Place was perfect for unplugging and relaxing. We did take our own propane camping sized grill to grill outside on instead of messing with charcoal. We also brought small rechargeable camping fans to circulate some air at night when sleeping. Although we could purchase firewood from the host we took some of our own and ended up being all we needed. We spent 5 nights- 2 adults. The host was a great communicator and checked in on us by text during our stay. Would definitely stay again in the future!

Vacation 7/2023

Really enjoyed our time at the cabin. Very peaceful and had a great time fishing. Close to all our excursions and still felt secluded. Our 2 yo son loved picking the wild blueberries and fishing from the dock.

Wonderful Cabin Get Away

We loved the cabin and the setting on the lake. It was a great time to unplug and have family time. The owners are very responsive to messages and willing to help. We are very glad we decided to stay here, despite an initial hesitation about not having electricity. The gas lights and stove/refrigerator were great. The boats were great that come with the cabin to enjoy time on the lake!

Relaxing Getaway!

Great place for a family vacation away from all the craziness of life! We loved the secluded location, just far enough away, but still close to general stores for any necessities. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The kids never got bored. Fishing and sight seeing were great! A bald eagle flew right by my son! Very peaceful place to reconnect with family. The property owner was in touch to check if we needed anything and was very helpful! We are already planning our next trip back 😊

Clean quiet secluded location near Munising

Great communication with owners. Very clean comfy house. The upstairs gets a little steamy at night in the summer months but overall a great experience. Don’t let the composting toilet worry you you will miss out on a great experience. We loved the screened in patio and the use of kayaks and a row boat on the lake. Kitchen is well equipped, we cooked every night . Swimming beach right down the road. We would rent again if in the area.

Baldy Lake Cabin

From start to finish we had an incredible vaca on Baldy Lake! The owners were readily available from the time of sign up till refund check was issued. We fished, we hiked, we found Yooperlites, went sightseeing and just had a relaxing time. The cabin has pretty much everything you need. Toilet and shower were easy to use. Thank you for sharing your beloved space with us. We will be back!

Wonderful place

Really a terrific place. Just a fantastic location, quite secluded. Cabin was immaculate with all the amenities, especially for something described as rustic. Great area for bonfires, nice dock and fishing boat. Things I was concerned about before the trip were non-issues. The composting toilet was actually great, shower was super easy to use (never knew I could shower thoroughly with only 3 gallons of water!). The hand pump in the kitchen for water was a little tedious but worked flawlessly. We had plenty of "juice" in the battery powered Wifi for hopping on the internet for texts/emails. There were a few minor things that I would point out as suggestions, while still rating this property 5*. Maybe one more outdoor trash can available. Recommend purchasing either more firewood from the owner, or buying your own somewhere nearby. The $63 in wood we bought that we thought would last the week only lasted 2 nights. And if fishing is your main thing, not the best lake for it. You'll catch plenty of rock bass and crappie, but zero pike, perch or "eating fish" to be found. Still fun to catch them but we bought fresh Lake Superior fish in Munising! Again, all in all a really great place and we highly recommend it.

Remote get away

Remote is the key word but this property delivered. If I didn't want to leave I could find so many things to do but it was also I nice get away home to come back to after long adventure days. If you want a very private get away to have the off the grid feeling this is the place. Would stay again.

Picture Perfect!

This is a must stay! We booked the cabin for our Honeymoon and could not be happier with our decision! The cabin and entire experience exceeded our expectations! The cabin in nestled in the woods on a quiet semi private lake. It was my first time using a composting toilet, we have been doing a lot of research on "off grid" living and we were intrigued to try the toilet out. I was surprised that it has absolutely no odor, and I was expecting a bucket and saw dust, however the composting toilet is really nice, we even looked up the model and made note for the future, for when we get a cabin someday! So if the toilet is something that may discourage your stay! I would urge you to give it a try! Lisa and Tom were great hosts and were available to answer any questions we had! I definitely hope to return again! My husband and I both fell in love with the cabin!

Incredible location

It was our first time in the UP and this location was just amazing. It took our breath away, pretty secluded, very peaceful, we also rented a boat which added an additional entertainment. I was pregnant at the time and underestimated the bathroom situation but other than that it was a great trip. Our 5 year old also caught a lot of fish and it was very exciting for her.
