Beautiful, quiet retreat!

The cabin and property are so beautiful and quiet. Just what we needed. The cabin was very clean and well stocked. They made sure we had firewood for the week at no extra charge. The property manager, Zac, was super nice and helpful. Close to beaches, Lake Michigan, several golf courses, and just far enough from Escanaba and Gladstone. Or just sit and relax at the cabin or take a walk on the many groomed trails on the 160 acre property. We watched the turkeys and deer every day. The mattress in the master bedroom was very firm. But the mattress in the 2nd bedroom was soft and comfortable. This cabin is a 1-1/2 bath. The only shower/bath tub is in the master bedroom. Not a problem for the two of us, but if my brother, his wife, and son would have come with us, it would have been an issue. We are planning on staying here again some day.

A wonderful "off the grid" get away

We had a wonderful family vacation at this cabin. It was perfect for the adults and the kids. Clean, quite, and fun. We will be back. The only minimal negative, the master bedroom mattress is not exactly comfortable. Thank you for making this property available for great family memories to be made.

Relaxing retreat in a beautiful setting

Our family very much enjoyed our get away. The cabin is beautiful in a quiet remote setting. The kids complained a little about the lack of cell service here but honestly, it was great for us to disconnect from electronics and connect as a family. We used the paddle boat - the kids enjoyed that and the grill which was awesome! My favorite part had to be the sunrise. Every morning we were greeted by beams of sunshine into the cabin. The windows in the cabin were gorgeous. It was serene and peaceful. A bit of a drive to other places, but we spent most of our time here.

Awesome cabin!

Our family enjoyed every minute of our time at the cabin. Everything was super clean and it was well equipped with everything needed to prepare meals while we enjoyed the pond and bonfire. We enjoyed wonderful day trips to Escanaba, Taquammanon Falls, and Marquette. Loved all the quality time and the opportunity to kick back with nature. Hope to return soon!

Great Family Getaway

Other than a few issues with checking in, we loved our time here! Park like setting, lots to see and do to keep you occupied when you aren't enjoying the beautiful view from the porch. The manager was very friendly.

Beautiful Cabin

We really enjoyed the cabin. It was beautiful and so was the setting. Very relaxing and peaceful. Enjoyed fishing and playing in the water and laying out on the dock. The directions could have been a little more detailed. The description should say 1 and 1/2 bath, not 2 baths. The 2nd bedroom bed needs to be replaced, the frame is broken. Our one major complaint was the day we were leaving, someone came to the house with a truck and trailer to drop off a 4 wheeler, trash bags and toilet paper, at 6:55 am. Then less than an hour later the cleaning crew showed up. Check out isn't until 10 am, so we felt rushed to get out. We hurried through breakfast while the cleaning crew sat and watched us through the window. . Maybe if you want to clean and drop off things that early, you should make the check out time earlier. Overall, the week stay was great!

Amazing Place

This property is amazing. A get away from it all experience, but centrally located to hit all the touristy spots. Nature trails and wildlife were amazing. There were deer 50 yards from the front door. The property manager was very responsive and helpful with our stay. Which leads to the only small complaint we had was we were not given specific instructions about how to get onto the property. We contacted the property manager and he responded right away with how to gain access. Just a minor oversight really. Would not deter me from staying here again....Highly Recommended

Amazing Getaway

What an amazing place to stay and get away from it all, while being within travel distance of all the tourist stops. While here we went sightseeing to Kitch-iti-kipi, Escabana, Marquette, Pictured rocks all within a reasonable travel time. Also, spent much of the time on the property enjoying the hiking trails, pond, and wildlife. Deer came within 30 yards of the cabin, simply amazing. The property manager was very helpful with our one small hiccup, we did not receive specific instructions for how to get onto the property. Manager called us back within minutes with specific instruction, was very simple. If your looking for that getaway from it all experience while being able to experience the U.P. scenes this is your destination. Definitely coming back if we decide to go up there again.

Amazing Cabin

Enjoyed our stay in the beautiful cabin. We enjoyed the peace and wild life that the cabin offers. Every morning I would get up before the rest of the family and sit on the porch. While sitting on the porch I would listen to all the different birds, watch the deer drinking out of the pond, skunks digging for grubs and a hummingbird would come and visit me. We did several day trips while there Kitchen-iti-Kipi springs, Pictured Rocks, Fayette State Park and many of the water falls. Would highly recommend a stay at this beautiful cabin if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of your busy life.

Modern comforts in a beautiful UP wooded cabin setting

Beautiful location and very clean. We had 6 family members stay at the cabin and everyone had plenty of space. Also, lots of open grass space for kids to play yard games. It is a great place to get away and relax comfortably with nature.

Our cabin was fantastic! It was clean and had everything we needed! We love the outdoors and the property was great for enjoying it! We loved the privacy! We visited Munising and Marquette and Escanaba and Garden from this cabin! It worked out great for that as well!

An unexpected treasure.

Having visited many traditional UP camps I was pleasantly surprised by this home away from home. The location is far enough off the beaten path for true privacy yet is centrally located for day trips to Escanaba, Gladstone, Marquette and Munising. Don't be fooled by the 2 bedrooms as the home is big enough for a large family. Watching the sun rise over the pond while enjoying morning coffee is an amazing way of starting each day. I am looking forward to getting back.

Great Getaway!!

This is my favorite place to get away to. If you are looking for an opportunity to experience the best Michigan's Upper Peninsula has to offer, a stay at this cabin is hard to beat. The sunrise over the forest, morning mist rising off the pond, tranquility of the property (it is rare to hear anything other than wildlife while staying here), trails through the woods to explore and a modern cabin to retreat to are just a few of the reasons my annual stay is a highlight of my year. Highly recommended!

TOP NOTCH CABIN!!!

The place is amazing! The view from the cabin is stunning which at times, includes wildlife that is very close! When we showed up, the place was extremely clean and had everything we needed which was awesome. As others have mentioned, the well marked trails are a great feature. It provided us some safe exploring options to see the unique aspect of the property. Can't wait to go back.

Stunningly beautiful

This cabin is stunningly beautiful! The quiet breeze, lush forest, and wildlife made each night both relaxing and fun to anticipate. The trails are clearly marked and seem to go on for forever! I really enjoyed looking for wild turkey feathers each day. I can't wait to go back next year!

A GEM IN THE NORTH WOODS

STEVE......Thanks for sharing your home away from home gem. The Magilen Log Cabin provides all the comforts of home while at the same time the tranquility and beauty of the North Woods. Especially enjoyed hiking the mapped nature trails and seeing deer and wild turkey. We look forward to returning to the gem of the North Woods.
