Very cozy and charming!

This place is awesome for a winter adventure to the U.P.! Our group of four had a blast spending New Years here. The cabin is very cozy feeling on the inside and has an eclectic layout - you can really tell a lot of craftsmanship and love went into making this place. It's also in a really nice location in Big Bay - a short walk away from Lumberjack Tavern and to hiking/XC ski trails. The kitchen was very well equipped and met our cooking needs. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very clean. And lastly, Nancy was so responsive to our questions and went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay. Thank you so much for having us and we hope to come back soon!

Perfect cozy cabin for a long weekend

While the property is a little rustic on the outside, dont let that deter you. It was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The host even brought out a nice gas grill with utensils for our use on a last minute request. The Thunderbay Inn and the Lumberjack Tavern are cool places to eat and enjoy a drink. The Crams General store family was super helpful with fishing info on Lake Independence and they carry live bait and everything one might need. The location of this property is very convenient to snowmobile trail access and is only 30 minutes to Marquette and all the bigger city attractions. Would stay here again.

About the host

Your host

We are Frank and Ida Siminski. We reside in Hawaii during the winter months and wanted to be able to share our home with visitors to our historical area while away. We keep our summer items stored away in a closet upstairs so that we can open up the whole house to our guest. We hope you enjoy our home as we do with its quaintness and peaceful surroundings. We have Property Managers very close by to assist with any questions or help during your stay. They love to share their knowledge of the area and make sure you have a perfect stay!

Why they chose this property

We are located very close to the Big Bay Pathways and snowmobile trails. The few places that are open occasionally in the winter months are walking distance from our house. With a full kitchen you can make this a nice place to also call home for your stay.

What makes this property unique

As additions have been added to this original log home we have used our artistic abilities to make it functional and a bit quirky at the same time. You will feel like you are in the country but still close to everything you may need. As an artist, you will find some of my artwork displayed in the back section of our house.
