Great location and lots of things for the kids to do!

Cabin was nice and clean. Only thing I'd recommend to improve the experience was the downstairs bed was a little squeaky getting in and out of.

Absolutely gorgeous cabin and location! We walked in the chalet and our son said - “This feels like home!” All 3 of our kiddos enjoyed squeegeeing the shower.We thoroughly enjoyed kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, and seeing the box turtles. We could’ve stayed at the resort and not gone anywhere for the duration of our stay. We would love to return and stay longer!

Upper Peninsula Vacation

Great time! Cabin had everything you could need. The huge sliding glass door looking out to the lake was very nice. Just sitting on the huge porch, listening to the water and watching for wildlife was exactly the vacation we were looking for.

Great location for MTU events

We chose The Chalet for us 5 to stay for MTU graduation. This was a great relaxing place to be in between our events and short trips to Houghton. Highly recommend this or the other properties of Northwoods Adventure. Really enjoyed our last evening playing games with a nice fire in the fireplace too.
