Enjoy your vacation at our Hiawatha's Hideaway in the SPRING. We are so close to many lakes & streams. Fish for your dinner & watch as the beauty of the Hiawatha National Forest comes to life again! The area falls at this time of year are gushing with newly released water. Cameras are a must!!
In the SUMMER, enjoy your day biking, hiking, or sightseeing on Bruno's Run (within walking distance) and Pine Martin Run (nearby). Or, rent a canoe for a beautiful tour of The Indian River which is only a half of a mile from the house. Walk down to the general store to get an ice cream cone, or relax by a campfire in the back yard & roast marshmallows. There is also horse back riding just down the way a bit.
Lake Superior is only 12 miles north, so take a beautiful Pictured Rocks Cruise; glass bottom boat ride to view fish and shipwrecks; rent a kayak or jet ski; or, shop in one of many gift shops in Munising, then you can enjoy a fine meal at one of the many local restaurants.
A trip to the Hiawatha National Forest in the FALL is a photographers dream! Highway 13, being a scenic byway, is 36 miles long and full of color in the fall and the most gorgeous anywhere! This is also the perfect time and place for hunting partridge, deer & bear! Our favorite thing to do in the fall is to hike the 2-1/2 miles out to Chapel Rock which has a full view of Lake Superior.
On a warm, windy day, the waves of Lake Superior are huge, and encourage brave swimmers! Blueberry picking is another Fall activity we enjoy. Just ask and we will direct you to some great picking areas!
The WINTER in the Hiawatha National Forest is unbelievable! The beauty alone will blow you away, with newly fallen snow blanking pine trees creating a white tunnel throughout the forest. Snowmobiling, the biggest draw to the Upper Peninsula in the winter, is spectacular on the many miles of trails that take you through picturesque scenery you can only imagine!
Whatever winter activity you might enjoy...snowmobiling, cross country skiing (trails withing walking distance of the Hideaway), sledding, ice fishing, etc., Hiawatha's Hideaway is right in the center of everything, and since the Hideaway sits on 1 acre, you'll have plenty of privacy and quiet when you come back from a full day of riding, skiing, sledding or fishing, to rest and relax for the next days' activities. Stop along your travels to one of the many area restaurants to have a nice lunch or dinner, or ride back to the Hideaway and cook your own meal in our full kitchen.
Enjoy the many sights and sounds of the area. If you are lucky enough, you may even see deer, bear, wild rabbit and wild turkeys.
