The cabin can sleep up to 12 guests as follows: 3 queen beds, 1 twin bed, 1 sofa sleeper (main floor); 2 twin rollaways and 1 queen air mattress! Pete's Lake area is within walking distance, only 1/2 mile from Maple Ridge and has a nice beach and swimming area, fishing pier, picnic tables and grills. Hiking trails all over the place in our neck of the woods and lots of inland fishing lakes. Bring your boat and canoe along and trailer to many, many area lakes. A fire in the fire pit will be great fun at night to make s'mores. Grill your fresh catch on the charcoal grill or if you didn't 'strike out' you can always go into Munising and purchase some fresh Lake Superior trout! Take the short drive, on our beautiful Federal Forest Hwy, into Munising to enjoy Pictured Rocks cruise, glass bottom boat rides, golfing, charter fishing, shopping, and more, and then enjoy your time back at the cottage with peace and quiet in the woods.
This is a really lovely property with a cozy ski cabin feel, beautiful lot, well-provisioned kitchen and more. Lisa was very communicative with us and provided clear directions as well as clear procedures for us to follow. The area is quiet and adjacent to spectacular scenery. Highly recommend!
Truly incredible experience in every way. Not a single complaint or suggestion. Five star northern Michigan getaway. Perfectly situated 15 minutes south of downtown munising and the pictured rocks.
A bit far from town but quiet and tidy with all the comforts of home.
We loved our stay here! The home was very peaceful and super comfortable. Our trips to Munising were very close and nearby stores/restaurants were plentiful. We will definitely rent this out again!
Such a nice clean, comfortable house. We were there with my family, which included six adults, a nine month, old, baby, and two dogs. It worked out great that we each had our own level to sleep on. There is no air conditioning but that’s not a problem. Open the windows at night and close them in the morning and you’ll stay plenty cooI. It was about a 15 to 20 minute drive to Munising. We went hiking, kayaking, tour, boat cruise, and a great brewery called By George, which we visited every day. LOL . You must hike to the beach…beautiful and bigger beach than Mexico resorts. The pizza place across from the brewery was very good also and offered vegetarian and vegan options. You must try the pasties. They were great and we also ate at Captain Ron’s fish food truck. The grocery store was a bit expensive so I would recommend you bring as much food and booze as you can. There is a small general store down the road from the house that’s helpful. Bring mosquito spray if going in June. We also bought a stroller mosquito net for the baby but put it over her (and the person carrying her) when hiking. She didn’t get a single bite! Lisa made our reservations and arrangements effortlessly and kept in constant contact. So professional and efficient. Thank you, Lisa!!! We did buy firewood for bonfires, but forgot the sun stays up until around 9:30 PM , then the mosquitoes came out and we ran inside. Overall very enjoyable house and we will definitely stay there again.
Great property and location. Close to munising, boat tours, kayaking, parks, lakes and hicking trails. Property has everything you need from dishes to games and toys for the kids
Had a great time the house and the snow were great
We all felt very comfortable in your rental house . Stocked well with necessities. Thank you Lisa!
We came to the U P to go snowmobiling and this house was perfect for our needs! Plenty of space and the mud room was awesome for all our gear! The house is located near trails and that was great! Would definitely come back!
Lisa was an excellent host. Communication was great when booking and during the stay. Highly recommend
It was the perfect long weekend getaway
Lisa thought of everything. Completely comfortable and furnished for a getaway anytime of year. The location is convenient to town (Munising) and Hiawatha Forest for a day of hiking or fishing. We will be back.
The cabin met our needs, was clean, roomy, and comfortable. It was a nice surprise to have all of the kid-friendly games and toys available to keep my 5 year old nephew entertained. We enjoyed the firepit, the deck, and being surrounded by trees. The only issue we had was a little miscommunication/misunderstanding. We were told there was a half mile path to Pete's Lake when it was actually a half mile path AT or NEAR Pete's Lake. We also didn't know the grill was located in the garage/storage building and spent a lot of time searching the property for the grill. Both instances were handled/resolved through further communications with the owner and were certainly NOT reasons to think twice about renting the place. We loved being close to Munising and Pictured Rocks and would recommend the cabin to others.
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maple Ridge. It was such a peaceful stay. The cabin was very clean and welcoming. The location was ideal for exploring the UP! Looking forward to our next visit!
The location, property and cabin were exactly what we were looking for! Everything about our stay was great and we would book again!
Cabin was great for our family of eight. Kitchen had an abundance of cookware, small appliances and dishes. There were even spices for cooking. Depending on the nature of your visit, the location isn’t great. It’s about 14 miles from downtown Munising so it wasn’t ideal for us - we were there for the hiking, falls and beaches. The listing also indicates that it is a half mile from Pete’s Lake - we never did find the walking path to the area. Communication with Lisa, the host, was great. There are lots of specific requests/rules and housekeeping items you are asked to take care of. The WiFi is good once you are at the cabin, but the surrounding area is dead. Future trips we’ll choose something closer to town but all in all it was a good experience.
This was a great getaway for my family in between outings and at the end of the day. My kids loved playing in the yard and did not want to leave. Lisa was very responsive with any questions I had.
The cabin is beautiful. The owners were very accommodating, easy to talk to, and quick to responding to any questions or concerns. They allowed us to bring are fur babies too! Great experience. We loved the location. Quiet, peaceful, and the neighbors aren't close by. Quite a bit of privacy but still close enough to the places we wanted to explore; grand island, miners falls, miners castle, and miners beach.
