About this property

Quiet Private Cabin in the woods near fishing, hiking, skiing,ORV,snow trails

Updated 3 bed 2 bath cabin. Really a home but is a cabin for me. Great area nestled right in the Manistee forest but close to everything. Trail system right down the road, tippy dam and Caberfae both less than 13 minutes away. Manistee is 18 miles to the west and Cadillac just a little father to the East. Close to all the rivers and hot spots around these great area.

Cabin has blackout curtains, completely updated, nest thermostats, air conditioning and starlink internet which is rare in this area and the fastest around here. Located in the Manistee Forest near prime fishing, hunting and trails. The cabin is nestled amongst trees, providing a serene and secluded atmosphere. Inside, you will find a cozy living room with a wood pellet stove, perfect for warming up after a day of outdoor activities. The fully equipped kitchen offers all the amenities you need to prepare delicious meals. Upstairs, the bedrooms are tastefully decorated and offer comfortable beds for a restful night's sleep. The surrounding area is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, with endless opportunities for fishing, hunting, and exploring the scenic trails. Whether you're seeking adventure or simply looking to relax in nature, this cabin is the perfect getaway.

Garage is not available as we keep our personal items there. Pole barn is available for an additional fee if required but will remain locked unless previously arranged. Per VRBO policy we disclose our exterior cameras only (nothing inside ). IT is a rental in a rural area so we have cameras outside for security when not there. We have 1 in the back yard, 1 facing driveway, 1 facing front of driveway in front of garage and 1 facing the garage and barn (4 outside cameras only). Thank you . Per friendly but pls follow rules and see the pet fee when you use VRBO to check out/ Pay. Thank you

Snowshoe fun

We are 2 retired couples who snowshoe. Our time at the cabin was fun and comfortable. The amount of snow was terrific! West Michigan had so much more snow than the east side. Although it was cold outside, the cabin was warm and cozy. Taking a hot shower after an outing was very relaxing. We enjoyed going to Manistee which is only 20 minutes away.

Great Place for Hunting and Fishing

Great for hunting camp. Extra space to store your gear so its not in your way. In the middle of 2 bigger cities, but far enough to get away and hunt. Hunting in 2024 perfection.

Great stay

The house and the property was perfect for our vacation. We came out to kayak the big Manistee and the Pine river. The house very close to both rivers. Excellent location. The house very clean and updated. I think this was the only vacation rental I've stayed at that TV's in all the bedrooms, which very nice. The host very accommodating. Leaving a nice gift basket and firewood. I'll definitely be staying here again. We loved our stay

Book it!

This was truly one of my best VRBO experiences! My family and I loved the setting. We walked our dog down the road, which felt like a secluded winter wonderland. The cabin is set back from the road and gave us the privacy we were hoping for. We skiied at Crystal Mountain which was an easy 30 minute trip from the cabin. The cabin itself was extremely clean and quaint. We loved having our own bedrooms and two baths. The kitchen was well-supplied and the hosts supplied us with a gift basket and access to anything in the cupboards. I had brought coffee for a filter, but there was a Keurig rather than a coffeepot. No worries, there was a full package of Starbucks French Roast pods. The hosts thought of every detail to make this visit a joy. I hope we can return!
