Bay Street blue is an exceptional property in beautiful and historic Escanaba Michigan. The property has been completely restored so you have up-to-date amenities with historical charm. Everything you can think of is available at this property, the kitchen is fully equipped, seating is ample, bathrooms are clean and gorgeous, sleeping accommodations are exceptional. I would highly recommend renting this house and enjoying the beautiful views of Little Bay de Noc on the North Shore of Lake Michigan. In addition, there is a gorgeous wraparound porch with ample seating and views of the lake, if you’re lucky enough to enjoy the city band playing at the band shell you will love this property! ##### Lauri S.
