This rustic, one room, octagonal log cabin is built from beautiful hand hewn logs and local mtn granite for a unique experience.

Modern kitchen comes fully stocked with plates, bowls, glassware, cutlery, and utensils. As well as a full cookware set, cast iron skillets, chef's utensils, serving bowls, and wine glasses. Fresh roasted coffee and tea is provided gratis.

Updated bathroom with a lake inspired mural by local artist Lindsey Naylor. Shampoo & conditioner, body wash, bath salts, lotion, cotton swabs, q-tips, and Kleenex.

The sleeping loft enjoys a whimsical half moon window with awesome views of the surrounding Huron Mtns. A new queen sized bed sleeps two with fresh cotton sheets and linen duvet. Extra blankets and pillows are provided.

The open living area is stocked with books, board games, bluetooth radio, and magazines for guests to enjoy. The brown leather couch and reading chairs make relaxing in comfort a breeze with views of the green forest gardens.

Enjoy the private flagstone patio with outdoor dining and living area. Outdoor grill, bonfire pit with benches, and forested trails are all yours to use.

Our two hunting cats, Remy and Rue are sure to be present and visit during your stay.

This cabin is powered by the sun. Being solar powered, integrate smart energy strategies such as:
- It is best to charge cellphones and other devices during daylight hours. Unplug chargers when charging is complete.
- Don’t leave lights or electronics on when they’re not in use.
- Don’t waste water, the water pump is the largest electric load to the system.

Ways you can help us minimize water consumption...
- Only take what you need.
- Don’t leave the faucet running when you’re brushing your teeth or washing dishes.
- Lift the handle up on the toilet for an eco- flush.

You are responsible for understanding the unique nature of this off-grid hidden cabin retreat. We can be difficult to find if you do not read your check-in directions correctly. Your directions come complete with photos and mileage, please utilize them and ditch online maps (it does not bring you to the correct location).

Guest access
In addition to the log cabin you may enjoy the beautiful flagstone patio. This is a nice place for grilling over an open fire, taking in the unspoiled star gazing, and enjoying the quiet hum of the forest. Firewood available for sale on site, $10/armload.

Other things to note
We’re located close to Lake Superior, the Yellow Dog River, Alder Falls, Lake Superior, and Lake Independence. Though we’re up in the mountains most guests enjoy recreating in the abundance of water. Be sure to pack your gear.

Please clean up after yourself for your own safety and well-being. Garbage and food debri attract wildlife. Do not leave food/trash outside overnight. There are ample trash bins available for disposal.

Prohibited activities include:
- fireworks or explosives (sparklers are allowed)
- dirt bikes, atvs, side by sides, and the like
- fire making outside of the designated fire pit
- trespassing onto neighboring property
- cutting down trees and plants of any kind

I'm obsessed with: all things outdoors
Lives in Marquette, Michigan
I have found so much peace in this cabin, these forests. I spend most of my free time outdoors exploring lakeshores and scrambling amongst the trees. It’s a blessing to breathe in the Great Lakes. Sharing my home provides a path to maintaining the old cabin, connecting with a larger community, and centering relaxation. I hope this space is filled with music & laughter.
