About this cabin rental
Secluded log cabin just yards away from Lake Michigan, and bordering Manistee National Forest. 'Little Bear' cabin is nestled in a mature pine grove. Although there is no lake view from Little Bear cabin, you only have a short 250 foot walk to our other property, Big Bear lake house, here you have your own private dune on and overlooking Lake Michigan - now with access to Lake Michigan via a new set on stairs down the dune.
At the top of the dune there is a huge open yard, gazebo, and picnic area overlooking Lake Michigan! It offers spectacular views of the lake all year round, and all seasons are magnificent. The newly built stairs on the dune will take you directly to the white sand beach on Lake Michigan!
At Little Bear cabin, you have the seclusion of the forest. You can also walk directly into beautiful Manistee National Forest. The trails start a few hundred yards from your porch. This area is perfect for year round vacation fun: hiking, biking, fishing, swimming, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and is a short drive to the Little River casino.
Two bedrooms with 5 beds that sleeps 5. Your stay includes free Starlink satellite internet.
Pet friendly for house-trained, non-aggressive and well-behaved pets - max 2 pets. There is a one-time $50 pet fee per stay.
Please note: Accessing Lake Michigan is via a staircase on the high dune. Please follow safety guidelines and access at your own risk.
NEW!! If your dates are unavailable, if you are looking for a wilderness retreat, or looking for larger accommodations, please check out our sister property - River Bear Retreat - with two full bathrooms (double master layout) and sleeps 8 people on 18 acres, across from the Little Manistee River - https://www.vrbo.com/3386516 (same owners/managers/crew)

Owners were nice and thoughtful.Thought the lake access and view was in the rental backyard so was surprised.A rug (or something) was very musty and we had to keep the windows open.Bed has a big slope in middle.The peaceful beach access was lovely. As were the sunsets.

This place sounded good from what I read! But man it passed my expectations! I like forests! There’s something calming about them. And when we pulled up I was captivated. Forest all around and beach access across the street. There are neighbors but still secluded and quiet. The cabin was very clean, warm and inviting. Plenty of closet space and places to sit and relax. We didn’t make it down the stairs to beach but it sure was beautiful. We watched sunsets from the top of the bluff 2 nights in row and it was perfect.. Our hosts were very nice and gave us all the information that we needed for our stay. I wish we could have stayed longer
