Treehouse on the river.

Beautiful views anytime of year from every window. From lazy summer days kayaking down the river to bundling up and hitting the snowmobile trails in the winter and all the beautiful spring and fall colors in between this fully loaded cottage is just what you’re looking for! Great location to get you where you want to be! On the river. 1 mile away from Lake Superior. 20
minutes away from Pictured Rocks. Waterfalls all around the area!

The property was right on the river and very clean. So peaceful! The weather was mostly cold and rainy during our trip but we’re looking forward to staying again next year and kayaking the river. Great location between munising and Marquette!

The house is beautiful and really well equipped for all needs. The view of the AuTrain river is only eclipsed by its location - go down some steps and it’s right there. Close to Lake Superior. The beach is lovely and not terribly crowded. Great central location- close to Marquette and Munising plus a couple small markets down the street. Love, love, loved it!!

convenient location to attractions

We loved the central location. The property was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The kayaks provided were a nice perk. If you use them, just beware that you need to carry them to an access point. It is almost impossible to carry them down the hill. We had an issue when we used the numbered key pad to lock the door. We could not get back in using the security code and notified the property owners who responded very quickly to our problem. The beds were very comfortable and the shower, although small provided good pressure and hot water. We loved the windows and the view from the living room area. It was fun to watch all the people kayaking on the river. We did as well and enjoyed it very much. Overall, we enjoyed our week spent as the treehouse.

Treehouse Vacation

Treehouse is a great place to relax and take in all the beauty of Au Train river. The place has everything you need. The general store is right down the road. Being located between Marquette and Munising, there are several waterfalls and hiking trails to visit. Best adventure ever!

The treehouse was well stocked with items you would need. We loved the location, the views of the river were beautiful. Nice to have a full kitchen, as food and coffee shops are limited in Minising. Great time at Pictured Rocks!

Clean, quiet, convenient

This spot was central location for all of our excursions but beautiful and peaceful enough for days when we had no plans. I was blown away by the cleanliness and the available amenities. Would love to return in summer to utilize river access. It was a beautiful place to unwind after a day of adventuring.

Beautiful Au Train River

Enjoyed hiking & canoeing nearby & @ National Scenic Lakeshore. Cooked delicious meals in well appointed kitchen. Spent late afternoons on the deck in the sunshine & overlooking the river. Surprised by the road noise.

Lovely Getaway Spot

A nice, no fuss place to spend a week with friends (and furry friends) in the UP. A good location with plenty of nice hiking nearby. Just down the road was a beautiful full sand beach. But the real treat was the river itself and the kayaks that were available for use. Such a lovely, calm river ride that was 3+ hours route down to the nearby landing spot off the bridge. The only downside was that the property was right off the road, so the fire spot wasn't very secluded, but everything else made that such a small concession for our group. It was a good place for up to 4 people, and very pet friendly which was so nice.

House in AuTrain, Mi (UP) - A place to stay

Great Location for exploring the "U.P." centered between Marquette and Grand Marais! Had what we needed. House was oddly configured and has not been updated yet. Looks like it has a new roof and exterior, but interior old, but functional. Bathroom was small and lighting poor. Bed was very comfortable, however, all the other furniture was not as good. Kayaks on site, but not easy to transport from outside house down to the private dock. Dog friendly, which is not always easy to find. Would stay again.

We totally enjoyed the river behind the property. We kayaked right off the dock, watched other kayakers float by, listened to birds. The house was close enough to Munising to experience all it had. And also not too far from Marquette. Lovely!

Deceiving

The outside needs some TLC, sitting on the deck wasn’t an option. There is no AC and the majority of the blinds are busted so you cannot open them to open up the windows. Bring your own towels as the ones there are stained and rough. Also recommend your own TP, unless 1 ply is your thing. You’re also expected to clean the place before you leave, washing windows, vacuuming, etc. The tv was a joke, there was never a network connection for you to even watch it. Definitely not worth the money, we ended up packing up and leaving early.

Cabin was nice with a beautiful view but could definitely benefit from a deep cleaning. The location is great - 15 minutes from Munisng.
