Very private, easy access, which is just about 100 yards off the Highway, so easily accessible in the summer and fall with any vehicle.

If you are new to ice fishing, and want to give it a try, I would be happy to provide some assistance if available.

It’s a very nice and clean cottage on a river. I stayed there because it was a central location to explore different places in the central Upper Peninsula. The location is a bit remote, being about 20 miles from a grocery store and restaurants, but I didn’t find that to be a major problem. All in all I had a pleasant experience and recommend this cottage to others.

Perfect quiet and remote

This was the perfect way for us to get away from the business of our lives with 6 children after caretaking for sick parents for the last 5 years. We napped in the quiet of the forest and did some sight seeing as we wanted. The cabin is well stocked you’ll only need to take some food and your personal items.

Amazing peace of paradise

Our stay was amazing. It was exactly what my family needed. The property is everything you could ever ask for and the cabin was super clean and cozy. It had everything you could think of to cook and plenty of things to entertain the kids. The river is really relaxing, we recommend making this your next destination.

A great little cabin to explore the UP from. Very relaxing and out of the way. Plenty of privacy yet all the comforts of home. No real cell signal, so be prepared to enjoy some of life without the internet. Would stay again!

Wonderful little cabin

This place is a wonderful little cabin, very clean and well stocked with necessities. The view from the deck is overlooking the river, and the property is very spacious for walking and wandering. The only downside is the traffic noise from the nearby bridge. We would still consider booking this cute cabin next time we travel to the UP!

River cabin

My wife and I really enjoyed our trip to Republic the fish weren’t biting while we were there so we did a lot of exploring some other great UP spots. Location was nice for going to Marquette or Iron Mountain and Crystal Falls. Kens garden was a nice bonus if you’re into that kinda stuff, I really liked it. Definitely would stay again.

Perfect place for relaxing, enjoy the outdoors, and getting away from the crazy world. We enjoyed the fire and roasted marshmallows, the big open area to blow bubbles, and to catch the hula hoops. Place is very clean and plenty of room for everyone. We took a walk along the river and enjoyed the scenery. Very nice and feels so secluded even though the highway is so close.

Republic is pretty much in the middle of the U.P. so everything is a 45 min drive and up for sight seeing, which made it great for what my wife and I planned. Be advised the cell coverage in most of the U.P. is not good.This property is nice and private with a gate at the end of the driveway. The owners Ken and Sara are awesome with communication, they get back to you with great information and a quick response. Will definitely consider this again for future stays. Dan and Melissa
