We had an amazing time at this incredibly clean cabin! We spent our days fishing and swimming on the lake and using the various boats available. We spotted tons of wildlife while we were there and made use of both the grill and the fire pit. Carole was a fantastic host who communicated with me at the beginning, middle and end of our trip to make sure everything was going smoothly. Besides the breathtaking views and endless fun, the property is filled with a variety of books, magazines, antiques and decor from various times and places making for a truly one of a kind cabin experience!

Peaceful and Relaxing Stay

We stayed for two days and had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was perfect for our family of 3. We really enjoyed touring the lake on the paddle boat. It was a relaxing and peaceful stop on our way to the UP. Carole was great. She was responsive and quickly answered all our questions. We definitely would stay here again.

Perfect Getaway

My family and I booked this location to escape the city for the weekend with our dogs and it was the perfect getaway. The hosts were lovely, the property was the perfect updated cabin, and the space was away from it all with a perfect night view and trails to wander.

Definitely a hidden gem!

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin and were very pleased when we arrived. The property grounds were amazing and on a private lake. The pictures do not do this cabin justice! Cabin was very clean and had everything we needed for a a weeks stay. Carole is a wonderful host and this is somewhere we would stay again.

Perfect weekend getaway

Our family loved the mix of old and new at this cabin. Legit log cabin on one side and modern kitchen/bathrooms on the other. The eclectic decorations made it even more fun. We played in the lake, saw some amazing sunsets and even got to see the northern lights just down the street. It was relaxing and quiet which is just what we were looking for.

Unique, interesting cabin in paradise.

My husband and I, with my son, daughter-in-law, and 22 month old granddaughter loved this cabin. It was challenging with a toddler but we had a wonderful week. Carole, the host, is extremely friendly and helpful.
