Too short

We really enjoyed our way too brief of a stay. The cabin is wonderfully restored to its classic rustiness. We regret not planning more time to enjoy the lake and the woods. We loved it. Karry was great to work with as well

The location of this cabin is truly excellent: situated right on lake! We saw beautiful sunrises and, at night, we loved the dark skies and stars that we never get to see in the city.One drawback, at least for older people, are the steps in the bathroom. We understand that installing plumbing in a rustic cabin required the steps. But they proved more challenging for us (we are in our late 70s) than we had anticipated.

Great location

Great location on 16-Mile Lake, and Kerry is an awesome host. The cabin was very clean and adequately equipped. The bedroom is small but functional. The only suggestion I would have is that it needs more window screens as there were only 2, and that was not adequate to fully cool and ventilate the unit as it was a bit hot when we were there, and keep all the flies out. Overall a good value.
Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020
Response from VrboOwner on 14 Aug, 2020
Thank you for the kind words. As for the screens there are at least 6 total. Per the cabin information posted on the refrigerator, the others were under the couch. Going forward we will place them all under windows for convenience when cabin information is not fully read. We enjoyed having you!!!

Perfect Getaway

Kerry and his wife were the most welcoming people. Da Cabin is very well maintained and fully stocked in a very relaxing atmosphere. We enjoyed our chats with Kerry and his family...and left feeling like family. Having kayaks to explore 16 Mile Lake during the day, delicious homemade rhubarb cake shared with us and stargazing around the bonfire at night added to the perfect getaway for us. We will be back again, no “butts” about it ;) A huge thank you to Kerry and his wife for making this a memorable weekend for us.

Excellent host! Very clean!

We enjoyed staying at Da Cabin! Had a little adventure coming in because the GPS in our truck took us on a ATV 2 track at 10pm. But we made it! Lol The cabin was so cozy! Kerry had the place so warm for our late night arrival, he even kept the fire going for us throughout the whole next day, due to us exploring Munising. Kerry was an excellent host! He made sure everything was perfect for our stay. Even let me borrow a hairdryer! Top notch service at this cabin!!! We would love to come stay again!
