About this property
Lovely cabin with AC in charming Custer
Discover the beauty of Custer from this cozy cabin located inside a century old barn on 65 acres. We do have mowed walking paths throughout the property as well. Guests can unwind in the tranquil setting, while having many amenities but also enjoy the great outdoors. The cabin has a comfortable full size bed, perfect for a peaceful night's sleep. The sofa also makes into twin size bed and there is also a deluxe camping cot so there's plenty of space for 4 people. There is also a large grassy area just outside the cabin which is perfect for pitching a tent or two for additional guests or a great place for the kids. The cabin features heating and AC for an enjoyable stay. The bathroom offers a a flush toilet and there is an exhilarating outdoor shower with hot water. We also have a hairdryer for added convenience. We have a fully equipped kitchen with a 4 burner electric stove, refrigerator/freezer, microwave & Keurig coffee maker. There is also various board games for those times when you just want to wind down. The outside space includes a firepit, picnic table, patio table & chairs, adirondack chairs and camp chairs. We also have a charcoal grill, corn hole boards, tiki torches and we do provide one free bundle of wood (additional bundles available at $5 each). Escape to this phenomenal retreat and experience the serenity of nature.
We are only a 20 minute drive from beautiful downtown Ludington or downtown Pentwater, both have great beaches and wonderful shops and restaurants. The Wild & Scenic Pere Marquette River is only 1 mile away and the North Country Trail is also just a short drive away. ORV's are also allowed on our county roads so this is a great area to explore.
We look forward to hosting you at our place.

About the host
Hosted by Amy Williams
I grew up and currently live in beautiful Ludington Michigan. This barn and property has been in my family for 35 years as my parents purchased it in the early 1990's. My father built the cabin in the barn mainly as a hunting camp. My husband and I remodeled the cabin in 2024/2025 and decided to make it into a short-term rental so others could enjoy the beauty of northern Michigan.
Why they chose this property
The barn/cabin sits on 60 acres of a combination of beautiful hardwoods and open fields. You will likely see various forms of wildlife as you sit outside and enjoy a relaxing fire or take a walk around the property. We are also only about 1 mile from the Wild & Scenic Pere Marquette River as well as a short drive to downtown Ludington and it's beautiful beach or a short drive to the North Country Trail where you can hike or bike for miles.
What makes this property unique
If you are looking for a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of your busy life this is the place for you. This is the perfect place to stargaze without the city lights being in your way.
