About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Banks - Rustic and Waterfront! Secluded and Special! Kayaks and Canoes are included for guest use by RedAwning

Secluded "cabin" literally ON the black river - you can't get any closer!

This rough and rustic property is great for guests looking for a true Michigan

woods experience but especially the water lovers - 4 Kayaks and 2 Canoes are

included in your stay so you can enjoy the river. Great for relaxing by the

river, fishing, hunting, and enjoying the local Northeastern State Trail which

is known for great walking and cycling. There is over 600 acres of state land

nearby that can be used for wildlife sports and activities nearby.



The area also features amazing local four-wheeler trails, great local Black

Lake Golf Course, and Onaway Speedway for those racing enthusiasts. This

property is a great central location for many northern Michigan tourist

destinations like Roger City, Cheboygan, Mackinaw City, Mackinaw Island,

Charlevoix, Petoskey, Gaylord, and Indian River. Black Lake, Black River,

Mullett Lake, Burt Lake, Ocqueoc River, Cheboygan River, and more. Great

local restaurants like Woodwinds and Manzanas.

Family getaway

We enjoyed this cabin so much. It was a wonderful location, very secluded and quiet. The boys did a lot of fishing, caught a pike the first day there! The kayaks and canoes were so much fun to go around in. Very nice place

Incredible

This was our first attempt at a friend group vacation with children and this place made everything worthwhile! The canoes and kayaks were a HUGE hit with the kiddos and there was plenty of space for adults to hang out after the youngins went to bed. We will definitely be back!

Great place to relax with nature!

Great space to hang with friends. Kitchen upstairs and downstairs. Downstairs walks out to nicely shaded patio area right on the river. This is a damned area of the river, so the river is slow moving and there is lots of seaweed in the overflow areas. The kayaks are easy to paddle up stream and down though. Lots of cranes, ducks, and turtles to watch from shore. They had binoculars for us too! As soon as you pull in the driveway you feel secluded and private. No one across the shore and great star gazing! Easy checkin with key code provided prior to arrival!

Great Spot to many locations

Our stay was great. The space was perfect for the amount of people we had staying (3 kids, 6 adults). The split between up and down stairs was great for early risers vs those that slept in. The outside property was great for play, bon fires, kyaking/canoeing, the kids even swam. The river is great to go site seeing, the trails are great for walks. We ventured to Mackinaw Island and Cehboygan, loved the short distance from the house. The house had just about anything you needed. Only thing I would say was a small issue was there was a stale smell in the master room which made it a bit uncomfortable to sleep in but feel that can be because of the older cottage like feel. All other rooms and the home were comfortable and so great. Our family truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely be back.

Overall, it's not a bad place to stay.There are a few issues if you don't like goose poop, don't come here.The fact that they don't clean it up and don't give you a rake or a broom, you could clean up goose poop, it's everywhere.Air conditioners are inadequate for the amount of space. They cover, considering they know people are going to come in and out. Two of the beds are worn out.And have ruts in them making them very difficult to get a good night's sleep.But the inside of the house was clean and had plenty of other amenities. Like movies, games, kayaks, canoes. We had a great time despite the little setbacks.

Up North Gem

We are kicking ourselves in the rear for only booking this place for 3 days. We visited Michigan for 11 and if we could go back and book this for the whole time we would. My husband fished from sun up to sun down - well, past sundown... it's so nice having the dock just feet from the home. We spotted a buck going for a little swim, tons of birds, and he caught some beautiful fish, (all released for the next visitors!). Can't forget the turtles too! It was great to watch the geese hang out on the island. The Blackstone grill was so fun to cook on, now I have to buy one. The layout of the house is fantastic, especially for large groups. It's basically two houses in one. There are two kitchens and two living rooms. Upstairs has killer views and downstairs does too! The house isn't fancy, but the beds are comfy and we felt at home. No wi-fi no problem, with the kayaks and canoes we never got bored. No neighbors either, you can only see one house pretty far away. We will be back, hopefully, you guys save some time for some of your earlier renters because we never want to stay anywhere else! Thank you for a wonderful time.
