森の中の隠れ家

My great great grandfather came to Oscoda from Saginaw in 1853. There was not much going on. He later returned in 1862 and established the farm in 1864. This cabin is built on the same spot as the one the family built that burned down in 1911 with the two towns Au Sable and Oscoda burned to the ground.

The majority of the renovations were done by my wife, my kids, and myself. We spent nearly 2 years driving up every weekend to work on it.

At one point, the family owned several hundred acres of land and had a cattle farm on it. some of the old fence can still be found as you walk around.

We have a super large covered porch perfect for rainy days or watching the thunderstorms at night.

Our Hideout Saloon is our own creation that is our take on a Wild West Saloon that you would have found in the Northwoods. It features a custom made bar, pool table, foosball, darts, player piano, and sound system. This is available to you at no extra charge.

We offer two large gathering rooms. One has a projector and bluray player. Both are equipped with sound systems.

All of the log begs were hand built by us. We felled the trees, dragged them to the house, de-barked them, and created each bed to be unique.

The large barn style doors and the trim in the house were from wood that my granddad pulled from the river and store to use one day. He passed away in 1957 never getting the chance to use them. I am sure he would be proud that we finally used them on the cabin.

My wife built the large table from extra floor boards we found in the attic while remodeling to commemorate the family heritage we have up there.
