This cozy private cabin is yours to fully utilize. The main floor of the cabin has one bathroom, one bedroom with a Queen bed and one twin bed and one bedroom with two twin beds. There is also a loft area with one Queen bed and two twin beds, and the cabin can sleep up to nine people comfortably. All of our mattresses and bedding have been recently updated for a great night sleep. Please note that dining area seats six people, and living area has seating for three people. The cabin includes a private fire pit area right outside the back door.
If you need to work remotely, we have you covered. While cell service is limited, we have fiber internet to each cabin allowing you to work remotely, and call over wifi. Each cabin has it's own router and network name/password. The cabin also has two Roku tv's and plenty of books and games for our guests to enjoy.
This private cabin is on a property with other cabins and a private fire pit. The property is vast and you are welcome to explore all of the shared outdoor spaces, including the 22 acres up to the adjoining Ottawa National Forest. Guests are free to use the shared grill and picnic area, or explore the orchard, garden, or trails. There is one other guest cabin as well as our two private cabins on the property.
Our area is beautiful and serene with some of the best star views in the world (we may be biased). Because we are in the National forest and in the UP, there are plenty of wildlife and bugs as well, especially in the evenings and near our pond. Please be prepared for mosquitos, flies, ladybugs and other! We regularly treat in order to keep our guests comfortable, but because we are in the woods and in the UP, bugs happen. We're happy to treat, lend bug spray, or run a vacuum mid-stay if one of our guests is uncomfortable. We have chickens on the property and love to provide eggs to guests when available. Please let us know if you'd like a dozen fresh eggs and we will drop them off. If you'd like to visit with our chickens, please let us know, we'd be happy to introduce you and let you interact with the chickens if you're interested in that experience.
We are located on Silver Mountain Road (Forest Service Road 2270) with access to the snowmobile trail system (trail #12 and trail #109). Please view property pictures for the snowmobile map and our location on the trail system.
Guests are free to interact with us as little or as much as they like. One of us is on the property most of the time. If you need assistance, please feel free to knock on our door for assistance or message us. Feel free to join us by the central fire pit in the evenings, or in our gardens (seasonally/weather permitting). If you'd like a garden tour, or are interested in a group bonfire (with desserts) please let us know, we love meeting guests and hosting.
