Welcome to Kingfisher Cabin, a peaceful waterfront retreat just 9 minutes from Midland on the beautiful, fully restored Sanford Lake. Thoughtfully designed to showcase its stunning setting, the cabin's expansive windows frame breathtaking panoramic views of the lake and surrounding natural beauty.

Wake to spectacular sunrises shimmering across the water, then spend your evenings around the campfire watching the stars emerge or the moon rise over the lake. Step outside onto your privatelakeside patio, where you can relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while enjoying peaceful water views and frequent visits from ducks, songbirds, great blue herons, and—if you're fortunate—even majestic bald eagles.

As our guest, you'll also enjoy access to a shared waterfront gathering area at the tip of the peninsula. This one-of-a-kind setting features a lakeside fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and sweeping panoramic views of Sanford Lake. It's the perfect place to unwind, watch wildlife, read a good book, or gather with family and friends as the sun sets and the evening sky fills with stars.

Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to prepare meals, along with tasteful décor and a warm, inviting atmosphere that instantly feels like home. Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a peaceful weekend of relaxation, or a base for exploring Midland and the surrounding area, Kingfisher Cabin offers one of the most scenic and memorable lakefront stays in Mid-Michigan.

    Perfect option for tournament to stay in a cottage vs hotel. Close to Midland from a driving perspective. View incredible. Can appreciate access to lake in warmer weather. Comfortable beds and kitchen needs met our expectations.

    Very great place to stay when you are away from home! I loved the area it was in even though we were mostly traveling throughout the day. It had the amenities that we needed for our family. I also enjoyed the personal touch of the owners letting us know areas to check out. Thank you we would stay again for sure!

    We really like staying in Kingfisher Cabin. It’s quiet and peaceful and very comfortable. The neighborhood is great, and so close to Midland. We will return!

    Very relaxing weekend. Cabin is super cute with all the modern amenities of home. The only thing we wished had been different was the access to the water for fishing. There’s really no safe way to get down there. Minor issue…we would stay here again.

    Clean (exceptionally pristine!) , cute & cozy cabin with sunset views over the river/lake. Well stocked kitchen. The bed/bedding was the best part! Soft & snuggly sheets and the pillows & mattress were perfectly plump and probably the best I have ever slept on! I am so picky about the quality of beds when renting, but this place was top tier! I would book again and definitely recommend to others.

    The cabin was very clean and well stocked. It even had coffee which we appreciated. After a long drive, we did not want to go to a grocery store to get morning coffee!Doug is a very responsive host. He answered us quickly before we came and while we were there.We had a great experience and would go back.

    Our stay at Kingfisher Cabin was great! The cabin itself was clean and comfortable, and the Wi-Fi worked well. It was a bit surprising to see the river so low – I remember seeing the news about the Midland flooding a few years ago and didn't realize the extent of the impact. While the riverbed being exposed was unexpected, the view was still nice, and we really enjoyed watching the local wildlife. The bedrooms were a little chilly, but it wasn't a big issue. The location was fantastic, with easy access to Midland and lots of other great places to explore in the area. We would definitely stay here again!

    We came to attend a wedding. We are a nature-loving, birding family. We loved the location. Close to our event and also to bay city state park. Loved it. Clean. Perfect.
