About this property

Hidden Gem in Wilderness of The Upper Peninsula of Michigan (Camp Flapjack)

Snuggle up by the cozy wood stove, or gather around the fire pit and watch the waves roll by on Lake Michigan at our secluded beachfront cabin in the woods. Located a quarter mile from the historic Seul Choix Point Lighthouse. The open floor plan with loft has that rustic feel that you look for in a vacation spot, and boasts a view of the lake that can't be beat. Being the only residence on our road, there is plenty of peace and quiet, with a short drive to grocery stores and supplies in Manistique, MI.
During your stay you can enjoy many attractions that the Upper Peninsula has to offer including:
The Seul Choix Point Light house (giftshop, tour, and boat launch)
Seney Wildlife Refuge
Big Springs (kitch-itti-kippi) in Palms Book State Park (just west of Manistique
Pictured Rocks National Park on Lake Superior in Munising ( about an hour)
Tahquamenon Falls
Mackinaw Island or City (approximately 1 and 1/4 hours away)
Two inland lakes just 5 miles from the cabin.

When the weather is uncooperative the Kewadin Casino (and restaurant) is 18 minutes away from the cabin. The casino is right across the road from Treasure City which is a great shop for souvenirs

WOW

A great up north getaway yet close to the necessities. The cabin has all the items needed for a relaxing vacation.Very secluded on a two track with no neighbors other than wildlife. The front porch is 100ft. from Lake Michigan and 50ft. from the fire pit. A true hidden treasure in the U.P.

Relaxing getaway with a beautiful view!

Beautiful log home providing everything we could need and more. Well situated to enjoy great UP sites, but private, quiet and completely relaxing when staying at cabin. Plenty of firewood, great beach views and not far from Manistique, Seney, even made a rrip to Grand Marais to look for Yooperlites! 5 stars from all 4 of us!!

Very quiet little cottage on the lake

The home is cutely decorated in a nautical theme. It sits right on the lake with a view of the lighthouse. It was a lot of fun to watch the hummingbirds buzz around the feeder. They really didn’t mind us being there at all. There was also a friendly rabbit living under the deck that would come out in the late afternoon. Please note there is no internet and very spotty cellular coverage. Most days I had no phone coverage at all. If you want some time off the grid this is the place to be. A limited amount of cell phone coverage can be found if you drive up to the lighthouse parking lot (at least durning the day). Lovely views and a nice place to unwind.

Lake Michigan

This property would have five stars if it were not for the smell of the water. We used bottled water to cook and drink having said that we did enjoy our stay. The view from the cabin is beautiful and the fire pit is a definite plus.

Beautiful and secluded lakefront get away

We were smitten as soon as we walked to the front of this sweet cabin. Located right on Lake Michigan this vacation property offered beautiful views of the sunrise as well as of the lighthouse "around the corner". The cabin was comfortable, attractively decorated and had everything we needed. As a home cook, I especially enjoyed the gas oven/range, and we also made use of the gas grill. This place definitely checked all our boxes: location, fire pit, grill, decor, and pet friendly. Our three year old golden enjoyed exploring the beach. We'd love to make a return visit!

Secluded paradise in the UP

The setting of this cabin couldn’t be better, it’s secluded and private, without anyone else in sight. Close to the Seul Choix light house (part of the beautiful view) and lots of other very cool things to see and do. My kids and I made day trips to Kitchitikipi, Fayette State Park, Pictured Rocks, and white water rafting on the Menominee River. Our hosts were great with communication, the cabin was clean and homey and stocked with the necessities for cooking. The kids loved the loft area, where they could be on their own a bit, and there are three comfy beds. On a side note- the water in front of the cabin is shallow and rocky, great if you just want to wade- or have little ones, but bring water shoes. If you want to swim, there is a beautiful beach within ten minutes, which the owners were kind enough to direct us to. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Secluded Gem on the Lake

Well maintained and impeccably clean, Camp Flapjack was a dream for our family trip. Day trips to Marquette, Pictured Rocks, Mackinac Island and the Seney Wildlife Refuge are easy drives from here. Thoughtful hosts made the cabin a joy to stay in. We had everything we needed for our family of 5 plus dog. Kids loved playing on the beach and looking for fossils which are plentiful. The water is clear and beautiful. We loved daily birding walks and searching for beach glass. The Seul Choix Lighthouse is an easy walk down the road, and is supposedly haunted- which the kids loved. Camp Flapjack is a great place to stay in our beautiful Upper Peninsula!!

Unplug and relax

We had a great stay at Camp Flapjack! We made several day trips to family favorite and new stops within about an hour drive from the property. We enjoyed watching the lake freighters, taking walks to the lighthouse, skipping rocks on the beach and we even squeezed in a couple of campfires with kids that weren't too tired out from our activities. It was great to see the kids free from screens and schedules, just being kids again. We needed a getaway, and we got just what we needed at Camp Flapjack.

I stayed at the cabin for four days, using it as a home base for grouse hunting.

Perfect location and amenities for use as a fall hunting base camp. Gorgeous views from the back porch and a good Variety of grouse hunting opportunities 20-60 minute drives from the property. The cabin was extremely clean and really nicer than I needed for a hunt camp but a welcome luxury to come back to each evening to kick back and relax and recharge for the next day. Would also be a great summer rental, or a nice place to stay for a fall color tour. The cabin and grounds were nice enough that you would never even have to leave the property and still have a wonderful time.

Secluded, Beautiful views and cabin

Camp Flapjack was the perfect get UP get away. Bonfires on the lake most nights with nothing but the sound of the lake around you. Completely secluded. The sunrises were my favorite part. We would get up early just to go sit on the shell beach and watch the sun come up with tea and coffee in hand. We brought water shoes and waded around the lake around the cabin searching for fossils. It was awesome. The cabin is perfectly cozy and perfectly clean, we fell in love the second we drove up. It’s a short drive to town if you need anything and a short walk to the Seul Choix point lighthouse which was so cool. The location itself, is just so relaxing - almost completely surrounded by water. Highly recommend if you are looking for a secluded, quiet and relaxing getaway from the fast pace of life.

Relaxing and tranquil vacation

This secluded cabin was the perfect spot for our family getaway. Loved that it was right on the water and it was private. We watched the freighters go by and there was plenty of wildlife. The cabin is updated with Dish TV, beautiful bathroom, and great kitchen appliances. We had everything we needed for a peaceful stay in the U.P.

Perfect way to experience the UP.

A lovely, secluded cabin in the woods right on Lake Michigan. With all of the modern conveniences, and close enough to town (15-minute drive) in case you forgot anything, the cabin offers an opportunity to escape the hectic pace of the digital world for a week of wonderful sunrises, campfires on the lakeshore, and all the sounds of nature. It is also within easy driving distance of some of the UP's most popular attractions which makes this a place to relax or use as a home base for visits throughout the UP. Communication with the host was excellent, and I would highly recommend a stay here - especially if you are looking to disconnect from the internet for a bit. And if you really need to check email, a quick visit to a roadside/boardwalk park in Manistique will be all you need - or so I have heard... Thanks Mike
