Right on the river and close to Lake Superior

Warm inviting cabin located in Au Train, Michigan. Look out your window and watch the gentle river flow, or better yet, sit on the large covered porch. Either way, you won't be farther than 50 feet from the water. If you're looking for adventure, this area has it all. Hiking biking, ATV's, snowmobile trails right down the road. But this river is known for its kayak and canoeing. It stretches nearly 7 miles, yet you end up 0.5 miles from where you started. Fish in the river or head up to Au Train lake. The lake is great for water sports, bird watching or swimming with a sand beach and campground. The sandy shores of Lake Superior are only 1 mile away. Located between Munising and Marquette, Au Train is the perfect place to settle down and enjoy all the U.P. has to offer. Firewood is available for purchase onsite

So Homey
We really didn't want to leave when it came time to check out. It definitely made our stay up north all the more cozy. The sauna is heavenly, and the people running it were so kind over text.

Home had everything we needed plus some. Loved the toys and games available for all ages. Only thing I would suggest is while its under construction to hang a curtain up for a bedroom door. It overall worked out perfectly for us and would definitely stay again.

Great Location
Quick access to the river with kayaks provided by the host. Plenty of room for our group of 10. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. Cindy was very responsive to our requests. Recommend this property to anyone.

The property was much closer to other properties than expected. Enjoyed the time but didn’t feel as secluded as hoped. No curtains over the main entrance door so hung a towel. My friend left her Apple Watch and efforts to contact the owner have gone unanswered so am currently disappointed.

Best rental Ever!
This is the best cabin ever, best location, right by the river, close to the beach. This cabin has everything you could need and every year it gets better and better. This year she has fire wood on property! Thanks Cindy for another great vacation!

Cute place next to river
The place was very cute with every you'd need. In the process of remodeling some things, and a couple of things will be fixed up I'm sure, but will be fine when completed. It was nice that the river was right there, and kayaking was fun for everyone!
