Weatherwood is a charming and exquisite luxury log cabin located in a gorgeous wooded setting along a crisp, clear, and sandy little creek. Only 8 minutes from Crystal Mountain and it is strikingly peaceful and quiet in the area! The cabin features many modern luxuries including an indoor sauna, huge wood fireplace, central AC, outdoor bonfire ring, wooden swing overlooking the creek, wrap-round deck with screening, family games, high-speed Wi-Fi, and over 4000 square feet of space!
(1) There are a number of stuffed animal heads on the walls. If this is an issue, then we would advise that you rent a different property.
(2) Both of the bedrooms on the lower level have glass panel doors, but they have thick curtains on them for excellent privacy.
The cabin is located in a rural, partially-wooded area outside of Copemish, Michigan. It is VERY peaceful, serene, and quiet at the property. There are not many homes in the immediate area, but the homes in the area do vary significantly in terms of size and value.
The home is in a great location for exploring northern Michigan! First of all, it is only 4.9 miles (less than a 10-minute drive) from Crystal Mountain Resort! With the indoor sauna, the huge wood fireplace, lots of space, and the year-round natural beauty of the immediate area, the home serves as a great location for a ski trip to Crystal Mountain! Note that Crystal Mountain also has golf and lots of year-round activities, including both indoor and outdoor pools and a spa that is open to the public! In terms of golf, note that the cabin is also just 20.4 miles (less than a 30-minute drive) from Arcadia Bluffs Golf Course.
The home is also close to a number of other great northern Michigan destinations including:
* Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore
* Lake Michigan
* Crystal Lake
* the charming beach towns of Manistee, Onekama, Arcadia, Frankfort, and Beulah
* Traverse City
The layout out the home is such that there is one bedroom on the main floor and two bedrooms on the lower level. The second floor consists of a large loft area that sleeps 8 adults! There is a full bathroom on each of the 3 levels. The sauna and the laundry room are both on the main floor. The wrap-around deck is also on the main floor. There is a dining area on both the main floor as well as in the lower level. The home also has a large and beautiful wood fireplace on the main floor that guests are welcome to use.
There is a large den and entertainment area on the lower level. This area includes a sectional sofa, television, bar area, dining table, shuffleboard game, foosball game, and a mini arcade Pac-Man video game, which all provides for great family fun! There is also a futon and a large television in the loft area. Thus, there are large televisions with live streaming and Roku on each of the 3 floors and plenty of room for individuals to find their own private space or else gather together. The home is very comfortable year-round with both central air conditioning for the summer as well as a natural gas forced-air furnace for the winter.
Outside, the home is beautifully landscaped including new apple trees that have been recently planted. First Creek is close to the property and it's quite clear, sandy, and shallow, so it's super fun and safe for kids of walking age and above! The area is very private, quiet, and serene with a long paved driveway separating the house from the main road and there's also very little traffic on the main road.
It is highly recommended that guests have their own vehicle!
