About this property

2+ Plus Bedrooms, Full Downstairs Laundry And Bathroom. Delightful Setting.
THE JOURNEY: First, arrive on the island with a memorable ferry trip. You will drive right on, and off the ferry, and then be on your way to your lake home!

THE HOME: This newer cedar home features sleeping for 8 comfortably with a 2+ plus bedroom design. Master bedroom downstairs is equipped with a queen bed and closet. The upstairs "plus" bedroom is a full-home loft with 6 queen beds and a futon. Fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and living area together make up the wide open downstairs design with large windows/glass doors overlooking the water. The large wrap-around porch overlooking the water is great for evening gatherings and food on the grill. One full bathroom is nicely located for use by all. Cable television and internet service are provided for your indoor enjoyment. Many board games are provided for your added enjoyment in the evenings or when the outdoor weather is bad.

THE WATER: Just outside the front door, a few steps through the sand, and you are on the beach. Lawn chairs, fire pit, and plenty of room for building sand castles for all. As you relax and enjoy the water and sand, an occasional ship or freighter will pass by so don't forget to bring your camera. These vessels can be from anywhere around the world and are amazing to gaze at. The home does have a dock if you choose to bring a boat or rent the pontoon available at the cabin. Excellent fishing most all of the year will be all around you. Salmon, Walleye, Perch, Small mouth Bass, and Northern Pike are just some of the many fish species that that are caught on a regular basis. Don't forget your fishing license. If you plan to stray into Canadian water, you will need to follow all Canadian license and fishing rules as well. (please clean fish outdoors only and properly dispose of the remains).

THE WOODS: The wooded lot consists of approximately 11 acres that are beautiful to enjoy for a walk or to explore the terrain. Watch out, you may scare up the many deer, turkeys, and other wildlife that dwell on the Island.

Freighter Heaven

We loved our fall getaway at this adorable cabin. The fall colors were gorgeous and the weather couldn't have been better! Sunny and cool temperatures so we could explore the area comfortably as a family with our 2 dogs. We especially loved seeing the freighters lumber past the cabin- our favorite times were lounging on the huge porch early in the morning and late at night when the lights from the freighters drifted past. We hope to return for a summer trip! The cabin had EVERYTHING! It was comfortable and cozy- a true gem!

Sugar Island 2023

Had a wonderful vacation on Sugar Island. Cabin was just as described. Property Manager responded quickly to my questions. Had a great time fishing. Dogs loved playing in the yard and water. Tons of freighters passed by. Definitely will recommend the place to everyone.

Perfect Spot, Perfect Island, Perfect Cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and came home well rested and relaxed. The cabin is beautiful and the views are gorgeous. We say multiple frieghters going north throughout our stay. We cooked outside every night except the first when we ordered pizza from the bar on the island (which was very good as well). We went to the community market on Saturday morning and bought an amazing blueberry pie from Farendy Farms. This is also who I ordered wood from, so we could have fires in the firepit every night. The mosquitoes were non-existent. We were there in mid-September. We saw the ship museum in Sault Ste. Marie and the Soo Locks on another day. The cabin and beds were extremely comfortable and we slept very well for our entire stay. We will definitely be back! Also, everyone is extremely friendly on the island. Everyone waves at you, it's like living in Mayberry in the 21st century. Truly amazing!

Why they chose this property

First of all, this large 11 acre wooded lot provides a peaceful and secluded setting. Whether you are just a couple wanting a peaceful week away, or a family with children wanting to make a little noise on the beach, you will find this location to provide a nice private setting to enjoy. One of the very unique attractions are the occasional freighters and ships from around the world that pass directly in front of the home. There are few places where this experience can be enjoyed, and this is one. Experiencing the ferry ride, staying on an island, enjoying the company of family, fishing, swimming, evenings around the campfire, and much much more make this location one of the most unique you will ever find.
