Beaver Island, Michicgan: Moonbounce Bay

I'd be remiss if I didn't talk in some detail about the AMAZING house we rented on Beaver Island. While most of the rental cabins on the island are very 'cottagy', this one was a perfect blend of 'woodsy' and 'modern'. For only $1000 for an entire week, we rented this house called Moonbounce Bay. Here are some key features of the house.  

The place has 4 bedrooms, 2 w/ Queen beds, the other 2 with  bunkbeds w/ Queens on the bottom, so all-in-all the place sleeps 8.

 

 

 

 

Bunk bed room.

The master suite is in a loft which is really fun. There's a bathroom up there as well.

Here's the downstairs living area, complete w/ a bar, DirectTV (but, really, who watches TV while on a beautiful island in the summer??), and plenty of couch space. One of the bedrooms, a bathroom, and a laundry room are downstairs as well.

Master bathroom, there are 2 other bathrooms that also have showers/tubs.

Here's the upstairs living area. The floorplan is open, which is nice. There is plenty of space for multiple people to be doing multiple different activities.

See me in the loft?

Additional dining area.

The kitchen is new and modern- a must since we planned on cooking all our meals. There are seats for three at the counter.

View of the house from the beach. You can see how HUGE the top deck is. The bottom deck is great if it's raining because it is built so that the rain rolls off the edges rather than on to the bottom deck. (Not that we ever used it because we had near perfect weather!) Both decks have 2 large 6 people tables and tons of chairs.

Really a nice place. I highly recommend it. The house is fully stocked w/ towels, sheets, dishes, and all the cooking stuff you'd need. Just bring food and beer and you're in for a fabulous week!
