About this property

Hot Tub. Trails, Trout, Turkeys and Morels.

Plenty of room to park and turn around your trucks and trailers and ride your ATV/ORV from the property. Lewiston Grade Road ORV trail is 1/4 from here. New 7 person Hot Tub. Your cozy river retreat awaits in Grayling, Michigan at this secluded and peaceful 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home on the East Branch of the Au Sable River. One king bed, three queen beds and 2 queen sleeper sofas, and a futon offer enough space for family and friends to gather for a time of fun, adventure and relaxation. In addition to all that Northern Michigan has to offer, you are in the heart of "river country" with world-renowned trout fishing on the Au Sable River as well as the near-by Manistee River. With close proximity to ORV trails there is no need to trailer your "toys" as you can ride directly from the house...and there is plenty of room for parking in the circular driveway and beyond. In addition, you are close to horse trails, snowmobile trails, hiking trails and Hartwick Pines. Additional spaces include an additional living room with a sofa bed and an office space with a futon. It's easy to see why you'll be able to unwind at our cabin...sit out on the upper deck and listen to the river rushing by. Or sit down on the lower patio, basking in the sun and watching the fish jump. So, whether you have a large group that needs a lot of space for a lot of people OR if you just need a nice, quiet getaway, this place will not disappoint! Fully stocked and ready for you to have a comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable stay!

Short but Sweet

We stayed only two nights but agreed we needed another full day to enjoy the property. We loved hearing the steady stream of water, which looked majestic because of the snow. The place was quiet and clean, and we truly enjoyed our stay!

We stayed here for our annual family vacation. The house had plenty of room for our entire party of 7 adults and 3 kids. The home is fully stocked with every comfort of home. The bonus was a high chair and stroller which came in handy. The house was very clean and and had very cute decor. We loved the river in the back yard. We did a river walk, floated on tubes and just enjoyed our private creek. The hosts were great and replied in a timing manner to any questions. Great experience.

We loved this cabin!

My wife and I loved our stay at this peaceful, spacious, woodland cabin. The property is nestled on the edge of Hartwick Pines, and we really took advantage of the walking trails around the area and took in the pretty Fall foliage. The east brach of the Au Sable River flowed through the backyard, which added a calming ambience. The inside of the cabin was very cozy and beamed with rustic flair. We will absolutely be back!

Highly recommended!! The house was great, clean, well-organized, very detail oriented (labels on everything), excellent amenities, and plenty of room for your whole family. The river in the back yard is simply amazing, a babbling brook to fall asleep to was to die for. There was plenty of space around the property for kids to run around, or to have yard games, etc. The location of the house is only 12 minutes from downtown Grayling, so getting groceries or takeout food was no problem at all. There was plenty to do outdoors as well. Not only is there a river in the back yard, you are virtually across the main road from Hartwick Pines State Forest, which has plenty of things to do with the family, including 2 small lakes with fishing platforms safe for little kids. Hartwick also has miles of hiking trail, a logging museum, and a playground for the kiddos.Again, I would highly recommend this property, and we will most definitely be staying here again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Whipple

Host profile image
We live about an hour away in Lake City, Michigan. We love everything Northern Michigan and when looking for a little getaway, we wanted something on a river, secluded and near the trails. We also desired a place that could bring people together for fun, for celebrations.
We wanted a place where family and friends can gather to encourage one another, build relationships and to make memories. We are excited for you to visit and enjoy your stay at our cabin. We want you to make yourselves at home and to ENJOY every aspect of all this beautiful place has to offer. We delight in making a warm, special and beautiful place for YOU to feel at home!

Why they chose this property

We chose this area because we fell in love with the sound of the river. We love the seclusion that this place offers. We love the space that this home and outdoor space allows for larger gatherings but yet can be quaint and secluded for a little getaway as well. We love the little town of Grayling and their love for the Au Sable and Manistee Rivers. The restaurants are fabulous and we love how friendly the town-folk are!

What makes this property unique

This property is unique in that it sits right on the East Branch of the Au Sable River. You can hear the bubbling of the river from inside the house. This property abuts State Land on two sides and the ORV trails are right outside the driveway (no need to trailer your "toys"). Plenty of parking. Plenty of outdoor space as it has an upper deck, lower patio, screened in porch and fire pit right next to the river. As far as indoor space there are three different living rooms, four bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths. Well-stocked kitchen. Gas grill out on the patio.
