About this property

Bear Den-Secluded 2 Bedroom Cabin Located in the Hiawatha National Forest.

Welcome to the middle of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Hiawatha National Forest. This newly remodeled cabin can sleep 5 comfortably with two bedrooms; one with a queen bed, the other a bunk with full and twin size beds, one full bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen to start your day off with a coffee and make any meal of the day, as well as a living room complete with a working fireplace and television with dvd player. Behind the home you will find a firepit and a picnic table, roast marshmallows and enjoy the view of the lake. In front of the home there is a standing charcoal grill for guests to use. This cabin is located between Munising and Grand Marais on the scenic drive of H-58 along the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore as well as being located on the ATV and Snowmobile Trails so you can leave right from the cabin. There is parking in the driveway for trailers but no room to turn around so you would have to back in or out. However, we do have the bottom of the driveway plowed out as well for easier trailer parking.
Hike around and see the sites all day then come home to your own cabin in the woods where you can grill out on the deck overlooking the lake and roast marshmallows over the bonfire listening to the loons at night. Please note **This cabin is located in the Hiawatha National Forest, in the woods, where there are animals and critters. You may see a mouse or a spider in the cabin during your stay. We do everything we can to disinfect, clean and prevent any critters from accessing the cabin. However, we cannot guarantee Mickey Mouse won't peak around the corner and say hello. Also, a new water filtration system has been installed. It reprograms/flushes every 500 gallons which can be very loud and disturbing for about an hour.

***There is a doorbell camera mounted at the entryway outside.

***Door code will be released the day of check-in for security purposes.

***If you are booking through Airbnb or VRBO you will receive a separate contract from Pictured Rocks Vacation Rentals. In order to receive check-in information you will be required to sign this.

Wilderness Retreat

We were looking for a place to get away from it all and Bears Den was it. Property manager Sabrina made us very comfortable with check in, check out, and any questions we had along the way. We really appreciated the purified water dispenser as the well water in this region is very heavy in iron

Very Good

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was clean and comfortable. The fireplace is the main source of heat and kept the place nice and warm. The snowmobile trails were easy to get to. It snowed a couple times during our stay and a man came and took care of clearing the snow in the driveway each time. The street it is located on did not get plowed right away by the county, so I am glad we had a 4WD truck.

Secluded property with great view of Ross Lake

Crowds avoided, nice clean house with fire pit and basic cooking amenities for meal prep. By the campfire every night, we heard the call of the American Bittern in the marshy areas. We would definitely book this property again during the off season!

Nice cabin

Check in was a breeze and we were impressed with the cleanliness of the unit and the view of the lake. The cabin is in an awesome location. However, the map listed on VRBO did not match the location that we ended up at. It was still a nice area but it was on a different lake than what showed up on the map. We were also given written directions to the cabin as the address provided wouldn’t even lead you to the correct place. This was not a huge deal but it would be nice to have an accurate location and an address you can actually follow to the cabin.

Snowmobile vacation

The home was very clean and well put together. I loved that the fireplace was already going so the house was nice and warm when we arrived. We came for a snowmobile vacation with our kids. It was nice to come back to a warm comfy cabin after riding all day. Our only issue was that we did not consider that not all the roads are plowed. So what we thought was an 18 mile drive to Grand Marais was much longer. But that's our fault for not checking. We loved the cabin and appreciate you having us!
