About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Connie's Little House

Connie's, cozy, little log cabin is surrounded amongst 10 secluded acres of hard woods and pines. The property is shared with two neighboring cabins and provides you your own upnorth experience and privacy. Doggies welcomed for an additional cost.

At Connie’s, you'll want to wake up early and sit on the patio with a cup of coffee enjoying the morning sunrise. Take a stroll down the hand made trails system by walking, snowshoeing or even cross country skiing on them too. With plenty of space, bring up your toys and go on nearby snowmobile trails in the winter time or side x side in the off seasons!

Connie's Little House can accommodate up to 6 people with a Queen size bed in the single bedroom and a twin bed and twin over full bunk bed in the secondary bedroom. We Roku smart TV and Starlink high speed internet and Wi-Fi.

Connie's provides you with a full bathroom consisting of shower and tub combo and washer and dryer. It also gives you a fully stocked Kitchen with silverware, plates to serve 8 people, glasses, coffee maker, pots and pans along with a few pantry staples.

So, gather your loved ones around the yard to enjoy a summertime grill out. Let the kids run off some energy. Then as the evening starts, light the bonfire up to toast marshmallows amongst the stars. Be with family and friends again. Take a break and enjoy your retreat. (recommend bringing picnic/disposable plates, cups, silverware if eating outside)

Before you leave, sink into the hot tub, relax and rejoice on your days of adventures with family and friends. Read a good book sitting on the patio furniture. Or listen to nature. Welcome to Connie's Little House where it may be little, but its full of memories.

Sled trip
Wonderful cabin stay for long weekend. Blessed with early snowfall this year, we took our snowmobiles and had a great time. The place was very clean, the hosts were very accommodating. We loved the atmosphere and wood burning stove, we will be back!

Jamies place was so cozy and we had so much fun for a weekend get away. We would rebook in a heartbeat! Hot tub was awesome and it was so quiet. Very close to Gaylord but yet felt like we were in the middle of nowhere. Perfect escape for us for a weekend.

Early Spring Getaway
Great place! We loved our weekend at the cabin and the owners were very attentive. Everything was clean and well stocked with basics. We loved the hot tub and wood stove. The trails were great too. Due to the crazy MI weather, the dirt road was a mess. We were warned by the owner ahead of time and had 4x4. Not an issue for us but might be for some. Check out Forx in Elmira for an awesome meal.

Perfect winter Getaway!!
Cozy quiet cabin tucked back off the road. Jamie was an excellent host and the cabin was stocked everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The trails behind the cabin were wonderful for snowshoeing with our dog, then at night, the woodstove was nice and toasty. Lets not forget about that amazing hot tub. The view was perfect from the porch while it was snowing. Couldnt have asked for a better weekend. I would definitely go back. Thanks again Jon and Jamie.

Home away from home
I enjoyed staying in the cabin from beginning to the end. I appreciate how thoughtful the owners are with the decor and esp the cleanlinness. The cabin is spacious. Perfect for a small family. I loved how they created hiking trails aound the cabin. The pups were able to roam free and enjoyed every walking/running moments. The host was very quick to reply and was super friendly. Like chating with a good friend. Being helpful is always important as well. I couldn't thank them enough for opening up their cabins for traveleres like us. The hot tub was a plus! Great for sore muscles and aching backs. Do not pass this cabin up. Believe me. It is a great place to stay!

Best place to see the Fall colors.
We enjoyed our stay at the Little Cottage. There were a couple minor hiccups, but I don’t fault the owner for Mother Nature or Michigans Fall weather. Overall we were very satisfied with our stay.

Cute little cabin and VERY clean! Lots of little extras available that you don’t think about packing until it’s needed. Close enough to everywhere we planned on going, but secluded from all the everyday noises of life. Highly recommend if looking for a relaxing getaway.

The perfect escape
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Connie's. It was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. Our dogs enjoyed the trail behind the house. The location is perfect if you want to visit the Sky Bridge, Charlevoix, Deadman's hill and may other stops. Even though there are two other cabins on the property it was still peaceful and quiet.

Nice little cottage within reasonable distance of amenities.
We were very satisfied with our stay at this little, quiet cabin. The area is dead silent and surprisingly devoid of wildlife (or even bird variety). However, it’s ideally located for day trips throughout Northern Michigan (Traverse peninsula; Mackinac Island; even Ontario!). Would highly suggest using Gaylord as your base for restaurants, gas, shopping; only 11 miles away. Surrounding main roads are well-paved, and the side country roads/path to cabin are well-maintained and should provide traction in bad weather (which we saw absolutely NONE during an unusually warm September week in Michigan). Communication with landlord was excellent. Hot tub is quite spacious and hard to stay out of. Overall, highly recommended!

This is a beautiful property that is remote enough to enjoy peace and quiet, but close enough to many northern Michigan attractions. We enjoyed nature, food and the Boyne Skybridge.

A lovely little escape
This cozy little cottage is nestled away from the busy city and was the perfect escape for our anniversary. The hosts were lovely, and very communicative with lots of suggestions for things to do in the surrounding area. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, and cozying up around the fire at night. It had everything we needed for a perfect stay.

Wonderful quiet setting in the woods. Beautiful wildflowers and berry patches to explore. Nice short walking trails through the nearby woods. Conveniently distance to US 131 and nearby attractions while still away from the noise and Summer tourist traffic near the coastline. The owner did a nice job providing an artificial fragrance-free environment. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking implements.

Absolutely perfect for us!!
We had so much fun at this house. I brought our volleyball net and put it up out back and then we used the front yard as a baseball diamond for whiffle ball. We spent the evenings in the hot tub listening to music and watching the stars. We loved how spacious and peaceful it was. I brought two teenage girls and even they loved it! Absolutely will be back!
