River cabin review

Excellent property for our needs. Our son and his wife stayed in the Fish House to sleep then joined in with my husband and I for meals and activities. The weather turned very cold so we used the wood burning fireplace. There was firewood just outside the door which was very convenient.

Indian River Fall Weekend

This property and the amenities are ON POINT!! Love, love, love this cozy log cabin with the second building housing one bedroom and a full bath (shower). The home was immaculate. Lots of thought put into the “extras” - beach towels, noodles, puzzles, games, DVD player, etc…. The only negatives (for us) was the location near a busy intersection so we heard cars at night and we didn’t have enough hot water for showers

Family getaway

The river front location was a huge hit with the kids and the adults. Tubed down the river for about an hour (in very cold water) right to the dock in front of the property. Nice restaurants and a market very close. Easy day trips to Petosky, Cheboygan and Mackinac Island.

Fishing trip

Very clean. Fully stocked kitchen. Owner very responsive to an issue we had upon arrival. Tubes on the dock were a little misleading. They do not come with the property. The river is perfect for rental tubing

A bit of a surprise

The place is adorable and easy to find. It's very poorly lighted inside making it hard to read, do a puzzle or any handiwork. Everything in the house worked fine and it was appointed very well. The Fish House (Sturgeon Cabin???) however was small, no place to put a suitcase but the floor, very chilly with a wall heater that blows more cold air than warm and took over an hour to just take the cold down to chill. It also had minimal light so the best option was to get in bed fully dressed and go right to sleep. There was no internet. I notified the owner who responded promptly but as I am not experienced in electronics I just put on extra socks and got under all the covers. I see that the property is listed for sale. I think that might be beneficial. Thanks.

What makes this property unique

Remodeled log cabin on the Sturgeon river. Fish right off the deck or relax under the shade trees and watch the rafters go by. Walking distance to downtown Indian River. Great restaurants and shopping. Plenty of trails for biking, hiking and snow mobiles. Access Burt Lake, Mullet Lake and Crooked Lake. Such a peaceful relaxing atmosphere.
