In a forgotten corner of Northern Michigan away from the hoards in some surrounding towns lies Cross Village and Sturgeon Bay. Beautiful, uncrowded beaches and views that are next to none. Sand dunes, beach combing and water activities, the list of things to do is endless. Near the famous towns of Mackinaw City and Harbor Springs ,yet far enough away to enjoy the peace and solitude.

Other Activities: Mackinac Island, Shopping in Harbor Springs

Cute, clean and everything we needed except for food and clothes. The owner called to check on us to see if we needed anything. We enjoyed kayaking, and rock collecting. The beach here is very rocky, but much cleaner than the sandy area a short walk away. The teens enjoyed finding games to play that weren't video games! The adults, teens and dogs all had a great time. Beautiful sunsets! Only 30 minutes from Machinac. We were hoping to try the Legg's Inn in Cross Village, but it was a 2 hour wait. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay again if it weren't for 4 teens and one shower.

Very cute and clean. Beautiful sunsets! Just about everything was provided except for clothes and food. We really enjoyed kayaking, walking the beach, bird watching and collecting rocks. The beach is very rocky, but there is a more sandy beach further down. We preferred to stay at the beach at the home since it was much cleaner. The owner called to check on us to see if we needed anything. There was a book on the table that let us know about everything in the area. About 30 minutes from Mackinac. We were really hoping to try Legg's Inn, but it was about a 2 hour wait. The adults, teens, and dogs all had a great time! We would stay again, but one shower with 4 teens was the only downfall.

Thanks Bob and family for renting your Lake Michigan house to us a couple of weeks ago! We really enjoyed our stay, and it was very easy to just RELAX! The accomodations were as expected and we had everything we needed. The water was nice, the view was beautiful, and we have several evenings of gorgeous sunsets. The deck was a great place to eat our dinner and watch the sunset. Thanks again! (and our dogs had a BLAST!)
