The Sunshine Cabin enjoys ample natural sun year around from its lofty position up in the trees. The large picture window overlooking Big Lake provides a birds eye view of both the canopy and lake.
This 81’ deep lake has an island and home to many types of fish that's why we brought fishing/recreational kayaks for our guests. The boat launch access is just 1.6 miles from the sunshine cabin. The cabin is secluded on 1.45 acres of trees.
This listing is all about the experience.

    Enjoyed the place. Unfortunately the hot tub broke after one use. The host replied quickly, a repair was attempted the next day. I understand things happen, and I appreciate the host’s response. Would recommend this place or host.

    Kitchen was stocked well along with the bathroom. The property was clean and communication was great with the property owner. The home is located close to town but still far enough away to be quiet and private.

    The property was once again a beautiful, relaxing stay. Since our last stop, the owner made some upgrades to the fire ring, which made it even better. We'll be back.

    This is a beautiful home on beautiful property overlooking a lake. The owners have a hot tub in the garage which is decorated like its own little oasis. There is an outdoor fire pit. Fishing kayaks for use. The home itself is very welcoming. We went in September and the home was nicely decorated with fall items. It was just a lovely place to stay. If you have any questions or concerns the owners are very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay here near some beautiful trails to hike with our dogs.

    Such a lovely home base for our summer vacation week. Comfy beds and a great view of the woods from the upper/main floor. We were a little worried it might be off the grid and hard to use our GPS, but it’s easy to access in a quiet little neighborhood that had plenty of spaces to walk with our lab. (Dog beds provided was a very nice touch that made him settle in, and there was plenty of space to set up his crate.)We were 20 minutes from a nice state park beach and a half hour from an excellent forest hike. About an hour from the Mackinac Bridge and another hour to Sault Ste Marie for a day of UP adventures. And we enjoyed the kayaks on Emerald and Opal Lakes, as well as some fishing time nearby on Big Lake.Lots of good tools to cook with in the kitchen and a nice gas range, plus a grill and a crockpot that came in handy for quick hot dogs and having a nice dinner ready after our day trips. Then some chillax time in the hot tub and out on the deck.The whole family loved it!

    I would give this a excellent rating. It was super clean, and well decorated. It was very organized. The hot tub was very clean, and the area it was in was very well heated. Each room hss a separate thermostat so you can control each room to your comfort level. Plenty of towels, plus there was coffee, and a cocoa bar. It was decorated for the holiday. It was very peaceful and quiet, but I didn't feel.secluded. Beds were very comfortable. Plenty of parking. Plow came in a very timely manner to plow and shovel the snow that had fallen. I would highly recommend this place. It was within 5 miles to two ski resorts plus Gaylord.

    My wife and I and our 2 dogs had a great time at this splendid property. The ownership was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The property is well stocked with most anything you would need and then some. Amongst the trees, the natural views are impressive. On a nightly basis, we had barred owls calling all around us, and you could hear the loons on the lake in the morning. The beds are very comfortable. This is truly a great place to step away for a few days or a week. Will be back.
