ABOUT GAYLORD
Located on the 45th Parallel, Gaylord is truly Northern Michigan’s heart. Whether it’s your first visit or your 31st, the Alpine Village will welcome you with top-notch shopping, galleries, festivals, and endless outdoor adventures. Its central location means you’re just minutes from everything the North has to offer—from sparkling lakes and trails to arts, music, and small-town charm.

WINTER ACTIVITIES

Snowmobiling
Located in the heart of Northern Michigan’s Snow Belt, Gaylord averages over 180 inches of snow each year—perfect for winter sports lovers. With rolling hills and thousands of acres of forest, the area is a true snowmobile paradise.

Snowmobile trail access: Hop on your sled right from the cabin—no trailering required! DNR Trail #4 is accessible by sled from cabin: Takes about 10 minutes from cabin to trail 4 by way of snowmobile friendly roadsides.

Plenty of trailer parking available (please ask in advance).

Driveway and neighborhood is plowed, but a 4WD or AWD vehicle is strongly recommended in winter as we are located in the highest elevation in lower Northern Michigan so we will get the snow in abundance usually!

Skiing, Cross-Country, and Snowshoeing
Gaylord’s gentle terrain and deep snow make it ideal for Nordic skiing and snowshoeing, with trails winding through scenic forests and abundant wildlife. Several downhill ski resorts are also nearby for alpine skiing and snowboarding.

SPRING, SUMMER & FALL

Outdoor Fun

Association Park & Pool: Within walking distance, you’ll find pickle-ball volleyball and basketball courts, a playground, and a heated outdoor pool (open Memorial Day–Labor Day).

Golf
With 25 courses within 15–20 minutes, including championship courses designed by top architects, Gaylord is a golfer’s dream destination.

Hiking & Biking
Explore Otsego County’s extensive trail network for hiking, biking, and nature walks. Trails are free to use, with options for all skill levels.

Elk Viewing
Stop by the viewing next to Jay’s Sporting Goods, where elk are fed daily. You’re guaranteed a close-up look at these majestic animals!

Wildlife & Foraging

Bird watchers will love spotting bald eagles, loons, ducks, hummingbirds, and woodpeckers.

Visit in May for the famous morel mushroom season—just walk into the nearby woods!

Loved our stay at this cabin! The hosts were excellent, and quick to assist with a chirping smoke alarm during our stay. Very clean, well organized with every comfort we could ask for. The hot tub was very relaxing and my small dog enjoyed the fenced in yard. We look forward to staying here again.
