My husband and I stayed for a week at this cabin. It was everything we wanted and more. The bed was comfy, the views spectacular but most of all, very clean. We had everything we needed.
The cabin was as listed. Loved the lake views and pulling out the kayaks and being on the water. Was close proximity to Munising where we were able to see some beautiful waterfalls and enjoyed some great hiking. If you enjoy rail trail biking make the trip to Marquette. You won't be disappointed. The host was a text away and supplied some good info about the area.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The view of the lake is beautiful, and there is a paddleboat, canoe and kayaks available to use. It's only a15 minute drive to Munising. The sauna and outdoor fire pit were added bonuses.
We had a lovely stay at the cabin for 3 nights. The lake was stunning and we definitely had a wow factor when we arrived, with the view straight out onto the lake. The cabin had everything we needed to feel at home, including useful local recommendations.
This cabin was just about everything we had hoped for. It was clean, comfortable, very well equipped (a welcome washing machine, lots of towels and kitchen supplies, etc.). Our hostess even left us a jar of local jam. She could be contacted by phone (text) with questions after we arrived.
The cabin is right on the lake, with a small dock and several boats for us to use if we wanted. Lots of places to sit and enjoy the lake view: a screen porch, and both lawn chairs and a picnic table outside.) There were more houses around the lake than we had expected, but the other lake dwellers were pretty quiet. (except for the fireworks on the Fourth, which was an unexpected treat to watch over the lake.) The only thing we could have used is better reading lights next to the bed. Overall, a wonderful week!
We felt immediately at home upon entering this homey cabin on a quiet lake in the heart of Hiawatha Nation Forest. My wife and I loved our 4 day stay and plan to return next Spring!
If you want a getaway where there's peace and quiet, this is the place. We arrived on a nice Saturday afternoon and were amazed at how quiet everything was. No one was on the lake and we only saw 1-2 people on the road in and out all week. Loved it.
The cabin was very nice, comfortable bed, large rooms, and a great view of the lake.
The host responded quickly to any inquiry we had before the trip. Fortunately we did not need her while we were there.
The cabin was about 15 minutes from Munising so easy to get to gas station and a few restaurants.
If we ever go back to the UP, we probably won't look anywhere else. We would definitely recommend staying here.
The cabin is quaint and wonderful. The cabin is on a lake and about 15 minutes from downtown Munising, MI. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Has a fire pit, canoe, kayak, & sauna. Would definitely stay again & would recommend to family & friends!!
My husband and I spent the weekend at this cabin for our 10 year wedding anniversary. It was absolutely beautiful! The cabin had all the classic charm but with modern updates to make it very comfortable. It was an easy 15 minute drive from all the attractions in Munising. It's the perfect place to rest and recharge. I would highly recommend and would stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin by the lake. It was extremely clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. It is close enough to all the attractions in and around Munising while also being remote enough to escape the hustle and bustle. The owners are responsive and very kind. It was the perfect place to stay for our first trip to the UP and we would love to come back.
Sweet little cabin nestled in the woods and right on the lake. Several amenities including a canoe, fire pit and sauna. We were able to escape wildfire smoke and enjoy the lake from the enclosed porch. The cabin has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners were very responsive to our requests.
This is just a perfect cabin for us. It's both rustic and modernized in all the right ways. The lake view is incredible. For a Finnish Canadian like myself, the sauna and canoe are really big pluses. We had a wonderfully relaxing stay.
The attentive hosts have gone above and beyond providing a lovely location lakeside. The trees provide a screen on each side and I neither saw nor heard anyone during my stay. Great for wildlife watching and relaxing or as a base for exploring all the wonderful attractions of Munising and the rest of the UP.
Very accessible for mobility impaired visitors.
The property was well maintained with a small dock, nice sand beach with fire pit. Bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. If your looking to escape the hustle and bustle this is the place to do it!

About the host
Hosted by Lisa Dickenshied
My husband and I also live on the lake and enjoy the beauty this peaceful area has to offer. I was born and raised in Au Train Michigan and grew up on Northwoods Resort, so have a rental came naturally to me. My husband and I met here on 16 Mile Lake as his parents own a home here as well. We enjoy the outdoors and all that the upper peninsula has to offer. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
