Cabin within sight distance of Lake Superior, Autrain River. Free Kayak rental
This Cabin is within a short walking distance of the Beach on Lake Superior and the AuTrain River. Spend some time relaxing on the Beach or swim in the warm water of the River where it empties into the Lake. This location is perfect for a home base of all of the local attractions this area has to offer. Within 15 minutes you are in Munising where you can do the Pictured Rocks cruise, Shipwreck Tour or Kayak tour and many more. Munising is the start of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and there's days worth of activities there and the surrounding area. See over a dozen waterfalls all within 30 minutes from the Cabin.
The cabin is done completely in custom woodwork. As you enter, you'll see the homemade barn doors for bedrooms and hallway closets. As you walk past, you will enter the main living area that is all an open concept and all done in custom woodwork. There's locally sourced Hemlock walls and homemade rustic cabinets. The Kitchen is part of the open concept that is perfect for anyone who likes to cook. With a central stove and counter area, the cook can engage with the other group members as they sit around the bar that goes around the kitchen or watch TV while they cook. In the corner of the cabin is a homemade wet bar, (no liquor, SORRY!) The main bathroom is large and has a custom steel shower, the other bathroom is in the back off the laundry room and has a full size tub and shower. In the bedrooms, one has a king, the other has a queen and the 3rd bedroom has a full on bottom and twin on top for sleeping accommodations for 7. All of the 3 bedrooms have smart TV's.
Included in your stay is a gas flat top with propane, paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent and softener as well as coffee filters for our regular drip coffee maker. We don't provide toiletries. All bedding, towels and linens provided.
Au Train is located in a beautiful rural area, and unlike cities, homes here do not use a municipal water system. Instead, everyone relies on a well system for their water including us! Well water is completely natural an does not contain additives or chemicals such as chlorine, commonly used in city water. Because of this you may notice that the water can taste or smell different than what you're used to at home. You're of course welcome to bring bottled water if you prefer.
Out back is a fenced in yard with a covered patio with table, chairs and flattop grill. Also a fire pit area and chairs for sitting provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy the fire, outdoors, each other and the stars..... For pet owners, there's a pen area with a door to the cabin.
We're confident you will enjoy this cabin and the area as we have for years!

We were very comfortable at this cabin. When exploring both Marquette and Munising, this is a great location in between the two. Beds were super comfortable. The cabin is well-equipped. When we arrived, the floors were clean - everything was clean!
Had a great time in the UP! Cabin was super clean. Great location. Bed was comfy! Wish we could have stayed longer! Will definitely stay again. Thanks!!
Our stay was great:)) Cabin was very nice had everything we needed. Appreciated the owners sense of humor with his decorations and internet password....lol
The cabin was exactly as shown in the photos. Very rustic and innovative all at the same time. Unfortunately, we were there during a blizzard and lost power for 9 hours. Communication with the property owner was excellent. Kitchen was unique and the big couches were comfortable while watching movies in the huge TV. Snowmobile trail access is about 4 blocks away.
We enjoyed this cabin as a great place to return after a long day of hiking and sight seeing. It was well maintained and offered a very relaxing atmosphere.
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! The place was spacious and clean. All the essentials were provided, including dishes, silverware, and other kitchen basics.The location is fantastic—just a short walk to a convenient store, an ice cream and pizza restaurant, and best of all, the beautiful beach on Lake Superior.
This was our second time staying here and we had a great time…AGAIN! The cabin is just our style with a great fenced backyard for dogs. Only a short walk to the lake, groceries, pizza, etc. It’s a really cool property!
The property and location were both wonderful. The kitchen was well supplied and made making several meals there easy. The hot tub was great for enjoying the scenery and relaxing.
Very nice accommodations, most days we were out and bout exploring the many waterfalls, evenings were nice with cooking over the fire pit and enjoying s’mores
The property was very well kept, clean, and the host was great with communication. I will definitely be staying again when I come back up! Very very happy!
Great place to stay. Close enough to walk to the lake and stores. Beautiful cabin well appointed. Nice yard for dogs to. Lots of waterfalls close by. Definitely coming back
This house is just as the pictures show, great place, in a small town close to the water and Munising and Marquette. Enjoyed our stay and would stay here again when in the area.

About the host
Hosted by Cory Cole
Hi, my name is Cory, plain and simply, I am a Yooper. I live locally year round and am a wealth of knowledge when it comes to exploring our area. I graduated high school and college here and I am an avid outdoors-man, I camp, hike, bike, kayak, ski, snowshoe, ATV, motorcycle, snowmobile and Jeep nearly the entire U.P. and if you have heard of it, chances are I've been there, or done that. I also know some places 'slightly off the radar' if you are looking to get away from the tourist areas. Just ask, I'll be happy to give you advice.
Why they chose this property
Quite simply because it's my own home! I have lived and worked here since 2011. Before that it was in my family as a Sports Shop. They purchased it in 1999 and we ran a canoe livery and sports shop for several years. Then there was the recession...... Move forward a few years and a ten year project started and ended in July 2020 with what you see now. It has been long, but so worth it. This cabin is special
What makes this property unique
You can practically see Lake Superior from the driveway. It is within walking distance of the store, food, and the beach!
