Lovely rustic cabin on lake. Tall Pines is nestled in the woods and offers privacy and all basic amenities. If you're seeking some fishing, boating and nature, it's the perfect spot.

Our stay last week was amazing! The location was beautiful and peaceful. Communication was quick and friendly and we had everything we needed plus some. Everything was very clean and organized. Although we did a few day trips, we enjoyed spending time at the cabin fishing and relaxing the most. We will definitely book again!

Rustic vacation in National Forest

The cabin was everything we hoped; just secluded enough, clean, well stocked, comfortable and everthing was in working order. We especially enjoyed the deck and fishing off the dock. Host was responsive and friendly. We loved every minute of our stay.

We are out of doors people and LOVED the deck, pier, being on the lake, canoeing, and campfires. It was soooooo quiet there. It was beautiful. The cabin was quaint and rustic. Sufficient for our needs. It was a little further from Munising than anticipated but it was a beautiful drive and that’s why it was soooo quiet and peaceful. It was a great retreat. Thank you

Wonderful rustic cabin

Such a cute rustic cabin. Perfect location for visiting Munising and Pictured Rocks. We had a small kitchen sink leak and it was fixed within 30 minutes. Perfect stay. Make sure you bring plenty of bottled water because the water at the cabin is not great.

Great Family Get Away

Great time with family. Well stocked. Britta was very responsive. One recommendation: maybe post the house signage a little lower so it’s readily visible. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay! Thanks Britta.

Family getaway

We loved staying at this cozy cabin! The hosts had many amenities available for us to use and kept the place well stocked. We loved using the fishing boat and kayaks but there were also canoes for use. The hammock and deck were great places to rest and relax outside! They had wood on the property for us to use (for a small fee) which made having a bon fire easy and convenient. The bugs were not bad during our stay but I did see they had a screened in tent for use also in the sauna room, they really thought of it all!

Cute cabin

The property sits right on the lake as described tucked back in the woods. It was very clean! Britta thought of everything, she had bug spray, first aid kit, extra blankets, fans, games, etc. Anytime i thought i needed something, there it was! The kids had a blast fishing off the dock and on the pontoon. Britta was excellent to communicate with. She responded quickly to all my questions before and after booking. Great for a little family getaway.

House was exactly as depicted. Location was further from Pictured Rocks than I would choose next time, but that’s our own fault (not knowing the area). Although the house was clean, I saw a little mouse scoot behind the washing machine. It’s a rural area so no great surprise and family wasn’t bothered by it, but some traps or checking for holes might be a good idea. We put all food including dry goods in the fridge after seeing it. Communication was excellent and accurate. Sunset from the deck was lovely. No outdoor bug issues in mid/late August this year, but we came prepared for that.

Great getaway!

Property was clean and supplied. It is close to Munising and General Store is about 6 or 7 miles nearby. They have the best tasting ice cream we have ever had and so friendly! Tom and Britta are wonderful hosts. They are close by but respected our privacy and communicated promptly every time. Tall Pines cottage has a wonderful view and peaceful atmosphere, I highly recommend a stay here. Our family has cherished memories from this trip

So quiet and relaxing

While we did not have the best weather as it rained a good portion of the time we stayed, this was the perfect place for it. It was so relaxing and beautiful that we were able to sit in the chairs by the window and read or sit at the table and play games while enjoying the beauty of the rain and fog over the lake. My son loved the loft area and hanging out there, like his own little getaway. It was quiet and away from everything, yet the General Store with the friendliest staff was just 15 minutes away. The sauna house was a fun little adventure that provided entertainment of warmth followed by a little olunge into the lake in the rain - a fun experience us city folk don’t have often :) if you’re looking for a quiet, cozy little escape, this is a fantastic option!
