Summary

In July 2022, a retired couple seeking to move to Beaver Island asked for a September–June rental near the ferry or a plowed road so they could experience winter before committing to a purchase. In September 2023, a separate listing advertised a three-bedroom, two-bath waterfront house for the November–May season at $2,000 per month plus utilities.

Evidence limits

These are prospective-resident testimony and a direct rental advertisement. They do not establish a lease, occupancy, the advertised home’s exact location, or the total supply of off-season housing.

Sources

  1. A retired couple with a dog sought a September–June rental near the ferry or on a plowed road, with covered parking, to experience winter before deciding whether to purchase. A reply offered a possible option. This is one household’s housing inquiry and an unconfirmed lead, not evidence of a completed rental or island-wide winter-rental supply.

  3. A direct rental advertisement offered a three-bedroom, two-bath waterfront home from November 15 to May 15 for $2,000 per month plus utilities, with a wood stove, efficient insulation, and a detached two-car garage. It establishes advertised availability and terms, not a signed lease, location, occupancy, or complete winter-housing supply.
