Secluded cabin on Betsie River with hot tub & firepit. Minutes to Crystal Mtn

Welcome to the Cabin on Pine Ridge hosted by Wander North Rentals!

This cabin is a secluded retreat on the Betsie River just minutes from the ski hills and golf courses of Crystal Mountain. The river offers anglers some of the finest salmon and steelhead fishing in Northern Michigan. Enjoy 14 wooded acres, 800 feet of private Betsie River frontage, a hot tub, and fire pit! Inside the cabin there is 2 living rooms, a wood fireplace, games, puzzles, and endless NoMI vibes.

The Cabin on Pine Ridge is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath home located in the woods surrounding the Betsie River. You will enjoy seclusion with nature but a short drive to Crystal Mountain and Frankfort.

On the cabin's first floor, you will walk into the fully stocked kitchen and dining room combo. Kitchen has everything you will need to make a meal after a long day skiing including pots/pans, dishes, and cooking basics like salt/pepper and olive oil. Off the kitchen is the first living room of the home which is connected to the decks.

Downstairs is a second living room with a TV and sitting area. This is also the access point to the hot tub which overlooks the woods and beautiful river. One more set of stairs brings you to the first bedroom with a queen bed and built in bunk with a trundle. There is also a full bath and laundry room on this level.

Upstairs are two more bedrooms. The first bedroom has a king sized bed with a balcony overlooking the woods and river. The second bedroom has a queen and 2 twin beds perfect for a family with small children.

Property is great overall, very private. Kitchen and grill is very well equipped as well as toys, books, games etc. for all ages. The only 2 possible improvements our group mentioned is the beds are a bit hard and 2 days were very warm and the lack of central AC had the cabin pretty warm. i do imagine the heated floors would be very cosy in the colder months. Yes we would/will stay again

Beautiful, new and clean cabin in ideal Up North location

Perfect for both my kids’ families with two large rooms that include beds for kids and then also a grandparents’ bedroom. Plenty of rooms/outdoor spaces to hang together or do separate activities. Beautifully decorated with everything you could need. Very thoughtful host! And we took advantage of the stocked.com service and had our groceries waiting when we got there! A short drive to Beulah to see Crystal Lake, Benzonia for putt-putt, Elbert or Frankfort (great food everywhere!) or just head west to Lake MI to find lots of access. Had fun kayaking the Platte River with Riverside too. We kept the kids busy all week!
