Buckwild Cabin; Au Sable river/Kirtland Warbler/BullGap/Wolf Creek/UTV/Kayaking

BuckWild cabin. Within hiking distance of Au Sable River with it's world class waters and Quality fishing trophy rainbow and brown trout / Hunting/ Canoeing and Kayaking/ BullGap ORV/ UTV/ Hiking/ Biking/ Wolf Creek frontage/ Birding -- famous Kirtland's Warbler spring/summer nesting and yes they are real. Authentic Rustic Cedar Log -PermaLog Cabin. Very peaceful cedar and pine private acreage. Large campfire pit. BuckWild IS EXTREMELY rustic...NO HEAT and NO AC other than a small space heater and a box fan provided. bring the woollies Just in case... Also note there is a pet fee....and this is a dog friendly cabin. So sorry ....but cats are not allowed. Fireplace is beautiful, and is fully operational. Enough wood is supplied for 1 fire per day. We are still improving the fireplace from inside out and top to bottom. I also post a video for you to view with your own eyes..... https://youtu.be/BISICwXF8eM

a new addition! Da Bear has been sighted in yard....watch this video. https://youtu.be/bYB_1X4ZLwY This authentic permalog cabin is as close to nature as you get short of sleeping in a tent yet still has a brand new modern hot shower and full kitchen.

If you like the critters of the forest...you are in luck! lots of turkeys/squirrels/deer/porcupine/100 different kinds of birds/even the healthy dose of bugs( pro tip: bring your best DEET product...you will thank me later) and there are even bats...I swear they don't attack people. More rare is BigFoot and the elusive chupacabras. legendary beasts to be sure and they are kid friendly. So be ready to explore these mysteries and legends and be immersed into everything this natural wonder has to offer... The HMNF (Huron Manistee National Forest) is literally just several steps out the door

All new for 2023: brand new and expanded bathroom. No more dingey standup shower stall. 32x60 shower with modern fixtures and new oak floor. It is fabulous and far more spacious for your most discerning guests. And yes the 18 gallon water heater was trashed in favor of a gas fired on demand whole house unit....enabling us to utilize a future antique clawfoot tub (hopefully by spring 2026. as of today's date this tub is still on the drawing board) in addition to an unlimited supply of the best northern Michigan hot water in both the tub and shower simultaneously if desired. I promise this shower is, hands down, the best one in town. No more 3 to 5 minute showers. Anticipation!

New for 2024. joining the modern Era in a small way.....added a smart TV for those wanting to stream. wifi is online. also updating kitchen countertop and sink... wait til you see this splashy update.

all new for 2025. Fido deserves to be pampered too. on arrival fido will find his very own box of treats sheets and blankets. maybe even a toy or two. message for Fido…Fido, please ask mom or dad to show you how the sheets and blankets work. these are for you only to leave your paw prints. enjoy your stay here at BuckWild.

Additional note....please be accurate on reservations. The 150 per night (min stay is 2 nights) is for 2 persons. All additional persons are 40 each per night. And the one dog fee is additional as well. and ...I hate that I must state this.... but for example... if you reserve for 4 persons....showing up with 9 people staying on-site will incur an additional charge that is payable before access is given. Know that I do not condone attempts to sneak in what I call stowaways. THIS applies to both extra persons and dogs. Doing so is grounds for denial of access without refund. I will be merciless at my discretion.

Additionally, The indoor space is protected by a very fancy smart wifi connected smoke and CO2 detector for your safety. Security is provided via 7 outdoor cameras placed strategically around my 3 acres to protect not only your vehicles and property...but also my own things at my neighboring cabin where I reside.

Cabin access is easy. instructions provided prior to arrival via both text and email. We are also easily accessible by phone text or. email. I am often living at my home next door to the cabin which you are renting should you need anything at all in a hurry. Again, we are often there on-site in next door cabin where I live. Stop by to say hello. Welcome to BuckWild
