A Perfect Northern Get-Away On The Scenic Big Creek In Luzerne


This is a very clean, warm, cozy and relaxing 2 bedroom retro cabin located within the Huron National Forest on the crystal clear Big Creek, a main tributary to the Ausable River. You will be pleased to find a host of basic amenities. This is the perfect place to unplug from your busy life and enjoy watching the various wildlife and many bird species, reading a book & dining in the screened porch while watching and listening to the river, not to mention the starry night campfires. Your stay can include many outdoor activities, such as: visiting the large neighboring Amish community with their tidy farms and unique stores, fishing, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, ATV riding, hiking, scenic overlooks and much more. We find that when many of our guests arrive they prefer to just stay and enjoy the very unique, quiet and natural surroundings.

This Cabin is an Adult Only Rental. Limit of 4 guests. We welcome 2 night minimum stays, weekly rentals and 3 night minimum stays on Holiday weekends.

* One of our main goals is to keep guests costs at a minimum. We do not charge a cleaning fee and you will not see a " Host Fee" when you finalize your booking. For everyone's convenience fiberoptic wifi is available. We are located in a River Valley so cell signals can vary. There is a Verizon Cell tower in our Village of Luzerne. We provide an up to date T.V. and D.V.D. player so bring your favorite movies and connectivity devices along. The T.V. does bring in some local channels.

Winter months require a 4 Wheel or All Wheel Drive Vehicle to maneuver our driveway.

We absolutely enjoyed the river setting and cabin ambiance. It’s private, quiet, and surrounded with bird song. The owner helps to flip your thinking from a hotel setting to your own home by having the guest responsible for light cleaning for the next guest. He’s able to reduce the fees and increase the value to the consumer by this method. Doing so is well worth it for the opportunity to stay here. We are grateful the owners are willing to share this cabin with us. We certainly plan to return in the future.

We were given a front row view to the first snow of the year in a breathtaking setting. This cabin had everything we needed and was so cozy as we watched snow falling. The birds visiting the feeder throughout the day were so active! We can't wait to go back for a trip this summer!

This is a wonderful refurbished old family cabin on a feeder creek to the main Au Sable River. The place keeps the old cabin charm with a mix of nice updates. The cabin is very clean, and the kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked with essentials. There is a great gas grill out front, along with a wonderful double wooden swing looking over the creek and a firepit. Nick was excellent at communicating and check in was a breeze. He even offered a late checkout since no one was coming in behind us. As per the listing, to keep the pricing down, you are asked to bring your own linens (queen beds) and towels and to leave the place as you found it. The cleaning list before checkout is very manageable. It took me about 35 minutes working alone at a leisurely pace. Two people could probably do it in less than 20 minutes.This is our second stay with Nick at a second property in the area, and we will definitely be coming back again. Great bargain for the price.
