We had a great 5 day stay at The Boat Shop. Our apartment was well appointed with a fantastic view on the long deck. It was close to the grocery store, the brewery and a breakfast/lunch place. We rented a car one day from the boat shop and e-bikes the next day. Fantastic stay, I loved being able to drop in at the grocery and plan a meal or two to cook at the apartment.

Loved our stay, lots of space, comfortable, had everything we needed in this apartment style home. The view was great from the deck and even looking out the sliding glass door toward the water. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was great. Appreciated the fans supplied to circulate air and keep us cool for sleeping. The property and neighborhood was quiet and right. Next door to a market. Easy to walk around and explore, grab a bite to eat, do a little shopping. My favorite part was when asked what we needed to do before departure, Carol said" you're on vacation, not us" and we didn't need to do anything!

It was our first time to Beaver Island. We loved every minute of it! Our stay was awesome. Room was just as described and a great location. Clean, roomy, easy checkin/out. Rented a car and it was well worth it. We hiked trails that were so quiet and beautiful! Highly recommend St. James place when staying on the island!

We enjoyed the Boat Shop location for our long weekend, it was great walking distance to the main street blocks and the Deckhand Quarters was great for us with the full kitchen, wonderful deck views, and overall laid back vibe. We look forward to returning!

Theey rent to people with dogs and no garbage can to put dog waste in. We were told yo dispose of it in are kitchen garbage. Which we were not going to do so everyday sometimes twice a day we had to go to the beach garbage cans and dispose of the waste there. Also only one sharp knives and toaster didn’t work and this wasva full kitchen. And one bedroom didn't have a screen. The beds were very comfortable but the pillows were flat and old. Bath towels were very thin .

The view of the water from our deck was wonderful and peaceful. Low key host. We had all the amenities we needed. The island is beautiful. Found several isolated beaches, walking trails and birding trails. I love the history of the island. People are friendly. Take a car on the ferry with you if you can. You’ll have a lot more access to the island.

Thank you Dan and Carol for a great stay on the island. The weather wasn't very nice and we had to leave a day earlier than we wanted. We will be back

The apartment was clean and very nice. Was one of the only places that would let us bring a pet and I am glad they did. Would stay there even if I didn't have a dog. Bottom line it was just a nice place, in the heart of town. You can sit on the front porch and just take in the bay, without leaving the house.

Nice sized unit. Owner picked us up and dropped us off at ferry landing, which was helpful with having suitcases along. Electric bike rentals available on site-I’d highly recommend them! We will definitely consider staying here again.

The place was clean and updated. It was large enough to accommodate my husband and I with 4 grandchildren. The full kitchen was nice for cooking meals. Netflix entertained the young kids at the end of each day. I would highly recommend this place.

The apartment was clean, the location ideal, and Carol was easy to work with during the week. With the availability to rent electric assist bikes or cars on site, and grocery, dining, and brewery right next door, everything is extremely convenient.

Great location on the harbor and easy walking to the ferry and the main street. The shared porch is not an issue as each unit has a good section for use. No complaints about the unit. I definitely recommend for a long weekend. We also rented a car from Burton’s which was equally as adequate. Carol makes checkin and checkout very easy and unlike another car rental on the island, Burton’s is organized and legit — papers signed, the vehicle was waiting for us as expected, etc. We will be renting again.
