About this property
✨🌌Peaceful riverside cabin in the UP near public beach🌊, 🥾trails & the Porkies!🌲
Welcome to your UP adventure headquarters: *Floodwood River Oar’asis*! Attention winter sports enthusiasts! Conditions are ✨absolutely perfect ✨ and the snow continues to fall! ❄️☃️🎿🛷Our tranquil little artfully curated getaway is the perfect home base for anyone visiting the UP! Our vibes are a blend of outdoorsy inspired northwoods nostalgia balanced with some comforts you’d find at home (picture cozy linens, comfy beds, a rainfall style shower head, the crackle of a campfire under the stars, and a warm cup of coffee/tea). Hosting is so much more to us than just renting out our cabin. We strive to help create a memorable experience for our guests! A bit about our location: perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, we are situated along the banks of the Floodwood River, and we are a few miles from the public beach for Lake Superior access. During peak snow season, bring your sleds and ride (safely) along the shoulder of the highway or trailer them just a 3mi down the road to the trailhead. If conditions are just right, you may even fall asleep to the sound of the waves of the big lake, or stay up late and catch a glimpse of the breathtaking dance of the northern lights! The cabin sits on serene 32 acres of private wooded property so you are welcome to explore, snowshoe (provided for guests in winter) and relax to your hearts content. We are located just a few miles from town, where you’ll find a selection of shops, groceries, gas as well as options for dining out (we reccommend The Squeeze!). We are also approx 20 miles away from Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park including Lake of the Clouds, all levels of hiking trails, waterfalls, beaches, cc and downhill skiing and more! There are plenty of nearby snowmobile, atv and hiking trails/UP adventure hotspots (Bond Falls, Agate Falls, etc. or take the ferry to Isle Royale) within an hour or so radius of the cabin; the possibilities are endless no matter what season you visit! Interior cabin amenities include: the main floor is wheelchair accessible, has a covered porch with spacious entryway, full bath with tile shower, petite yet well equipped kitchen and wet bar as well as a dining and living area. There are two queen beds, one on the main floor and one up in the loft, sleeping a total of 4 people. Upstairs, opposite the sleeping area, you’ll find a desk for creatives and a cozy reading nook. We have internet service for you to work remotely, but also encourage you to disconnect and take time to enjoy a hobby of yours or explore the outdoors! Speaking of outdoor space: Please be respectful our occasional animal visitors, including deer, hummingbirds, river beavers, and more! We have a firepit with chairs as well as a trail down to the river. There is a very large and level gravel area with plenty of room for parking and unloading trailers for those of you who are visiting us to snowmobile or ATV/side by side on the local trails! If youre looking to rent, Hamilton’s North Coast rents sleds and atvs. We cannot wait for you to join us @floodwoodriveroarasis on your next trip to Upper Michigan!
**We fully respect your privacy during your stay, but we do stop by occasionally to water the outdoor plants, plow snow and take the garbage out for collection. Thank you for understanding!**

About the host
Hosted by Heidi and Gary
Originally from WI, the UP has always been a special place for me to come up and enjoy! Started with a small cabin on the Presque Isle river in Tula, to purchasing and redoing this cabin on the Floodwood river, and finally a permanent move to the UP in 2001! We know the area well and are happy to provide tips and recommendations if you need them.
Why they chose this property
Our favorite aspect of this property is the wide array of flora & fauna! You can also hear the waves of the Lake from the porch, but you are semi-protected from her windy gales being just a bit inland. 🩵 And we cannot forget to mention the star studded night sky!
What makes this property unique
We love to host and make our guests feel welcomed! Our property is incredibly private and abundant with wildlife. We are ever so grateful that we have the opportunity to share it with you. The river being on the property is what drew us here, and we are lucky to observe all the animals that call this area home.🦌🦝🦫🐸🐇🐿️
We also provide a few musical instruments, some yoga equipment, drawing and writing supplies, games, books, and maps for you to use! Can’t wait to have you join us and see how the oar’asis lives up to its name.
