About this property

Upscale north woods Cabin in Hiawatha National Forest near Pic Rocks!Snowmobile!

Upscale forest cabin with gorgeous Hickory kitchen cabinets, all new plank flooring (no carpeting), Black stainless steel appliances, Quartz countertops, Gas range/oven, leather sofa sleeper with a thick, memory foam mattress, and chair and a half with ottoman and A/C Central Air!

Our Hideaway is non smoking and is located in the Hiawatha National Forest on FF Hwy 13. The house is nestled in beautiful pine trees for ultimate privacy.

2 forest view bedrooms on the main floor, log style Queen size beds each along with 1 bathroom with tub/shower combo - all bedding and towels are provided!

The large 3rd Bedroom is downstairs and has 1 King size Bed with memory foam mattress and 1 Double size bed with log headboards and night stands. It is attached to a large bathroom with ceramic tile floors, a vanity room with 2 sinks, and a separate, but adjacent to, shower/toilet room. The shower is large with ceramic tile on the floor and walls. The entire downstairs has beautiful tongue and groove Cedar on walls! For additional guests, there is 1 queen sofa sleeper, on the main floor with memory foam mattress (no more bar in the back!). The downstairs living room is perfect for kids to retreat after a full day of outside adventures! and NEW large couch with chaise!

The 2 car attached garage is perfect for working on sleds or keeping your ATV's or vehicles in. washer and dryer. Our full kitchen includes large refrigerator with water dispenser, microwave, dishwasher, and gas range/oven. In the evenings you can enjoy our beautiful outdoors while you cook over our charcoal grill or fire pit!

Come and enjoy the quiet sanctuary of the Hiawatha National Forest located in the Beautiful Upper Peninsula. We expect you will find our home cozy and quiet. It's a quick, short driving into Munising and Pictured Rocks area. We do allow dogs for an additional fee, No Smoking.

Enjoy your vacation at our Hiawatha's Hideaway in the SPRING. We are so close to many lakes & streams. Fish for your dinner & watch as the beauty of the Hiawatha National Forest comes to life again! The area falls at this time of year are gushing with newly released water.

Cameras are a must!!

In the SUMMER, enjoy your day biking, hiking, or sightseeing on Bruno's Run (within walking distance) and Pine Martin Run (nearby). Or, rent a canoe for a beautiful tour of The Indian River which is only a half of a mile from the house. Walk down to the general store to get an ice cream cone, or relax by a campfire in the back yard & roast marshmallows. Since you usually can't snowmobile during the summer in Alger County, bring your Four Wheelers instead!

Lake Superior is only 12 miles north, so take a beautiful Pictured Rocks Cruise; glass bottom boat ride to view fish and shipwrecks; rent a kayak or jet ski; or, shop in one of many gift shops in Munising, then you can enjoy a fine meal at one of the many local restaurants.

A trip to the Hiawatha National Forest in the FALL is a photographers dream! Highway 13, being a scenic byway, is 36 miles long and full of color in the fall and the most gorgeous anywhere! This is also the perfect time and place for hunting partridge, deer & bear! Our favorite thing to do in the fall is to hike the 2-1/2 miles out to Chapel Rock which has a full view of Lake Superior. On a warm, windy day, the waves of Lake Superior are huge, and encourage brave swimmers!

The WINTER in the Hiawatha National Forest is unbelievable! The beauty alone will blow you away, with newly fallen snow blanking pine trees creating a white tunnel throughout the forest. Snowmobiling, the biggest draw to the Upper Peninsula in the winter, is spectacular on the many miles of trails that take you through picturesque scenery you can only imagine! Whatever winter activity you might enjoy...

Snowmobile from cabin door to trails! Several ways to get to the trail system from here. Ride to Buckhorn Restaurant!

Picture-perfect place

The Hiawatha Hideaway was a hidden gem. The property was clean, well maintained, and well managed. It was a little hard to find at first because of internet issues (not the fault of the owners) but the owners did everything they could to help us navigate. Location was nice: close to Munising and Pictured Rocks, where we spent most of our time, and Hiawatha National Forest, where our (adult) kids were camping. The upper floor, though not as roomy as it appeared in the photos, was nicely refinished and modern. The basement was even more impressive, with a walk-in shower and spacious "entertainment" room for lounging. The back yard, though not completely private, felt like we were camping. Floodlights were nice for security, but made star-gazing a little tricky! The hosts were very attentive and quick to communicate with us about any issues or questions.

UP getaway

Feels secluded but isn't. 15 minutes to town (10 if you drive like me) If you like fires get your wood from the host. She left us a generous pile. Try the Baldy Shores Kayaking on the Indian River. Couple decent golf courses close by. Lake Superior & Pictured Rocks Nat'l Shoreline are also easy drives. Hiking opportunities everywhere. Hosts are great. We had a couple very minor no big deal problems we let them know about - they took care of it even though it could've waited. And yes once you're off WiFi GPS goes to sh*t.

Great house with a great locatiion

Spent a week with friends and our dogs! Even though the snow was sparse this season, we were still able to find snow on the seasonal non-plowed roads. With normal snow, the snowmobile trails would be easy to access. Hosts were great! We were welcomed with some locally made bread, jam and coffee. Nice amenities in the kitchen. We already booked for next year!

Peaceful northern woods getaway

We booked this property to explore the Munising area of the Upper Peninsula. The house is very clean and well accommodated. It is the perfect "up north" getaway. It has all of the amenities you will need even to enjoy your stay. The owners are very friendly and easy to communicate with. They provide detailed information and go the extra mile to make your visit enjoyable.

What makes this property unique

We love this area of Hwy 13, it's wooded, has lots of lakes and rivers in the area. Fishing, kayaking and swimming just down the road, yet when you need to drive into Munising, it's quick. Night fires in the fire pit out back, no street lights, so we can see the stars here at night. It's quiet and peaceful.
