Blue Haven Beach Resort

We had so much fun, we love this place my kids enjoyed being at the beach. The place is clean,quiet,family friendly. The room is clean and enough space for my family, a lil cold so bringing extra blankets is great, they dont provide towels so bring your own. The owner is very approachable and helpful. Overall place is is perfect for our weekend getaway,we love to come back again soon.

Stayed here last year and again this year with our family of 4. We've been to multiple places in this general area over the years and the Blue Haven beach is the biggest & nicest in the area. Great Lake Huron view. The property between cabins is spacious & enjoyable too, with multiple fire pits & activities to enjoy. Big bonus this year... The cottages have been totally remodeled; new floors, paint, bathrooms, showers, and other furnishings! My guess is any negative reviews were from prior to this. Looking great & made staying here a pleasure. We'll be back!

I’ve been to several resorts along Lake Huron and Blue Haven is the clear winner. We split our large family between two cabins and both were tidy and comfortable with lots of unexpected upgrades- newly remodeled bathrooms, fresh paint and new flooring to name a few. Also unexpected- the decor in our cabins was adorable! Blue Haven really is all about the property though, the beach is deep and wide, and the shoreline remains shallow enough for quite a distance, and my kids found so many unique activities to pick up in the grassy commons area between cabins. Reservations, check in and check out were a breeze. It’s clear that the new owners love this place and want to make sure their guests will love it too. We will be back!

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT! Our family of four stayed at Blue Haven and had a wonderful time. The new management is doing great job bringing a lot of updates to the property. The beach is absolutely beautiful. Our kids loved finding Petoskey stones and the sand is super soft and clean. Our cabin was spotless with a new shower, flooring and appliances. Would highly recommend.

My Father and I stayed here and it was great. The beach front is amazing, way better than we thought it would be. Pictures do not do it justice. The only issue is it rained one day, which is not there fault.

We were hunkered down in the cozy cabin and asked for some playing cards to pass the time. They immediately offered that, but also offered a bunch of board games as well. We stuck to the cards, but that gesture really shows how well they want to take care of their guests. Will be back again.

We recently stayed at Blue Haven for a family get together and it was excellent. The owners are usually on site and are amazing. The cottages are tidy and have had some recent renovations, such as new bathrooms. They also come equipped with a charcoal grill, dishes, utensils, coffee and essentials to cook. The photos on the website are an accurate representation. TV has a Roku with all the streaming apps downloaded that you can sign in to. The beach itself is wonderful—sandy, clean and water is shallow for quite a ways out. We found lots of great fossils and Petoskey stones. There are fire pits with plenty of chairs, a volleyball court and outdoor games for communal use. My kids had a great time swimming, playing and stargazing by the fire. The owners are super accommodating and were happy to provide local tips and extra beach toys.

Wow! I cannot say enough good things about this gem. Picturesque views with the beach right out your door. Quaint, clean cottages equipped with everything you need so you don't have to leave the property unless you want to. (Note, you do need your own towels.) Our family (2 adults, 1 8yo, 1 2yo) had so much fun. Staff was incredibly accommodating and welcoming. We just got home and are already looking forward to going back! Side note: Had to take a business video call one morning and internet was great!

We had a wonderful experience at Blue Haven Beach Resort! The cottage was the perfect size for our family of four, it was clean and comfortable and the owners made sure we were happy and taken care of. The location is everything. The beach was the main event for our littles and we felt comfortable letting them run around freely given the property is so large and the water is shallow for quite a ways out. They could safely bop back and forth between splashing around in the lake and making castles on the beach. We appreciated the sand toy library, where the kids could borrow other fun toys we hadn’t thought of bringing for the weekend. The property yard games were also a hit for our family, and relaxing by the fire pits each night was the best way to end the day under the incredibly star filled night sky (10/10 star gazing). We will definitely be back!

Spent the first weekend of the school vacation up here with a group of families from school and had a fantastic time. The location is absolutely gorgeous, and the huge beach pristine, with powdery yellow sand. There appear to have been many recent updates to the cottages since the (super-friendly) new owners took over; our kitchen cabinets were brand new and there were new vinyl plank floors, plumbing and electrical fixtures - the previous carpet sounds like a terrible idea! You don't expect a Four Seasons-style room from a cottage resort up north, so you can/should only compare to similar properties. The Blue Haven cottages are certainly more spacious and (now) better-appointed than similar places where we have stayed in the past.

