The cabin is super cute and tine, perfect for a quick little get away. It is right off the road, but the back area is pretty covered by the trees so still a little private. Had the basic necessities and is very cozy!

Lovely A frame in great location. Driving distance to the west-Petosky, Ludington, to the east- Alpena, to the north-Mackinaw Island and Sault Ste Marie. We’ve stayed twice and highly recommend. If you’re a golf enthusiast, you’ll be in heaven right in Gaylord. We loved the elk viewing park too.
