It's a simple cabin near the lake with all of the basic amenities included. AC was an added bonus I didn't expect to need!

Newly remodeled and clean.
Very nice place in wooded subdivision. Short access to beautiful Lake Margrethe. Made a great base for kayak trips to nearby Au Sable and Manitee Rivers. Arrived two hours early not expecting to get access but host informed us it was ready and allowed us to start our stay early.
