About this property

Secluded lakeside Cottage in the heart of National Forest- down UP back roads.

Classic Cottage on a unique peninsula of Thunder Lake- with a bunk house! So much to see and do: Near Munising to go see Pic. Rocks Lakeshore (28 miles) and the waterfalls but also near Manistique to visit Big Springs (aka Kitchiti-kippi) a must see and it only approx. 10 miles and Fayette State park. The Indian River is near and is a local favorite for canoeing or kayaking. Swim, fish, boat or lounge near the lake. Vacation of a lifetime. You will need several days to do everything there is to do.
Centrally located, Thunder Lake is in the heart of the Hiawatha National Forest, offering plenty of opportunities for those outdoor enthusiasts along with many other inland lakes for fishing, boating, hunting or swimming in the summer months. This cottage (also known as Camp Thunder Buck Too ) is on the peninsula directly across from public boat launch. Bring your own fishing boat if you like. Located within miles of Kitchiti-Kippi, Lake Michigan, the Indian River for canoeing/kayaking or travel 35 miles north to the Pictured Rocks to take a ride on the boat cruises, spend the day chasing waterfalls or hang out on the beach of Lake Superior. So much to do.... U.P dirt roads and secluded back roads with limited phone service to get access to property... be prepared for that. -Adventure awaits! Download maps ahead of time and follow the 2 track to the end of the peninsula. Cottage is on the RT hand side. Small Fishing boat provided as well as 3 kayaks canoe and paddleboard. Thunder Lake. The lake is 350 acres. Typical Fish Species Available: Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Walleye, Yellow Perch Bait: Worms, Minnows, Artificial.

Thunder Lake Chill out.
This rusty cabin was very well appointed. If you plan on cooking there are plenty of spices to make any dish. It was very comfortable and I like having the bunk house. The use of all the boats and and fire wood made it very much worth the price. We built fires the last three nights. Oh and wifi work great

Wonderful rental house!
We loved staying at this house right on the water! It’s definitely off the beaten path but a very great place to stay with family and get away from it all. Would highly recommend!

Exactly what we were looking for.
Nice cabins for plenty of people. We have a decent sized family. 2 young kids, 2 teens, 2 adults then my wife’s elderly aunt. Plenty of room. Kids loved the bunks in the smaller cabin. Nice shed to keep stuff dry during rainy weather and plenty of fire wood for cooking meals. Very pleased overall. GPS directions were bad for getting there but a good ol map is the way to go.
