About this property

O Me, O Mio (Rustic Cabin near AuSable River and ORV/ATV/Snowmobile trail heads)

A rustic, permalog style cabin that is suited to accommodate up to nine. This is a cabin to help disconnect from the hustle and bustle of our chaotic lives. There is limited cell signal, no internet and no local or cable channels. The cabin is pet friendly, as I believe our pets are an extension of our families and should get to vacation with everyone rather than boarded (dogs only are allowed, see note about pets at the end of this description). Primary source of heat is a furnace. There is an electric fireplace in the living room. In the summer there is a window AC unit at the cabin and a fan for the loft (it does get hot up there).

The cabin is very close to the AuSable River where you can easily launch boats, canoes and more. The ORV trail head is just a 1/4 mile down the road. This is also the perfect cabin for nearby hunting, fishing, hiking and trail riding. Be sure to keep an eye out for an eagle or two. Also had deer tracks in the yard.

HOME SPACE:
Master bedroom has a queen bed. Living room has a 2 hide-a-beds. The loft has two full size beds. (CAUTION: There are cables that keep the roof straight in the loft on the floor. Please use caution so there are no injuries.) Room enough for 9 people. Just about everything is provided for you (linens, towels, fully stocked kitchen, etc). Not sure if I have something you need, ask me.

There is only a 20 gallon hot water heater (that means quick showers with a full house). A furnace is available for heat. It is fueled by propane. There is an electric fireplace for ambiance (please do not use this to help heat the cabin at night). A window AC unit is installed during the summer in the kitchen and a fan for the loft and one for the main floor.

CELL SIGNAL & TELEVISION:
The location of the cabin is set in the Huron National Forest and it is difficult to get any signals through the trees for WiFi and television. I have been unsuccessful at tuning in any local channels. I have opted not to have internet or cable television at this location as this is a cabin to disconnect from the world as mentioned in the description. Some cell providers do receive good signal here and you may experience great connectivity to the point emails and messages still come through. Movies and games are provided at the cabin for “rainy days” and there is plenty of nature to explore. Maps and guides are provided at the cabin for various exploration/activities that allow you to enjoy the natural habitat surrounding the cabin.

PROPERTY:
The cabin sits on under a half acre of land. There is limited space for parking multiple vehicles so I recommend carpooling as much as you can. If you are planning to bring snowmobiles in the winter, please note the property can probably accommodate one trailer. There is no actual driveway so feel free to park on the lawn but not by the sheds up front (my septic tank an the septic pipe goes through that area). There is a firepit for your use I just encourage you to please use caution and safety at all times during use and when you are done with it each night.

** PLEASE NOTE: LARGE CAMPERS AND TRAILERS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM TO MANEUVER THEM ON THE TRAILS TO THE CABIN. **

NEIGHBORHOOD:
This cabin is located in a small rural community. There are several neighbors, it is not secluded but gives that vibe. Did I mention I have the best neighbors?? Well I do! They will treat you just like part of the neighborhood and welcome you in. Please be respectful of noise level during the week as my neighbors do have to get up for work pretty early. The neighbors behind me do have two dogs who are not leashed when they are outside. Please keep an eye on your dog(s) at all times.

NOTE ABOUT PETS: I am not held responsible for any injuries or damages caused by/to your pet. Your pet is your responsibility and must be under control at all times. You must clean up after your pet. Leashes, food/water bowls, poop bags and beds are provided. Please keep your dog(s) off of the furniture. They must be crated if left alone for over an hour. Please do not bring your dog if it has any fleas or illnesses. Your dog(s) must be licensed and up to date on shots.

FEES: Again there is an additional $25 charge per guest over 6 guests (no more than 9 people at this location). There is a pet fee of $30. There is a $300 security deposit. This will be refunded upon departure if no damage has been found. If damage has been found it will be held pending investigation. Please note, if damage is found above 300.00 that amount will be due in full after a full investigation is completed. The costs of those items will be for replacement cost, not current value of the item.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband and I have been married since 2012. We have two rescue cats and a rescue dog. I love home remodeling (hubby not so much) and this was just the perfect opportunity to fix it up and give people the chance to enjoy where I grew up. I lived in Mio for 23 years of my life, moved away for several years and now I'm back. I just love the country life, so quiet and peaceful.

Why they chose this property
