5 words for you...Not Your Average Tiny House...This tiny home will give you good vibes the second you pull in the driveway. The Little Wood Lodge is a vintage 1950's hunting cabin that has been reinvented into a gorgeous, meticulously detailed home that offers every amenity you could need. From the 1880's tongue and groove pine barn wood ceiling to the beautiful custom cabinets and granite countertops...comfort abounds. Situated in a soaring canopy of Oak, Maple, Elm and Pine trees, this is the escape you need. The Little Wood Lodge is set on 8 private acres...there are "country neighbors" that you will pass by along the gravel road but no immediate neighbors to either side of our property. We are super close to some of Northern Michigan's most special places!

A great place for a couple’s ski get away. We enjoyed being less than 10 minutes from Crystal Mountain’s slopes and having a secluded cozy and beautiful cabin to relax in (the gas fireplace was perfect to warm up with). The driveway was well plowed and easily accessible. We hope to stay there again and would highly recommend it.

Thank you, Mike! We also love coming home from the slopes and being able to cozy up around the fireplace!! We hope to host you again soon!
This property lived up to all its billing. These hosts have thought of almost everything for anyone to enjoy their stay at this property. It's peaceful and warm and close to so many attractions including Iron Fish Distillery, which I highly recommend. It is so quaintly appointed as well. You're gonna love this place.
Very nice place, had everything we needed and close to our favorite places.

Thank you for the review!! The close proximity to so many amazing places is truly one of our favorite things about our property. Would love to host you again!
Good place to stay and close to a variety of activities. Quiet surroundings which is what we wanted. Shawn was easy to work with in booking the property.
We enjoyed our stay in the tiny home! It was perfect for driving to Sutton’s Bay, Acadia Dunes and Crystal Mountain. The home is very clean and has everything you need for a relaxing stay.
Cabin was absolutely amazing! Exactly what I was looking for :) cabin was extremely clean with all kinds of amenities available. Will definitely book here again!
We had a fantastic time in this little house! It was so great to be able to get out and enjoy nature, the surrounding sites and restaurants, then come back to a quiet spot in the woods. We loved the attention to detail and decor in the house. My favorite spot was outside on the hammock to take a nap after a long trip of kayaking down the river with my family. While there, we rented bikes at Crystal Mountain, kayaked the Platte River, enjoyed the live music and mead at St. Ambrose Cellars, and ate at the Ironfish Distillery. It was a fun-filled weekend.

This is a great location in Michigan that allows for day trips for hiking and exploring. The accommodations are the perfect balance of rustic and modern. Everything you need is within this tiny house's walls.
We stayed here while skiing at Crystal Mountain and it was perfect for our family of 4. The house was the perfect cozy layout for us. Would definitely recommend if you are skiing at Crystal Mountain and are up for a tiny house experience!

Thank you so much Heather! We are so happy that you guys enjoyed our place! Looking forward to hosting you in the future…
Took the family of four up north for a week long vacation, stumbled upon this cabin and fell in love with it. The property was great and located near all the places we like to go, Manistee National Forest, Frankfort, Crystal Lake and the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Iron Fish Distillery was close and awsome
