This rustic cabin comfortably slept 5 adults. The place was spotless, and the kitchen and bathrooms were updated. It was great to have 2 full bathrooms for us to use. The overall vibe was old-fashioned and relaxing, and the river outside the front door was wonderful!

Great cabin right on the river. Quiet neighborhood and perfect location for Lake Superior beach access with a 15 minute drive to Munising and only 40 mins to Marquette. Cabin is clean, with comfortable large beds, 2 bathrooms, and all the kitchen essentials you need. Grill works great too!

Loved the rustic cottage and peaceful river just out front. Cottage quite clean but I was surprised to find that someone had put some plates away dirty so I washed all the dishes we used before using. Otherwise a very enjoyable place to be.

Awesome Cabin

We stayed here several nights. It was easy to get to. The cabin was fully furnished. Right on the river. Centrally located to what we were visiting in the area. Host was quick to respond. It is a rustic area and the cabin felt rustic as well. We couldn’t beat the view! Would return, for sure!

The location was great but the interior of the cabin was very old especially the kitchen. Inside cleanliness was okay but the exterior was moldy and gross. When we pulled up I was very concerned about what the inside would be like. There were no plates and the rest of the kitchen was very poorly stocked.

Excellent stay!

This is our second year staying with this property owner /location. This cabin is phenomenal! It is close to Munising, the river location makes kayaking during our stay so easy, and we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our week. Highly recommend and will stay again!

Cozy cabin

We had a very good stay at this cabin which we thought was a very good value for the price. The second bathroom was great for four adults on vacation. The location was very handy for activities in Munising and Marquette.

Old Time Cottage Charm

The location along the River is charming with a long porch to sit on and enjoy the view. The cabin was okay with well equipped kitchen. Furniture is old and worn out and could use some upgrades.

Cabin on Au Train River

Smooth process booking. Good communication from owner. Cabin on River as described. Traveling with a dog, and she loved the river access! It was chilly the first day, but the electric fireplace warm the cabin quickly. By day 3 needed air conditioning, and that was fine. Would book again.

Nice Cabin

Very nice location. Nice atmosphere and cabin like experience. One bed downstairs was very nice and one upstairs was also. The other 2 beds need upgrades but would work for kids. Some furniture upgrades would be nice too. But we would stay again if we ever went up that way.

Vrbo picture is inaccurate

Clean, older cabin. The picture shows a simple white sided cabin. It does not show the cabin 6 feet to the side, with all kinds of stuff in the the yard. Also, the area has some nice smaller cabins, and some pretty run down cabins. Inside, just fine, outside, not so nice

UP vacation

Location was excellent for all our group wanted to do. The cabin was in stages of upgrades. Many parts needed serious upgrades. The kitchen was not well stocked. There were virtually no cleaning supplies except for dish and hand soap. With some work this could be an ideal cabin.

CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK

Not only was the cottage beautiful, it had everything we needed. I didn't have to worry about packing anything except clothes and food...it truly was a home away from home. The river is beautiful and peaceful, and the location was perfect. Although it is around other cottages, it still feels secluded, but with easy access to more activities than you could possibly squeeze into one trip. Best of all, the owner, Cory, was responsive, accommodating, and kind. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in / around Munising and actually am looking into a return visit for this fall!

Great space. Not as clean as I’d like…

Very convenient 2 bathrooms. Good price. I wish it was a little cleaner. Nice to be right on the river. Great spot between Munising and Marquette. Furniture was very dated. That being said, if I knew the sheets were clean I’d stay again. Cory is easy to communicate with.

Retro cottage

This cottage has great views of the river from a large front porch. It is set up to feel like a cottage from the 70s, but everything works. The kitchen was well equipped. The wifi was good. The walls are thin, and the ceiling in the loft is low but it works. The water was unpleasant even using the new Britta provided by the owner. There was a nice supply of puzzles and games provided. There are kayak rentals a short walk away, and it is an easy drive to many outdoor activities. The owner responded quickly to our questions and requests.
