Great Cabin!

Very nice, quaint “hunters” cabin. Great location. We loved the old pictures and decor. Nothing fancy but very kitschy and quiet location. Great place to sit by the fire.

Perfectly Vintage

LOVE this cabin in the woods. Perfect getaway to unplug and enjoy the scenery. The cabin is clean and has all the basics to enjoy a stay. Remote, yet close to everything. It is a perfect jumping off point for adventures around Northern Michigan. Great for couples or girls getaways. The cabin is very vintage which is exactly what we wanted. Great Stay and Wonderful host!

Respite from the heat and the city

Rustic, charming log cabin "up north". Has everything we needed. Comfortable bed, nice deck and the "bar" is a hoot. Close to services. Maybe not for everyone but we liked it.

Cute cabin. Quiet. Peaceful.

I loved my stay at this very cute and comfortable cabin in a peaceful and quiet wooded area. I was traveling with my dog, Raya, a German Shepherd mix, and she took to the place almost immediately. It is close to several places of interest…I made trips to Charlevoix, Traverse City and Elk Rapids. I loved how dog friendly Elk Rapids was…they have a very nice beach park where my dog and I played for hours, it is a nice little town to walk with my dog, and I can highly recommend Foundry Craft Grillery, as it has great food & drink and the staff doted on Raya (they allow dogs on the patio). Raya and I enjoyed our stay at the cabin very much! Communication was excellent! It all the amenities, it is very clean, and a convenient location. I would definitely stay here again!

cabin in the woods

This old cabin was very cute, very well decorated, comfortable and in a country setting. I would have to say that if you stay at this cabin, bring extra lighting or a flashlight, although there are multiple lamps it was very dark in there, day and night actually, I had to pull out my phone flashlight multiple times to go through my clothes, to find things and to play a solid game of guess who lol! We loved that you really couldn't see any neighbors from the property and that we felt like we had privacy. About a 30 min trip to TC that was easy driving which was also convenient for us.

Kitchy Cabin in The Woods

Do you want to feel like you are in a log cabin that has a real retro vibe? Well, this is it! Ernest Hemingway or Jim Harrison could have been in a cabin nearby or we could have been renting theirs as that is how it feels to enter this fantastic environment. The hunting/fishing cabin of the past meets a fashionable resort feel from long ago (with today's amenities). So many Objects D'art to look at. Stained glass, gorgeous & sometimes hilarious lamps, fun funky furniture - you name it! Not to mention the cool and cozy little spots around the house and yard. Bistro in the front, campfire pit in the back. Kitchen and dining room and an addition that was fun and functional (the bar really is something truly unique). The description and pictures are spot on. The cabin is close to so much, but far enough away to feel you are "in the woods". There is a reason Carole is a premier host, she provided all the details we needed and checked in on us to make sure we were all set. I would definitely go there again, especially because the changes in the season probably lend itself to changes in what you want to do. Give "Glambin" (Like Glamping, but with a cabin) a try!

Great Vintage Cabin in the Woods

LOVED this place! I have stayed at properties owned by Carole previous and each time it is a joy! This cabin is a bit more rustic but the decor is classic and so cute! The location is a great jumping off point for day trips to Traverse City, Grayling, etc. My only suggestions... new shower head and wifi :) We managed great with what was there, but to make it even better those would be the two improvements that would be good :)

Cozy Cabin Adventure Weekend

Carole the owner was so amazing checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. The cabin was super clean and had everything we needed. It was so uniquely decorated and quaint. The only drawback would be for privacy as the only room with walls is the bathroom, but I think you can tell that from all the pictures she has posted which are exactly like it is!! Getting ready for a woman on the tiny bathroom mirror with dim lighting can be a challenge but we made it work. Outside of that if you’re looking for a walk down memory lane with all the old fashioned decor nestled in the woods you will LOVE this place!! It’s right by a trail head so if you like to off road in the trails it’s a perfect spot too!

Charming Base for Northern Fun

We previously rented another of Carole’s properties, as part of a larger group. This trip was just my husband, dog, and myself so we opted to try this quaint cabin. It’s truly a darling space, and we were charmed the moment we walked in. All listed amenities were present, and we were happy to also find a charcoal grill (not listed) on the premises. The area is great if you’re looking to visit Traverse City or walk the NCT. We also launched some longer trips to the Manistee National Forest and Sleeping Bear Dunes (both ~50 minutes away). We would absolutely return. Only one note: if you’re bringing a dog, be aware of some outdoor mouse traps on the property - nothing is outright accessible, but if your dog (like ours) likes to sniff out rodents, best to be aware going in. We had no problems.