As others have noted, if your focus is on the cottage, you are missing the point! The cottage is where you come for a refill or to sleep: your focus should be on the beach and all of the open space outside... Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable and we wish the new owners all of the success that their infectious enthusiasm and hard work deserves!

Just got back from our first Blue Haven stay, and my kids are already agitating for us to book again! We go up north with a group of families when school lets out, and this is the third cottage resort we have tried. Definitely our favorite.

The quaint dark blue cottage sleeps our family of five comfortably, and it was clean and showed signs of recent updates (our kitchen and floor were new, our friends' cottages had new bathrooms). I love that every cottage has a view of the gorgeous beach -- far and away the best beach of the places we've been. I had to work on Friday and jumped on the wifi, which worked great all day including through some Zooms. The new owners were onsite and super helpful and accommodating. They seem really invested in making Blue Haven THE best cottage resort on Lake Huron.

The highlight as far as our family was concerned was all the available outdoor activities. My kids left the cottage at 8am and only came back for bathroom breaks and food until I shooed them back in at 11pm! We had the advantage of being there with a large group of families with similarly-aged kids, which this resort really lends itself well to. The day starts with sunrise over the water and ends with smores over the campfire. This is what summer memories are made of!

I recently stayed at Blue Haven for 3 nights with my family of 5. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The beach was AMAZING and the kids had a blast swimming, digging in the sand and playing games! I will definitely come back.

Our family stayed here last year and again this year. The new owners have done an amazing job on remodeling and updating these cottages. We had a wonderful day the beach is beautiful and the cottage was clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. We are going back again this summer and my family can’t wait.

A great spot for a true “up north” vibe with the most gorgeous sunrise and white sandy beach. We love heading north to relax, unwind and to get away from things and this place was perfect. The rooms are nothing fancy, but the owners were pretty transparent about that and described it as rustic, which I’d agree with;) They also mentioned that they recently purchased the resort and are working hard to update some needed things. I recommend bringing some of your favorite things for a comfy night sleep- maybe even an air mattress if you have 5 people in a room;) They do have box fans if you request, which I totally need and appreciated. Showers aren’t fancy either…maybe shower shoes. We spent most of our time outside on the beach which is just incredible. There are great chairs, big bonfire pits and the cutest hammock swings. There was also firewood available. Drinking my Coffee on the beach while watching the sunrise was my favorite❤ We ended up eating out quite a bit and found some unexpectedly delicious restaurants. We were craving Italian and Rosa’s Lookout Inn totally hit the spot!! We will definitely go back! Great price too…it’s hard to find reasonable rates with that type of view:)

The best beach in northeast Michigan! The new owners are phenomenal, they're improving and maintaining this diamond in the ruff the right way. We would move in permanently, if they would let us, just to enjoy the beach. Definite 5 stars!!!!!

I have visited Blue Haven Resort on two different occasions. The beach is stunning with pure white sugar sand. The cottages are quaint and comfortable. The new owners are very dedicated to making many improvements to the property. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway this is the place to visit.

Me and my best friend have been there 3 times this summer and we Love it there. I take my dog and she loves it too. The water is clean, cottages are clean and comfy. Lisa, the owner is an awesome person. She's sweet and always makes sure we have everything we need. It's very peaceful and relaxing and fun. Definitely our new vacation spot.

Beautiful getaway on the banks of Lake Huron. We could relax on the beach or cottage while our child could have the freedom to play games and explore in this family friendly environment. Cottages have many recent updates too.

What a great place. The owners are friendly and welcoming to every guest. The location is right on the beach so there is no need to find a public area to swim. I highly suggest anyone go!

Lots of updates and renovations for the 2023 season. The main attraction is the incredible beach on Lake Huron. The sunrises are breathtaking and each cottage has a view.

The owner Lisa is very nice and was always asking us if we needed anything. The kids had a blast! The rooms are very well kept and clean! She has several bonfire pits so large families can be accommodated. We went on July 4th week so there were several other families, but we still enjoyed our time because of how comfortable the owner made us. I highly recommended this resort!
