Romantic - Historic - Luxury Log Cabin - A Fairy Tale Experience and Setting
Just 25 minutes east of Grayling on the AuSable River. Our cabin is literally 50 feet from the river's edge.
Looking for a truly unique, breathtaking and romantic Log Cabin Experience on the Au Sable River? You've Found it!!
Commonly known as "Copper Fox Lodge", a rare, 4-season, luxury-appointed, log cabin sitting on the rivers edge. Experience a gorgeous log cabin with upscale furnishings and touches. Cuddle up to a cozy stone fireplace. Relax with incredible riverfront views on one of America's natural scenic treasures - The Au Sable! Sit under towering pine trees. Cast a line in a legendary trout stream. This is an atmosphere most people never get to experience first hand. We love sharing our cabin with others and ultimately our greatest desire is that you have the most memorable vacation possible.
No matter the season, the atmosphere is perfect for a romantic getaway, anniversary, birthday, honeymoon, or intimate family vacation.
The cabin sits in a secluded river location with 12 acres of privacy and is for your exclusive use. Access to the river at the cabin is easy. There are no high banks to contend with and you have a half mile of wadable trout fishing water and lots of river structure in front of the cabin to hold trout. Brown, Rainbow, and Brook trout can be caught right out front.
In the warmer months common outdoor activities in the region include fishing, hiking, bird watching, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, tubing, golfing, ATV trail riding, and horseback riding. In the winter months things don't slow down as the temperatures, snowfall, and terrain make an ideal winter wonderland for hunting, snowmobiling, tubing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and even downhill skiing. The area is rich with outfitters supporting your canoe, kayak, tube, ATV, snowmobile, horseback, skiing, and fishing interests.
The Michigan roads in this region are well maintained year round. The access road to the cabin is also maintained year round catering to 2WD vehicles. We also have a Generac standby, whole house, generator - so you never need to worry about losing power in a storm and the fireplace will always keep you warm and cozy.
Nearby are the Holy Waters of the Au Sable, Mio Trophy Waters, and Masons Tract along the South Branch. Experience miles of groomed snowmobile trails throughout the region right from our doorstep. The region also sports numerous cross country ski trails, tubing hills, and even a few downhill slopes.
The cabin has everything you could possibly need. Fully furnished Kitchen; All Bedding and Linens; All Bath Towels; Flat Screen TV; Satellite DirecTV; DVD and VHS Player; High-speed Starlink WIFI; Games; Luxury Gas Log Fireplace; Propane BBQ Grill; Horseshoes, Ladder and Washer Game; and Screened Gazebo.
