A beautiful log cabin home on Lake Huron, amazing lake views, hot tub, game room
We have a hidden jewel waiting for you in Cheboygan, the McIntosh Solitude Lodge. It is a beautiful rustic log cabin overlooking Lake Huron. It's about 10 minutes east of town and right on US Hwy 23. The winding 450 ft. driveway that takes you to the cabin through beautiful woods affords privacy and envelops you in Nature! When you arrive, it looks like any other log cabin, but one look inside and you will be amazed at the solid-wood (knotty cedar) interior! There are 4 bedrooms and 2 baths; 2200 sq ft of beautiful lodge style living space. There is a loft bedroom containing a queen bed and ensuite bath. Two bedrooms are on the main floor, one with a full bed and the second with twin bunk beds, perfect for the kids in your party. The lower level bedroom also has a full bed. The main level incorporates a large living/dining area along with an open kitchen. The view of the lake is spectacular from here. The family/game room is on the lower level, along with a laundry room. Sliding glass doors lead to the hot tub, fire pit , outdoor dining area, and stairway to the beach. There are two beautiful porches on the cabin. The back porch looks out over an ever-changing panorama of one of the great views of the great lakes. Who goes to the McIntosh Lodge? Families, couples looking for a private getaway, a small group of friends. It's an out-of-the-way intimate and romantic nest to spend some quality time. Many guests come back annually to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries. The common thread of all our guests is a desire for privacy, time apart from the maddening pace of life and looking for a splendid way to recharge batteries. The cabin is about 400 feet from the water, and the sound of the waves at night will lull you to sleep very quickly. The trail down to the beach is a wonderful 1-minute nature walk, the beach stretches as far as you can see in either direction. The lake is perfect for sunning, reading a book in a beach chair, rock collecting and hopping into the crystal-clear waters whenever you want!
Best wishes from us both, Dale and Kirsten

Fully stocked house, game room and hot tub were a blast. Path down to beach was a bit steap but manageable. Nice distance to see a bit secluded but close to where we were visiting. Hope to return in summertime at some point!
Dale was amazing from the start. A few months before our stay, we asked to move our days just by a day and he did. He ensured we got in to town and the cabin and provided information on the area. We enjoyed the view, collecting rocks on the beach, walking the back trail area. Went into town but stayed at the cabin mostly. The hot tub was a hit for us along with the pool table. The cabin had all the main items we needed and then some.Thanks for the memories.
Dale was great at answering questions. The cabin was amazing and peaceful! The hot tub was great with the chilly weather. The game room was a blast. We had such a good time and can’t wait to go back!
This beautiful, well maintained property. The cabin is beautiul, the fireplace is cozy and the hot tub overlooking Lake Huron is a beautiful place to relax. This place is great because there is room for many people to gather and not feel crowded. There is also a gameroom with fun things to do for everyone. There is also a beautiful view from every window. The hosts were also great.
Amazing stay yet again. Peaceful quiet and amazing views. Home is comfortable and cozy on cool nights. Hot tub never disappoints. Kids had amazing time playing all of the fun games. Thank you for an amazing winter getaway.
What a perfect experience. The host was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area to help guide us. The cabin was very well done and comfortable. We really enjoyed the hot tub and the view.
The hot tub was great.The view of the lake with the ice floating south was great.We had a few problems with the VCR trying to get them to work but all and all had a very relaxing weekend.Will definitely rent this place again
The view was amazing and the cabin was clean and perfect for our stay! It was secluded but also had a lot to do with a short drive to other places. Super cozy! We will be back!
We loved that there was a vehicle path to get down to the lake along with the foot path from the cabin. Cabin was immaculate. We couldn't have asked for a better stay.
Beautiful cabin on Lake Huron. All the necessities provided including towels for rhe hot tub. Hot tub was great and weather was great. Definitely will be back.
The cabin and lake are both beautiful. The owner was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a nice quiet getaway on lake huron.
My family and I had such a great experience here. The home is absolutely beautiful and fully stoked with anything and everything you could possibly need to have a good stay. The hot tub was one of our favorite things- but honestly everything was wonderful. The porch has a perfect view of lake huron, having direct lake access is great, and being just around the corner from Cheboygan state park was a great perk. We loved our stay and hope to be back at some point!
Beautiful, clean, great views, easy check in, fantastic host with great communication and so much more! 5 stars all around, would stay again in a heartbeat!
Spacious, clean, beautiful views. 2 familes stayed comfortably. Loved drinking coffee on the balcony in the morning.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this place when we first entered the driveway. We knew this was the place we had been looking for, a quiet getaway to recharge our batteries. If you are looking for a quiet, secluded place to get away, renew, refresh, McIntosh Solitude Lodge is it. Nestled deep in the woods our log cabin offers all the comforts of home, off the beaten path. stairs lead you down the hill to our private rock strewn beach. Wildlife is abundant as deer, red fox, loons, bald eagles, and swan, call the lake and woods home. We are an easy drive to the ferry for Mackinaw Island & a short drive for groceries or a movie in Cheboygan.
