Turtle cove

We had a fantastic stay. House was very clean. Had everything you need I think only one car went by in 4 days when we were there. No one next door so it was so peaceful. We used the Kayaks. The lake is little but so quiet. No speed boats. We will be back some day!!!! Thank You!!!!

Another great trip to Hiawatha

This is my second fall trip to the Turtle Cove property in Hiawatha National Forest. The house and property were excellent, clean, and ready when we get in the first evening. The location made for great adventures and the morning views of the fall colors were excellent as I sipped my coffee. I will look to stay at this property again on my next visit to the area.

Long weekend away

There is so much to do in this area. This house was the perfect quiet after a busy day. The lake is quiet, the fish are biting, the house is cozy with a wonderful cross breeze and the beds are comfortable. Hope to return next summer.

Cute, cozy place to get away

My family of 5 stayed in this home for the week of the Fourth. We felt like we were in our own up north cabin. It was easy to find with the directions they provide, and the cabin was stocked with everything you could need.

Serenity at a no wake lake

Quaint, nice cabin. Off the beaten path, yet close to general store and daytrip excursions. Enjoyed the kayaks and rowboat. Fishing brought in our largest bass to date. Appreciated the fire pit. Really enjoyed the stay.

Enjoyable stay.

Enjoyed staying at this property. My family and I stayed and enjoyed spending time together. The sun set was spectacular, so beautiful and gold in color. My grandkid took the kayak out fishing in the mornings. Would love to checkout their other properties. From my family to yours, Thank You So Much.

Clean, Pet Friendly

Good location near Munising and several attractions. The property was clean and had plenty of bedding and towels. We used both the grill and fireplace, which was great! The only downsides were that the beds were very squeaky, so not good for light sleepers, and the beach isn’t really one you would swim in due to the algae and muck - still enjoyed sitting lakeside tho! We also had our dog, and it was great to find a place that was pet friendly.

Cute

Super cute and comfy cabin, my family really enjoyed staying here. They have a boat or kayaks for you to use, along with fishing poles and life vests. I have stayed in variety of cabins in northern Minnesota on Lake superior and None of them had half the amenities nor all the room this one had to offer at a much smaller price. We were all sad that it was only a small stop on a much longer journey. We definatly plan to stay again!

Good location, house needs some investment

Property was clean, had a nice layout and good location. The furniture needs an upgrade, the couch and recliner, mattresses and outdoor chairs all need replacement. If you’re using this as a place to sleep and eat, probably fine but if you plan to spend any time here be prepared for no comfortable place to sit and hang out. We booked because we thought the price was lower but with the fees it wasn’t close to the $280 per night. It has great potential but some money needs to be invested in the place
