We enjoyed our stay here with our family of five (three kids ages 4–8) and our 70-lb Great Pyrenees. The view of the lake is absolutely unmatched, and watching the ships go by was a highlight for all of us. The kids especially loved the outdoor hammocks. This isn't "beachfront" but is lakefront. The shore is rocky.That said, this is definitely a shack, so it’s important to set expectations accordingly. There is no A/C, and the small space can get quite warm in the summer, especially when running the dryer. Condensation also accumulates on the pipes running through the kitchen and can drip onto the floor.Some less frequently used areas/items around the cabin could use more cleaning and maintenance. We found accumulations of bugs and debris in a few spots.The cabin comfortably accommodated our family of five. Although it is advertised as sleeping 6–8, eight people would likely feel pretty cozy. There is a shower, but the hot water supply is limited, so running the shower, dishes, and laundry at the same time can mean waiting for the water to heat back up.The Wi-Fi is spotty, but that’s understandable for this remote area of the U.P.Overall, if you’re looking for modern amenities and a polished accommodation, this probably isn’t the place. But if you want a rustic, laid-back stay with an incredible lake view, ship watching, hammocks, and a pet-friendly environment, this place delivers!

What an amazing experience. Accommodations were perfect, decor was perfect and the sound of the lake was very relaxing. Would definitely stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay at The Shack! It’s cozy, with a shabby-chic lakeshore vibe. The property was clean and well equipped and just feet from Whitefish Bay on Lake Superior. Our family is already planning another trip back soon! Thank you for sharing a piece of paradise with us!

Overall happy with our stay. We were able to prepare our meals and enjoy Paradise with our pets. Would encourage people to clean up after themselves in the yard area to avoid injuries to others. There were numerous bottle caps and sharp objects in the yard. We used the fire pit once, just wasn’t well maintained and the chairs were in rough shape. Interior was fine just a lot of dirty toss pillows and excess clutter that made the place feel smaller. The Shack sits very close to the Bay with rocks and a drop to the water so must be careful when walking out the back door and the front is right off a busy highway.
