    What a view! This quaint, rustic cottage boasts a gorgeous view of the lake from its living room window. It is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We spent our days exploring Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, chasing waterfalls and seeing local sights. Our evenings were spent sipping wine by a fire in the beautiful stone fireplace. My husband enjoyed fishing from the dock in the mornings. We would book this cabin again if we returned to the area.

    Had a great experience and is a beautiful location. It’s just remote enough for privacy but close enough to multiple activities and sightseeing spots. Well maintained, clean, and easy communication with the owners. We even saw fresh water jellyfish in the lake; don’t worry they don’t stink and are only the size of a quarter, completely harmless. Campfires by the lake at night were a perfect way to end the day.

    What a charming cottage! Warm and inviting and ready to go. The location was nice, close enough to things to do, but isolated enough to enjoy tranquility.

    We were definitely excited to stay here, but even more excited when we pulled up to the space. It’s very private, serene and comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing outside by the water, using the boat for fishing and cooking in the well stocked kitchen. The space is clean and comfortable. We will definitely be back!

    Check in process was made way more difficult than it needed to be. We rented through VRBO but then was emailed a contract by the owner. A lengthy contract, then she added the pet fee that was included in the VRBO rental. Place needs attention was not very clean. Beds are in horrible shape. Had to clean it ourselves as it was not clean at all.

    Just returned home from a wonderful week at a wonderful cabin in a wonderful location. Rainbow's Promise was adorable, sparking clean and stocked with everything we needed inside (bed linens, towels, kitchen items, toaster, coffee maker, microwave). Additionally, the property was set up for a relaxing stay with a charcoal grill. great firepit, chairs, rowboat (with oars and life jackets) and even a clothesline. We brought our own kayaks and loved launching from the dock. The location was just lovely and conveniently located about 15 miles from Munising MI. There are two small general stores just a bit south of the cabin on Forest Road 13 for essentials. Midland General Store also has an ice cream counter, operated by the friendliest folks! There is a Dollar General on the way to Munising and a full service grocery store in town. We loved visiting some of the numerous water falls in the area and hiking the beautiful trails in the Hiawatha National Forest. We had wonderful trips on Pictured Rocks Kayak Cruises and the Glassbottom Shipwreck Tour. The owner was very easy to communicate with and check in/out was seamless. She even left us a welcome treat. I highly recommend this location to folks who want to experience the Upper Peninsula and visit the amazing Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

    The cabin was as advertised and more. Situated in Hiawatha National Forest, this cabin had everything we needed for a relaxing trip to the Upper Peninsula. It was a short, 15 min drive to Lake Superior and Pictured Rock Lakeshore. The cabin itself was clean and roomy for a couple. The owner also provided clear instructions for the house and great recommendations for town.
