Loved the cabin, it was really cozy and relaxing. Plenty of firewood to burn in the fireplace was provided making this winter stay even more cozy. I would definitely book this place again and probably will again the same time next year and possibly during the summer months.

Loved, all the well maintained trails, right on the property! The cabin was well equipped with everything you need. Great outdoor space. We had a fire in the fire pit. Row boats were provided, and we caught a couple of nice sized bass, catch and release, of course. Very enjoyable.

About the host

Hosted by Derek

Host profile image
The Detweiler's moved on the family farm in 1965. The Chalet was built in 1976 on the 23 acres of woods on the farm. Ruel and Sara Detweiler are now retired. Our family has recently started to manage the property with our main goal being to keep everything like Ruel and Sara managed it. Our family has been coming to the Detweiler's cabins since 1982; hunting, fishing and enjoying nature. We have so many fond memories of our times spent here and we know that many other families have similar cherished memories here. That's what makes this place so special to so many.

Why they chose this property

This is a beautiful place to enjoy all four seasons. In the spring, maple syrup is made from trees on the property, wild flowers, and mushrooms abound in the area. Spring is a good time to view deer, turkey, and migrating birds. Summer is family time for hiking, fishing, swimming, or basking in the Michigan sun. There is time for day trips to Mackinaw Island, or Light Houses along the shore. In the fall, the autumn colors are some of the best in the state. Winter snow and frozen lakes bring joy to skiers, snowmobilers, and ice fisherman. This is also time to enjoy a good book by the crackling fireplace.

What makes this property unique

The Chalet cottage is unique with its fantastic views of the water from the living room and breakfast area. The dishwasher and wood burning fireplace are new to the Chalet this year. The best thing that many enjoy, is the privacy and away- from- it- all feeling that you have when you stay here.
