Family Friendly Forest Cabin - Pictured Rocks, Waterfalls, ORV/Snowmobile Trails

Welcome to your peaceful forest cabin near Munising and the stunning Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. This cozy and comfortable retreat is tucked among tall pines, offering privacy, quiet, and a convenient location close to waterfalls, hiking trails, beaches, and downtown Munising.

The cabin includes a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable living area, clean bathroom, and three bedrooms—perfect for couples, families, or travelers looking to explore the Upper Peninsula. All bedrooms have queen sized beds with blankets, pillows and those cozy extras that are needed for the perfect night's sleep. With a smart TV in the living room and main bedroom, you're sure to enjoy your evenings at the cabin. Whether you prefer board games, a night out at the fire pit, or a fresh cooked meal with movies/shows in the living room, you can do it all here.

Guests enjoy fast WiFi, easy self check-in, ample parking for vehicles/trailers, and a spacious outdoor area with a fire pit for evening relaxation. Our welcome basket is home to little treats that are sure to please after a long car ride.

The place was very cute and very welcoming. I loved how they had things labeled everywhere so you knew where things were or what to do the pictures on the website. Don’t do it justice. It’s much cuter in person. We really enjoyed it. We were only there two days, but if we were to ever come back up that way, we would definitely stay there again And I’m gonna be telling my kids about it so that when they go up to go snowmobiling, hopefully they can stay there.
