About this property

Log Cabin Luxury on the Romantic AuSable River - Truly Charming!!

Looking for a truly unique, breathtaking and romantic Log Cabin Experience on the Au Sable River? You've Found it!!

Copper Fox Lodge is a rare, 4-season, luxury-appointed, log cabin sitting on the rivers edge. Experience a gorgeous log cabin with upscale furnishings and touches. Cuddle up to a cozy stone fireplace. Relax with incredible riverfront views on one of America's natural scenic treasures - The Au Sable! Sit under towering pine trees. Cast a line in a legendary trout stream. This is an atmosphere most people never get to experience first hand. We love sharing our cabin with others and ultimately our greatest desire is that you have the most memorable vacation possible.

No matter the season, the atmosphere is perfect for a romantic getaway, anniversary, birthday, honeymoon, or intimate family vacation.

The cabin sits in a secluded river location with 12 acres of privacy and is for your exclusive use. Access to the river at the cabin is easy. There are no high banks to contend with and you have a half mile of wadable trout fishing water and lots of river structure in front of the cabin to hold trout. Brown, Rainbow, and Brook trout can be caught right out front.

In the warmer months common outdoor activities in the region include fishing, hiking, bird watching, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, tubing, golfing, ATV trail riding, and horseback riding. In the winter months things don't slow down as the temperatures, snowfall, and terrain make an ideal winter wonderland for hunting, snowmobiling, tubing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and even downhill skiing. The area is rich with outfitters supporting your canoe, kayak, tube, ATV, snowmobile, horseback, skiing, and fishing interests.

The Michigan roads in this region are well maintained year round. The access road to the cabin is also maintained year round catering to 2WD vehicles. We also have a Generac standby, whole house, generator - so you never need to worry about losing power in a storm and the cozy fireplace will keep you toasty warm in the winter.

Nearby are the Holy Waters of the Au Sable, Mio Trophy Waters, and Masons Tract along the South Branch. Experience miles of groomed snowmobile trails throughout the region right from our doorstep. The region also sports numerous cross country ski trails, tubing hills, and even a few downhill slopes.

The cabin has everything you could possibly need. Fully furnished Kitchen; All Bedding and Linens; All Bath Towels; Flat Screen TV; Satellite DirecTV; DVD and VHS Player; High-Speed Starlink WIFI; Games; Luxury Gas Log Fireplace; Propane BBQ Grill; Horseshoes, Ladder and Washer Games; and Screened Gazebo.

If our calendar is full - please check out our sister cabin, the "Gold Fox Lodge", just 3 miles away. VRBO 4168572

Piece of Heaven

We absolutely loved our stay at the Copper Fox Lodge. It is even more beautiful than the pictures. Jeff is an amazing host and ensures you are happy with your stay. It’s all in the little details that you know they care. The wildlife is incredible and the view of the river is spectacular. This is an amazing place for some much needed rest and relaxation. We definitely hope to be back soon!

This cabin is the perfect place for us!!

Other than the furniture in the gazebo being covered in thick dust, the cabin was very clean and well provided for visitors. The cabin does NOT have a washer and dryer, but there is a Laundramat in Luzerne . . . 4 miles away. Firewood was pre-cut for us, so that was a time and effort saver. We discovered a nice restaurantbar called the Lost Sky Ranch and will go there again. We “WILL BE BACK”.

Opening Trout Weekend

WOW! What a perfect place! Cleanest place I’ve stayed. Well equipped with amenities and the owners gave us tips on where to fish and what to use. Weather ended up not being good for fly fishing as it was cold and windy but we enjoyed the property and had fun fishing! We will definitely be back to the Copper Fox Lodge and we also will check out your other property, Gold Fox Lodge too as that looks just as fabulous.

Perfect Winter or anytime Getaway!

My wife and I live in the Arizona desert and we were craving a cozy winter getaway. Copper Fox Lodge was exactly what we were looking for. Online pics are great and provide you exactly what to expect. The home is located about 25 minutes drive from Grayling which is a good place to stock up on food. The owner has provided a kitchen fully loaded with every item needed to prepare your own meals. We enjoyed walking around the property and appreciated he had the entry road completely snow plowed prior to our arrival. And you do get snow! Loved the experience and hope to visit in the summer for a comparison of seasons. This was a 5 star experience!
