Riverfront Home~On ATV Trails~Near Mackinac Island

Welcome to The River Hutch, an outdoor/adventure lover's paradise. Now with a newly renovated kitchen!

The River Hutch is located on a large 10-acre private lot with beautiful Pine River frontage. The property is paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. You will enjoy daily wildlife sightings all while surrounded by towering Birch, Cedars, and Pines. The well appointed interior offers three bedrooms and two baths on a split floor plan that provides space and privacy.

The upper level contains two of the bedrooms, one bathroom, and the kitchen that flows freely into the living room and upper level wrap around deck. The large windows and full wall of glass doors provide beautiful views from every room.

The lower level consists of one bedroom and one bathroom as well as a spacious rec room. The large rec room has a TV area with sleeper sofa, and full wall of sliding glass doors that connect you to the lower level deck. On the lower level deck, guests will enjoy a covered sitting area and porch swing.

Just a short walk from the lower deck, The Pine River offers excellent fishing right from the bank/dock. If fishing isn't for you, settle into one of the provided kayaks and paddle down the slow-moving river out to Lake Huron. Trail riders can bring their ATVs/Snowmobiles and access trails right from the cottage or trailer to one of many nearby trail heads. There is plenty of space for trailer parking and an easy turn around.

The cottage is conveniently located near all of the Upper Peninsula's sightseeing attractions. Mackinac Island (about 15 minute drive to the ferry dock), Les Cheneaux Islands (10 minutes), De Tour Village and Drummond Island (45 minutes), Pictured Rocks, Kitch-iti-kipi Springs, Whitefish Point, Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum and many amazing hiking/ATV/Snowmobile trails. The quaint town of St. Ignace is 15 minutes away and provides everything you need for groceries, shopping, and restaurants.

Clean, Quiet and Beautiful

Upon arriving to The River Hutch, you are greeted with a private driveway with a gorgeous landscape of birch trees and a charming cabin seated on roughly 10 acres off of the edge of the Pine River. This was by far one of the most relaxing stays we’ve had. The whole family and even our German Shepard dog Gus felt at home right away. This was the ideal stay as it had plenty of space and amenities as well as a boat launch, kayaks, back patio overlooking the river and a fire pit. The rooms were spacious and even had 2 bathrooms which was ideal for larger families. The overall look was modern with a quaint and charm that can only be described by experiencing it for yourself. We recommend to anyone looking for peace and quiet with all the comforts of home. We will definitely be coming back!

Perfect Home Base

Waking up here for a week was wonderful! This stay checked a lot of boxes for us and was a great place for us to get out and explore a large portion of the U.P. The wonderful back porch and patio areas are the highlight of this property, with the gorgeous Pine River and a busy beaver to watch, the mornings here were wonderful. This property offers a lot of amenities, including handsoap, some sample toiletries, and linens. I was a bit surprised there wasn't any dishsoap, but being inexpensive and we were going up to Sault Sainte Marie to grocery shop anyways, it wasn't a big deal. The house was pretty clean considering it can house so many people and the occasional pet. I did not find any stray hairs or dirt, but did take some pictures of things, like a bedroom door, to not incur any additional fees. The host just started using a new management system for their listing, so I did receive quick communication from Michelle on what email to look for in order to finalize payment. She also answered my questions very quickly and was quite pleasant to work with. Overall, we loved staying here and would definitely stay here again!

Nice, cozy home away from home

The home was the perfect size for our family! My grandparents enjoyed having their own space in the lower level. The nature was so fun to watch every day. It was cozy enough that we decided to spend our last day in the UP at the house rather than traveling.
