About this property
UP Riverfront Cabin with rustic charm & modern amenities. Great for families!
Let your cares wash away at our private family retreat on the banks of the Rapid River. Whether your watching the kids catch crayfish, playing yard games or enjoying your favorite beverage next to a riverside bonfire at sunset, let our family retreat be your home away for your next UP vacation. Not the right weather to be outside? Grab your beverage and a blanket and cozy up inside to play cribbage while watching the flames flicker in the pellet stove. This place has something for everyone!
Your choice of activities is endless depending on the season. Immediately around the cabin is hiking, Rapid River Cross Country Trails for skiing/snowshoeing, waterfalls to explore, bird hunting, and ORV/snowmobile trails. Driving south 5 minutes gets you to the shores of Little Bay de Noc for fantastic fishing and beaches. Driving northeast 30 minutes gets you to the shores of Lake Superior in the town of Munising, where the sights and activities of Pictured Rocks greets you. The abundance and access to waterfalls both in the summer and winter is fantastic. Don't forget about the ice fishing! I could go on but you get the point! A short 5 minute drive into the local town of Rapid River offers you your basic convinces like restaurants, bars, gas, and basic grocery. A 20 minute drive takes you into Escanaba for anything you could want, from downtown shopping to modern name brand stores.
The cabin is nicely equipped with all of the conveniences you would expect at home. From a fully stocked kitchen to sheets on the bed and fresh towels in the bathroom. Even a washer and dryer is there for your use! Also included is a 36" blackstone griddle and a pellet grill/smoker for those tasty homemade meals. You enter the cabin into a mudroom that is perfect for storing your extra gear and overstock. The mudroom stores the grill and smoker as well as an extra fridge. It is heated separately by an electric baseboard heater giving you a great place to dry your outdoor gear. The yard is very spacious with outside lighting for after hours games. The firepit can be moved around and all firewood is included, but please be respectful on the amount you use. The cabin is constantly undergoing updates and improvements as it is our personal family getaway.
The cabin has four bedrooms with the back two bedrooms accessed from the front ones. One bedroom has two sets of bunk beds, and the other two bedrooms have a pair of single twins. Enough beds for 9/10 people or two separate families! There is one full bath with a spacious shower and a second toilet in the mechanical room.
The outside of the cabin may look modern with siding and a metal roof, but the cabin walls are covered in knotty pine and rustic decor, and the inside is full of years of memories. Come make some of your own!

Very relaxing midwinter stay in early March for wife and I who sort of booked it at last minute. Host went out of way to make sure the road was well cleared and plowed as it was likely really buried in when we made our reservation after recent storms. Very clean cabin and very private set back in woods by frozen river!
We had a great stay exploring the area. Centrally located to lots of places to explore. Great to have lots of beds and large table for our family of 6. Would recommend for families! Easy to connect with host if needed.
Both the property and cabin were beautiful! Excellent communication with the owner. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a peaceful getaway! The river at the back provided a great amount of fun. Seriously, can't say enough good things about here!
We absolutely loved our stay at Todd's cabin! The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free, which made settling in a breeze. The cabin itself was cozy and well-maintained, and we especially appreciated the excellent kitchen facilities—it had everything we needed to cook and enjoy our meals comfortably. We look forward to stay there again in the future. Thank you!!
Our family enjoyed staying at your cabin. We really liked the large common space to gather ,have meals, visit and play cards. The drive down to Little Bay wasn’t bad and it made a great home base for our fishing trip. Thanks again for sharing your place. Lots of memories were made. We hope to visit again next year.
We enjoyed walking down the creek, and we loved how peaceful and quiet it was. We saw a doe and 2 fawns on the property also. It was clean and we had everything we needed. I would recommend a couple of boot dryers.In the mudroom! Cozy, homey cabin feel.
What a great place! Very nice cabin, the creek out back was great for the kids. Todd was a great host, very responsive. The cabin was well stocked, very clean, and had everything we needed. Bunk beds for the kids were great, lots of room for everyone to hang in the main area. Secluded and gave the peaceful vibes we were looking for! Would love to come back!
Great cabin in the woods. Very remote and quiet and backs up to a river that our kids could easily walk in and catch crawfish for fun. The cabin's WiFi worked well for multiple computers (basic email/ browsing). There is one full bath and a "emergency" (extra) toilet in the laundry room - smart idea when someone needs to go when someone else is in the bathroom. There is a fire pit and plenty of firewood (although we didn't use the pit or wood ourselves).The bedroom layout wasn't exact what we imagined though. The rooms are connected so you have to go through one bedroom to get into the next bedroom. I wanted to mention this for those that are planning out rooms when staying with family members. However, the bunk beds were industrial grade (heavy duty) to easily support adults (in addition to kids).There is a nice mudroom area when you first walk-in which is great for taking off shoes or wet sandals to keep the house area clean. There are 2 refrigerators as well. The island table works well for prepping food for multiple people.Overall it's not a huge cabin but ample room for multiple families/ couples. It's close distance to many trails for hiking, additional river spots, and easy to get to Gladstone Beach (15 min) or Escanaba Beach (30 min). There is shopping available in both cities as well and nice little downtown areas.
This is the second year at the lodge for the guys to get together and fish a little it meets all of our needs and being able to all be in one cabin together is a huge plus. Were already looking forward to next year.
Very nice cabin in a great location. It’s very private - can’t see neighbors from property. It was very clean. It is a family’s personal cabin so there’s a few extra personal items around. The cabin had everything we needed- kitchen items, tools, camping chairs for sitting by the creek. My kids loved catching crayfish.
The location was great just off of hwy 41. Clean and accommodating for our family. The children loved the river for wading and even a net for catching crayfish!
We had such a great time at the cabin with our family. The river was absolutely perfect for our kids, and the house was so well stoked and comfortable. We felt right at home.
Todd was very responsive and accommodated all our needs. The house had everything you could want and then some. We greatly enjoyed our stay and the hospitality.
A group of us fishing together for 30years stayed at the property couldn't have served us better plenty of room well kept the whole group was very impressed and enjoyed their stay hope to be back again thanks Todd you we're right we had a blast thanks Dan
