La Pointe Cottage | Artist's Perch on Madeline Island Overlooking Big Bay and Short Walk To Beach

1 Bedroom Cottage in La Pointe

Wrapped around an original fieldstone fireplace, this 2-bedroom cabin with 1.5 baths will thrill you with its cliffside views of Lake Superior and the Porcupine Mountains. Rustic and modern, the cottage was designed by two Chicago artists who also designed the Eleanor and Sam Himmelfarb House, now on historic registries. With Frank Lloyd Wright touches, the cabin features floor-to-ceiling windows and walk-out decks from each room where birds are ever-present and sunrise and moonrise provide spectacular entertainment. The naturally wooded perch includes birch, maple, spruce, and pine along with a variety of native flowers and lupine. A stone's throw from sugary Big Bay Beach, the cabin uniquely mixes antique barn wood boards and white-washed walls to create a dreamy aesthetic where time stops, waves lap, and sun stirs the soul. Evenings spent around the campfire with light breezes off the lake are perfect for stargazing and reflecting on the cosmos. The elegant master bedroom features a queen bed and its own half bath. The second bedroom is a converted artist studio with vaulted ceilings and wraparound windows with wooded and lakeside views along with 1 queen and 1 double futon bed (extra day bed available in the main room). A light-filled galley kitchen and cozy bath retain 1950's touches. Enjoy an easy walk or use of our free bikes to the Riviera of the North (Big Bay Beach) or head to the tiny town of LaPointe for open-air bars and farm-to-table cafes.
