About this property

Come rest, relax, and enjoy the sounds and sights of the Boardman River in our cozy, rustic 800 square foot cabin. Bedroom one has a queen size bed, while bedroom two offers a double bed and a twin bed. Cook meals in our efficient kitchen, or grill on the charcoal grill. Our large comfortable sofa beckons you to relax, read a book, watch birds at the feeder, or view kayakers as they paddle down the river. Free WiFi allows you to stream movies, or if you must, check emails or work remotely. Grab a book and hang in the hammock under the willow tree, and let the sound of the river gently lull you into a nap. Enjoy a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage on our deck overlooking the river. When evening comes, build a fire in the fire pit and make a few s'mores. If you're lucky, you may spot fireflies in late June or July. Deer, bunnies, birds, abound if you are quiet and observant.

When you are ready for activity, bring your own kayaks or tubes and go for a float. For a small fee, a neighbor will transport you and your vessels up or downstream. Traverse City offers many beautiful hiking trails and we are a 1/4 mile from the Boardman River Trail where you can and enjoy a hike along the river. We are eight miles from Downtown Traverse City where you can enjoy shopping, excellent restaurants, beaches, or wineries out the Old Mission Peninsula. Leelanau County is one of our favorite places to enjoy the beaches and go for hikes.

This cabin has been in our family for three generations and we have made many wonderful memories here over the years. While it is rustic, it is clean and updated with new mattresses, sheets, linens, towels, and a stove.

Relaxing Riverfront cabin getaway

Loved your cozy cabin. Perfect central location. We were able to visit wineries, go for a hike and enjoy a cozy fire next to the river. Such a nice welcome when we arrived to a basket of treats and a bottle of wine. Hosts quickly responded when we needed help getting in. Would definitely stay here again.

Secluded, wonderful cabin and great location!!!

Within thirty minutes upon entering this very charming, rustic cabin we said to each other, "oh, we're coming back here!" There are so many things to love about this place: --the central location just south of Traverse City and within easy reach of Sleeping Bear Dunes and other sites --the soothing, babbling river that runs along the property --the big, inviting fire pit in the backyard --the super comfortable patio furniture --the gorgeous, huge trees that ring the property --the urban hiking trails just down the road --the spacious living room and well-stocked kitchen --the very comfortable beds We just felt completely at home. It's very secluded--no house or people in sight, but we felt completely safe, too. It's just off a fairly well-used road (mostly during the day, so it was quiet in the evenings and at night). Although there are train tracks close to the house, there was only one very short train that rolled by in four days. Amy was wonderful to work with! She answered all our questions very quickly. She even left us a thoughtful present to celebrate a special occasion. We will definitely come back!

Perfect welcome and stay!

From the second you walk into this cabin you feel welcomed to the city! There were flowers to great us, a treat from the area and a book full of ideas to do while here. Numerous birds, squirrels and bunny’s to watch around the river and a patio to enjoy it on! Everything we needed in the kitchen was available, tons of games to play and a big table to play then on. Close to town but not the noise of the city. The hosts were terrific to work with too. A great choice for families or couples!
