouse. The lighthouse does have some books, DVD movies, chess, and checkers to play. We stayed just one night and had a fun day in Frankenmuth.

Nice place

Enjoyed the visit, minor issues but they were unknown to host so I believe she was unaware before we stayed. I’d recommend staying if you like what you see in the listing pics- it’s exactly as advertised and the view was amazing

Quiet Getaway

The place is cute and clean. I really enjoyed the location and think it would be even better in nice weather. We stayed during a storm and lost power but the owner provided a generator.

Nice location, host responsive, lovely scenery. Property took a couple hours to warm up after our arrival- heat was off and circuit breaker tripped as soon as both heaters were turned on.

The Eagle's nest was a fantastic respite watching the birds, resting, listening to the rain and winds. It is a quaint property where people can appreciate the simple things of life.

Serene Quiet Getaway

My wife and I came to stay for a quiet getaway on the frozen bay, and it turned out to be just perfect for that. We read books and ate pizza from The Log Cabin and watched early 2000s movie dvds on the TV upstairs. The two electric fireplaces inside were running on full the whole time we were out there, but they managed to stave off the cold! We got to watch droves of ice fishers going out in the morning and cruising back in after sunset, from the warmth of this little lighthouse.The owners of the rental are very responsive, and have printed out a little overview of the history of this cute mini cabin alongside their contact info. The driveway back does have a couple "do not enter" signs, but it makes sense since the road is attached to a local campground! Also dont be shocked if a horde of barn cats approach your car on the drive back; apparently they were expecting a toll. XDNote: Accessing the bedroom requires climbing some rather steep, ladder-like stairs. My wife is afraid of heights and had a bit of a tough time with these, but she was able to pull through :)

One night adventure

The surroundings were beautiful! The cabin is beyond cute and cozy and the binoculars made it possible to see a few eagles in the morning. I was really surprised we got to see them because of the wind. It’s the perfect unique get away with a very comfy bed. We look forward to going back during warmer weather.

Idyllic

So fun to drive up in the dark and see this beautiful lighthouse twinkling through the night. The fireplaces keep everything warm and cozy and we got such a fun surprise when the eagles came out in the morning! We loved the 12pm check out time and the chance to be together in such an idyllic location. We will definitely be back!

Great Escape

This location is very cool, surrounded on the Lake on 3 sides. The hosts were very accommodating making sure it was warmed up before we arrived. It's a small place, but it's on of the best VRBO experiences we have had. We would strongly recommend.

Amazing host and property!!! Tracy was easy to get ahold of and mades the place feel like home. My only complaint would be only 3 gallons of hot water however, the place is small (as described) so shouldve expected that. Will definitely be going back in a few years. Can not describe how beautiful it was!!

Lifelong friends escape

I wanted to find a place on the water that was quiet and peaceful for my friend who had lost her mom and needed some peace and quiet! This was the perfect place! Summer would be so nice here to enjoy sitting outside, enjoying a fire and relaxing on the upper level of the lighthouse but with the electric fireplaces on both levels we stayed warm and cozy. We also enjoyed watching the Eagles in the morning too

Lovely night away!

Overall had a wonderful time staying on Tracy’s property. It was such a cute space and the view at sunset was gorgeous. Tracy was so responsive and attentive as well. The only minor thing to note is that the listing mentions a kitchen, but there is no stovetop, just an outside grill and microwave. We were planning on cooking and brought groceries so that was a bit disappointing, but just something to prepare for! Really appreciated the space heaters on both the bottom and top floors!!

Unique stay

We booked this stay for the opportunity to try something new. The location was close enough to town but far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet in the area. Our bonfire while watching the sunset and getting to see the bald eagle and some deer right outside our window was the e highlight of the stay.
