About this cabin rental

Our home away from home in Northern Michigan is 15 miles west of Gaylord and is centrally situated to several great destinations for the entire family to enjoy. Located on a private and quiet double lot, its secluded location offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The cabin has 4 bedrooms plus an overflow loft (sleeps 9 people, maximum guests is 12), along with two full bathrooms. The kitchen is completely stocked to cook for an army if you’d like, along with a full size washer and dryer. After a long day of adventuring, enjoy the sauna and indoor hot tub, or warm up next to the fireplace. Outside there is plenty of space to park your trailers, plus a nice fire pit with plenty of wood to cook s’mores (cooking sticks provided).

If you want to do a little shopping or dining, the Alpine Village of Gaylord is just a quick 15 minute drive and offers several great local restaurants. If you care to venture out a bit further, the cabin is centrally located, allowing you to easily make a day trip to some of the best resort towns in the state (Mackinac Island - 70 miles, Petoskey - 50 miles, Traverse City -50 miles).

Looking for a home base for snowmobile or ATV riding? The cabin's proximity to Trail 4 makes it an ideal base for snowmobile or ATV enthusiasts, granting access to some of Northern Michigan's finest riding trails. Located in ‘the buckle’ of the Northern Michigan snowbelt, there is an average snowfall over 150 inches a year! Want to ski? Boyne Mountain – one of the largest ski resorts in Michigan – is less than 30 minutes away, and several smaller resorts are even closer.

There are several amenities available right in the neighborhood, including a golf course and restaurant.

This home has been in our family for 20 years and has provided so many great memories. If you have any questions about the area or the home, don’t hesitate to ask!

Cabin is perfect for our group. This was our second stay and all our guest enjoyed the cabin. Location is perfect for snowmobiling trails and side-by-side. Cabin was clean and directions are easy to follow.We really enjoyed the large open living and dining room space as a group. The rooms are private and beds are comfortable. Plenty of towels for everyone. We even enjoyed the hot tub and sauna as a bonus to our stay. Overall, the cabin is five and our host Jay, was amazing & very responsive. We will definitely stay again!

The cabin was amazing we all had an amazing stay if I had to make anything better it would be that the hot tub wouldn’t get hot and i couldn’t get in contact with the home owner to fix the problem. But other than that the stay was perfect!! Such a beautiful home and area
