The cabin on thunder Lake is very nice. It’s a well kept and and clean. We had a nice stay . It was relaxing with some fishing and some sightseeing around the area but overall we enjoyed staying at this cabin and they got it’s better than what the picture is showing. They got a regular deck now all around in picnic table up on the deck with Grill and a garage in the Store stuff in so there’s a lot about this place that store really like and I really don’t have anything really negative to say except for thank you very much to the owners.

Love this cabin!

We loved this cozy cabin! The kids really liked sleeping in the loft. I loved the front porch! It would be nice in summer time. It’s a great destination to stay at in the UP, close by kitch-iti-kipi ! Very well stocked kitchen, and plenty of games to play!

Perfect place to stay for snowmobiling

The Thunder Cove Cabin is just about perfect, everything is well cared for, warm and nice personal touches throughout. Two of us stayed and snowmobiled and there was more then a enough room, and with a loft and pull out, four adults is very possible, or two adults and a couple children. The location is close to the trail system about a mile and a half away and pretty easy to access. All in all very nice cabin and would definitely stay there again. Thanks to Kim & Gordie for providing such a great place to stay.

Cozy Cabin

It seemed as though owners thought of everything we could need! It has a well-stocked kitchen and many things are provided by owners. It is located in a beautiful area close to Hiawatha Nat’l Forest for quiet hikes and is not far from many great spots to visit. Restaurant options are not great but the grocery store in Manistique was a pleasant surprise so we cooked at the cabin. All-in-all, we’d rent again.

Great cabin.

Nice cabin. Window Ac did fine. Kids were able to use the loft or sleeping arrangements might have been cozy for us. Its a clip from Manastique and Munising, which we rldrove to or around every day. Grill/griddle was inoperable and cleaners were 90 minutes late which delayed checkin but honestly, not a big deal. Would def stay again!

Well stocked and fairly clean but several issues including washing machine would not run past initial adding water cycle, dirty carpet and shower mat, no screens on bedroom windows so no fresh air flow, multiple light bulbs not working, fire pit area and chairs run down and incorrect wifi pw provided. Also, the place is not nearly as new or nice as the pictures present it to be. Host was friendly but the property needs some help.

Ice Fished out on the lake for several hours a day. Didn’t catch anything, and didn’t care. Excellent option for escaping the real world to sit around, relax, play cards and enjoy yourself. I would absolutely recommend this property to other visitors. Excellent commute to Manistique. Can’t beat it.
