About this property

AFrame Cabin w/Acreage-Hamlin Lake-Hot Tub-Kayaks-Firepit-Dogs okay! No Fees!

Hot tub, kayaks, row boat, 2 decks & firepit-FUN GALORE!

Located with access to the most desired all sports lakes in the area, Hamlin Lake, you won’t want to miss this rustic setting on acreage, very private! Get the feeling of rustic living with all of the modern amenities. From the stainless steel appliances; master bedroom with queen bed and the loft with 2 new full size mattresses (one extra firm hybrid coil mattress and one medium/plush memory foam bed), to the fire pit and outdoor hot tub. It has a Gas Grill with a large deck a hot tub. Take a walk through the woods or enjoy a fire in the fire pit. You can watch TV on the 50” TV (Roku) , and an upstairs TV with built in DVD player. Or sit on the couch and enjoy the fire and heat from the pellet stove (seasonal pellets) or cool air from our central air conditioning. If you enjoy watching all kinds of wildlife or just want to sit back and enjoy a great book, don’t miss an opportunity to enjoy your next travel or romantic getaway to the Arrowhead Cabin.

Celebrating something special? We have romance, anniversary and birthday packages available - just message us!

The cottage is private and does not sit directly on the lake (less than 1000 ft down a dead end road in front of the home), but does have seasonal lake views - shallow water area, able to put in with kayaks/rowboat (no dock). Close by are other launches such as Victory Park or the Beautiful State Park! (Seasonal furniture and kayaks). We are in the upper Hamlin area, meaning depending on the time of year and how the weather is, there are cattails/reeds/rice in the area, but there are usually runs cut to get out into the main part of Upper Hamlin. You won't be disappointed in the beautiful views! Recommend 4WD in the winter!

Short drive to Lake Michigan and coast towns (Ludington, Manistee....), Amber Elk Farm, shopping, restaurants, beautiful Ludington State Park with swimming/fishing/hiking trails/snowshoeing....

cabin getaway

The house was cute and the location was beautiful, although a little farther from town than we had thought. There was plenty of room to park our boat and launch at nearby ramps. The only disappointment was the hot-tub which was not very clean, so we did not use it like we had planned.

We loved our time at the Arrowhead Cabin, the pictures do not do it justice! So beautiful inside and outside. If you like to cook, the cabin is perfectly stocked. The hot tub was great after long days of hiking and beach. The Ludington area is so beautiful with so much to do, I would definitely stay here again and recommend.

A peaceful, private getaway

This A-frame cabin had everything we needed - nothing more and nothing less - for a quiet week away to enjoy the beautiful scenery and outdoor fun that Michigan has to offer. The private location, while off the paved road in a peaceful spot in the woods, was a great jumping off point to get to many interesting towns and lakes. The host was very attentive and kind and provided everything for a comfortable stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to return for another visit!

It was perfect for our needs. Happy it had AC as it was hot and muggy outside. C

Cutely decorated, well maintained, had everything we needed. We got a lot of rain and had a small issue in which we text the owners and let them know. They were quick to respond and thanked us for letting them know. I would stay here again.

Relaxing Weekend

It was a quiet and relaxing setting in the woods. The cottage had all the amenities that you could ever want or need. Additionally,, it was very, very clean and welcoming. The beds were very comfortable as well. We love Ludington State Park and it was a short drive there, so we could hike and kayak there!! Arrowhead did not disappoint!

Cute but swampy area

Make sure you prepare for mosquitoes. Bring a sweatshirt too. Cute house and neat fixtures, lighting was difficult but id recommend it to a couple. Plan stuff to do or bring stuff. Kitchen is not set up to cook. Just the basics

Great Cabin

The cabin was great, very clean and very lodge feeling. Could use a little more lighting in the living room area. Was very comfortable and not crowded. We has snow, so wish we could have enjoyed the fire pit and walking around the property, but can't control Mother Nature. Will definitely recommend and would return for another weekend.
