The Buck Rack Chalet is nestled in the Hiawatha National Forest with 100 ft. of waterfront property on Sixteen Mile Lake. This three bedroom chalet is the perfect destination for a family or group of friends to gather for relaxation and fun.
In the summer months, enjoy fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and swimming in the lake. Take a short 15 -30 minute trip to the Pictured Rocks, a glass bottom shipwreck tour on Lake Superior, the beaches of Lake Superior, or bike around Grand Island. <br> During the winter, there is no better place to stay to enjoy the hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobile trails the area has to offer. Our cabin sits right in the center of the lake effect snowbelt in the Upper Pennisula.
Munising is 12 miles from the chalet where you will find a large grocery store, restaurants, gas stations, gift shops, churches, and bars. There is also a really nice Visitor's Center there with lots of information about the area. Make your reservation today!

    We had an amazing time here! Loved every minute of the stay, and Amy was a fantastic host! We got to experience the snowstorm of the decade (3 feet of snow in 2 days), and we were warm & cozy here the whole time. Love the setup of the living-kitchen-dining space, made the perfect areas to have family time, games, and enjoy the fireplace. Beds were super comfy. Love the loft area for reading. Great views. Beautiful road for snowy walks. We hope to come back again! Thanks Amy for a great stay!

    The cabin was fully stocked, even had some items we forgot to bring. Very nice and clean, we had a great Christmas staying here. They even had games and a sled to play in the snow. It was an amazing stay.

    We enjoyed our stay, the location was so quiet and made relaxing by the lake amazing. We took advantage of the kayaks and explored the lake. We were within a half hour to an hour of several waterfalls and other natural wonders. We enjoyed Wagler, Chapel and Mosquito Falls one day, the next day we explored Big Springs and our last day we explored the Picture Rocks area including Miners Castle and Falls. What an amazing gem you have!

    Cabin was perfect for a week long stay with 6 adults and one dog. Perfectly stocked, extremely clean and very dog friendly. View from the house was relaxing, and use of kayaks was a huge plus. Great location to get to numerous area highlights! Communication with Amy was easy, and received quick responses to questions that we had. Overall, a fantastic stay!

    The property was beautiful. The house was very clean. Our grandchildren had an awesome time. The only think they wanted was to fish. A fishing pole or two would have been extra great! But we loved our stay! Thank you

    The property was great. Very accurate to what you see in the pictures. We really enjoyed the kayaks, the open concept living area, access to the dock and beach, and the peace and quiet at night. It was a great space for our party of 8!

    This was an absolutely wonderful place to stay. Easy to get to and excellent directions. Excellent communication. Great vistas. Best stocked kitchen and other amenities I’ve experienced. Comfortable. Seven us old Scoutmasters stayed here. Beds comfortable too. This to us was a luxury stay. Hoping to come back in future.

    My family and I stayed to celebrate a Birthday and travel around the UP for a week. The house was perfect, well set up and dog/kid friendly. We really enjoyed having coffee on the dock in the morning and stargazing at night (when it wasnt cloudy). It was so nice to hear nature and feel the calm of the woods. Buckhorn Resort Tavern was great for a family meal out and Carberry's Wood Fired Pizza was worth it!! (They are cash only) The shipwreck tour was also surprisingly great!!Overall we had a great time and the house was a perfect base camp for the week. We miss it already!!

    Our family stayed for a week in early June and we were very happy with our stay. The house was very clean and well appointed. No communication problems with the property manager. We stayed with our somewhat anxious pup and she also fell into a daily routine and enjoyed her stay. The house is remote so we were able to let her run off leash without any issues (she's not a runner). There is a property next door but the people staying there were quiet during our stay. Made good use of the kayaks and canoes. If you're out on the lake, make sure you visit the larger section of the lake. The passage was easy to find on the far side and it's beautiful. Weather was perfect in early June and, with the property being open, we didn't have any issues with flies or mosquitos. If my kids were writing this review, they would point out that there are no working TVs in the bedrooms. The only thing we found missing from the kitchen that we could have used was a complete set of measuring cups and spoons, but we made do. The house is in dirt road country, but the roads were all well maintained and we did not need 4wd during our stay with the exception of one wrong turn onto a road that wasn't a road (thanks Google Maps). Cell and GPS reception are poor in the area so make sure you grab directions before you leave the house. All in all, we would happily stay in this house again.

    Our family had a great time staying here for the week. We enjoyed the couple of super hot days on the lake, in and on the water. And, spent some time on the cooler days checking out the area - shipwrecks in Lake Superior, exploring the painted rocks and waterfalls and shopping the many shops in Munising. The communication with the owners was great, very responsive when we had questions. I wouldstay here again if we come back to the UP. And if you're looking for more space for additional family or friends to stay, have them check out Snowshoe just next door. We had additional family that stayed there so we all could vacation together.

    We enjoyed staying at the chalet on Sixteen Mile Lake! We were all very comfortable and woke up to a beautiful snowy, winter scene! We only stayed one night but we enjoyed playing a board game by the fire place, and we appreciated the little details, like the books and figurines in the bunk room. A great experience!

    A beautiful scene on winter days. A wall to wall and floor to ceiling view of the lake. Snow deep enough to swallow yardsticks. A frozen forest and hardened lakes, reflecting the sky off the ice. A warm fire and a giant hearth. Blankets and quilts and couches for all. Local markets with fish and Munising welcome. A four star restaurant in town. A long drive through the woods and solace and silence. 10 out of 10.Great location, newer accommodations. A carefully maintained site. Ready when we arrived. Great work. Well done!

    We have stayed at VRBO houses in the U.P for the last 6 years. This is by far the nicest house we have rented. Seems quite new. Well maintained, perfect layout, up to date appliances. Beautiful, quiet lake. Good swimming spot. Quality canoes and kayaks. The only negative is that the fishing was pretty poor. Highly recommended house.
