Come experience “up north” in all of its rugged glory. Nestled among trails in the Hiawatha region of Munising, MI (next to Haywire Trail #8), The Log Cabin Retreat is also situated in very close proximity to the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

This is the PERFECT location with quick access to everything the area has to offer. Enjoy snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice climbing and ice fishing in the winter; hiking, ATVing, mountain biking, swimming, beaching, fishing and kayaking/canoeing in the summer. There is plenty to do in the area and the Log Cabin Crew is ALWAYS happy to help you out!

The Log Cabin Retreat is surrounded by 20 acres of private, wooded property. Luxuriate in solitude or enjoy Munising – your choice! The conveniences of town are just a short (10 minute) drive away. The famous Bear Trap Inn (restaurant and bar) is just 1/4 of a mile down the road: Our guests have always loved this place. Kewadin Casino in Christmas, MI is about a 20 minutes’ drive.

The cabin is quaint enough for one family, yet accommodating enough to comfortably host larger parties of up to 16. There are four bedrooms and two bathrooms on the basement and main floor levels, plus a loft.

Park your snowmobile trailers and trucks in the large driveway – there's tons of space to pull in and pull out (no need to back up). Stoke up the fire and relax. Imbibe at the bar. Take in forest and wildlife views from the comfort of the deck. Cook up a feast on the gas grill. Roast marshmallows and enjoy each other's company around the fire.

The cabin is yours to enjoy during your stay. There’s plenty of room here to do what you like. Make memories; do things your way. The kitchen is fully stocked. The living room is plush. The basement is fully furnished; laid-back. All bedding, bath towels and toiletries are included.

Most of our guests are repeat guests… Come and find out why!

Guys Trip

Rented this cabin for a guys trip weekend. Everything was great except for a bit of water coming into the basement in a few spots due to the springtime melt. Other than that, the place was perfect, clean, and in a good location.

Snowmobile Trip

This perfect cabin for snowmobile trail access. One block away from the Trailhead and The Bear Trap! Very clean, lots of space to relax after a long day on the trails. Lots of parking for trucks and trailer we had 5 trucks/trailers (2- 4 places, 2- 2 places ), never ran out of hot water with all the people (we had 11 people). We would stay here again in a heartbeat and plan to soon! Thanks for having us!

The best gathering place

The whole family had an exceptional time at the Log Cabin Retreat. The house itself has top-notch vibes with tons of sleeping space. The grounds allow for plenty of activities, lawn games, etc. I can’t recommend the LCR highly enough, and I can’t wait to visit again.

Great family getaway

The cabin was great for our large family. We loved all the woodsy decor, the personalization of towels and glasses. The kids loved the surround sound. We spent a lot of time on the deck waiting for bears, but unfortunately they didn't venture over to us. Just a heads up, for anyone with mobility problems, the beds are quite high! Overall great stay. Would definitely stay again.

Super nice

The property was great. The online description matched the real thing. The location is ideal as its vlose to Munising downtown as well as the Paddling Michigan kayaking checkin. The rooms and bathrooms were clean. The appliances except for the coffee maker worked great. Ariana, the house manager was super responsive. I would recommend this propoerty to everyone.
