Tucked onto 2.3 wooded acres wrapped by the Thunder Bay River, this 5,100 sq ft riverfront lodge is a rare find: a true peninsula that gives your whole group the run of the water and total privacy. With 6 bedrooms plus a massive bunk room, 6.5 baths, and comfortable sleeping for 21, it's built for the reunion, the retreat, the wedding weekend, or the fishing trip everyone talks about for years.
Room to spread out and room to come together Three separate living rooms and two dining areas mean no one's ever on top of each other. Gather around the gas fireplace, settle in for a movie and video games, or drift out to the large deck overlooking the river. Below it, a shaded patio; off the kitchen, a side patio with the grill fired up and ready.
Sleeping arrangements (comfortable for 21):
4 King bedrooms each with its own private ensuite & TV 1 King bedroom with a private half-bath & TV 1 Queen bedroom with TV Huge bunk room — 3 Queen beds + twin bunks - These are adult bunk beds Plus 2 full shared baths for everyone else 550 feet of River Frontage on Thunder Bay River Horse Pit Tetherball Three living rooms plus a bonus sitting room Large deck and patios and firepit
The Thunder Bay River is slow moving and glassy perfect for lazy paddles and genuinely excellent fishing for bass, pike, and panfish. We provide 8 kayaks, so the whole crew can hit the water at once. Back on shore, gather around the firepit as the sun goes down, or keep the friendly competition going with tetherball and a horseshoe pit.

The property was beautiful both inside and outside. Rooms were clean and very well-appointed. Kayaks were a pleasant bonus. The check-in instructions were detailed and helpful. We also used the firepit which was nice. The location is ideal, close to Upper Peninsula, Sleeping Bear dunes and Mackinac Island. I would recommend this cabin to friends and family and stay here again.
