Escape to this cozy cabin nestled in the serene woods of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Set along the peaceful Silver River, just steps from your front door, this getaway offers the perfect mix of relaxation and outdoor adventure. Guests can even fish right from the property and enjoy the charm of a small private waterfall along the river.
The cabin sits directly on the ATV/ORV trail network and is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, with easy access to snowshoeing, hiking, kayaking, fishing, and hunting. Snowmobilers can ride the trail in front of the cabin to connect with the main snowmobile trail about three miles down the road with no issues. Lake Superior’s breathtaking shoreline is less than 10 miles away.
Inside, you’ll enjoy a comfortable main-floor bedroom with a queen bed and an open loft featuring two full-size beds. The space is thoughtfully outfitted with modern conveniences including WiFi, a smart TV, heating and air conditioning, a washer and dryer, and a K-Cup coffee maker. We also provide a starter supply of K-Cups along with sugar and creamer for your morning coffee.
We include homey touches and essentials to make your stay effortless: six rolls of toilet paper, tissues, a hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hand soap. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, dishes, a cutting board, dish soap, some paper towels, and basic cleaning supplies. For laundry, we supply a starter pack of Tide and Downy.
You’ll also find plenty of parking space for large trucks with trailers, perfect for hauling side-by-sides, four-wheelers, or snowmobiles.
Evenings invite you to gather around the fire pit, grill on the charcoal BBQ, or relax at the picnic table surrounded by nature. Towels, board games, and all the little extras are included to ensure your stay is comfortable and memorable.

It was the perfect spot for our snowmobiling trip as it was just a short ride to the trails. There was a Ton of snow around the cabin and the woods all around was just Beautiful...WE LOVED it! It was Quiet, with a few animals coming to say HI by the creek that ran along the backside of the property. There was Lots of Parking outside for our truck/trailer & sleds. And Inside was lovely with the log cabin atmosphere and all the amenities we needed. Very easy check in & out processes and Mandy was VERY communicative with us! We are So happy we chose this Vrbo and look forward to coming back again! Definitely a FIVE STAR experience!
We have been vacationing in the U.P. for over 20 years, however this was our first vacation in the L’Anse area. The cabin was incredibly comfortable, clean, and peaceful. What a beautiful cabin and location, we loved staying there.

It means a lot to us that you chose our place after so many years of vacationing in the U.P., and we’re thrilled you loved the location. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!
Property was as described. Very clean and comfortable. The cabin had plenty of towels, cooking pots & pans. The peaceful quiet and the river that runs at the back of the property made this a very relaxing stay. There is plenty to do in the area: hiking, kayaking, golf and sightseeing. Check in and check out was no problem. *** One of the top three properties I have stayed with VRBO in the last ten years***

Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re thrilled to hear that you found the cabin clean, comfortable, and relaxing. It means a lot to know that it ranks among your top three VRBO stays over the past ten years. That’s such a compliment. We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful river and all the nearby activities. We’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in the area.
Property's upkeep was top notch extremely clean. The creek by the cabin was stunning and very relaxing to listen too. Sitting by the campfire was even more enjoyable from having the creek as a backdrop for the fire 🔥. Parking was easily accessible. Our host went above and beyond with sites for us to explorer. Will definitely visit again...
We came up for a wedding as a group of friends, host was incredibly easy to work with and even allowed the bride & her bridesmaids to get ready at the vrbo, with the most BEAUTIFUL backdrop ever!!!! Some of us had never been to the UP and the VRBO was the perfect place to experience everything!! We left as a FAMILY and made memories for a lifetime!!!! Thank you so so sooo much for letting us use your special space!! We can’t wait to be back someday soon!
We brought our puppy to the Keweenaw to explore the Huron Mtns, L’Anse, and many of the dirt roads and waterfalls in the area. This property is not far out of town, but far enough to feel far away. Well kept, clean, and private. In the middle of ORV country. We changed plans for our last day-and-a-half, to spend more time on the property, and just recharge our batteries. This is a special place, and we would definitely return.

Thank you for staying with us.
We’re happy that you enjoyed your time at our cabin. It is a special place and we are happy that we get to share it with people like you.
Please keep us in mind for future adventures.
Our stay was for a sxs trip. Plenty of parking for our 2 trailers and trucks, property is right on an ORV route, the trails were fantastic in this area.
Cabin was very clean and comfortable. Had everything that we needed (please, need a better can opener though). Host even provided coffee, laundry soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Cons: The loft bedroom isn't really private and the steps going up are quite steep.
Overall I would definitely recommend this cabin and wouldn't hesitate to stay again if we only have 4 of us on our next trip.
We took a quick family get away to the UP from southern WI for our daughter's bday...took the UTV, trails abound...it was a last minute trip...it did NOT disappoint!!! The sound of the river alone was worth it!!! Loved the cabin! Kids always enjoy a loft, water was nice and hot for showers and bath! Check in and out was easy :) We just keep dreaming of owning our own someday, in the meantime, thanks so much for sharing! Second time to Lake Superior now...there is so much to see in the UP! Hope to be back someday!
This lovely clean cabin sits on a piece of property surrounded by a river that lulls you to sleep at night if you sleep with the windows open. It was spotless and had all the amenities of home. The owner responded extremely prompt and was instrumental in suggesting nearby sights to see. To clarify the listing description, my only comments would be that it does not technically have a private second bedroom, as the loft is used as a bedroom, and the beds in the loft are full size, so if you are used to a queen or larger they may be small for two. The stairs to the loft are steep and at night you may want to leave a light on so you don't miss the bottom step. But hands down one of the nicest properties I have stayed at and loved the rural setting and would stay here again in a heartbeat. Just lovely!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful river setting, the cabin’s amenities, and that you felt right at home. We do note in the listing that the second sleeping space is an open loft with two full-size beds, but we appreciate you highlighting this so future guests know exactly what to expect.
It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing stay in the U.P. Safe travels until then!
