About this property

Entire place

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

Intimate Cabin Off The Beaten Path

Minutes from the Kingsley Club yet only 14 miles from downtown Traverse City!

From the covered porch, past the fire pit, walk down the stairs, to historic railroad tracks that hold their majestic beauty. Then continue down the wood chipped path to 100 ft of Northern Michigan's Boardman River, a blue ribbon trout stream!

The cabin can sleep four comfortably. The one bedroom accommodates two with the full bed. Also full size futon, and twin sleeper sofa. The loft is spacious, and can be staged for our guests with one king mattress or two twin mattresses. A total of up to four guests are welcome. Additional guests may be considered, and will be an additional fee per day.

The nearby adventures that await are: snow shoeing, skiing, (cross country and downhill), kayaking, horseback riding, hunting, fishing, hiking, golfing, snowmobiling, (trail 510), wineries and color tours.

❄️ Please note- during winter months -with any amount of snowfall- an AWD, 4WD, or snow tires on the vehicle would be necessary. The cabin is 2 miles off the main road. ❄️

Whether one wants to enjoy the tranquility of the cabin or are intrigued by the energy of the river... memories will forever be engrained.

Jodi was very friendly, attentive and accommodating. The cabin was spotless and was very warm and cozy to stay in. Located on a beautiful piece of property, off the beaten path but still very close to attractions nearby. I could have spent weeks there - would love to stay here again someday!

River Tracks Cabin is adorable!

My husband and I really enjoyed our long weekend at the cabin. The location feels very secluded, but is still close to everything. The trek down to the river dock and the cute nature trails were such fun features.

Amazing property tucked away in a wooded area. Located about 25 minutes from the heart of Traverse City, but far away from the hustle & bustle. My husband and I celebrated our Anniversary here. Loved the river, hiking, and the evening fires. Hosts had excellent communication. We really enjoyed our stay.
