About the host
Hosted by David and Bridget Coffey

My family and I escaped the big city hustle almost 20 years ago to enjoy all that Northern Michigan has to offer. When the opportunity availed itself to purchase the Little Red Cabin, we could not resist!
Why they chose this property
We love the scenic Pine River corridor area and all that it has to offer. Whether you are traveling by canoe, kayak, bike, foot, skis, or snowmobile, there are miles and miles of beautiful streams and trails to explore.
What makes this property unique
The Little Red Cabin is known for being cozy and comfortable on the inside and quiet and peaceful on the outside. Our perfect day at The Little Red Cabin starts with coffee on the back porch followed by a day on the Pine River and finally ending with a campfire under a blanket of stars and Hemlock branches.
