Adorable Secluded Cabin in the Woods
We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful spot. I felt like I was transported back in time to my grandparents cabin equipped with VCR and all. It’s truly off the grid with no WiFi or cell reception and it was so nice to disconnect, enjoy walking in the woods and letting the kids play by the river. We had everything we could need and the host was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent get away
Our family of six (two adults, four daughters aged 9, 13, 13 and 15) had a great stay! We will definitely come back again. Kitchen was very well equipped, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, amazing scenery and wildlife, comfy beds and we enjoyed the lack of wifi/cell signal. The owner was an thorough communicator so we knew what to expect.

Peaceful property
What a wonderful and peaceful property. The pictures do not do it justice, it is an amazing area/property, so quite and relaxing listening to the birds and the river roll by. We will definitely book this house again. Saw deer crossing the river while sitting on the wrap around deck.

Perfect getaway
My wife and I spent a snowy weekend here, and both the cabin and location were beautiful. We saw deer, hawks, ducks, and other birds. We really enjoyed the quiet retreat. 4 wheel drive was necessary in the snow, but the area was plowed and well maintained!

Underrated!
Lots of amenities included not listed (dish washer, garbage disposal, satellite TV etc.)
Full panoramic views from living room overlooking the river. Heard other people down the river but never saw anyone we did see some really big fish (wish we had brought weighters).
In the summer close to pine river and big Mainestee for those activities. Probably a pretty cool spot for a winter get away too. Would book again.

loved the solitude setting, very quiet and private
Saw plenty of trout swim by, several small animals and two bald Eagles. a bunch of Deer. Excellent stay- this was a repeat location for us and didn't disappoint. Could use a matrices upgrade, that was the common complaint- bed wasn't comfortable.

In The Woods
This cabin was amazing and definitely in the woods.River was relaxing we seen fish traveling upstream daily.Seen deer right in the driveway a few days so many variety of birds.If you want peace and quiet and be in the middle of the woods this is for you. Floor to ceiling windows gave a beautiful view of outside. Would love to return next year.
