Photos and Description of the Cross Village vacation cabin rental
Cabin, 3 Bedrooms + Sunroom, 1.5 Baths, (Sleeps 2-8)

Lakefront hand crafted cabin on the shores of Lake Michigan, a peaceful retreat built by artist/teachers in a natural setting, 3/4 mile south of Cross Village, north of Harbor Springs on the 'Tunnel of Trees' Lakeshore Drive, on a short winding drive off the main road.

Enjoy a relaxing, carefree, back-to-nature vacation on the big lake, lakeside dining, bright starlit nights, wake to the soothing sound of waves lapping on the shore. Ideal for naturalists, cyclists, families, couples, or you and a few friends.

Enjoy summer play on the lake. Unwind and relax where cellphones barely work and sunsets are the daily attraction. Beachwalk several miles of open beach in either direction. Ideal for catching up on reading, writing, sunrise yoga, cycling back roads. Walk, bike or canoe to the village, bring your own windsurfer, kayak or small sailboat (rentals nearby). Sandy public beaches with small boat launch in Cross Village and Sturgeon Bay.

Complete kitchen for cooking, or dine out or carry-out in Cross Village at famous Legs Inn (plus music and dancing on weekends), or nearby, The Fish, Levering Cafe, the Tearoom and Crepe Shack in Good Hart. Cross Village also is home to the Cross Village General Store and a friendly little post office, Three Pines Studio and art gallery, who offer workshops just right for a week long vacation.

Explore Wilderness State Park a short drive up the shore. Nearby day excursions by ferry to Mackinac Island and Beaver Island. Enjoy a lighthouse tour by boat. Golf, tennis, performing arts, shopping, dining, in Harbor Springs, Petoskey, Cheboygan, and Mackinaw City.

Quote from a visitor: 'What I love about your vacation home is the location in the Tunnel of Trees, no steps down to the beach (wonderful for my mother and grandchildren), and the lovely, artistic and beautiful job you have done on the place...'

Why D R McPharlin chose Cross Village

This land has been in our family for multiple generations. The rental property is a cabin that was built on a portion of the original parcel. It is owned by 'the kids' now, all of whom grew up summering on the lake. Thirty acres above the waterfront property were donated to the Little Traverse Conservancy. Over three acres are retained as part of the waterfront home, with a conservation easement. We have only recently opened the cabin for paid guests, during weeks when the family is not using it. We are pleased to be able to share our piece of heaven with others.

What makes this cabin unique

Just being down here on the big lake is a peaceful and refreshing experience. After a few days, you can feel yourself unwind and feel at home. Being close to the lake, the weather and wildlife is good for the soul. The sun doesn't always shine. Sometimes there are storms. They are wild and beautiful. Being close to the variety of weather is all part of the experience. The original artwork was created by family and friends.

Fabulous Fall Getaway

  • Submitted: Oct 27, 2012

The cabin and area was exactly as described. It was beautiful, large yet cozy with everything you could need to stay for a wonderful vacation. The Tunnel of Trees, Cross Village and the surrounding area is so pretty and charming,we just loved it. The property was clean, very well kept and we could easily and happily just moved right in and stayed :-)
We visited area art shops, had a great, great meal and time at Legs Inn. The Polish food and excellent staff in addition to the beauty of the setting, made it a truly enjoyable afternoon. Can't wait to return! We did lots of wine tasting at nearby wineries while enjoying the beautiful sunny fall day, went to pumpkin patches, went to the Headlands which is amazing dark sky park, took a drive across the Mighty Mac and enjoyed the beauty of the pristine lands and the sparkling lights of the bridge. Just a fantastic trip all the way around! Thank you so much for sharing your home!

Comfortable cabin on Lake Michigan. Great fireplace to relax by as the fall weather set in. Beach to take walks on or many great hiking areas near. Great place to get away from the hectic pace of life.

Sitting here at work... missing Agamiing Minwendam ..... I can not begin to describe how relaxing and peaceful this place is. This is not your typical modern rental, with the sterile feel. This is Grandma and Gramdpa's cottage... Cable / internet / cell phone coverage.. you can have them.. Gorgeous sunsets, Frogs, Campfires, Foxes, Snakes, Bats, Deer, wild turkey, Wine on the deck while watching the kids on the beach.... Boss I'm taking another vacation... hope the current renters don't mind a drop in guest....

Owner's Response: He's only kidding, but such a pleasure to know this family loves it as much as we do! Very kind words from a family that comes every year and takes such great care of the place! It is a pleasure to share it with them.

Hi Diane, We are already home from our week at your cottage. We had a great time and the weather was perfect, sunny and comfortable every day, with a storm one night. We'd like the same week next summer--already looking forward to next year!
