Family lodge on private lake to enjoy fishing, hiking, nature and much more!

Entering the front door of the Lodge, you will walk into the open concept kitchen and dining area, which flows into the living room. This area boasts big windows, which provide unobstructed views of the lake and the spacious yard. The kitchen has everything necessary for preparing and enjoying meals; including refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, dishes, pots & pans and utensils.

Steps leading down to the full walkout basement and a full bath with tub and shower are in the center of the Lodge, with 2 big bedrooms in the back. The master bedroom is very private, with a sliding glass door that overlooks the lake. Step right outside from here and enjoy the scenic view! The second bedroom contains a set of double bunk beds along with another double bed.

A 12 foot wide deck runs across the entire front of the Lodge, which is a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee!

A gas grill is available, along with an adjustable hanging grill over the fire pit in the yard. Firewood is supplied for you to roast or grill any number of yummy treats — maybe a fresh fish dinner with s’mores for dessert — which you can enjoy eating at the picnic table that is provided. Then just sit and relax by the fire after your day of fun-filled activities!

A solar system provides electrical power for the Lodge, making it completely off grid. Propane fuel powers the refrigerator and stove, and each room has propane lights.

Ideal isolated and quiet cabin
Exactly what a quiet week Up North should be. Cabin was well-furnished, five (!!) different boats provided, firewood provided, quiet lake with, from what I could tell, 5 total cabins on it. Almost zero mosquitos, but a good amount of flies by the shore. Hosts escorted us to the property at check-in, which I was not used to, but because it's so far off the road that's really the best way to do it.

Excellent stay
Excellent stay in a very private, quiet, clean well equipped cabin. Beautiful setting. Kids had a ton of fun playing outside and having campfires. Convenient to Crystal Falls for supplies and a good deli and diner. Enjoyed the boat and electric trolling motor- some nice bass and pike in there. Excellent kind owners ensure a great stay. Highly recommend if you really want to unplug, relax and enjoy nature.

Amazing location and owners!
The cabin on the lake is amazing. Very quiet and relaxing and the cabin has all the comforts of home. The owners were tremendously helpful and went out of their way to answer all of our questions before and during our stay! Our family of five caught plenty of fish, saw wild life, swam in the lake and relaxed. The location is perfect for day trips to other areas of the U.P. As well. Thanks Dave and Nancy for making our stay so great!

Very pleasant and relaxing week
I thoroughly enjoyed the stay and hope to go back next year. Dave Young was extremely helpful and the lake was gorgeous. My wife and three kids and I had a great time. Everyone caught a fish. John

Home away from home!
Our family recently stayed here for a week and were so taken aback by how wonderful the cabin and surrounding area were! We were able to hear the whippoorwills at night and even heard the wolves howling! The place was sparkling clean and being a fully stocked house makes it easy to prepare meals and have a place big enough for the whole family to enjoy. There are also so many scenic trips to take and everything in the area is full of breathtaking sights. The lake is also very nice and the fish are plentiful! We will definitely be trying to come back as soon as possible!

GREAT vacation spot!!!
We recently stayed at the Lodge with our children and grandchildren and had a WONDERFUL time!! If you are looking for privacy and seclusion to get away and relax for a while, this is definitely the spot to do it! We were all very comfortable in the cabin -- there was plenty of room for all of us to stretch out. The owners were very accommodating and helpful for anything we might need. We fished every day both in the boat that is available and from the dock. The kids had a great time throwing their lines in down on the dock and caught quite a few different kinds of fish. There was even a bald eagle that flew from tree to tree right over top of us! It sure is an awesome sight to see that majestic bird!!! We also heard whippoorwills talking to each other right outside of the cabin. We took advantage of both the grill that is furnished and the cooking grate that hangs over the fire pit and had some delicious meals! It is a very short drive into Crystal Falls, which is the nearest town. We did some shopping at Ben Franklin and ate at Fob's Fine Food a couple of times (which is a must-do when you are there!) and also got lunch & ice cream at Sommers Sausage Shop & Grocery (don't let their name fool you -- they have a menu with quite a variety of sandwiches, fries, etc. and of course the desserts!). We enjoyed our vacation so much and definitely plan on going back to spend some more time there in the future!!!

Awesome Experience!
This place totally blew us away! It is simply incredible! The cabin is neat, clean, and in such a beautiful setting. The fish were plentiful, and we were immersed in nature. Everything was in working order in the cabin. The sleeping quarters were cozy and homey. The kitchen area and living room were very nicely furnished. The owners were very pleasant, communicate well, and were always a text away if we needed anything. You can tell that they put a lot of time into making this place what it is. When we arrived, they showed us how everything operated in the cabin, asked us if we needed anything further, and left us alone with nature. The place is extremely private and relaxing. We were so impressed, and will definitely be returning some day. It was a great vacation!

The title says it all, this was our honeymoon. This lodge has everything including privacy.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this property and plan to return as soon as possible. We hiked, hunted, fished and loved the privacy. The lodge is sparking clean and everything is provided.We enjoyed eating fresh fish and partridge. We saw deer, bear, eagles and heard the coyotes/wolves. The owners respected our privacy and even allowed us to archery hunt deer in an enclosed baited blind. We wanted a secluded/wilderness honeymoon with all the amenities and we were completely satisified.
