Cottage on a Lake. Near Pictured Rocks/ Munising

Down the U.P. backroads you will find this cottage on a unique peninsula of Thunder Lake. The cottage has a newly updated kitchen (2025) and amazing views of Thunder Lake. There is so much to see and do: Near Munising to go see Pic. Rocks Lakeshore (28 miles) and the waterfalls but also near Manistique to visit Big Springs (aka Kitchiti-kippi) a must see and it only approx. 10 miles) and Fayette State park. The Indian River is near and is a local favorite for canoeing or kayaking. Swim, fish, boat or lounge near the lake. Vacation of a lifetime. You will need several days!

Centrally located, Thunder Lake is in the heart of the Hiawatha National Forest, offering plenty of opportunities for those outdoor enthusiasts along with many other inland lakes for fishing, boating, hunting or swimming in the summer months. This cottage (also known as Camp Thunder Buck) is on the peninsula directly across from public boat launch. Bring your own fishing boat or use the one provided by us. Located within miles is Kitchiti-Kippi, Lake Michigan, the Indian River for canoeing/kayaking or travel 35 miles north to the Pictured Rocks to take a ride on the boat cruises, spend the day chasing waterfalls or hang out on the beach of Lake Superior. So much to do.... Please check back for updated pictures. We purchased this property 10/2016 and are in the process of many updates.

Entire house and lakefront.

We live in Munising and are a phone call away if needed.

There are neighbors...friendly neighbors. But you will have your own lakefront and privacy. The lake front for you to enjoy is a few hundred feet. There are kayaks, a peddle boat and a small rowboat for fishing. I suggest you bring life jackets...there are some available but I can't guarantee they are the sizes you need.

We want to be sure that our guests respect our neighbors space. We ask that quiet hours begin at 11 pm. No fireworks allowed.
Munising is about 28 miles....approx 12 on dirt roads. Nearest store is about 12 miles and nearest restaurant is about 12 miles. I will send some maps when it nears the booking date. I wouldn't always trust a GPS navigator to get you around the UP back roads. There isn't always service and they are not always accurate. See our "sister" property CAMP THUNDER BUCK TOO! Book both at the same time for a family reunion or large group.
