Gorgeous Rustic Northern Michigan Island Getaway

Get Away to an unspoiled natural environment where several eagle sitings daily are common. A place that has been virtually untouched and unspoiled, that is Beaver Island. Our cabin (Eagle's Rest) is situated 100 feet from Lake Michigan on a 10 acre Parcel. The views of Lake Michigan and High Island are spectacular!

Getting to Beaver Island: The first stop is Charlevoix, MI, a Lake Michigan harbor city located approx 250 miles north of Detroit. You can also fly into Pelston or Traverse City airports and connect to Beaver Island Ferry (https://www.bibco.com/) or Island Airways in Charlevoix (islandairways.com). From Charlevoix take a quick 20 minute flight or the 2 hour leisurely ferry ride on the Emerald Isle. Either way, it's an amazing adventure!

The link below lists all available transportation services getting to the island as well as once on the island

https://www.beaverisland.org/transportation/

***PLEASE NOTE: If you are planning to bring your car over, you typically have to book in advance, we advise you call to make sure the ferry has availability before reserving to stay at our cabin***

When you arrive on the island you will find a place that will take you back in time. Slow, patient, friendly and Beautiful! You might want to stop at the Shamrock for a beverage after the ferry ride or take the scenic 20 minute drive straight out to Eagle's Rest. Distance is measured by time on the Island, most of the roads have not been paved...it's just another way to make you slow down!


When you reach Eagle's Rest the drive in is through a wooded pathway into a vast open area with scattered trees along the perimeter. Eagle's Rest was first built in 2004 with the original cabin. It has since been added on to with a larger additional cabin with a lovely connector. It is very charming, with spectacular views of Lake Michigan and High Island. It has a great front porch, screened in rear porch and large rear decks overlooking the lake. All furnishings are new or local antiques. Eagle's Rest has an outdoor (and indoor shower) shower with cold and hot running water. It is the renter's responsibility to bring their own sheets and towels. Eagle's Rest has a charming decor with an open layout which includes 33 large Anderson windows, many are floor to ceiling overlooking Lake Michigan. There are 2 large lofts with single beds and a bedroom with a king sized bed. The main floor has a comfortable pull out couch. It's perfect for a family of 2-7.

You may enjoy a good book overlooking Lake Michigan, take a swim in the clear lake water, explore the island and over 100 miles of roads and trails, kayak using the 2 kayaks provided, go for a bike ride using the 2 bikes provided, fish on one of the 5 inland lakes, roast marshmallows in the fire pit on the beach, admire the vast array of stars, discover some of the other islands in the Archipelego, visit the spa for a massage, play nine at the Beaver golf course, lounge on the patio, cocktails at Nina's, Donnegal Bay to enjoy the sunset, visit the CMU Biological center, or the 2 lighthouses on the island, Little Sand Bay, Iron Ore Bay or simply do Nothing! This is a vacation you will never forget and leave feeling truly rested.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The pictures do not do the view justice! The lake Michigan shoreline is beyond gorgeous and we were visited by eagles and loons. I am convinced this is the best location on the island as it is close enough to town when you need supplies but definitely feels off the beaten path. The king bed was very comfortable and there are beautiful views from every room of the house. My teenagers loved the loft sleeping spaces as well. I also highly recommend Happy Paddle for kayak rental. Mark brought the boats right to the cabin and we were able to put in on our own shore. I was glad we brought water shoes as the beach is lovely but rocky. We enjoyed the large fire pit as well. Visiting the toy museum and the Beaver Head Light House were highlights. We are so glad we decided to explore Beaver Island and will definitely be back!

Very nice and away from everyone. I can see there are items in progress (shower) with upgrades as in a new TV. It was a little dirty but I do not blame the owner . I can imagine it is hard to find help on the island plus it is rustic. Wonderful views of the water and plenty of space. Some privacy on the large windows in bathroom would be nice as more than once people were walking by looking into the house. This is the place if you want to get away from everything and enjoy peace and quiet.

Pretty rough. Glad it was just the two of us. Would not have wanted our kids trapped in the lofts. Good luck figuring out the electric system. Switches that go to nothing. No over head lights.

Beautiful view with privacy but not as clean as it should be considering price and fees. Coffee pot was dirty, bath mat wet and smelt bad.

