Summer Vaca!!!

Our group of 5 used this home as base camp for adventures in the area such as Torch Lake, Boyne Mountain, Mackinac Island, Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The house layout was perfect for our group. I only wish it was closer to Gaylord for some quicker grocery runs. The house was clean and the host was very prompt at answering our questions.

Idyllic Retreat in the Heart of Nature

We recently stayed at this charming log cabin in Gaylord, MI, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we felt enveloped in tranquility. Here’s why we loved it: Relaxing Ambiance: The cabin’s serene surroundings instantly put us at ease. Nestled amidst lush woodlands, it felt like a true escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Tranquil Setting: The quietude was remarkable. We woke up to birdsong and the rustling of leaves—a perfect respite from the noise of the city. Laid-Back Vibes: The cabin’s rustic charm and cozy interiors made us feel right at home. It’s the kind of place where you can kick back, read a book, and forget about time. Spotlessly Clean: The cleanliness was impeccable. Every corner of the cabin was well-maintained, and we appreciated the attention to detail. New and Inviting: The cabin had a fresh, new feel. It’s evident that the owners take pride in maintaining their property. And let’s talk about that hot tub! Oh, what a delight. The water was perfectly heated to 104 degrees, and we spent evenings soaking under the star-studded sky. It was pure bliss. We highly recommend this VRBO log cabin to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway. Whether you’re a couple or a family wanting quality time together, this place ticks all the boxes. Thank you for providing such a wonderful retreat—we’ll be back!

This house is everything and more!! Whether you just stay at the home or use it as a base for multiple adventures, as we did, it is everything you will need. Close to everything upper Michigan has to offer and secluded in the depths of the wilderness. If you want a quiet secluded getaway this is it!!

Better than the pics!

Brand new cabin in the middle of the woods with only one other house visible. You're surrounding by nothing but woods at the time of this writing. The owner's posting pictures don't do the place justice. It's really nice and is furnished as if the owners actually use the place themselves. Everything you might need (olive oil, foil, soap, etc...) is all there already. Super clean and everything works! - you won't regret it!
