Water lovers Dream-Newly renovated! Gorgeous modern updates with a rustic flare!

Enjoy this newly updated cabin with a gorgeous new kitchen that keeps some flare of rustic with modern amenities. This adorable cabin, with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath is just 6 miles from Lake Linden and 1.2 miles from Dreamland Restaurant and Bar.

Enjoy 60 ft of lake front with a private dock with a large sitting area for your personal enjoyment whether for swimming, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing or the gorgeous sunsets-the water fun is endless!!

Just off Chipmunk Trail for quick access to trails for walking and biking. We do accept dogs, please advise w/pet at time of booking. We ask they do biz on roadside, not lake side (it kills the grass), picked up after, leashed at all times and please don’t leave them for long period of times, as the cabin is not a kennel.

If you want a boat, just let us know and we can have a small 14ft boat with motor available for rent for 15.00 per 24hrs-includes one tank of gas for each 24hrs. (All operators will need a tutorial and must be over 21 to use. Anyone under 21 must be accompanied by an adult.) Can even supply some tackle and rods, just let us know. You can always bring your own boat or jet skis if you wish and launch in Lake Linden and keep at the 74ft dock which can accommodate up to approx18ft boat since water is fairly shallow.

There is a 16ft Grumman canoe/paddles available, with four adult life jackets, as well as two sea kayaks and a paddle board for your enjoyment free of charge-use at your own risk. 30 AMP RV service is also available at 25.00 a day if you have visitors needing to stay that have their own rig. Come enjoy the beauty of the U.P. Experience the adventures and sites the Keweenaw has to offer!

Relaxing time away

Kierstin and Tom had doors open upon our arrival. Due to previous rainy days we used their driveway, their house is just next door.The kitchen had recently been remodeled and it was very nice and had just about everything you would need. Some of the fry pans could be replaced but was very excited about the great coffee pot they had.The bathroom is on the small side but it worked; with exception of the door knob falling off. We all had a good laugh about that. I would recommend putting up a toilet paper holder or floor standing one somewhere for better accessibility.The decor was so nice and everything was clean. We may have been an exception of normal guests as my husband is handicapped so I look for different safety aspects than others. My greatest concern is the front steps going into cabin, but we managed that too. The railing is on the opposite side that the door opens from so it didn’t provide much safety or assistance for anyone coming into cabin. Again, it all worked out.We had a comfortable stay and enjoyed our conversations with both of them. We saw wonderful wildlife as we sat on the back porch. We hopefully will make a return visit next year.

Everything about our stay was wonderful! We loved getting to know Kierstin and Tom - they were so friendly, informational, and helpful with tons of tips around the area. The surrounding area is stunning and relaxing. Sitting on the dock in the early morning and watching the sunset in the evening!! The home is sweet and cozy. Highly recommend!! Should we ever return to the Keweenaw Peninsula, we would absolutely stay here again. 10/10!

Great property for dog owner

My dad and I stayed for 3 nights while visiting my son at Michigan Tech. It was a lovely, quiet area. The cabin was clean and I loved the old with new look. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom is very small but clean. The property was amazing to exercise my 1.5 yo chocolate lab. She was able to chase a ball up and down the lane and in the lake. We enjoyed our stay very much. One thing, bring soap. Otherwise, very well stocked.

Perfect peaceful cottage on beautiful water!

This was the cleanest vrbo I've ever stayed in! It was spotless. Adorable back porch and a beautiful dock out on gorgeous water (with comfortable chairs to sit and enjoy the sunsets). A lot of cute touches like lights on the pier and a fairy garden. Loved the wood interior. Well appointed with all we needed. The dog had a great time too! Tom and Kierstin were delightful. Super friendly and had good suggestions on places to eat and things to see. Would love to come back!!

Amazing cozy cabin on a lake

I highly recommend staying at this cabin! It's clean and a very nice spot just to relax by the lake awesome sunset views and star gazing from the chairs they have setup on the dock! My kids had a blast swimming every day and the hosts Tom and Kierstin are the best very friendly people and they made sure we had everything we needed and they even did some extra stuff for us that they didn't have too. Thank you both for the best vacation my family and I have had in years!

Tom & Kierstin's cabin was the perfect complement of comfort, accommodation, and location; providing our base-camp for autumn color jaunts to museums, mine tours, lighthouses, ghost towns, harbors, tree tunnels, logging trails, historic pubs, and all things days-of-y'ore & copper.' The friendly hosts were available for wonderful insights and answers and we felt very much at home.

Beautiful lake front cabin

Clean, cozy, welcoming cabin on calm lake front with canoe and kayaks. Kierstin and Tom made us feel welcome and the cabin is equipped with all the comforts of home. The lake is beautiful and the cabin has several spots to sit and enjoy the views and the breeze off the lake. We took the kayaks out, and we sat with our dogs watching the sunsets. A fire pit is available though it was warm so we didn't use it. Cabin is short drive to state parks, hikes and waterfalls, as well as nearby towns for restaurants and markets. Kitchen is really well stocked with everything needed to cook and prepare meals. Definitely would recommend, and keep an eye out for Bald eagles hanging out in the pines on the lake.

Charming cottage

We enjoyed our stay. It's a charming cabin on a beautiful lake (great sunsets!) The house was super clean when we arrived and stocked with everything from kitchen utensils to extra towels. There are a couple kayaks and canoe you can use also. We visited Copper Harbor, Eagle Harbor, Calumet, and Houghton - all are within 20-60 minute drive. Recommend the vegetable stands nearby for fresh veggies (usually harvested the same day!) and UP Foods down the road about a half mile for fresh, homemade jams. Overall a lovely, clean cabin and nice area to visit.
