Excellent Cabin & Great Location

Very nice and clean cabin on a beautiful little lake. Included all of the amenities you need, and in a very a quiet setting.Three kayaks and a paddle boat on site made for a great afternoon of paddling around.At night the kids caught a bunch of catfish off of the dock.Firewood is available just down the road as well.About a 30 min drive to Munising/pictured rocks.Would definitely recommend this place for the value.

Just Unwinding

Short stay of 4 days to unwind and do a little sightseeing in the area. The Cabin is well kept and is located on a peaceful small lake. Easy access to hiking areas. It was just my wife and myself, but plenty of room for kids/ grandkids. Highly recommend.

Beautiful and Quiet Vacation

The property is beautiful, quiet and serene. The cabin is nicely appointed. Beds were great. We enjoyed our week exploring Munising, Au Train, Marquette, Big Bay and Grand Marais. Would definitely stay again. Directions were spot on. Many thanks!

Serenity

We loved the serenity of the location, especially using the kayaks and paddle boat on the lake, and having a fire in the fire pit. It was well positioned for our day trips to Marquette and Pictured Rocks, and well appointed for our stay. Only complaints were the weakness of the wifi and a majority of the power outlets not working, plus very low mobile phone signal in the area, which created challenges with finalizing sightseeing plans and catching up on work.

Wonderful place

We absolutely loved our vacation. Beautiful location on a little lake, took the paddleboat out almost every night to watch the sunset! Almost perfect reflection in the water! The house was amazing, beds were comfy. Very clean, and loved the wood inside. Talk about seclusion, just what we needed! We will be back again!

Dirty and dusty

Not sure how this property has such great reviews. First of all the pictures are outdated. The place was dirty and really dusty. Pet hair was all over couches and stairs. No dishwasher pods. Garbage cans outside loaded with trash. Internet was super slow like dial up slow where you can’t even watch a movie. Definitely needs a deep clean but otherwise it could be a nice house with a great location.

Good Location! NO AC! Plus some other surprises.

First let me say that the location was great and, overall, I would absolutely recommend you check it out. We had a great trip. The scenery was beautiful. Would definitely return again. Everything was as expected with the following exceptions: 1. It ought to have been explicitly stated on the property page that THERE IS NO AC on the property. It's true that this amenity is not included in the list. But, considering how common it is to have AC nowadays, there should be a statement somewhere mentioning this lack. 2. The wifi was absolutely terrible and unreliable. There would be long periods of time when it stopped working altogether. 3. The cabin was very clean with the exception of the TV stand. There were dead bugs all over the it. 4. The listing mentioned that there would be paper towels, but there was only a used quarter of a roll in the cabin. There should have been more. 5. The outdoor lights on the porch didn't work and it was very disappointing. The lack of light cut our evenings short every day. 6. There were some local(?) guys who stopped by the cabin asking for a bottle opener. They were good guys and popped by again after that. We offered them some beers and they talked to us for a long while. Their visits weren't unpleasant. They was just unexpected.

We had the most relaxing time staying at Lake Effect Cabin. The house is very well maintained. It had everything we needed. The location of the house is picturesque. There are swans that live on the lake. They visited us in the morning. The host was attentive. Very quick to respond to questions. So happy to be able to bring our dog.

This is a beautiful cabin and a very peaceful Lake. There is about 5 mi of unpaved road to get there. The GPS worked pretty well but the owners were even better at letting us know how to find it. We ended up getting there after dark and did not have trouble. It's a little hard on your car to drive on the unpaved roads but it was worth it. You should also know that adds about 15 minutes to your time to get anywhere. The cabin itself is absolutely beautiful. Lots of room. There is no air conditioning and that makes sense for the upper peninsula but it has been hotter lately and the upstairs loft gets a little warm. They do provide extra fans and have ceiling fans so that makes it comfortable.

Weekend Getaway

Cute cabin on a small private lake. Pretty remote with dirt roads to get to the property. Close enough to what we wanted to do (Pictured Lakeshore) while being out of town. Clean and had most of what we needed for our stay.

Family friendly

We had a very nice stay at this beautiful cabin. Kitchen was well equipped with dishes, etc. All rooms were clean. The pedal boat and kayaks were awesome to have available. I might suggest a window AC unit for the upstairs bedroom. Even with fans, it was really hot and uncomfortable sleeping. In cooler months it probably doesn’t matter. This is located waaaaay back in the woods, and 30 minutes from Munising. So, don’t forget anything, because it’s too far to grab anything quickly. The upside is it’s peaceful, serene, and really beautiful!

All Pictured Rocks could offer and a beautiful place to stay

Your on a lake, it can sleep 8 - all Queen beds, we had 4 people so we all got our own bed. Lake view is beautiful, cabin is comfortable. It has one bathroom and is 20 min from the closest paved road but we would stay there again. Very peaceful setting.
