About this property

The Loon cabin is bright and airy, yet very cozy. It will sleep 2 persons on a queen sofa sleeper with full depth mattress. The kitchen has a gas range and refrigerator; Includes coffee pot, kitchen utensils, pots, pans, dishes, and silverware, and propane heat to keep the cabin snug. There is a bathroom with vanity and shower but no indoor toilet. It does have a new, clean, privy outside the door.
Picture yourself sitting in your living area in front of a wall of windows just feet from the lake’s edge. Open the windows to the call of, (you guessed it!), our resident loons in summer. If you’re lucky you might be able to observe them raising a young one. This cabin is ideal for a romantic getaway, or an artist’s working retreat.

Beautiful views for a secluded getaway

If you’re looking to unplug and relax with a beautiful view, this is a great spot. The cabin is small, but the view of the lake is really lovely. Our dog loved roaming around the property, and we enjoyed some fantastic hiking, kayaking and relaxing by the lake. The shared campfire area was nice as well. Steve was a great host—he was welcoming and a great resource for information about the area and things to do.

Fantastic, thank you!

We stayed in mid-May 2021 for my birthday. We are avid ATV-ers and this resort was perfect for us. At the end of the day, we enjoyed a hot shower and the ability to clean up, relax and sit by the lake. Very nice facility and owner is very helpful and friendly. We will be back during off-season again!

About the host

Hosted by Steve Bronner

Our involvement with the area began about fourteen years ago when one of us began indulging a need to run sled dogs that developed into an ongoing interest, as well as added canine members to our family over the years.
We dreamed off and on over the years of owning a place in the Upper Peninsula in the area of Culhane Lake, but the right place and the right time hadn’t presented. It was a time to for us to visit, love the area, but also have to leave for home after each wonderful trip.
A few years back a musher friend passed away, and we went to look at his former lodge. The spot wasn’t quite right for us, but the realtor told us that Culhane Lake Resort was on the market, and worth a look.
This little hamlet of cabins had clearly seen a lot of life, and needed some work, but as we looked through the trees out to the lake we only saw wonderful possibilities to finally have our own retreat in the upper peninsula.
We didn’t have to think about it very long, since by the time we made it to nearby Newberry we decided to stop off and make an offer.

Why they chose this property

Families, artists, writers, and mushers have been coming to Culhane Lake Resort to escape everyday life, and experience the wild beauty of the Lake Superior’s coastline and the surrounding area for generations - we would love to be your hosts to begin making this experience a tradition of your own!
