About this property
Intimate Cabin Off The Beaten Path
Minutes from the Kingsley Club yet only 14 miles from downtown Traverse City!
From the covered porch, past the fire pit, walk down the stairs, to historic railroad tracks that hold their majestic beauty. Then continue down the wood chipped path to 100 ft of Northern Michigan's Boardman River, a blue ribbon trout stream!
The cabin can sleep four comfortably. The one bedroom accommodates two with the full bed. Also full size futon, and twin sleeper sofa. The loft is spacious, and can be staged for our guests with one king mattress or two twin mattresses. A total of up to four guests are welcome. Additional guests may be considered, and will be an additional fee per day.
The nearby adventures that await are: snow shoeing, skiing, (cross country and downhill), kayaking, horseback riding, hunting, fishing, hiking, golfing, snowmobiling, (trail 510), wineries and color tours.
❄️ Please note- during winter months -with any amount of snowfall- an AWD, 4WD, or snow tires on the vehicle would be necessary. The cabin is 2 miles off the main road. ❄️
Whether one wants to enjoy the tranquility of the cabin or are intrigued by the energy of the river... memories will forever be engrained.

Such a beautiful, peaceful cabin! It exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to make memories and disconnect from the world. The hosts were wonderful and this cabin has now became an absolute place to stay once a year at. Highly recommend to anyone trying to get away and refresh and reconnect.
Relaxing place to stay; we will return to possibly enjoy the snowmobile season with our family. This cabin has everything you would need to enjoy a peaceful vacation away from home.
Jodi was very friendly, attentive and accommodating. The cabin was spotless and was very warm and cozy to stay in. Located on a beautiful piece of property, off the beaten path but still very close to attractions nearby. I could have spent weeks there - would love to stay here again someday!
Wonderful location for walks, communing with nature and hanging out with loved ones. Host is always on call to answer questions in the cabin has everything you need. Wonderful getaway.
We had a great time! The cabin and property are so beautiful. The hosts communicated with us well and all the little details were taken care of. We spent so much time down by the river, it was so gorgeous. We look forward to staying there again sometime!
Without a doubt this place was absolutely amazing! The cabin is beautiful, clean, and perfect in every single way. The hosts were absolutely wonderful! There's so much to do! We didn't want to leave!
Amazing property tucked away in a wooded area. Located about 25 minutes from the heart of Traverse City, but far away from the hustle & bustle. My husband and I celebrated our Anniversary here. Loved the river, hiking, and the evening fires. Hosts had excellent communication. We really enjoyed our stay.
My husband and I really enjoyed our long weekend at the cabin. The location feels very secluded, but is still close to everything. The trek down to the river dock and the cute nature trails were such fun features.
The cabin was absolutely lovely and exactly as described in the listing. It’s a charming little gem, and it’s clear the owners put a lot of care into making the stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Communication with the owner was excellent. The location was perfect — close enough to Traverse City for convenience, yet far enough to enjoy peace and solitude. I couldn’t recommend this listing more highly!
