Private, lovely neighborhood. A great place for outdoor enthusiasts, families & friends or if you’re looking for a river escape in Northern Lower Michigan. One of the first homes on the main branch of the iconic AuSable River. 1 acre of property that is beautiful in every season.

What makes this property unique
-This property has a great swimming hole! For 74 years it has been in our family and we haven't shared it much... now we are offering a chance for others to try it out and fall in love with it as well! There is also a much loved sand bar to lounge in beach chairs, or build sandcastles on, during the hot summers months. This property is great place to throw in kayaks, tubes, a fishing line, or simply enjoy the beautiful, well maintained yard that our family has spent over 70+ years tending to with loving care.
-The home rests on an acre of land and across the road are miles of state land to hike, bike, snowshoe, ski, or snowmobile!
-The quaint town of Frederic is within walking/biking distance of this property. Frederic has two bar/restaurants, a gas station, and a Dollar General. Larger town of Grayling is about 10 minutes away or Gaylord-20minutes.
- Feel free to check out our guest reviews for more insights, or message the host with questions.
