About this property

Lake Superior Cottage with Spectacular View

Whitecaps Cottage is a Lake Superior vacation rental located on the eastern shore of the Keweenaw. The cottage offers a large open living area with a full kitchen, dining nook and electric Fireplace. Two bedrooms, and a full bath complete the interior.

This cottage provides wonderful views of Lake Superior sunrises and harvest moons. The large windows and French doors at the front of the cottage bring the grandeur of Lake Superior to the living space.

To the north, the Lower Entry Lighthouse is visible on clear days. Freighters occasionally cross in front of Whitecaps Cottage as they enter the Portage Canal. Further north is Rabbit Island and the extreme ski slopes of Mount Bohemia.

Bring your big toys!
We arrived to the most peaceful place! The neighbors were very quiet, the lake was quiet, sometimes. We really loved just watching the lake and it's many moods. Had a few fierce thunderstorms go thru and the as awesome to experience! We brought our kayaks and paddled the lake, then Otter lake and other waters as well. Then we brought out mountain bikes.

Beautiful peaceful place
I very much enjoyed my time at this cottage with my childhood friend. We both have very high paced busy lives and it was nice to have a ladies weekend. The cottage is very clean and bright sitting right next to Lake Superior. I will say you will need lots of mosquito spray! Don’t bring large wood if you plan on having a campfire and bring camp fire tools like log tongs and pokers. I highly recommend this place!

Why they chose this property

We've always wanted to have property on Lake Superior and this cottage is just the perfect location.

What makes this property unique

Skipping stones on the lake. Roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves. Relaxing by the electric fireplace in the evening. We have seen several eagles at our property and deer on our road. We love to watch the loons float by with babies on their back!
