A Perfect Northern Get-Away On The Scenic Big Creek In Luzerne

This is a very clean, warm, cozy and relaxing 2 bedroom vintage cabin located within the Huron National Forest on the crystal clear Big Creek, a main tributary to the Ausable River. You will be pleased to find a host of basic amenities. This is the perfect place to unplug from your busy life and enjoy watching the various wildlife and many bird species, reading a book & dining in the screened porch while watching and listening to the river, not to mention the starry night campfires. Your stay can include many outdoor activities, such as: visiting the large neighboring Amish community with their tidy farms and unique stores, fishing, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, ATV riding, hiking, scenic overlooks and much more. We find that when many of our guests arrive they prefer to just stay and enjoy the very unique, quiet and natural surroundings

This was our second trip to the cabin. It did not disappoint. Again very clean and comfortable. The feeling of peace and zen cannot be accurately expressed. It has become one of our favorite places in Michigan. The wildlife provide hours of entertainment. Thank you again Nick and Laura for sharing this beautiful place.

really quiet and I have a nice birdfeeder right outside the dining room window and you can watch the birds many different species, beautiful porch. You can look out the window in the morning and eat your breakfast and a great dock easy walk to fish and watch the river flow the my room had a overhead ceiling fan, which was awesome. This is a great place to relax and unwind. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our stay very much. It was nice and quiet and the view of the creek was a plus. We especially liked the screen house in the back. So nice to sit in and have your morning coffee. The inside was nice, clean and cozy. We went to Mio and shopped in the Pioneer store, the Creamery and the little Amish bakery on Kittle road. They have delicious cookies and great bread. We also went to Ma Deeters restaurant for dinner and the food was really good. The owners are super nice and helpful too. All in all we would highly recommend staying here.
