The cabin was a wonderful surprise. The property itself is certainly "off the beaten path", but well worth the drive through the woods to find it. The directions we received were great and we found the home without a problem. It was very comfortable and the host was super. She responded to the power outage immediately and I would recommend the home if you need a place in the area.

The house was very nice and clean and had basically everything you need for a nice stay. The yard is large and secluded with easy access for trailering. I had no issues with my 16ft utility trailer but an enclosed may brush a few branches. To say the trails are close is an uderstatement as you drive a short distance on them to get to the cabin. DO NOT try and access the cabin off GPS / mapquest etc that route leads to a closed road be sure to follow the owners directions or you will be reversing a long long way down a one lane wooded road. As for the town it has a nice party store and thats it otherwise its a 40 minute round trip to Hale and back.Communication with the host was great as well. They sent me everything I needed to know about 2 days ahead of the trip. Hope you enjoy your stay as mucg as we did.

Thank you so much for the great review and for mentioning the directions. It really helps others understand just how wonky the GPS directions can be. We are so grateful you chose Butler Trail Hideaway and look forward to your name coming across the reservation list. You left the place in great shape and we really appreciate it. 5 star guests you are!

The perfect spot

This was the perfect house for us to 'base-camp' out of while we were in the area exploring the waterways of the Huron National Forest. Hope we can stay here again soon!

Will stay here again, perfect location for trial riding.

Location was great besides absolutely no cell service. So when we lost power after the storm on Saturday it was impossible to be able to contact the owner to get a generator to the property. House was very clean and set up very well. Over all very nice place to stay for the weekend.

Summer Fun

The cabin is very nice & met all of our expectations! It’s quiet and off the beaten path although it’s best suited for off road adventures, it’s close enough for fishing on Long Lake or Jose Lake and kayaking the Au Sable from Mio. Hiking trails galore and Lumberman’s Monument as well. Thank You!!
