A 12-foot aluminum fishing boat with oars and life jackets is on site. Two designated parking spots at the cabin. Trailers, haulers, etc may be unloaded at the cabin and then moved to parking near the entrance. Watercrafts are to be brought in every evening due to rapidly changing weather on a large lake.

Sleeps 8. 1 Queen (Main Brm), 1 full sofa bed (Living Rm), 4 twins (2nd Brm and sunroom). Guests may bring a boat only under 20 ft length due to lake depth/dock placement.

Kristen is such a class act. Thank you for an amazing stay. Definitely rustic….but everything you need is there. The views are fantastic. Very quiet. Stars at night were amazing! Did a great campfire and watched the sunsets. Swam with our dog many nights. Sandy shallow bottom….we were able to tire her out. Close to town and parks. We are planning on going back!

Cute, rustic cabin w/ amazing sunsets.

Lovely, cozy cabin in the UP. Kitchen has everything you'll need for your stay. Great location and easy drives to state parks in the area and day trips all over the UP. BEAUTIFUL sunsets on the lake and close to Lake Michigan for some fun in the waves! All neighbors were very nice. Good fishing on the lake. Would stay here again. Thanks for letting us use your cabin!

Enjoyed our stay

Our family really enjoyed our trip to the U.P. This cabin is right on the water and the kids loved it! They enjoyed the beach area there and kayak’s they provided between the weather that wouldn’t cooperate to go fish. The mosquitoes and the may flies are bad this time of year. But over all would recommend this place!

Scenic, Serene, and Musty

The view from the property is gorgeous. The cabin had about everything a tenant would need. The location is convenient. I would caution anyone with physical limitations, this cabin is challenging, especially the very low toilet seat.

Exactly what we were looking for

Easy check in. Property exactly as described. I was surprised at the amount of 'extras' that were provided! However our timing & Michigan weather being what it is, we did not use any of the watercraft or the corn hole boards that were available. Sunsets are beautiful! And the water... I'm talking drinking water... ice cold & wonderful. We found out from a neighbor that it was from an artisian well! This was a great place to unplug & relax! Will definitely be back!

Absolutely stunning sunsets!!!!

The lake and the location on the lake couldn't have been more perfect! If you love breathtaking sunsets on a peaceful lake, watching families of ducks swimming around, then this is your place. If you want 4 star fancy then move on. This cabin is very rustic and cozy but really that was just for sleeping. The outdoor spaces are were it is at. I am from Minnesota and I have never seen a lake so peaceful in my entire life. There was some boat and jet ski activity, but nothing noisy or obnoxious. The only issue we ran into was there were no outlets in the bedrooms, so we had to run an extension cord from the living room to the bedroom for our fan and my CPAP machine. The grounds around the cabin are shared with multiple other cabins (like a resort) but everyone was really nice and respectful. Honestly I would definitely recommend this place if you are over the hard party and uncomfortable camping life. Michael was very easy to work with and answered all my questions right away.
