About this cabin rental

We do allow up to 2 dogs in this cabin. The fee is $10/dog/night.

As you walk into the Doghouse log cabin you are welcomed into a rustic space of quiet charm and classic log cabin features. This is our smallest cabin. It has a combination living room/kitchen/bedroom and a separate bathroom with a shower and toilet (shared sink in kitchenette). This allows for comfortable sleeping, plenty of relaxation in the living area along with a small fully stocked kitchenette with all the essentials. The Doghouse will accommodate 2 adults and 2 small children, or 3 adults with the queen bed and double futon. This cabin also has a Franklin wood stove as a nice addition for those cooler nights or for just having a romantic fire. WIFI is located near the office area. Our year round cabin offers air conditioning for the hot summer days and nights and a gas furnace for warmth to take the chill of winter away.
For your outdoors enjoyment you have your own private charcoal grill, picnic table and fire pit. From you cabin door it is just a short walk to our waterfront area on Ellis Lake or to our outdoor (common share with other guests) hot tub located in the woods beneath the pines and stars (The hot tub is open 24 hours each day. The sign up board located outside office. Please only block off 1 hour of private usage between 6 pm and midnight so it is available for other guests to enjoy during this time.

Very cute place. Easy commute to Traverse City or up the peninsula, so really good location. Under bed and behind/under furniture was not clean at all. Old wrappers, dusty bunnies..etc. If you're looking for a secluded place to unplug it's a really good option.

It's an "Up North Michigan" experience! the only knock was the traffic noise, but frankly that wasn't that bad.
