About this property
The Pines in Christmas - Near Pictured Rocks
Pictured Rocks Family Rentals welcomes you to The Pines! Quaint lakefront cottage on Furnace Lake. It is conveniently located right off M28 in Christmas, less than 5 miles from downtown Munising, the beginning of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. There are 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Our cottage offers 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, and 2 full beds. Come up to enjoy Pictured Rocks & numerous waterfalls in the area. Only 2 blocks from Christmas ORV/snowmobile trailhead.
Central air conditioning was added to the home on the summer of 2021. The second bedroom here is a little odd, it used to be a jacuzzi tub room. The jacuzzi tub was removed, and now there is a bed in there. The room still has a toilet and sink in it. We have added a curtain to block toilet view from bed. While it is unusual, we think it is worth keeping to have an extra lavatory for larger groups. The third bedroom is a heated 4 season porch bedroom with both a queen bed and a full bed in it. We added a tankless water heater in January 2024, now there is unlimited hot water, so nobody has to dread being the last one to take a shower :) The home has a beautiful view (especially for evening sunsets!) overlooking Furnace Lake and is very quiet and peaceful. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Included with your stay is a row boat and a couple kayaks. The red outbuilding closest to the garage has some life jackets, oars, and the kayaks in it. Up to 2 dogs are allowed with preapproval, but there is a $75 non refundable pet fee that will need to be added.
Guests have full access to the home, garage, red outbuilding next to garage, and yard. The red outbuilding near the road is not available to guests.
We live nearby if you should need anything, but will not come over unless asked to. If you have any questions or concerns, please message through the app or call me if an emergency.
The neighborhood is an area of cottages and year round homes. It is quiet and private, and quiet time is from 10 pm to 8 am. The home is within walking distance to Foggy's Steakhouse, Kewadin Casino and gas station/party store. The trailhead for area ATVs/snowmobiles is only 2 blocks away and can be ridden to from home.
-Signed rental agreement and security deposit hold required for all reservations. Primary guest will need to send a picture of government issued ID and list names and ages of all other guests in their group.
-No parties or events allowed
-Quiet time is from 10 pm to 8 am
-No smoking allowed in the home, outside and in garage is ok. Please properly dispose of butts. $250 fine for smoking inside home
-There are 2 exterior audio/video recording security devices that are on 24/7, and motion activated. One faces the entry doors going into home and the garage, while the other one faces the driveway from the corner of the porch/entry door.

About the host
Hosted by Danielle Kolbus

I met my husband Kevin on a "girls" snowmobile trip in February of 2011. I was visiting from Byron in the lower peninsula and he has lived in the Munising area for most of his life. We got to know each other and fell in love via technology (Facebook and phone calls/texting). We were married on Grand Island in July 2012. After living after apart for the first 11 years of our relationship, I was finally able to move up here in March 2022. We love living near all of our properties and being able to work together to give our guests the personal attention and service they deserve. We love sharing this beautiful area with all who come to visit!
Why they chose this property
We have this property because it was included in a package deal from the previous owner of the White Pine Lodge. We love having a cute, little cottage on the water. It is the only property we have in our portfolio that has lake access, so we include couple kayaks and rowboat for guest use. We love being able to offer a heated garage for our winter enthusiasts as well as some beautiful sunsets all year long! While this property is not set up the way we would have preferred, we are trying to make the best of what we have to work with.
