ATV/snowmobile trails start right from the backyard. Go hiking or mountain biking, fishing or kayaking in the streams and lakes near by. The place is secluded and very quiet.

Other things to note

Cabin Getaway
This was our family’s second time staying here. We love staying here, isolated area in the woods but close to Lake Michigan. Relaxing place!

Almost perfect!
Our stay stay was almost perfect! The few things that I could list were so small that they had almost no effect the quality of our stay. There were some areas (mostly the basement) where the trim was not finished, the back deck doesn't get enough sun to dry off the lovely sectional piece out there, there was some broken pottery in the front landscaping that was broken, the lights were difficult to manage (especially the outdoor lights). The main thing that did effect our trip was that there was not enough toilet paper provided and we had to get more while we were there. We never informed the owners, so they did not have a chance to being more. The main thing to know is that we would definitely stay there again.

Nice, secluded "home base" for our extended family getaway
Privacy, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, nice fire pit. Friendly owners-- we didn't need to contact them during the stay but we had their info just in case. Our kids loved the zip line and the games and toys that were provided. Several bathrooms and bedrooms to accommodate our group of 9. Walk out basement with bedrooms downstairs worked out nicely for letting dogs out easily. Really cool, eclectic decor, lighting. A bit of a drive to go on excursions but part of the appeal was being out in the woods! We were able to drive about 40 minutes to Silver Lake, 40 minutes to Ludington.

Wonderful stay
Had a great time with family. The zipline was loved by my nephews and niece. The cabin seemed much bigger in person compared to the pictures.
