Enchanting 4-Season Retreat in the Woods Near Trails Lakes and Resorts

Get away to this cabin in the woods and make the most of everything Northern Michigan has to offer. Hibernation Station is the quintessential outdoor getaway backing up to thousands of acres of state land where you can hit ATV and snowmobile trails, hunt, do some mushroom picking or hike. Our cabin is just around the corner from Little and Big Bear lakes great for swimming, fishing, boating and kayaking. Perfect for family fun, couple’s retreats, or a guys’ weekend for up to 8 guests!

In summer months enjoy the large deck backing up to the woods, a fire pit, outdoor bar, kayaks for the nearby lakes, miles and miles of trails for off-roading fun, and a huge pole barn to store all of your toys. Golfers can find three golf resorts all within a 25-minute drive!

When temperatures start to fall, take advantage of the snowmobile trails just steps from the cabin, local skiing, tubing, and snowshoeing, or hide inside in the warm cabin and checkout the snow from the abundant windows looking onto the beautiful winter scenery.

The cabin has everything you could need for your escape from the bustles of everyday life! The fully equipped kitchen includes a coffee maker, microwave, dishware, breakfast bar, and a dishwasher. There are two living spaces with TV, internet, and games all in a cozy setting. Towels and linens, ceiling fans, washer & dryer are just a few more things to ensure a carefree stay!

A couple of things to note!
Our property is located off of a two-track road. We highly recommend a four or all-wheel drive vehicle in winter months. While we do our best to keep it plowed, it's in the woods! Things get messy.
The only internet available is through a T-Mobile hotspot we provide. You can have multiple devices connected to the network and stream, which is how we provide cable (through YouTube TV). But again, you're in the woods, so we like to caution it's not as powerful or reliable as your cable or broadband internet in the city.

The perfect northern getaway
My family liked the pictures of the house online, but when we actually walked into the house we were blown away by the family/game/dining room. So beautiful, fun and definitely a place to come back to.

Weekend getaway
This property is an amazing place to stay for those interested in trail riding. Plenty of room for trailers and parking. Also plenty of entertainment inside of the cabin to keep us entertained when not out on the trails. Our group had a great time and will be happy to be back

Great Up North Getaway
My wife and I had a great time staying at the cabin. It was very spacious and had tons of activities/games that kept our evening busy. The location only a block away from Little Bear Lake was amazing and it's location gave up very quiet evenings. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.

Great cabin
Great cabin with lots of inside fun family activities. Host was a great communicator as I didn’t have much online cell service when arriving to get checked in. Would recommend a suv/truck as cabin is on a rough dirt road. Thanks for a good stay!

Just what we needed
The game room was a hit with the kids and us adults. We loved the open space and had plenty of room to be comfortable. The use of the barn was nice to store our side by side in. The location back in the woods made for great privacy and gave you the up north feel.

Cannot express how wonderful this cabin is. Ashley's attention to detail makes Hibernation Station one of the most welcoming places we've stayed. Almost don't want to tell anyone how great everything was so we can keep it our secret. Already planning our next trip back

Excellent.
Thank you so much for the stay at your Cabin. It is definitely the kind of place that my friend and I would love to be able to retire to. We love the winter and being out in an area where there is almost nobody around. I'm sure it isn't as quiet in the summer, but it was an awesome stay.

We had a great time! We appreciated the restaurant list in the welcome book. We spent a whole day just hanging out and playing all of the games. Wish the swing had been up and wanted a basketball for the hoop, but we had plenty to do.

Great Place!
Our family had a great get stay and fell in love with Northern Michigan! Loved how the cabin is nestled away in the woods where there was no one else besides 1 other neighbor. It was very nice and quiet. The cabin was very clean and very well stocked. The game room was a hit with the kids! Ashley was very responsive with messages if we had any questions. Definitely recommend this hibernation station!

Charming and fun
The home was very cute with a wonderful game room area in the back. The property was very well maintained and had everything we needed for our stay. We struggled to find the dirt road leading to the house…Waze didn’t seem to have the exact location but once we put the address in Apple Maps we had no trouble. Location is close to a lot of other towns. We spent our time exploring the many state parks and trails around the area. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Amazing Winter Getaway!
This place was exactly as the listing said, if not better! Ashley was a tremendous communicator. Place was loaded with games and fun! Beautiful area to hike out back in the State Forest. Absolutely will return, if in the area. Less than 30 minutes from skiing/snowboarding (Treetops and Otsego). Great place to get away and relax. Would be a perfect place to stay and never leave for a winter getaway!

Michigan
Everything was great about this property. The driveway was a bit rough getting in, but we were able to make it through without the need of 4wd. We wanted to bring snowmobiles, but MI winter wasn't cooperating. Either way, trail systems are within a short distance and we were able to take our tiny ATV's out. The place itself was great. Having the wood burning stove was super nice for cold weather without having to crank the heat. There are a ton of good games and activities to keep you occupied while indoors. 10/10 would book again.
