2 Bedroom Cottage in Rapid River

Our little cottage fondly named Bullwinkle Beach Cottage, is nestled in Ogontz Bay in Big Bay De Noc on Lake Michigan. We are located only 5 minutes from the quiet, historic village of Nahma. Our beautiful beach sports picturesque views of the Garden Peninsula as well as small islands outside of the Bay. Our Cottage location puts you only a few miles from the infamous Nahma Inn Restaurant pub and Inn, and 5 miles from the second oldest golf course in Delta County, Nahma golf course. Nahma Golf course is a 9 hold 36 par Golf Course on the shores of Big Bay De Noc. Our location also locks you into an era best described as the good ole days. Locals are relaxed and taken aback, quick to wave and welcome.
This quaint little cottage is rustic in flair but very clean and cozy with new linens and bedding. Plenty of space in our yard for kids to play, and for adults to "get away" from the noise of everyday life. There are 2 bedrooms with queen size beds and although we can sleep 4 people in our cottage, there is also a pull-out sofa available if you have a couple extra along for your trip. This simple cottage will give you the true up north, in the woods experience.
For your adventures while visiting the beautiful Upper Peninsula, nearby we have the historic Fayette state park, a restored smelting village from the 19th century that located on the bluffs of the Garden Peninsula. Kitchitikipi is Michigan's largest natural fresh water spring located near Manistique. This is a must see if you are in the area, and is referred by many as the mirror of Heaven. If you head North for about a 45-minute drive you will reach Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Here you will find many adventures whether you hike, kayak, or boat, to see the natural beauty of Upper Michigan. ATV Trail is only a few miles away as well for you off road adventurers.

Summary: Overall, our trip and our stay went well. We arrived a bit later than expected but came straight in to see what was in store. We and our children really enjoyed all the different variety of board games there were and we had fun playing darts and battleship! Some games were missing a few pieces but nothing major and the kids did not mind at all. I would say bring tons of bug spray because the mosquitoes are RUTHLESS. We spent our first night in the house, since we arrived later than preferred. Aside from a few things in the house being a little dirty, (the dishes were very dusty and you could tell the general upkeep was kept at a low par with there being a lot of spiderwebs and dead bugs in the corners of the doors and windows), we were able to manage with no issues. Also, a few items needed repairing like the kitchen counter, the shower door, the microwave door, the fireplace did not work, our tv remotes did not work and we did not have the batteries that the remotes needed (there were some AA batteries in a kitchen drawer but no AAA). But again these were just some superficial things around the house. The shower is small but we managed. Overall it was a great stay and I really enjoyed it. The small pathway from the house to the beach is great and we spent a large part of our first day out on the beach. Our dog and the kids loved every minute!

Summary: Cute little house with a nice layout. Unfortunately there are problems, most of them easily fixed. There is clearly a water leak in the kitchen ceiling, with mold. My allergies were bad the entire stay. The “doors” to the bedrooms were flimsy accordions that don’t close all the way. Without proper barriers between rooms, it’s hard to be on different sleep cycles. No darts for the dart board. The wood burner in the living room has a plastic log in it and doesn’t appear to be functional. The fire pit out back is great and there is firewood readily available nearby. The views of the bay are beautiful, great sunsets! There are nice hiking trails and cute towns in the area. Smart TV came in handy for a rainy evening.

Summary: Overall it was a great stay. We thought the inside of the cabin was actually cuter in person. It was a little disappointing how close the neighbors were considering the remoteness of the property but it was fine. Our 2 dogs LOVED playing in the shallow bay. There were some broken items (outdoor chair, shower door, missing towel bar, etc.) but nothing we couldn't maneuver around. Sent a list of these items to the property manager so they could be repaired for the next guests. Beds were very comfortable. Smart TV was a plus! Very quiet setting, beautiful tall oak trees, tons of deer tracks down by the water, great hiking nearby.
