About this property
Cabin on 25 Acres of Forest
Come to play, explore, or just relax. A lite remodel has kept its rustic charm, and freshened it up a bit.
Steps away from the Cabin are trails and hills of the 25 acre mature forest. The Campfire area is light by torches and decorative lighting. Black River is a mere 1 mile hike through the forest. The new paved bicycle path a mile away down the bluff.

About the host
Hosted by Charlie Schafer
My wife and I love to hike and enjoy the splendour of upper MI. We decided to make our wooded cabin property available for other nature enthusiasts to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
The property is in the Anvil neighborhood on a bluff. A walk around Anvil offers views of up to 10 miles and other bluffs. The Cabin is located on 25 Acres of wonderful older growth forest with rolling hills, wildlife and natural fauna. Guests enjoy XC skiing and snow shoeing through the winter, while hiking and biking in the summer. All the ski Hills are a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
The seclusion of our forest is not found on 99% of rental properties. "Da Cabin in Da Woods" are off a paved and plowed township road. Than you venture back into the woods for your own enjoyment with nothing but woodland for hundreds of acres. Our 25 Acres are on the edge of modern services, while having the back country out the back door.
