You'll never run out of adventures at this picturesque Michigan cabin. Also work remotely with our high-speed Wi-Fi! Please note there is a max of 2 dogs allowed with a $75.00 pet fee.

The Channel Cabin is a perfect place to soak in our new HOT TUB, take a paddle down the channel, take your ORVs for a ride, or relax by the quiet fire pit. Enjoy the sound of the native loons in the evening and cruise the endless two tracks by day. The channel connects to not one, but two lakes to explore. You'll never run out of adventures at this newly remodeled picturesque Michigan cabin. The bathroom is small but functional with hot water, shower, toilet, and a small vanity. The cabin is on a dirt road with other cabins nearby, everyone is kind and keeps to themselves. If you have more questions, feel free to ask.

Guests are welcome to use every square inch of the 1.5 acres. There are 4 kayaks for the guests pleasure as well! no extra charge!

Contact by text, or call. This is your space, and we respect your privacy.

The cabin site is in a very quiet spot. If you're looking to detach from the rush of everyday life, you've found your getaway. The cabin has a couple neighbors within ear shot and within sight everyone in the area is very friendly and you will feel right at home in this cabin. While there are some neighbors only one is what I would describe as close, about 100 yards away, there is a small patch of trees between the two properties.

Note: The path to the channel is spongy due to high lake levels. bring sandals or boots :)
We have one neighbor about 100 yards away through some thin pines. Some have said that the bathroom is small, but we have hot water, a vanity, shower, and of course a toilet.
The bedrooms as seen in pictures are separated by curtains. the bath has a standard door for privacy.

Perfect Getaway

We spent 3 nights in this cozy cabin. If you need to get away for a while, this is the place for you. Perfect couple's getaway. AND, we could bring our dog.When we checked in, the host immediately asked if we needed anything and to contact him if we did.When we had one issue ( our fault, couldn't figure how to heat up the hot tub), Mike promptly texted us to solve it. It is very clean, comfy bed, all the basics provided. We definitely recommend it.

Not really as advertised

Definitely NOT waterfront. The area around this property is unkept, the other 'houses' are run down, and there is junk in many of the yards. This was advertised as waterfront, but there is zero water view unless you walk down a long path, part of which is walking on RR ties, to get to a channel. There are no doors on the bedrooms, only curtains that don't come close to the floor, so you don't get any privacy. The host was very responsive and the hot tub was nice.

Girls Weekend

We really enjoyed our stay! We went out kayak fishing every day, loved using the hot tub, and just relaxed. It was really quiet and peaceful there. We did all our cooking there and the kitchen was pretty well stocked. The space was perfect for my friend and I. We would recommend this little cabin , and can’t wait to return!

Peaceful

This was a clean, peaceful place to stay. This was our “home away from home” for 3 nights. The perfect retreat after a day of hiking and riding the ORV through the trails. The landscape is pretty and full of nature with the sunset peeking through the trees as you soak in the hot tub! We really enjoyed our stay!
