Huron Horizons - Magical Sunsets & Four Seasons of Recreational Opportunities!

Magnificent sunsets over Lake Superior's Big Bay.

Our winter guests (cross-country skiers, snowshoers, hikers and those looking to curl up in a cozy cabin) will appreciate our plowed circle drive. We have a no-snowmobile policy at our cabin. We have nothing against snowmobilers, but we think our year-round neighbors might appreciate this.

For the protection of our cleaning personnel and guests during the 2025 rental season, we've built in a one-day cushion between check-ins.

Beautiful, two-bedroom cabin on Lighthouse Road in Big Bay, MI. As you walk in the front door you are greeted with spectacular views of Lake Superior through the living room bow window. Other custom windows bring in light and nature everywhere you turn. A custom-built circular staircase leads you up to the master bedroom with a king-size bed. You'll get spectacular views of Lake Superior from the Master Bedroom which includes a private bath and its own private deck. The downstairs bedroom has a full/full bunk bed. The upstairs loft provides additional views of Lake Superior, a cozy reading area, and with a queen sleeper sofa can double as a third bedroom. The cabin is well suited for four adults and two children.

The cabin has a well-equipped modern kitchen with a gas stove, a dining room table with seating for six, and two full baths. The downstairs bath has a tub/shower with tile surround and the Master Bedroom bath has a shower with tile surround. The huge wrap-around deck includes a screened-in gazebo to keep you away from the bugs, a gas grill, and a food prep area. The cabin also has a newly installed two-zone air conditioning system, with an outdoor compressor, to keep you comfortable during hot/humid weather.

“The Huron Mountains encompass the most wild and rugged territory in Michigan. It is a region of low, yet surprisingly rugged mountains, swamps, lakes, and high plateaus.” (Huron Mountains Summit Post) The Huron Mountain Range runs from the Marquette area north and west through Big Bay and beyond, and along with the sandstone cliffs of Salmon Trout Point provides a distant backdrop for sunsets over the bay. The large lot, 225’ of Lake Superior shoreline, gives you a wide-angle view of the bay to the west. Lake Superior has been telling her serene and rugged story for thousands of years, and each daily chapter (weather permitting) ends with a sunset over Salmon Trout Point. Every sunset you celebrate from Huron Horizons is one that has never been seen before and will never be seen again. Yes, they are that special.

Make sure you set aside some time to explore Marquette during your stay. Marquette "Queen City of the North" is about a 30-minute, beautiful drive from Big Bay, and is perhaps the most picturesque city in Michigan. We're a little biased but we believe that to be true. Marquette has many wonderful shops and restaurants (our favorite being The Vierling which overlooks the Ore Dock and Marquette's beautiful Lower Harbor). While in Marquette we would also highly recommend visiting Presque Isle and allowing enough time to hike and explore this wonderful peninsula. The Marquette area provides tons of outdoor opportunities including year-round world-class mountain bike and cross-country ski trails.

Here are some nearby attractions. Google for directions and more information. A PDF with additional information about the cabin, including links to these area attractions, will be sent after you've confirmed your reservation:

Another wonderful stay in Big Bay, complete with the aurora! This home truly has it all, but the location is just perfect for anyone who truly wants to “vacate”. It’s beautifully appointed and very comfortable and safe. Thank you again.

Excellent property and everything you need for a week by the lake. Location is close to many hikes with a sandy beach and lighthouse nearby. Superb views of the lake from all main areas. We had no problem sleeping our three young children and having space for everyone to play and relax.
