When booking this cabin I hadn't expected our host to be so dedicated to ensuring the quality of our stay. At every turn, Seamus was excited to get us settled in, giving incredible recommendations for our days out exploring alone to guided tours accompanied by stories of island history. The cabin itself was the perfect size for intimate late night conversations and for spreading out and getting some much needed alone time. If you're looking to get away from the world for a while and tune into nature, with a side of amazing conversations, you could not find a better place or better host! Just one instance of how well taken care of my friends and I were, we had some issues with our return trip on the ferry, my car had to go back to the mainland a day early, and he offered to act as our chauffeur for the remainder of our stay! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. Pack a book and enjoy the beautiful surroundings!

This property rental is a scam!…and is not the first time you have heard this..shame on you for continuing this listing..we had failed and late communication that didn’t explain accessibility in time to switch our car rental to a truck..which is needed to safely approach this place..then after booking a 2 story cabin that “sleeps 7” we were given one small bedroom with no private bathroom in the cabin as the “host “ stayed upstairs..unacceptable!!…we were there 10 minutes, then bottomed out our rental car trying to leave and rain was on the way, which would have left us stranded there..an absolute rip off and we are demanding a full refund as we have never stayed there..then had to return to town and paid double the price for last minute privacy that we thought we were getting from your listing..we will be pursuing this matter in small claims court if not resolved

Great property. Great host. Even made us coffee and offered to make breakfast. He was very welcoming. He made us feel like family.

Had an enjoyable couple days staying at host Seamus’s house in the woods. It was a very quiet peaceful location toward the southern end of the island, surrounded by nature. Seamus made us a yummy all organic breakfast one morning. He is a wealth of knowledge about the island and all things natural. We did break the silence of the island bombing around the 2-track roads in a UTV we rented for 4 hours. Was a great weekend.

This was our first time to the island and as such, we decided to fly in. What an incredible way to see the natural beauty of Beaver Island! Once on the island we were met by a soft spoken, intelligent and oh so knowledgeable host, Seamus. Seamus quickly met our every request, we stocked up on supplies at the local grocery store and we were smoothly transported to our charming island accommodations. This cabin in the woods is a delightfully gorgeous summer cabin and sits comfortably amongst thick Northern Michigan vegetation and allows for a secluded private getaway. As this is a shared space, Seamus is available in any capacity guests request. Our requests to see great beaches, the mother birch and the entirety of the island by truck were appeased. Would definitely not have seen as much of this island without such a gracious guide. Should also mention that coffee, tea or hot cocoa, toiletries, linens and bug spray were provided as needed. Perfect stay for people who are new to the island as Seamus has thought of everything. Thank you Seamus! Absolutely loved our stay.

2 nights enjoying the stars and the BIMF!

An awesome experience! Seamus really took the time to make us feel welcome, and his knowledge of the unique history of the island was the highlight of our trip. Seamus took us down backroads, and gave us a view of the island that we would have not have explored without his guidance. A great trip!

My friends and I expected to go and have a nice time! We went into the house and upstairs where we was supposed to sleep, it was just 3 air mattresses on the floor outside his room! He planned on staying in the house with us. 3 single woman! There was a no electronic rule... no signal on our phones for over 3 miles, no internet. He had an alter in the room with horns on it. And when we said we didn't feel comfortable staying alone with a man we don't know I got less than half what I paid back. Then had to pay even more for a hotel!! It is ridiculous! In no way is that ok... and we are not the first women he has done this too! We were the 2nd group of people just this season! I will never go back to Beaver island because of everything! I would have never paid the money for that place if I would have know everything! Don't do it!!! Go somewhere else!!!!
