About this property
Shadowland River Lodge on Boardman River - Pet Friendly - Acreage - Private
Shadowland River Lodge is located approx. 12 miles South East of downtown Traverse City. It is nestled on 33 acres of private land with 650 feet of frontage along the Boardman River. The original log home structure was built in 1929 and in later years added on to including a kitchen, dining area, full bathroom, walk-in closet, utility room, and a riverside main bedroom.
Shadowland River Lodge currently sleeps up to 6 guests with a queen bed in the one “ conventional “ bedroom with direct river views. (red bedspread) A set of “twin” size bunk beds are in the main room (red checkered) of the cabin structure along with a “double” size futon. (Cream w/ multi-color stripes)
The property has become a retreat for those looking to be a little off the beaten path of the busy hustle and bustle of Traverse City. Step back in time and enjoy the privacy and sense of nature that envelops this log home along the Boardman River. Also enjoy endless amounts of free firewood for use inside and out!
We are dog friendly - this means all dogs! (Sorry, we only allow dogs, no cats, etc.) There is no size limit. We love to have guests experience Shadowland River Lodge with their K9 family members! We see no need to charge a pet fee, so there isn’t one!

About the host
Hosted by Jason & Nicole Hulet
Nicole and I met in grade school and married in 1991 here in Traverse City. Settling down first in Leelanau County before moving into Traverse City. Nicole has been a local REALTOR® for over 25 years and with Coldwell Banker Schmidt for most of those years. She also obtained her bachelors degree from Ferris State University. She has been immersed in the Vacation Rental Management industry since her earliest of years in Glen Arbor, MI - then working for her parents at Harris Properties, Inc. She sat on the board of VRMA (Vacation Rental Management Association) in the mid 1990s. I myself earned an Associates Degree from Northwestern Michigan College and started a career in Criminal Justice in 1992 with the Leelanau County Sheriff's office up until resigning in 2005 to pursue my own local Vacation Rental Company which I still operate today. We have two daughters, Ashley and Emily, now both graduated from High School. Ashley is a recent 2019 graduate from Michigan State University (bio-medical) while Emily is in her 2nd year at Lansing Community College exploring her opportunities.
Why they chose this property
Shadowland River Lodge is a place to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city life and by that, I'm even starting to consider Traverse City - "City Life." Leave the traffic and congestion behind and find yourself on 33 acres - to yourself.
