About this property

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. 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.

Little Red Lodge

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.

Great base camp for exploring the UP. It was very nice after a long day of driving and site seeing, to come home to a cozy and comfortable cabin in the woods.

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!

Perfect place for base camp

We used this super cozy and sweet place to eat and rest while we explored our upper peninsula. The cabin was clean and well stocked with cooking materials, towels and linens. While there were just 2 of us this time, this cabin will easily accommodate 5 of us next time!

First trip to UP

What a wonderful cabin and great response by our hosts. Allowed us to check in a bit early and stayed in communication with us (as needed) throughout the stay. Super clean and cozy cabin was the perfect size for two adults and two HS boys. We would have no hesitation to stay here again, loved exploring the UP with this cabin as our base.

A wonderful spot in the UP

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.

Cute little lodge

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.

Classic UP cabin

About the host

Hosted by Diane L Chamberlin

Host profile image
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!
