A Great Place to Unplug

This was a great get away. I loved the fact that my phone didn't work. I sat by the lake every morning with my coffee and journaled while my teen slept until noon. We learned how to paddle board and had so much fun playing with our dogs and just being a family together. Often I am working a lot because i am a single mom but this vacation I was able to really be present with myself, my son and enjoy our dogs! The cabin was clean, tidy and comfortable. We stayed for a week and I could have stayed much longer. Steve is a great host. He's around to answer questions and is very helpful but doesn't hover. He taught me how to use the percolator!

Peaceful getaway

This was exactly what I was hoping for! The property was quiet and surrounded by nature and wildlife right on the lake. Steve was friendly and quick to respond to messages before my trip, and was helpful during my stay with planning local hikes and activities. It is a very remote stay, plan on no cell service or Wi-Fi. When driving there, if your gps is like mine it will say you’ve arrived but you need to go approximately another 7 miles farther down the road. Would definitely stay here again!

Great vacation

Steve was the nicest host I've ever stayed with through VRBO. The property is beautiful, and our stay was great all around. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all, and enjoy the beauty of nature.

Our stay at Culhane lake

We really enjoyed our stay. Just a few things. The water is definitely not potable. One of our party got sick the first night from the water. The out house although clean did get a bit smelly by mid week. Other than that the cabin was was very clean and the lake is beautiful. The owner Steve is very helpful and gave us lots of suggestions for day trips.

Perfect!

What a wonderful place to stay! The cabin was cozy, clean, and well-stocked with everything needed for our stay. And the location was absolutely perfect -- the proximity to hiking, Culhane Lake, and Crisp Point/Lake Superior were extremely convenient. And easy access to Tahquamenon Falls State Park. Highly recommend!

Great stay!

The property was beautiful! It felt away from it all, but we still had neighbors which made us feel at ease. Close to Tahquomenon Falls state park! The cabin was so cute! My cousin and I enjoyed a wonderful getaway! Steve was very helpful, especially when we had car trouble- he was more than willing to help us get back on the road.

In a word, heaven.

Steve has a great thing going here, and he is doing it very well. He made his presence known, and then was unobtrusive. The cabin was clean, and our late night arrival was no problem. Although we brought our own kayaks, it's nice that he has them for guest use. 10/10, we will be back.

Beautiful little lake, off the grid

Nice little cottage on a beautiful lake. Definitely for folks that want to be away from the noise, lights, etc of civilization (long drive on dirt road to get to nearest town). No light pollution at night -- beautiful stars. Loved hearing the loons and whip-poor-wills calling in the late evening.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Bronner

Host profile image
Our involvement with the area began about fourteen years ago when one of us began indulging a need to run sled dogs that developed into an ongoing interest, as well as added canine members to our family over the years.
We dreamed off and on over the years of owning a place in the Upper Peninsula in the area of Culhane Lake, but the right place and the right time hadn’t presented. It was a time to for us to visit, love the area, but also have to leave for home after each wonderful trip.
A few years back a musher friend passed away, and we went to look at his former lodge. The spot wasn’t quite right for us, but the realtor told us that Culhane Lake Resort was on the market, and worth a look.
This little hamlet of cabins had clearly seen a lot of life, and needed some work, but as we looked through the trees out to the lake we only saw wonderful possibilities to finally have our own retreat in the upper peninsula.
We didn’t have to think about it very long, since by the time we made it to nearby Newberry we decided to stop off and make an offer.

Why they chose this property

Families, artists, writers, and mushers have been coming to Culhane Lake Resort to escape everyday life, and experience the wild beauty of the Lake Superior’s coastline and the surrounding area for generations - we would love to be your hosts to begin making this experience a tradition of your own!

What makes this property unique

Escape life’s hectic pace and return to nature, it’s good for the soul!
