"We just wrapped up a truly perfect Fall weekend in Northern Michigan at the Loon Loft, and it exceeded every expectation. This property is an absolute gem on Drummond Island! The minute we walked in, we were in love with the space. It’s a stunningly comfortable log cabin—the kind of cozy, rustic place that makes you instantly relax. Everything was immaculate and the atmosphere was so peaceful. We took full advantage of the beautiful waterfront, paddling around in the kayaks on the private cove or watching the sunset and ships go by on their additional property. The autumn colors reflecting off the water were absolutely breathtaking! Relaxing in the hot tub taking in all this beautiful remote, outdoor scenery made it one of the most memorable parts of our trip. What really set this experience apart was the incredible hospitality. The owners left many personal touches to make our stay perfect. From providing linens, soaps and games, to a detailed binder of local tips and even a bottle of complimentary wine, their thoughtfulness was evident everywhere. It felt less like a rental and more like staying at a friend’s well-loved home. We highly recommend Loon Loft to anyone looking for a relaxing, high-quality getaway. Five stars—we are already planning our next visit!"

"It’s in beautiful Drummond Island what’s not to love"

"Nice size for 2 adults. Would have been nice if there was salt and pepper but we made due. Shower a bit tiny, but better than some places we have stayed."

"The place was perfect for my wife and I and our pup Zero! It was just like the description said and the pictures were exactly how it looked. Everything was clean and stocked for our 5 night stay. Would definitely come back for sure! The fire pit was perfect as well as the grill and the hot tub was also an added plus! Perfect setting for star gazing and checking out the northern lights which we finally saw for the 1st time ever! It was out for 4 straight nights!! Check in and out was also a breeze!"

"We loved the cabin and had a great weekend getaway!"

"The place was great and so quiet. The cell reception and WiFi was poor at best, which made the place even BETTER! The fridge was a bit noisy but acted as “white noise “ while sleeping so it was fine. There was a bit of a musty smell but it’s a small cabin in the woods, open a window and let the amazing smell of the forest air in. I wish the cabin had either a wood burning stove or fireplace. Gus, our 2 year old Cattle Dog felt right at home and loved every second of his Drummond Island Adventure!The place was perfect and can’t wait to go back again next year, hopefully for a longer trip.

"Very clean and comfortable with beautiful views of Sturgeon Bay, our party of 6 loved the house and will stay there again!"
