Wellston, Michigan
Located in the heart of the Manistee National Forest on a private road. This secluded cabin is in walking distance of the Tippy dam back waters. Hiking, fishing, canoeing, hunting, Orv, and snowmobiling. It is 5 miles from Caber fey ski resort, 20 minutes from the Little River Casino and 25 minutes from Lake Michigan. The big Manistee and Little Manistee River are minutes away. The kitchen and bath are fully stocked and all bedding is supplied.
Location was very quiet
Loved the location and the quiet privacy. Perfect location for everywhere we wanted to fish. We will be back soon for Morels and then again for Salmon fishing
This is a great up North cabin that is exactly what one would expect. The cabin does need some repair such as globes for the light, back door doesn't shut properly, kitchen cabinet doors don't shut well, etc. I'll give the same advice I've given all up North cabins... bring your own egg skillet. Dave has thought of everything for his guests though. Firewood ready to light in the pit, a little bit of those items you might have forgotten like salt and pepper, a little shampoo in the shower. This is a really nice cabin and host.
It was a great getaway to Northern Michigan. It was just what we were looking for. Peace and quiet in a beautiful natural setting!
We had a wonderful time nice and secluded and quiet
What we needed for our objective
Stayed here for a fall fishing trip. The property was just as described. David was great and made sure we knew how to get there. It was very cozy and clean and just the right size for our group. We'd definitely stay here again!
Perfect for a place to sleep
Cabin was great, clean, close to Tippy dam boat launch. Owner was helpful returning my calls promptly. The fire ring was a great way to relax after fishing. Already booked for next fall.
This is a beautiful property. The cabin was comfortable and I had all I needed for a weekend getaway with my black lab. Thank you, David for letting us stay in your place.
It was a cozy cute place that was quiet and the stars are just beautiful outside. The fire pit was great! The inside had clean bedding and clean bathroom toilest and shower.. but.. underneath the kitchen sink stunk horrible and was dirty. The kitchen drawers were filthy. Only 2 burners worked on the stove.. there was dirt and dead bugs in the corners on the porch. The furniture hadnt been dusted in forever. The one bedroom stunk like mold. The window frames were black with dirt and mold.The baseboards were very dirty. The mattresses are old and sink in the middle. I think they just need a deep cleaning and some upgrades and it would be a Great place to stay!!
From the outside it looks nice and cozy. Inside couch is balanced on blocks, there is no where to put dry unfridgerated food except on porch. A low watt lightbulb hangs from the dining table lamp. It is very dark in the cabin except for the kitchen. The bathroom is ok but toilet is very low. On the upside the backyard fire ring and space was great for hanging out. There were plenty of utensils and pans. This is definetly a fishing/snowmobiling man cabin. The curtains were nicely made. However, our biggest challenge was staying warm bc the heaters didn't work. Plus the owner didn't respond until the next day as we were ready to depart. Communication was a bit of a challenge. My adult kids thought it was great but I like cabins with a little more female up to date touches.
Perfect for hunting fishing. Was really Clean also for a cabin, was a couple problems with ants by the sink but nothing too crazy it’s a cabin so if ants is all your dealing with your doing alright. Grill was little dirty also from lack of matience but other than that great place to stay
Stay was great location was ideal for fishing the manistee. Gps got confused but owner explained perfect
Great cabin in the north woods!
Nice place to use as base for our grouse camp. House was clean and had everything we needed
Needed place for 4 guys to stay while we salmon fished and this was perfect!
If you are looking for an escape from everything, this is the perfect place! Nestled into the woods, you get all the privacy you desire, and it’s a nice centralized location (within an hour from many great attractions). We didn’t plan on spending much time in the cabin, so we didn’t mind that it was sparse on the cooking/eating utensils. Only thing we wished it had was a bathtub if you have littles (or in my case a handicapped son who cannot stand to bathe himself), but we made it work! The price point was the biggest seller for us, and for the comfort of everyone having there own room, it worked great! Thanks for opening up your cabin to our family, we had a wonderful time!
This cabin is located among the trees and very secluded. It's cozy for that reason alone. It is old, and several minor things could stand for simple replacement or repair. Only 2 electrical burners work on the stove top, the cabin is dark and there is minimal lighting there, one tiny bulb above the dining table isn't adequate. We tried to do some puzzles and simply couldn't see well enough to be effective. The cabin was SUPER musty when we arrived, one of us in the group has allergies and ended up with a migraine the first night of our stay as a result of musty/mildew smells. After leaving the windows open for a full 24 hours, it smelled some better but was still prevalent. Overall, the setting and charm of the cabin is wonderful, the shade is awesome and the fire pit is amazing as well as the picnic table out back. Specific step by step directions to the property should be included in the rental details as the GPS doesn't like the address and turned us around quite a bit. The property is easily missed due to it's remote location. 20 minutes from Manistee shopping/dining, 10 minutes from trail heads and boat launch make it's location ideal if those are of interest for your group!
David is a great guy to work with. Thank you!!
Nice location, there was plenty of room for our group of 4 and cabin could have handled more. I really don't have any complaints. Great fishing cabin.
I certainly enjoyed the solitude! Sure had fun searching for the elusive Morel.
Nice cabin quite & secluded.
