About this property
Cozy creekside cabin near Big Powderhorn's Lift #1 & Recreational Trail #2!!
Find winter fun and relaxation at our Northwoods getaway! Located just North of US Hwy 2 between Ironwood and Bessemer in Big Snow Country of Michigan’s Western Upper Peninsula, Waldhein is the red chalet with sand and slate-colored trim at the corner of Creekside Trail and Powderhorn Road. Conveniently located on your way to the main lodge of Big Powderhorn Mountain Resort, our pull-thru driveway accesses both roads, so parking is ample for multiple vehicles. No need to turn trailers around, just pull right on through!
We’re minutes from Blackjack and Indianhead Mountain for boarding and downhill skiing variety.
For your Big Powderhorn Mountain experiences, you can WALK up Powderhorn Road to Lift #1 (about 1200 ft), drive, or you can take the shuttle during snow season to the Gun Barrel Lodge or any of the other bars/restaurants in the Mountain area.
You have ride in/ride out access (leave your trailers in our driveway) to SNOWMOBILE & ATV TRAIL # 2.
Cross-country skiers can pole across the road for local Nordic trails and are in close proximity to the 26 Km Wolverine Nordic Cross Country Ski & Mountain Bike Trails.
Waldhein is a two-level chalet with front decks on the main and upper levels. The lower front deck with charcoal grill on the main level (except during snow season).
It has three private bedrooms (1 Queen on the main level, 2 Full-size bedroom on the upper level) and a lofted space with 2 Twin-sized beds. There is a bathroom available on each level (shower/tub combo on the main level, shower on upper level). The main level has a living room space, dining table and card table nook, all with a view of the central wood-burning fireplace! The kitchen is fully-stocked with anything you might need during your stay, including coffee and an assortment of teas and honey. Linens and most bath necessities are provided. You can enjoy free WiFi in the cozy atmosphere, with a woodburning fireplace that is perfect for cold winter nights.
ACCOMMODATES UP TO EIGHT PEOPLE.

About the host
Hosted by Owner - Waldhein Chalet
We’re the new owners of this adorable cabin, using it primarily as our family getaway in the beautiful Northwoods. We’re excited to share our place with vacationers, family and friends!
Why they chose this property
Set back in the tree colors of the season, our two level chalet has front decks on the main and upper level and a side deck with charcoal grill.
Ride in/ride out access is usually available for 100 plus miles of ATV fun on WI/MI TRAIL # 2, and we're in close proximity to the 26 Km Wolverine Mountain Bike Trails.
We’re only minutes from Copper Peak and the Black River Harbor on Lake Superior. Be sure to stop and see the waterfalls along the way down Black River Road which is also one of the most scenic fall color byways anywhere.
For the active Spring thru Fall vacationer, there are two public golf courses and boating, fishing, hunting, hiking, biking, climbing, and ATV trails.
You may also just sit on the deck and enjoy the scenery, sunshine, fresh mountain air. You may even hear the mountain stream that flows along the property into Powdermill Creek. Grill on the deck or enjoy one of the many Up North bars/restaurants if you want an evening out.

What makes this property unique
Easy access to recreational trails and Big Powderhorn lifts. Pull your trailer and snowmobiles right on through our double-access driveway and don’t worry about backing up or turning around. During the warmer months, relax on our deck or around our firepit and listen to the creek bubbling in our backyard. Explore more than 200 waterfalls in the area. This is a beautiful place to stay, no matter the season!
