Great cabin for a getaway to explore the UP! We enjoyed kayaking and a paddle boat, along with a great fire pit and provided wood! The host was easy to contact for any questions and provided a great stay with all the amenities. We had hoped for better fishing, but our only catch was a 36 inch Northern right by the dock!
