This Cabin is within a short walking distance of the Beach on Lake Superior and the AuTrain River. Spend some time relaxing on the Beach or swim in the warm water of the River where it empties into the Lake. This location is perfect for a home base of all of the local attractions this area has to offer. Within 15 minutes you are in Munising where you can do the Pictured Rocks cruise, Shipwreck Tour or Kayak tour and many more. Munising is the start of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshoreand there's days worth of activities there and the surrounding area. See over a dozen waterfalls all within 30 minutes from the Cabin.

The cabin is done completely in custom woodwork. As you enter, you'll see the homemade barn doors for bedrooms and hallway closets. As you walk past, you will enter the main living area that is all an open concept and all done in custom woodwork. There's locally sourced Hemlock walls and homemade rustic cabinets. The Kitchen is part of the open concept that is perfect for anyone who likes to cook. With a central stove and counter area, the cook can engage with the other group members as they sit around the bar that goes around the kitchen or watch TV while they cook. In the corner of the cabin is a homemade wet bar, (no liquor, SORRY!) The main bathroom is large and has a custom steel shower, the other bathroom is in the back off the laundry room and has a full size tub and shower. In the bedrooms, one has a king, the other has a queen and the 3rd bedroom has a full on bottom and twin on top for sleeping accommodations for 7. All of the 3 bedrooms have smart TV's.

Included in your stay is a gas flat top with propane, paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent and softener as well as coffee filters for our regular drip coffee maker. We don't provide toiletries. All bedding, towels and linens provided.

Au Train is located in a beautiful rural area, and unlike cities, homes here do not use a municipal water system. Instead, everyone relies on a well system for their water including us! Well water is completely natural and does not contain additives or chemicals such as chlorine, commonly used in city water. Because of this you may notice that the water can taste or smell different than what you're used to at home. You're of course welcome to bring bottled water if you prefer.

Out back is a fenced in yard with a covered patio with table, chairs and flattop grill. Also a fire pit area and chairs for sitting provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy the fire, outdoors, each other and the stars..... For pet owners, there's a pen area with a door to the cabin.

We're confident you will enjoy this cabin and the area as we have for years!

    The cabin was exactly as shown in the photos. Very rustic and innovative all at the same time. Unfortunately, we were there during a blizzard and lost power for 9 hours. Communication with the property owner was excellent. Kitchen was unique and the big couches were comfortable while watching movies in the huge TV. Snowmobile trail access is about 4 blocks away.

    The size and location of this cabin was perfect for our family vacation. The fenced in yard and covered deck made for lovely outdoor time with our dogs. The beach nearby was great for people and pets and the cain is right between Pictured Rocks and Marquette. We did some scrubbing of pots, pans and an electric skillet that had either not been cleaned well by previous guests or not used in quite some time. We shared with the property manager about a cabinet door that is in need of repair when they came to help with another issue. The host is very responsive, so things were addressed very quickly. Overall, the cabin made a good home base for our family vacation.

    We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! The place was spacious and clean. All the essentials were provided, including dishes, silverware, and other kitchen basics.The location is fantastic—just a short walk to a convenient store, an ice cream and pizza restaurant, and best of all, the beautiful beach on Lake Superior.

    The cabin is advertised as “sight distance to Superior”, unable to see lake from any of the cabin windows or yard. Cabin was “dank” cavern like. Seemed relatively clean although the finishings were very rough wood. The owner has a sign that is meant to be humorous but considering the obviously offensive picture

    My husband & i stayed here for our anniversary and we couldn't have picked a better place. It felt like home to us! A huge kitchen with all things necessary to cook a delicious dinner, a cozy living room to sit by the fire and watch a movie while seeing the snow fall, the bed is so comfy too! If you are looking for a place that feels like home and is within walking distance to Lake Superior, look no more!

    The property was as described. Appreciated timely communication and ability for an early checkin with management. Overall, inside could have been better deep cleaned. Kitchen photos show great open concept but if cooking, it’s a bit impractical. No real counter area near sinks for prep. Microwave is reachable only for a very tall person or with a step ladder. The numerous dishes, pots, etc and the use of the grill was nice. Being dog friendly was a plus for us. Thanks!

    This was the perfect place for my family and I to stay while we crossed something off our bucket list- kayaking on Lake Superior! We were only a 15 minute drive from where the guide service was in Munising. The cabin had everything we needed and so much more. The fenced-in yard was great for our dogs. The beautiful beach was a very short walk away, and the grocery store just up the road had a great selection of items if you forget anything. The hosts were very quick to respond anytime we had a question. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

    Despite the weather being fall like in August, we enjoyed our stay at da Au Train Cabin! The location was great - within walking distance to the beach, a small grocery store and restaurant. Close to Munising, Pictured Rocks and lots of waterfalls and hiking. The cabin was, well a cabin. Rustic is maybe a good word to describe it, but the beds and couches were comfy. We did not get to enjoy the outdoor space much due to the weather. The yard would have been great if we had brought our dogs.

    We had a great time at the cabin while doing a pictured rocks paddle tour nearby. We also took a kayak trip down the Au Train river, kayak rentals available just across the street and they provide a shuttle. Cabin was perfect for 4 adults, huge TV was perfect for watching the Olympics! Outside space was nice too.
