Big Lake Cabin with Hot Tub/ Kayaks/ Ping Pong/ Cable
The "Sunshine Cabin" enjoys ample natural sun year around from its lofty position up in the trees. The large picture window overlooking Big Lake provides a birds eye view of both the canopy and lake. This 81’ deep lake has an island and home to many types of fish that's why we brought fishing/recreational kayaks for our guests. The boat launch access is just 1.6 miles from the sunshine cabin. The cabin is secluded on 1.45 acres of trees. This listing is all about the experience.

Perfect place to get away and relax. Plenty of great places to check out in the area. Cozy, clean, a little home away from home feeling. The owners are very helpful with everything.
Lovely treehouse experience, peaceful, and autumn colors! We were quite impressed that the owners checked in with us a couple times during our stay. Very helpful and very prompt in replying to text. Overall wonderful stay!
My wife and I and our 2 dogs had a great time at this splendid property. The ownership was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The property is well stocked with most anything you would need and then some. Amongst the trees, the natural views are impressive. On a nightly basis, we had barred owls calling all around us, and you could hear the loons on the lake in the morning. The beds are very comfortable. This is truly a great place to step away for a few days or a week. Will be back.
Enjoyed our stay. Very quiet pet friendly cabin. Our dogs loved playing outside and inside. A very simple, short drive into Gaylord. Host is very responsive and easy to work with. I’d definitely recommend.
The house looked just like the pictures! Beautiful & clean. Garage rec area was fun! Had a good stay. Would definitely recommend. Thanks for hosting us.
Although the weather did not cooperate for the primary purpose of the stay (snowmobiling), the accommodations' ensured a pleasant Northern Michigan experience. Very comfortable property for a couple or small group.
My family of five (kids 12, 10, and 7) had a great time here. We didn't have much snow. But we were more than happy playing ping pong and enjoying the hot tub. They especially liked the hot cocoa bar. Everything was as shown in the photos and well kept. Very satisfied.
This home is beautiful! The sidewalk was well maintained each day during the snow. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Plenty of blankets. Great basement space with cornhole, pingpong and a hot tub. We loved it and have zero negative feedback. It was perfect! Highly recommend staying here!
The cabin was very clean and close to the lake. It was very close to the shopping in Gaylord, yet you felt you were more in the country. The cabin had a very nice garage area that they made into a recreational area which my family loved the ping pong table and the hot tub!! They also had kayaks available. They even had beds for our fur babies!! They had an adorable Coffee bar that had flavored syrups. They had many nice extras you normally do not see in a cabin rental. I would highly recommend this cabin to friends and family.
We rented this cabin and it was so nice! Beautiful setting nestled in the trees. Cozy setting, with everything you’d need.
Of course we picked the cold snap that went through but that didn’t stop our sightseeing of the colors.
We lost power and our host was so helpful in keeping us updated and offering us extra supplies. The little fireplace kept the home warm and power was back on shortly.
I would highly recommend this gem!!!
Property was perfect to relax and enjoy nature around a bonfire. The property was stocked well even with plenty of Kleenex and toilet paper which not all VRBO's supply. Coffee, snacks and coffee syrups were provided....nice touch. Everything was clean and pretty new so no issues there. We did have to drive the kayaks around the corner to get on the lake but was painless. The place was close to Gaylord and Treetops that made it nice. The owner was easy to communicate with I'd recommend this property for a nice quiet getaway.
We had one of the best experiences on this stay that we’ve ever had. From the beginning, our hosts were great with responses and communication. We were able to get to our 20th anniversary getaway easily and in the door with no problems. The neighborhood was very pretty and quiet with almost no traffic going past. We had our 2 dogs and took many walks and I think we saw one car going past. The city of Gaylord is very close by so if you forgot something, you can just run out and get what you need easily. The whole place was immaculately clean and lovely upon entering. We had several days of kid free time (although our teens would have really liked it there too, it was lovely) so we opted to cook every meal there. The kitchen was delightfully and perfectly stocked, from cooking supplies, all the spices, you name it, they had it! They had a complete coffee, tea and hot chocolate bar that rivaled Starbucks (along with chocolates!). The bed was cozy and inviting, the indoor hot tub was well maintained and a great temperature, complete with towels and robe right at hand. The huge screen TV had a great cable package. Even the two dog mattresses were top-notch. You simply cannot find a nicer quality place to stay for the value. We give them 2 thumbs up!! Thank you for a great time!!
This was one of the cleanest and nicest cabins that we have stayed in. The host was very friendly and responsive and answered all of our questions within minutes of messaging. We will definitely be back.
