Waterfront Cabin w/ Private Dock & Outdoor Bar near Munising/Manistique

Unwind with your friends and family at the beautiful Big Kidd Cabin. The perfect rustic cabin with all the desired amenities. Featuring a brand new fully remodeled kitchen, (3) cozy bedrooms, full bathroom and indoor/outdoor bar.
The Outdoor bar is our favorite spot in the cabin. Use it all hours of the night, and enjoy coffee the next morning while gazing out at the peaceful lake. You are likely to see families of geese, swans, loons and sometimes even otters.
(2) smart TV's, Highspeed WI-FI, JBL Party Speaker, gas grill, Fire Pit, bean bag boards, toys, bounce house and sand beach for the kids! Kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need: Airfryer, Keurig, Coffee Pot, toaster and blender. Air conditioner has also been added to keep the cabin a cool comfortable temperature in the hot summer months.
Bathroom has towels, shampoo/ conditioner and blow-dryer. As well as extra linens for beds and sofa bed if needed.

We have a large dock, so you can enjoy endless hours of catching bluegill, large mouth bass, and northern pike.

Available Free to use: (2) adult kayaks, (2) child kayaks, and a metal john boat w/trolling motor located in the boat house. Firewood bundles are available onsite for purchase, honor system cash box or QR code to pay onsite.

Being on Highway 13 gives you endless trails for riding ATVs and bikes. Munising is a 30 minute drive north, and Manistique is 20 minutes East. At The Kidd cabin you are right in the middle of it all.

We also allow camper trailers to be parked on the property for an additional fee, just message ahead of time!

NOTES:
-The one bathroom in the cabin is a "pass thru" bathroom and to access it, you need to walk through a bedroom.
-There are two surveillance cameras: one on the corner of the garage facing the front door entrance and another at back of property facing our pontoon boat for security.

Our family had a wonderful time at this cabin. The backyard area with the bar was the perfect spot to hang out as a family and enjoy the lake. I would recommend this place to families w children of all ages.

We had a wonderful time and the hosts were great. I forgot to retain the passcode info for check in and then had no wifi/connection to look up the info so we had to drive up the road a ways until we had cell service (this was totally my fault) so friendly reminder to remember to get the information so this doesn't happen to you! Thanks for the great visit to the UP!

Relaxing lake getaway

The place is on a beautiful part of Gooseneck lake, we enjoyed a WFH vacation outside at the bar, watching nature. The pellet grill/smoker and boats usage was a huge plus for us. Just keep in mind that the only bathroom can be accessed only from one of the bedrooms and there’s a pass through between two rooms. It’s definitely a cabin for people who like each other. I would definitely stay here again!

Very nice place!

I went here with my boyfriend and two other couples. There’s 3 bedrooms so it slept the 6 of us perfectly. We loved the bonfire and indoor/outdoor bar area. The boys loved fishing on the lake there. There’s no phone service which is to be expected for that area, but the wifi was good and we had no issues using our phones at the cabin. Pictured rocks is only about 45 minutes away. Perfect little getaway!

Great quiet getaway

Wonderful little house on a quiet lake in the middle of the UP. Everything with the property is as advertised and the host is great with communication. We couldn't get cellular signal in this very secluded location, but the Wi-Fi works great … and maybe having no cell signal was a blessing to help enjoy the peace and quiet this place affords. Highly recommend and much appreciated!

Wonderful Hideaway

If you want a cozy cabin that’s hidden away, then you have found the right place. My kids loved the kayaks/canoe/peddle boat. My husband loved the strong WiFi. I enjoyed the deck with the beautiful view. Be sure to bring supplies because there is no stores close by. Fair warning to cPap users, there is no close outlet to the bed. We had a great time and will be back. s.
