The house was very nice. And not that complicated to get to. Really easy! Would def recommend this place for a family as well! We used it for a girls weekend!
GPS is not accurate with the direction but the host prepared us ahead of time. Location over was great most attractions were within a 15 minute drive. The cabin was definitely cozy, clean and most importantly very peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay.
We booked us for a Snowmobile trip and it was great

Second time staying here and she just thinks of everything. My family loved all the little details and effort she puts into this place. Would definitely recommend no matter the season.
This cabin has everything you need for a seamless snowmobile trip. It is close to a main trailhead (8), town with a restaurant/bar, grocery store, clean and stocked with all of the necessities. Definitely would stay here again!
Megan was super welcoming and helpful. She checked in via message to make sure we made it ok as well as had everything we needed for our stay. They had lots of extras and things for guests in case you forgot something or just wanted to use. We would definitely stay here again!

I take pride in creating a clean, comfortable, welcoming space where guests can relax, explore, and feel taken care of.

I want you to feel at home, cared for, and supported throughout your stay.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this area because it offers the best of both worlds — total peace and privacy in the woods, but still just minutes from Munising, waterfalls, beaches, and Pictured Rocks. It’s the kind of place where mornings are quiet, nights are filled with stars, and you can step outside and immediately feel grounded. I wanted a space where guests could slow down, recharge, and experience the beauty of the Upper Peninsula the way locals do.
