About this property

The Perfect Adventure Nest!

Your map app will direct you to the Melstrand Union General Store, when you arrive at the store there is a wooden fence on the east side of the building. At the end of the fence there is a driveway leading back towards the woods, just before the dumpster at the end you will see a brown cabin to your left. There is a single door on the north side of the building, that is the entrance. Please reach out to Ariana if you are having difficulty locating the cabin.

This cabin is brand new with everything you'll need after a long day of hiking, fishing, riding the trails, or exploring the beautiful Pictured Rocks National Lake Shore. It is walking distance from the Melstrand Union General Store where you can not only find gas but also snacks, hand scooped ice cream, baked goods (made fresh daily), sandwiches, and so much more!

We look forward to being a part of your UP experience!

We very much enjoyed our stay. Having the general store nearby was so convenient! Lots of privacy and quiet with comfortable beds. The shower water was quite cold—I would stay again though!!

It was a quiet cute little place. However not a place I would recommend. The hot water only stayed hot for maybe 5 minutes. The last day of our stay it went out completely. There were 2 beds both of them were awful. We didnt sleep at all one felt like you were going to fall off the edge and the other felt like you were sleeping on the hardwood floor. It was so bad we looked for other places to stay sadly everything was booked up.

Was there for snowmobile trip, only stayed 1.5 days of my planned 3 day trip, due to the incoming blizzard. Overall the place was nice. Only issue is the snowmobile trailer parking they advertise. Well its no good, and you can barely get to it with how they plow the snow. and once I was back there it was hard to get turned around and get back out. They do have ample parking, but where they want you to park you trailer just isint going to work. I think they should revisit their plans for parking, but otherwise a nice place to stay.

Great place to stay. It was cozy and had everything we needed. Close to the snowmobile trail and gas is available at the general store during the day. We will definitely stay here again. The only issue we had was that the shower needs a higher water flow head. It wouldn't turn the water heater on by itself so we had to run a sink as well to get hot water. Not a big deal though

The location to nearby attractions was ideal; however, the shower temperature would fluctuate considerably and the heater did not work. We did appreciate the coziness and simplicity of the cabin.

Great spot in the UP to stay

This is a simple little cabin in the UP with a good location to Pictured Rocks area. We found it basic and reasonably priced for a couple of nights for us to enjoy the area. We appreciated the short stay opportunity and great communication with the owner/renter.

This was very conveniently located and clean. However it had a bad odor and the kitchen was very sparsely furnished…only a microwave, refrigerator, coffee pot and 2 mugs. It was fine for our needs as we spent the day in Pictured Rocks or the town of Munising and just needed a place to shower and sleep.

Clean, simple space to escape the mosquitoes!

Nice little place. The mosquitoes were thick at the time of year we went and this was a good, affordable substitute to camping.

Great Get-Away

My wife and I stayed here for a few nights on our honeymoon. We wanted a place near Pictured Rocks as we planned to go kayaking. The cabin was in between the two ends of the park and gave convenient access to everything in between.

Pictured Rocks visit

The place was just what we wanted. Location is fantastic about halfway between Munising and Grand Marais. It was only about a mile from the Mosquito Falls/Chappel Rock loop we most wanted to hike.
