Beachfront~Sandy Lake Michigan~Near Mackinac Ferry

Welcome to The Beach Hutch, your home away from home! If you are searching for the perfect beach front vacation spot, your search is over. Located on Lake Michigan’s pristine north shore and offering 120 feet of private soft sand beach, this truly spectacular home encompasses everything you would expect in a beach front home.
Entering the home, you are greeted with a large open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, premium furnishings and bright airy windows offering exceptional lake views from almost every room. There is a spacious well-equipped Kitchen with bar seating for 4 and table seating for 6. The sink has Purified Reverse Osmosis drinking water so you won't have to bring or buy bottled water! You will also find the washer/dryer as well as Bedroom/Bathroom 1 in this area of the home. Next you will enter the Great Room with a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, cozy couch seating for 5 and a 60-inch HDTV. Off to one side of the Great Room are Bedrooms 2 & 3 along with Bathroom 2.

This stunning room is furnished with a dining table for 6, a queen sleeper sofa, and ample seating/comfort as you sit and take in Lake Michigan’s vast beauty.
From the Sunroom you can access the wrap around deck, teak table, grill and outdoor shower. As you step off the deck you are just 30 steps away from the sugary soft sand and the crystal-clear water of Lake Michigan. Outside there is something for everyone’s beach side enjoyment. Some of the amenities provided are Adirondack chairs, kayaks, water and sand toys, and a Little Tikes playground. The soft sandy bottom and gradual sloping water depth allow for some of the best swimming in the area. On the far end of the beach is a firepit. This is the perfect place to sit under the stars with a relaxing bonfire while catching glimpses of shooting stars.

Bluff Beach Hutch Stay
We truly enjoyed this property! We stayed at the Bluff Beach Hutch. The home is huge, had a wonderful view of the water and a beach just a few steps away, with privacy! The home was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed plus more. The owners were fantastic! We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Perfect Porch Views
The view from the living room windows is gorgeous! The porch view is even better, it’s by far the best part of the house. It’s very private and relaxing. You walk right off the porch to the sand and water. We had 4 kids with us and you could watch them play from multiple views with ease which made them happy and the adults! The homeowners were very accommodating and answered the few questions we had very quickly. One issue with a tub drain was immediately taken care of and they even offered a way for us to watch a MLB game we couldn’t get locally.We loved St. Ignace and the close trip to Mackinaw city and Mackinaw island. There are several restaurants and ice cream shops close by. This was on of the most relaxing and enjoyable trips we’ve taken with our family and friends in a long time we will go back!!

Peaceful Retreat
We enjoyed the beach hut with our family including many children. The home was clean and in order. The distance from the home & deck to the beach & lake was a dream. It’s an amazing location. The children spent a lot of time in the lake and walked to many sand bars. Thank you for this experience.

Our vacation at the Beach Hutch
Everything about this vacation was great. The place was even nicer than I could have hoped it would be. There was plenty of room and the deck and the beach were amazing. The location was good, it was easy to get around to see some of the sites. We had a wonderful little vacation. Thank you so much!

Great Family Retreat!
Phenomenal views, well equipped home, good beach, nice owners to deal with, attractive natural barriers from road and neighbors. Only slight negative is proximity to a major highway with traffic 24/7, but we’d go again.

Second time we have stayed there. Love this home. Gorgeous view! Love sitting in the sunroom and looking out over Lake Michigan! Enjoy seeing the freighters go by. Home has lots of space. Everything you need in the kitchen to make meals. Had a great time taking the 2 kayaks out. Can go far enough that you can see the Mackinac Bridge.
