This has been the location for my customer appreciation trip for the last few years. Everyone loves the peacefulness of the property and how it seems to transport you back in time. With it nestled in the woods and lazy stream right there. You feel like you’re 100 miles away from everything. Yet, everything you need is with in a minutes drive. I will continue staying here for many more years to come.
Place was as described. Very convenient and well suited for a fishing weekend. Outdoor area and deck overlooking the river is a bonus. Look forward to coming back. Thanks for having us!
Wonderful stay. Was easy to get to, private and peaceful, relaxing stay. Beds were comfortable , cabin had everything we needed and more. Loved the screened in porch , the dock by the river , the fire pit and the beautiful surroundings. The cabin was wonderfully decorated, so clean and comfortable. The gas fireplace was a bonus on the morning that got down to 49. Warm and cozy. Will definitely be back!
Nice, rustic cabin with a beautiful view of the river. Everything was clean and ready to go for our stay. I particularly liked the big screened porch. The listing indicated there was WiFi and I don’t think that is correct. Not a big deal to us, but it might be to others. After many vacation rentals, this was the first time I can recall seeing a listing of fines. In my opinion, those potential fines should be presented to people before agreeing to rent the property. The items aren’t overly burdensome and some are expected (taking sheets/towels). You do pay an excessive “cleaning fee” so a couple of the potential fines struck me as a bit odd. With all that said, we enjoyed our stay and were very happy to be there.
Really, the best part of the cabin is that beautiful back porch. You can sit there and eat all of your meals just listening to the birds sing, watching the fish jump out of the river, and feeling the breeze, completely protected from buzzing insects. We were there when it was 90°, but the cabin stayed only in the high 70s even with no air conditioning. The ceiling fans were helpful as well. Easy check in and out. You are in the woods at the cabin but still close to Baldwin. The north country hiking trail is clise by and was incredible, as was canoeing on the Baldwin River. We also went to Ludington and enjoyed Lake Michigan. It was a great trip!
We enjoyed our stay at this cabin in the woods. There was a large fire pit and we enjoyed the fire there several evenings. It was relaxing sitting on the screened in porch and hearing and watching the river below. The bed was very comfortable so we rested well. The evenings were cool so we enjoyed the gas fireplace also. Thank you for sharing this cabin and property with us.
For me, this property is like stepping back in time. Very sportsman themed. It’s just secluded enough but also it’s right in the middle of the mix of everything you need. Peaceful relaxing just what the doctor ordered.
Nice cabin but not really as good as the pictures. No heat in one of the bedrooms. Musty smell when you first walk in. Beware of all the penalties upon checking out. Lighting is very dim. You cannot possibly tie any flies without additional lights unless you’re in the bathroom.. Screened porch is great with a nice view of Baldwin River. Need to bring your own cone filters for the coffee maker. Convenient for the salmon run. No wi-fi and phone coverage is iffy.
Great fish camp. I love the cabin decor. No internet is a bonus. Owners choice of DVDs is great - Predator, 3 Amigos, My Cousin Vinny, and vintage Chuck Norris- The Octagon.
Relatively isolated traditional fishing camp. Felt like your grandfather took his buddies there to fish, hunt, or perhaps enjoy a wee dram by the fire. The inside of the cabin can not be improved upon. I hope the exterior issues are addressed soon because this is a special place that deserves to be maintained and preserved.
My husband and I were there to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We really enjoyed our stay. It is just about 10 minutes away from the historic Idlewild, MI. The home is clean, quiet, and peaceful. And, check-in and check-out are contactless. As we pulled up to the property, I was satisfied to see that we were tucked away in a private area of the woods that only we had access to, but still close enough to neighborhoods so that we didn't feel dangerously alone. We needed a place that was accessible, so the fact that there were no stairs leading into the home was excellent. And, there was a walk-in shower, which was also wonderful. The walk-in closet in our bedroom provided a lot of storage for us to place our suitcases and shoes so that we had more walking space. I really wanted a place where I could prepare our meals. So, I love the fact that the kitchen had a gas stove, oven, full-sized refrigerator/freezer, and microwave. And, whether we chose to sit in the enclosed patio, or step outside on the patio, it was really nice to enjoy the sights and sounds of nature, including the huge fish that swam in the water. We also had access to a fireplace and a fire pit that we chose not to use this time. But, I imagine that they are both beautiful when lit. I know that firepit will be wonderful for warmth on cool Baldwin nights, and roasting marshmallows. This serene escape was just the relaxing break we needed.
Great time