We loved staying at Eagle’s Rest! The view is spectacular, especially for sunsets! You can see Lake Michigan and High Island from inside the cabin, and you get an even better view from the deck and fire ring. We really liked the cabin too, even with the unfinished bits, it was so cozy and charming. Everything was really clean, although we recommend bringing your own blankets in addition to sheets and towels. Be prepared for a ton of bugs — you will need bug spray, hats, and long socks to enjoy an evening fire. I wish the loft above the king bed had a railing —while it would be hard to fall off the ends of the beds, it seems like this would be a necessary safety feature to have in place. We also wished that the window screens weren’t so ripped — if it would have been warmer, we would have definitely appreciated opening the windows to get the lake breeze. With the bugs and the ripped screens, almost all of the windows facing the lake are not able to be opened. We would stay here again in a heartbeat, though! It was so peaceful listening to the waves and birds and seeing the rocky shore and stars right from the cabin. 10/10 if you’re looking for natural beauty and rustic cabin charm!

Overall, great trip. The island is wonderful, the location was good, and we really appreciated it being a dog friendly property. That said, my expectations were higher for cleanliness. Main points: mattresses are stained/need vacuuming and do not have covers. I am very glad we brought blankets. The blankets that are in the house are dirty. There is mess in every drawer/shelf. It is clearly a family vacation home, but it is difficult to get comfortable when there’s no place to put your stuff away. As the pictures show, part of the bathroom is unfinished. That was understood, but the inside of the unfinished bathtub has gotten dirty/moldy and is no longer covered like it is in the picture. The shower needs a very good cleaning, the floor had quite a bit of mildew. There was a persistent smell in the kitchen. Possibly from the disposal or from the cabinet under the sink. We had to find an extension cord in a drawer somewhere to run the disposal (we did not put any food down there). There were cobwebs and spiders in every corner. I suspect that the owners live downstate and rely on someone to clean the place. But it is not being cleaned very well, despite a high rental price and a decent cleaning fee. Other notes: beach is beautiful, but rocky. Chairs by fire pit are broken/uncomfortable, need replacing. Loft sleeping spaces are open to living room and bedroom and accessible by ladders. Kitchen counter/sink needs repair, gap lets water leak into cabinet below.

If it's peace and quiet with beautiful views, this is the place for you! Great fire pit (although some type of lighter or matches would have been nice, thankfully local hardware store had plenty) and deck to relax. If you're looking for large space for many to sleep...keep looking. The main bedroom has a king bed, very comfy. The two usable lofts (best one in main bedroom) are not ideal for grown adults. Dusty with low ceiling and slanted walls. Ladder to get up and down is straight up and down, zero slant. The saggy short sofa is a hide-a-bed, we didn't use. Bring extension cords if you're a CPAP user. We were inundated with fruit flies from 4 nicely ripe tomatoes on window sill. Thankfully he had Apple cider vinegar we could use to trap them. The smoke detectors were in a cupboard. Electrical wires sticking out EVERYWHERE. Mind you we booked this place in May and arrived early September. Plenty of time in my estimation to complete this important task. The bathroom STILL is not finished. Outlets not working. Just want to make those aware so you know what you're getting.

The best getaway spot. Basically have your own little bay. It’s so peaceful here. A few areas where cleaning could be improved but not bad. The house is in the middle of being updated but this for the most part didn’t hurt our stay at all. Such a cool place to be

Beautiful cabin. Some stuff unfinished, like the bathtub. But did not effect enjoyment of trip at all. Beautiful cabin and property. Remember to bring your own sheets! Loved biking the island!

This cabin is a treasure on Beaver Island - nestled in the woods, looking northwest over the beach and water to High Island, with great biking, walking, and kayaking right from the property. You can watch the sunset from the cabin or walk down the beach to watch from a nearby point. The beds are comfortable, with plenty of options between two lofts and a large king bed. The kitchen is well-equipped, with plenty of pans, utensils, and storage in the large french-door fridge and freezer drawer. That said, the cabin is definitely a labor of love and a work in progress. The bathroom is unfinished, as pictures show, but usable. Doors and windows are missing trim and quite drafty when a fall wind blows from the north/northwest. The electric baseboard heaters help but can't deal with a serious cold -- this is likely a three season cabin. An exposed electrical outlet in the loft shocked my curious four-year-old (a good life lesson to learn, with no harm done). Some wiring is unfinished - switches for lights not yet installed. Honestly, the cabin made me wish I had my tools so I could make some quick fixes. All in all, I highly recommend the cabin to any family with children or small group of adults.

Eagle's Rest was a lovely remote haven for our family to spend time together. There was some mix-up when we arrived, but the manager handled this very quickly and all was resolved. We loved walking on the rocky beach, enjoying looking for unusual rocks and skipping stones, watching the lovely sunset, reveling in the quietness and seclusion. We also loved exploring the island, lighthouses and points of interest. There were beautiful walks to be enjoyed in the woods and on the road.

