Authentic Log Cabin, Secluded Site on the Ausable River

Having stayed here previously, I thought I knew what to expect. To my surprise, many things have been improved and the overall size of the cabin was much bigger than I remembered. The weather for the week was perfect and our family of 5 was outside hiking, biking, and swimming everyday. The cabin was always cooler than expected and gave us tons of space so each kid could have some alone time. Lots of meals, snacks, and games were played on the outdoor teak dining table. Next trip will be winter for the kids to experience a very special place

This cabin is outstanding. Great location, off the road but close to many activities. The cabin is comfortable, fully outfitted, yet remains rustic. Would change a thing. Also, the communication before and during visit was well done. Thank you.

My boyfriend and I had the most wonderful week at this cabin. It’s secluded and absolutely gorgeous. As everyone says, the pictures don’t do it justice! We had a blast exploring the local areas, fishing the river, evenings on the screened porch, nighttime movies on the daybeds and a fire in the huge fireplace. Most importantly we are so glad to have met Jim, the property manager. He was so spectacular and even helped us out when we had a dead truck battery.

The cabin was so picturesque. Great meals on the porch with the glistening river. Day 1 we went to Ausable Chasm and antiquing. Day 2 to coaster ride and Lake Placid. Excellent location. Highly recommend.

Stunning cabin! Remote location/wildlife/river so peaceful, truly a dream come true!!

Best, most peaceful break my wife and I have ever had!

This cabin was everything we wanted for a relaxing vacation. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked, beds were comfortable, and it was impeccably clean. There is so much to around the outside of teh cabin as well as local towns nearby.

To be able to stay in a 94 year old cabin that was as perfect as this one we feel lucky or honored. We wanted remote relaxation and boy this fit the bill. It was within 25 minutes of great restaurants and we were bowled over with the scenery. We’ve been coming to Placid for forty years but never did much up it this area. The views were spectacular. The trails at the cabin were well maintained and we would have liked to have fished but it was 90 and they did not recommend fishing in such warm temperatures. The porch, the swing, the picnic table area, the eagles fishing down on the river and of course the cabin itself, just unreal! I would love to know the history of this cabin.,,, just imagine what it was like when it was built in 1928!

I will recommend to anyone who likes secluded , water front with all amenities.

Our stay was even better than expected. If you want alone time, this is for you. The cabin was so cozy and warm and everything you need is provided. Thank you Deerlands. We will be back for sure!
