We had an amazing stay here! The area was picturesque and the cabin had all of the amenities we needed. We had the best time with our toddler walking up and down the beach hunting rocks, listening to the waves in the morning while drinking coffee on the porch, and walking the nearby nature trails. The cabin is the perfect place for a family to stay and have a fun, relaxing getaway in pure Michigan.

Serene Beauty

Marina and Sergey’s beach-front cabin is a beauty. The location is serene - far enough away from town for stillness and relaxation, yet close enough to amenities and activities. The cabin is newly built, open and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

This cabin rental is gorgeous, clean and in such a beautiful, peaceful setting along Thunder Bay in Lake Huron. We loved our stay here and just wish it could’ve lasted longer. Sergey was a most welcoming and helpful host. We really appreciate the owners opening up their home for us to enjoy a truly relaxing time. It’s a beautiful piece of Heaven here on earth.

Fantastic Vacation Spot!

The cabin is wonderful. It has the perfect porch to hang out on. The kitchen is well appointed if you want to make meals. The water is steps away out the back door. Plenty of places to see and things to do around Alpena whether you like to explore towns or prefer outdoor adventures. This is the perfect “home base” that instantly feels like home.

Tranquility

We had a lovely time at Marina’s cabin. Everything we needed was available and the cabin was beautiful. The beach was clean, the water was clear. Sergey provided excellent directions and suggested a few places we could visit close by. We were visited by some deer, saw a pileated woodpecker, and a few song birds. It was just what we needed to relax and unwind. Thank you for sharing this special place!

Awesome stay

Very beautiful home and property. Clean and well maintained. The location exceeded our expectations, along with it being very quiet. For as far as we could see in either direction we were the only ones there on the beach. We have been to many VRBO's thru the years and this is our top 3 of all time. Look forward to possibly coming back next year.

We had the best time at this place. Good weather and rainy it was a great place to stay. The covered porch was the best!!! Grab your coffee and wake up to the most amazing view.

If you really want to get away from it all, this is the place. Gorgeous and very comfortable log home. Situated amongst the pines, away from the main road and steps from the beach. We truly appreciated the serenity, privacy, and nature!! Lots of snow, but road and driveway were always plowed, making it so easy for us to drive 10-15 min into town for food/groceries. We loved trekking around the property and beach with our dog Luna- she had so much fun! Strong WiFi, even during heavy snow/wind. Nice hot showers; very new and clean home. Comfy beds and quality linens. Dishwasher was a plus. Thank you to Sergey and Marina for being such gracious and accommodating hosts. We can’t wait to return!
