Cozy Little Red Lodge in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula
This place is amazing! So cozy yet spacious enough to sleep 5-6. The property is located just 5 miles from the waterfront village of Curtis and just 1.9 Miles from one of the many boat launches on the South Manistique and Big Manistique lakes. There is a large yard perfect for cornhole or outdoor activities, etc. (Foot Traffic Only). There is Ample parking on the property as well as a single car garage for parking your auto or your toys. Guests should avoid parking in front of the red Pole Barn as we occasionally stop in to get supplies.
Close to the waterfont community of Curtis where there is ample parking however during major Holidays such as 4th of July, etc. it can be quite busy in town.

The Little Red Lodge was a wonderful place! We were able to enjoy the outdoor area as well as cozy up inside at times. The owners are very thoughtful and you can tell throughout all the details. We had an amazing stay and would highly recommend.
Clean property and the communication from the owner was excellent. No surprises! We were even able to check in early for a reunion. Would stay again. Thank you!

I've stayed here before and I'll stay here again and would recommend it to my friends
It is a great property to stay it's very clean and has a fire pit and wood supply right at the house.
Excellent yard and night sky viewing and convenient location to many local attractions.
Great location. Close to the little town of Curtis and Gould City. Close to an accessible ramp for our fishing boat. Perfect little get-a-way cottage. Communication with owners was very good, friendly & prompt. Small glitch with a popped breaker for hot water, very prompt & fast fix. Very nice fire pit with chairs & tables. The grill was in a good location, easy to use and nice and clean. It was really nice to grill a few meals outside. We are looking forward to another stay next year.
The property is very well maintained, and comfortably furnished. Diane was very good about keeping in touch with us. The kitchen was super well stocked, although I somehow missed the fact that there was no dishwasher. The little air conditioning units worked well when it was hot, and the house was well insulated so that it held onto the cool air. The beds were reasonably comfortable, and I was quite pleased with the quality of the bath towels. The shower was easy to figure out and provided comfortable water pressure. This was a terrific place to stay while we visited back on the island and pictured rocks. Would stay here again
This place looked exactly like the photos. It was clean and well stocked, someone even left wood stacked in the fire pit (which we happily used for a fire one night). The host, Diane, was very helpful and gave some good suggestions for local activities. We would happily stay at the Little Red Lodge again.
Loves the Little Red Lodge. The decor was amazing. Everything was there that we needed. We enjoyed relaxing in the evenings and cooking dinner on the grill. Wish we could of stayed longer. If we go back to this area again we will definitely be staying here.
The Little Red Lodge was perfect! Hosts communicated well, lodge was fully stocked with all amenities. It’s centrally located for all attractions we wanted to visit (Kitch-iti-kipi,Fayette, Whitefish Point, Tahquamenon Falls, Soo Locks and Munising. It was perfect for our Honeycation (Honeymoon/Vacation)….we couldn’t have asked for a better week!
Our stay at the Little Red Lodge was very nice. It’s such a cozy place. I love the decor. Very clean and comfortable.
The snow was a nice plus. We went to a couple of good places to eat too.
We both enjoyed our stay. We love the U.P.
Husband and I stayed here due to its central location for almost all things Upper Michigan. The home was perfect for us. The host put a lot of work in to providing all the little extras! Even though there is no cell service, the WIFI is very strong! Would stay here again 10 times over!
This property was very cozy, impressively clean, and central to many things to do. Diane and Allen were great to work with answering all our questions. They even prepared fire wood in the fire pit for us. The cottage is charming and was perfect for our family to explore the UP. Honestly this has been the best experience we’ve ever had on VRBO.
Diane and Allen were extremely helpful with everything. Any questions we had were answered very quickly. The property is in a great location and super easy to get to.

About the host
Hosted by Diane L Chamberlin
Allen and I are Entertainers / Musicians and also Music Producers. We reside in Grayling Michigan where we have a recording studio and publishing company. Additionally, we sell retail musical equipment and gear. We are very hard workers and are often so busy that we forget to stop and take a break! That's why we purchased property in the UP and later purchased The Little Red Lodge - so that we have a place to unwind. We love to fish, barbeque, and enjoy bonfires so this is basically our dream property!
Why they chose this property
The Little Red Lodge is an awesome little cabin that relaxes you the minute you walk in the door! It's so quaint and cozy. In the Spring / Summer / Fall we enjoy the yard and bonfire area and often walk the trails behind the property. We love this place and thought it would be a good idea to share it with travelers when we aren't using it!
What makes this property unique
Quiet Area, large yard, close to the many surrounding lakes and popular UP attractions!
