The Westender

Summary:

Welcome to The Westender Retreat, a lakeside hideaway on the peaceful west end of the Les Cheneaux Islands in Hessel, Michigan. With views across Lake Huron, a private dock house, and room for up to 12 guests, it’s an easy base for a family getaway or a trip with friends.



The Space:

The main cabin

Settle into the main cabin and light a fire in the classic fieldstone fireplace. It has two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen and a double, plus a full kitchen for big group dinners or slow weekend breakfasts.



The shack

Just steps away, the separate shack offers a private retreat with a queen bed and its own bathroom. It’s perfect for a couple who want a little extra privacy, or for guests who like having their own space.



The waterfront

The property sits right on the shore of Lake Huron. Down at the water you’ll find a screened-in dock house, which guests love for meals, card games, and late-night conversation without the bugs. There’s also a fire pit by the lake for evening s’mores and stargazing. Bring your boat and use the boat slip to explore the islands, which are best seen from the water.
