A message from the owners:
As a child, I spent my summers enjoying the relaxed lifestyle the small community of Eagle Harbor offered. As an adult, I brought my family up to enjoy the community as often as I could. I am so excited to be able to share a piece of that with others.
Our 3 cottages were part of the original Lake Breeze Resort in Eagle Harbor. Built in the 1920’s, this resort had 15 cottages that sat on “The Hill” overlooking the harbor. As time went on, some of the cottages were sold, and we now find ourselves lucky enough to own three.

Nice trip
Although it was cooler than normal throughout our stay, the cabin proved to be adequate for all our needs. Have been RVers in the past, we were used to smallish showers and rooms, and the ease of coming and going were very nice. The surrounding countryside is absolutely breathtaking and well worth the visit.

As Described
Very cute, quaint and comfortable! The place is very clean. The trick we learned while there is that when it's cold out (30's) use a fan to move the air from the heater and it works great.

David, we agree Lake Breeze is a great little sleeper cottage. With a king sized bed and a bath, guests are all set to relax and enjoy the area. Thanks for your suggestion about using the fan with the heater. We hope that you come back again.

Lake Breeze cabin was a great location for our UP adventure. The accommodations were simple and perfect for two! A short walk to a beautiful lighthouse and Lake Superior! It was clean and easy to check in to. The directions provided were helpful. We would stay here again without hesitation.

Jenny, thanks for this review. Both the lighthouse and Lake Superior are pretty magical. Lake Breeze is a cute little cabin fit for 2. We'll look for your return.

Great Stay
We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything was as advertised. Cabin was cozy and comfortable. We would definitely stay again. The only problem I had was the WiFi didn't work. My husband had service on his phone so we used that instead of our laptop. Thanks for the great accommodations.

You nailed it!
We were quite pleased with the little details of the Lake Breeze. It was refined enough while still being true to the affordable, basic nature of this unit. This is in an excellent location for us. Happy!
FRESHWATER RESPONSE:
Thomas, we are so pleased that Lake Breeze made you happy. That makes us happy! It is a little gem, that is for sure. The beautiful sandy beach is perfect for swimming, and even has an old-fashioned slide, plus there are rafts available in the cottage for you to use. We look forward to your next stay!

Location trumped all- small space close to neighbors
"Perfect location on the driveway to the lighthouse and the deck that provided a spectacular view of both the sunset and the freighters! Walkable to the Eagle Harbor Inn with delicious, reasonably priced food and local beer selection. Cottage was furnished with all the details including fresh towels and cinnamon for the coffee! The cottages were extremely close together however and the washer and dryer were not in the cottage--the size was much smaller than expected. The location trumped all!"
