About this property

Just 7 miles from downtown Indian River, this rustic cabin sits a mere 25’ from the edge of the Pigeon River, a blue-ribbon trout stream popular with fly fishing anglers. It is a perfect 4 season get-away with easy year-round access. Enjoy snowmobiling, fishing or hunting footsteps from the door. It can be your home-base for exploring Northern Michigan - an easy drive to Petoskey, Mackinaw City, Cheboygan, Gaylord, and just minutes from Indian River and Burt Lake. It is very close to 5 Little Traverse Conservancy properties for those who enjoy hiking.
This 1940’s-built cabin is cozy - 2 bedrooms with a double bed in each. The screened-in porch is the perfect place to relax with a book and a beverage, or to simply listen to the River.
This is the ideal place to disconnect. There is no Wi-Fi, but a strong cell phone signal so a hotspot works well; the TV gets several PBS channels and sometimes network channels if the weather is perfect and the leaves have falln from the trees, . There is a DVD player and an eclectic collection of DVDs available. The bathroom has a shower only; there are overhead fans in all rooms as well as portable fans.

Family Visit

Very clean and cozy. I loved the Christmas lights still being up! Everything you could need was there. Close to Cheboygan andmy family's home. Very comfortable place to come after all of the things I needed to do with family.

New Years Bday get away

I booked this sweet little cabin for my bf’s Christmas/birthday present. We had a great little get away. The cabin is quaint and all 2 people need. Listening to the river every morning while drinking coffee made us want to stay longer!

Great stay - it’s the little things!

We were very happy with the care taken by the owner to make for a comfortable stay. Everything we ever could have needed - coffee, bottled waters, dog bowls!, you name it. Very charming cabin right on the water, with fire pit. Plenty of nice hiking spots within a short drive.

Clean, Communicative, and Beautiful

The cabin is cozy, and has exactly you would need for a good time. The host is communicative and the cabin is organized and labeled in a way that is very useful. The river is beautiful and the cabin is about 20 feet from the banks. Screened in porch as well as an outdoor area for a fire or just watching the river. Didn't do any fishing but can imagine this is the perfect fishing spot. Constructive notes would be: It is slightly less remote than it appears in the listing. Beautiful area but you do have neighbors close and close to a road. Only thing missing inside was a cutting board, otherwise a very well stocked kitchen.
