The cabin was wonderful and in a very quiet location. It was in a good location for traveling between many waterfalls and trekking trails. Driving between locations was joy due to the fall foliage. We enjoyed our stay and will be putting this cabin on our return list.
The cabin was so beautiful. The inside was clean, had a quaint log cabin feel and was perfect for six adults. It had all the amenities we needed. We enjoyed the surrounding area attractions as well. Had a relaxing, beautiful week.

We had a wonderful time at Twin Lakes Lodge. The owners went above and beyond to accommodate their guests. We love the Munising area and it was a great hub to other area we repeated seeing as well as new ones. Thank you for an enjoyable stay!

Cute comfy cabin big enough for a large family! Very well stocked , private laid back. Nice area fir exploring, every you need fir home away from home!
This cabin was just as described. It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. It was close to Picture rocks cruises and to Munsing. Lots of waterfalls and hiking trails nearby. We would definitely stay again.
The owner is VERY good to work with. This was my first time renting like this so I had many questions for her, they were handled quickly and professionally. Very nice place to stay, if I ever travel back to the U.P. I will check here first.
From the moment of booking to check out communication was excellent. Cute and clean cabin in the woods. Remote yet close to so many area attractions. We went in summer but also looks like it would to be a beautiful location in winter.

The house was a nice place to stay while hiking and visiting the pictured rocks area and Marquette. The kitchen was well stocked and clean (we made several meals at the home). The house itself was very comfortable. Lisa was a great communicator. I would recommend this place to friends and stay here again.

The lodge is amazing! Very clean and well-stocked with kitchen and bath supplies. The lake was very nice. We used the row boat and paddle boat while we were there. The campfire area and seating provided for a great night of hot dogs and s’mores. This is a very quiet location.

The property was excellent! It was quiet, clean, great cabin feel, tons of little extras and had a nice fishing and swimming area we caught lot's of fish! Enjoyed the town of Munising, ship wreck cruise and Pictured Rocks. We even found a nice road side swimming area on lake Superior with a mini version of Pictured Rocks rocks that the kids could climb on and explore!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. All the appliances were in good shape and it was kept nice and clean. Loved the feel of the interior. The beds were comfy. Upon arrival communication was just right through email. Very quite and peaceful. We are not TV watchers but it was nice that cable TV was there so could watch the Packer game. Thanks Lisa
We really enjoyed the Hiawatha Hideaway cottage. Location was secluded although a little difficult to get to with the condition of the dirt roads. Check-in was a breeze and we were very close to all the beautiful scenery we wanted to experience (Pictured Rocks, beaches, waterfalls, etc..). The only aspect that was a less than expected was the swimming area on the lake at the cottage was swampy and buggy, not that great for kids. Everything else was great though and we had a fantastic time.

We appreciate the review and hope you will be back. Lots of mosquitoes this year with the wet spring we had. I hope that won't deter you from trying it again.

It was a nice place but a few complaints. Could have had a bit more thorough of a cleaning. There was some mold in the shower. Wouldn’t stop me from going again.

Hi Nicole,
Thanks for your review, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and would be happy to have you back!
That being said, I was alarmed to hear you found mold in the shower. We immediately followed up with our cleaner and found to our relief that it wasn't mold, but the wallpaper just needs to be replaced!
When you stay with us again, I just want you to know that we pride ourselves on our communication and cleanliness. Had you notified us earlier, we would have remedied the situation same day.
Take care,

The property was comfortable and clean, with nice amenities like videos and games that we could use. There was space to spread out and it was well-equipped/stocked. We liked the campfire and seating area out there. It was a more isolated location, which we knew, but the wi-fi was good as long as we were in the cabin. A few things that would have been nice to have were a dishwasher, washer & dryer, and air conditioning or better fans (we happened to stay there on a hotter and more humid week, so while A/C might not be completely necessary, some additional cooling options could have helped). The water was very iron tasting, which was noted, but we definitely had to bring our own bottled water. I personally would have preferred cotton bedsheets as they seemed to be microfiber and not as cool in the hotter weather. Overall, though, it was a nice place to stay and we had good communication with the host. We received timely and clear information for check-in.
The cabin was perfect for our vacation. It looked nicer from the outside in the pictures so we were a little worried when we first pulled up. But the inside was pretty, clean, and space was utilized well. We had 6 people; teens and adults and had plenty of space. Exactly what we were looking for.
Please note that the beach area isn't actually a beach (no sand). It is the owner's private lake access that they share with guests. There is no lake view from the cabin. The "beach" is situated right next to their home and you have to walk through their yard and any outdoor activities they may be enjoying to get to it. They are very nice, just be aware if you are planning on setting up to hang out at the "beach".... you'll be hanging out in someone's back yard, on the grass, without view of the cabin you're staying in. It could be a little awkward.
Other than that, the house was perfect. Private, comfortable, and provided all that we needed.
Property manager was very nice and in contact with us throughout our stay. Rental cabin was very comfortable and welcoming. It was nice to go to the lake and warm up by the fire pit, BBQ and relax.
