Trailside Fun River Cabin 21B

What do our guests say about us? Perfect! Amazing! Awesome! We will be back!

As you round the shoreline, the stretching waterfront landscape will catch your eye as you approach the parking lot directly in front of the lodge (Yes! There is ample space for a trailer!). You will use a keyless lock system to enter your cabin.

Open your door and you are already on the ground level of your new place! You will be instantly greeted with the aroma of pine which is visible in the tongue and groove walls and ceiling as well as an instant sight of north facing windows capturing a stunning view of the Portage Canal. What you will find on second look is a comfortable queen bed around the corner and many beautifully crafted pieces of cedar, Amish made furniture.

Traverse the stairs to the third floor and you will find an open lounge/entertainment area with two more queen bedrooms. This cabin accommodates six adults.

Each of our hand made, custom milled, northwoods cabins boast a three story duplex including a ground level, garden style unit and an upstairs double decker terrace style unit. The cabin size in total is 2,500 square feet! (550 and 1,950 square feet respectively). They all include full kitchens and washer/dryer units for your convenience and utility.

Walk out the back door onto your balcony and embrace the jaw dropping, sweeping beauty of the Keweenaw Waterway in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Whatever your needs may be: Visiting Michigan Tech, snowmobiling (the Bill Nichols trail is only .25 miles from the resort!), swimming at the beach, or skiing (Mont Ripley is less than 2 miles from the resort), we offer a comfortable, comprehensive resort experience for you.

Memories are in the making!

Welcome to Keweenaw Waters Resort!

Amazing Accommodations

The property was clean and beautiful. Very much enjoyed it. Great beds and great game room. Beautiful views. Love that it was dog friendly. (Hoping there is more green space in future plans?) will stay here again and recommend this to others.

Copper County Stay

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the canal! Our accommodations were perfect, comfortable, and lots of space! Only downside (minimal) -wish we had the option to turn off the balcony’s outdoor lights…the canal and the night sky is SO beautiful, and it would’ve been nice to cut out some of the light pollution. Definitely will recommend to our friends and family!!

Gorgeous view with comfortable & clean accommodations!! Great for families or a group of friends!

We truly enjoyed our stay! It was welcoming the minute we walked in the door... and the view of Hancock out the balcony was gorgeous (especially at night with the snow and all the lights across the canal)!! We really were impressed with the entertainment made available in the upstairs as well as well as all the little extras to accommodate all (ie; boots dryers, washer & dryer, and even the dog blanket with water & food dishes to boot... impressive!! We will definitely be back and highly recommend others to stay!! Thank you again for making our stay such a pleasant visit!!