The property is very beautiful and secluded. We had our own private beach. We saw bald eagles and swans and various other wildlife. We enjoyed sitting out on the back deck watching and listening to the waves. It was a perfect getaway. We hope to return next year.

See the lovely armoire in the the bedroom? It's locked. Every basket, bin, shelf, and cubby is full of owner's belongings. There are three pegs close together in the bedroom for your use. We stowed our stuff on the tub/plywood and so it wouldn't get wet I tried to shower outdoors. The sloping cobblestone platform was a slippery challlenge. I think there was meant to be a small flat wooden pallet or boardwalk to stand on over the drainage rocks? Enjoyed some nice rides on the bike. One of the picturesque green Adirondack chairs was broken.

Cabin was well cleaned and ready for our arrival, good thing we brought our own garbage bags as none were provided not even a recycle bag which is needed for trash disposal on island. Views were breathtaking and overall everything was great I would suggest that some railings get put up where beds are up top and also on the front porch quite a drop off with no railings. Would definitely have given 5 stars if everything was finished but would definitely come back for another stay as it is charming and rustic just be prepared to entertain yourself as no cable there is a DVD player and VCR with a few movies there too chose from and we had no phone service but that's what made the entire trip that much more memorable.

We had a wonderful experience. The setting, right on Lake Michigan, is gorgeous. We had a great time.

Everything was what I expected, I just hope that the cabin gets the finishing touches soon.

If you are looking for peace, serenity and natural beauty, this is your place. The property is perfectly located, and the home a beautiful work in progress. The Island is like stepping back in time and yet has every modern convenience that we needed. Waking to the sound of the waves, birds singing and a quiet walk down the road through the woods was what we looked forward to every morning. Afternoon drives revealed beaches, dunes, lots of deer and even a wolf. The owner has put much thought into designing the home, including a fun outdoor shower with warm water. We will definitely be returning if we can. Thanks Gerry!

We had a fun week on Beaver Island. It was our first time there. We spent the weeks on beaches, in the woods, and around the campfire in the evening. Pros and cons of this property: Pros: +Sunsets over High Island +Almost zero noise, other than an occasional airplane going to the island airport. Almost zero traffic down this dead end. +Kayaks and bikes included (2 each) +That Up North rustic feel +Wildlife. Spotted 5 eagles, including a young/mature pair. Also saw many deer, a huge fish (3’) preying the shallows, bats, etc. +Clean, clear water +Allowed is to check in early. +Responsive. Answered all questions quickly. Cons -Not clean. Mouse poop everywhere when we showed up. A dead mouse in a mouse trap. Spider webs plentiful. Lots of ants inside. We know we are up north in the woods, but the owner said that he had it professionally cleaned before we came. The cleaning needs to take place directly before renters come. Also, an exterminator is needed. -There are actually three lofts. One has no ladder, one has no rail, and the third has a ladder and a rail, but the ladder was very tall and not secured to the loft, so we used our own bungees to strap it in place. -Only one inside garbage bag provided (plus one big bag for disposal at the dump station), almost zero hand or dish soap, and 1.5 rolls of TP for a week’s stay. Overall, can’t beat the location, solitude, or the rustic feel. Needs work on cleanliness.

8/10

Firstly Beaver Island is exactly what you get when you seek out rawness, solitude, wild and miraculous weather Gerry the owner of the cabin was very attentive to all and many of my questions His place is on a superb spot, which allowed for perfect quiet with outstanding beauty. Be prepared to bring most things you can think of as there isn’t much an the island, ie food, king size sheets and pillow cases, extra bath towels, BUG SPRAY (DEET would’ve been absolutely packed if knew how bad the mosquitoes were) We had a few bumps on our stay, Gerry was quite helpful with ironing them out. I would absolutely journey back to this island, come a bit more prepared and relish again in the 6 gorgeous days we spent there!

We had a marvelous time on Beaver Island. The owner Jerry was very responsive, but unfortunately the place was quite dirty especially the mouse droppings in the kitchen and the upstairs bedroom. One of the beds was listed as a queen size and actually is a king which, since you have to bring your own sheets, is a bit of a pain, but not a huge deal. The advertised two bicycles were there but one had a flat and one of the two kayaks is actually for a child so if everyone is tall it could be challenging. These are not huge deal breakers for us- other than the cleanliness -but we recommend that the owner update the listing information to be more accurate and also invest in proper cleaning. Jerry offered a 50% refund of the cleaning fee which frankly should have been 100%., but since we have not received any of the refund - two months later - it seems a moot point. All that said though, this island is pretty special and we appreciated the opportunity to explore it.
