Trails that wind through the forest and around the pond
There are two other guest cabins and one private residence on the property, offering a peaceful sense of community with plenty of space to roam.
Nature at Its Finest
Our quiet forest setting offers stunning night skies, peaceful surroundings, and the occasional visit from local wildlife. As with any true nature escape, bugs are part of the experience—mosquitos, flies, ladybugs, and more may appear, especially near our pond in the evenings. We regularly treat the area to minimize discomfort and are happy to provide bug spray, extra treatments, or even a mid-stay cleaning upon request.
We also raise chickens on the property and love sharing farm-fresh eggs when available. Interested in meeting them? Just let us know—we’d be happy to give you a tour and a hands-on experience.

No smoking or vaping within the cabin or within 20 feet of any cabin.
Up to two dogs are allowed, with advance notice and with the payment of a $75/visit pet fee. Dogs must be cleaned up after and guests are responsible for any damage that their dogs may cause. Service animals are welcome, but may not be left unattended at any time.
All guests must be registered and disclosed at booking. If you need to add additional guests before your arrival, please contact us so that we can adjust your reservation.

The beds were comfortable and new. The cabin was very clean and well-appointed.The hosts were awesome with communication and making sure we had what we needed and even invited us to a Saturday night bonfire.We would definitely recommend this property and these hosts.
Quiet, comfortable, beautiful property. You're in the middle of nowhere, which for me was great. I was happy with all of the accommodations. We didn't lack for anything.
We were very happy with our stay at Silver Mountain Cabins. We were doing a weekend of UTV'ing and had a great time exploring the area. The cabins were great, and Mike went out of his way to accommodate our large group.Mike and Kris were excellent hosts. We would definitely stay here again.

Thanks for staying with us Jeff! We would host your group again anytime!
Our group had a great time at your place. It was nice and easy to get too and accessible to the groomed sled trails. Well equipped cabin with a lot of space. Look forward to coming back!
We had a fantastic stay. New updated appliances, updates in bathroom, new mattresses- we slept very well here. Cozy space. The owners leave you farm fresh eggs as a nice touch. We will be sure to come back.
Mike and Kim were very responsive. Always available for questions, and very helpful navigating the snowmobile trails! Shout out to Mike helping me jump start my truck!
