About this property

Lodge @ Kimar`s Resort on Lk SUP

The Lodge is just a short walk to Lake Superior`s rocky shore where you can swim, paddle in our included kayaks & canoes, or collect rocks. We are also across from another inland lake that is great for swimming. Just 5 minutes from the nearest restaurant and 30 minutes from Pictured Rocks or Marquette`s infamous black rocks, this is a great central location in a quiet, rural setting. You can see the Northern lights, eagles, sun and moonrises and shooting stars!



You do not have a direct view of the lake from the cabin, but the property contains 300` of Lake Superior shoreline.



Our resort amenities include a public pavilion, firepit, and shared deck overlooking the lake for Superior views.



I am located at the same property and am available anytime you need me. I like to allow guests to initiate how much interaction they would prefer with me as the host.



We have a resort with 7 rentals and a charter fishing service in a small inlet of Lake Superior known as Shelter Bay.



This property is part of a resort; there are 7 rentals total onsite. We also have a charter fishing service onsite and many boats on the property.

We had a great stay at the Lodge at Kimar’s. The cabin was exactly as pictured. Very clean and had everything that we needed. Sarah was very helpful and answered all our needs. She gave us helpful tips on where to buy groceries and anything else we needed. This made our stay in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan a great experience!

Great cabin, ideal location

We had a great stay in UP Michigan. The cabin that we stayed in was very nice and had more than enough room for the 4 of us. The property manager Sarah was really friendly and helpful, offering plenty of advice on places to see while we were there.We didn't have a direct view of Lake Superior from the cabin but it was just a quick walk from our door down to the lakeshore. Kimar's Resort in Au Train was a great central location between many of our destinations. It was just a short drive east to Munising (20 minutes) or west to Marquette (25 minutes), and the drive east to Grand Marais was a little over an hour. The Pictured Rocks lakeshore is really beautiful. This was my first trip to the UP but I am certain that it won't be my last, and when we come back we would love to stay in the same place again.

Wonderful memories made

Myself and three friends loved our stay at Kimar's Resort! We rented the 4 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath lodge. The lodge had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The property was fabulous and everyone we encountered was great! We loved watching the sunrise near the pavilion on Lake Superior and we walked across the road to Deer Lake to watch the sunset. Sarah is the best host ever and has a gem of a resort! She was even nice enough to take time to help us look for Yooperlites. I recommend Kimar's Resort and plan to visit again!

Very clean

The Lodge was very neat and clean but very basic. Sarah was good to deal with. Check in was easy. Having 4 bedrooms was a plus for us. My only negative would be that the listing seemed to me anyway that the Lodge was directly on the water. It is a short walk to the water's edge. It is also a good distance from Munising, almost 20 miles.

Kimar Family Pride - A Fishing Village History

From the booking this resort provided superior communication through multiple avenues - VRBO, Kimar’s Email and through phone And text messaging. Sarah exceeds expectations as a professional Service Concierge. The facility was sparkling clean upon entry, and double-checked for comfort by Carrie, in just the right timeframe after we settled in. I encourage you to walk the entire property to explore the cabins, and including the bayshore, the fish-house and Pop’s Shop.

Great halfway point between Munising and Marquette.

Cottage (house) is located with in a short distance (125 yards) of Lake Superior. Cottage was clean and had plenty of space for hanging out. Open living room, dinning and kitchen area. I would recommend eating at Foggy's Bar and Steak house, Chathum Pub (Club sandwich and Fries are awesome) Miner Pasties (Skip the chicken Pasties however at Miner's) Muldoon's Pasties. Kimar's Resort is located within a short drive to several falls. They have a folder within the room that describes the area and attractions.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Kimar

Host profile image
Our family has owned and operated Kimar's Resort for four generations. It was built by brothers Al and Sonny in the 1940s, then was taken over by Al's son Dave and his wife Chris in the 1960s. Dave and Chris still run the resort today with the assistance of their children, Catherine and Sarah, as well as their grandson, David.

Why they chose this property

We have a unique location in a beautiful bay on Lake Superior. Because the bay faces due east, we can easily see the sunrise each morning and when the moon is full, we see it rise, too. We are directly across from an inland lake, Deer Lake, which is great for swimming, fishing, and watching the sunset.

What makes this property unique

We have an ideal location on Lake Superior. You can even take a charter fishing trip or a sunset boat cruise right from the dock at the resort! Included in your rental is access to our kayaks and canoes that you can take out here in the bay. This is a great community atmosphere and friends and family gather around the campfire nightly to share stories and laughter!
