The Double D Lodge was absolutely perfect for our stay. It was even more beautiful and spacious than it looked in photos. I couldn’t recommend it more highly. If we plan another trip to Arnold, this is where we’ll be staying!

We have taken several vacations to Michigan over the years and this was our second time to the UP. This home was by far the best we've stayed at. The listing really doesn't do it justice. The home was very clean, beds were comfortable, plenty of space, the kitchen was overstocked, the furniture and decor were nice and not beat up at all like you get with some places. It is out in the middle of nowhere, but that's what we wanted. Easy enough day trips to anywhere in the UP. Pictures Rocks, Soo Locks, Keweenaw, Michigan shore, Superior shore, plenty of waterfalls and a great home to come back and relax at. Thank you for such a great vacation. Highly recommend checking this home out to anyone.

One of the nicest places we have stayed at in the over 20 years of snowmobiling in the upper peninsula. Trail access is right down the road along with fuel less than a half a mile away. The accommodations could not have been better, this is a hidden gem, will absolutely come back next season.

Our group of three couples recently stayed at DD Lodge, and it was one of the best vacation rentals we've experienced.The home itself is beautiful and full of interesting history. We chose it because of its location near the trails for our side-by-sides, and it proved to be the perfect base for our trip.One of our favorite features was the enclosed porch, where we spent a lot of time relaxing and visiting together. The craftsmanship throughout the lodge is evident and adds to its beauty and charm. Every space felt thoughtfully designed with guests in mind. Having three full bathrooms gave each couple their own privacy, while the finished garage and expansive mudroom provided ample space for the gear and supplies we brought along. Unlike many rentals that feel crowded with the owner's belongings, DD Lodge offered plenty of room for us to unpack, organize our things, and truly settle in. Keeping our equipment out of the living areas made a remarkable difference, creating a comfortable, uncluttered environment that genuinely felt like a home away from home rather than a place where we were simply borrowing someone else's space.We usually travel to a different area every year to explore new trails, but DD Lodge has set a very high standard. I'm afraid future rentals will be compared to this one and probably come up short. We had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend DD Lodge to anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient place to stay.

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods

The DD Lodge is very spacious and quiet in the woods. Very well stocked kitchen for cooking. We used it as a base for a golf trip. We did not access the trails but I can only image they are wonderful and direct access from the property. The main road to the cabin is totally paved which is great. We had a snafu on cleaning, but the owner was extremely responsive and handled It immediately. Would highly recommend staying at The DD!

Beautiful Home

We had a great time at this property. The house was HUGE, which gave us a lot of room to spread out. There were lots of items to use for cooking; pots, pans, dishes, serving platters, crock pot, etc. They had it all. It was also a very clean and well maintained property. There's also a nice fire pit on site and a two car garage to park your vehicles in. I would highly recommend this place to stay if you want to get away. We loved it!

Great getaway

The house was very spacious and had everything we wanted and needed. It was also secluded which was a plus for us. It was actually bigger than what the pictures said (which never happens!). All of the rooms were very well-decorated and cozy. Despite being in a more remote area, everything was very modern. I would definitely stay there again and would not hesitate to recommend! Thank you!

home away from home

We very much enjoyed our stay at the house. It was nice to come "home" after a day of fly fishing in the area and some site seeing. The kitchen had all the essentials and we ate dinner most nights at the house. Beds were comfortable as was the living room seating. Location was perfect for us to visit local streams and to see the Picture Rocks (boat ride was well worth the cost. Much better than seeing from the platforms above) I would recommend this house to other travelers. Communication with the owners was great - very responsive.

Beautiful Updated Lodge

The DD Lodge was even better than advertised. It is spacious, yet cozy and comfortable. We had just two of us and it felt welcoming and not too large, but it would accommodate large groups easily, too. DD Lodge has the feel of a traditional hunting camp, but is fully updated with absolutely beautiful finishes and conveniences. It was spotlessly clean. The host’s communication was everything I could have hoped for, making check-in and check-out easy. The property offers many activities on-site or nearby. We even saw the Northern Lights from the front yard. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect family vacation accommodations!

DD lodge was perfect for a long awaited extended family vacation. The lodge was spacious - even for 2 families of 4 and Grandpa and Grandma! The bedrooms had plenty of space for pack'n'play sleeping arrangements for our little ones and totes for all of our belongings (avid hikers). The lodge is arranged very well - the sleeping quarters is separate from the kitchen and living room so the younger kids could go to bed while we played with the older kids. They also creatively placed rock around the firepit which acts as a barrier to keep children or others from getting too close! This would be perfect for snowmobile trips - very close to the trail and huge mudroom to hang gear! Overall a great place to stay!

Lynnette, we are so glad you and your families enjoyed DD Lodge. We built it in mind for groups to gather that especially like to enjoy the outdoors - thus the mud room with individual sections for gear and coats etc. We welcome you back for the snowmobile trip. We are on trailhead 33 so direct access to the entire UP. Thank you again for staying and the nice review.

Absolutely perfect

From the booking process to the communication with the owners to the property and lodge itself…. You could not ask for a better experience. DD lodge is a perfect place to spend time with family. The lodge itself is beautiful and much larger than the pictures would suggest. Having spent my whole life up north I still felt like I was instantly on vacation the minute we walked in. Out of all the rentals I’ve utilized over the years for getaways this was by far and away the best experience . Strongly recommend checking this place out, no disappointments.

DD Lodge will not disappoint.

Tons of room. Fantastic furnishing, etc. Just a really neat place to stay. But be sure you are ready to be "off the grid" as far as civilization. Cell coverage is very spotty. And you are in the woods and a little drive from a gallon of milk. Which is exactly what we wanted. And Nancy is great. Will take care of anything you need. Overall A+++

Carrie we are so glad you all enjoyed your stay at DD Lodge and exploring the UP. Regarding cell coverage, ATT added a cell tower to our area recently so the best bet is ATT for cell coverage. The lodge also has excellent internet capabilities. There is also a land line phone at the lodge for emergencies. We do have a local store one mile from camp for gas and food. The UP version of a 7-11! I hope you had a chance to visit them. Thank you again and we look forward to a return visit.

Upper Peninsula family vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at DD Lodge. My family, ages ranging from 94 years to three years, and I booked this property for a family vacation and it was perfect! The Lodge is amazing, very spacious and beautiful! The property is very clean and very well maintained, with all the amenities we were looking for and more. We enjoyed our morning coffee and stargazing in the four-season room, grilling, and nighttime campfires roasting s’mores with the kids. The location of the lodge made it an easy drive to must see attractions and the Wells Township Park for a childhood/friends reunion. Our host Nancy was very nice, responsive and promptly communicated with us, making it a smooth process before, during and after our stay. Very much appreciated the “welcome information”that was sent about DD Lodge, directions, things to do, etc. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend DD Lodge when visiting the U.P.
