100yr Old Log Cabin On Autrain River Near Pictured Rocks And Lake Superior

Conveniently located in the heart of the upper peninsula just minutes from Pictured Rocks, Lake Superior, dozens of waterfalls and endless outdoor activities and adventures. AuTrain River Cottages are located in a private association that is quiet and beautiful. There is about a 100 yards of river frontage to enjoy and relax next to. Cottages are pet friendly and range from one bedroom to 4 bedrooms and can accommodate from one to 8 guests. Each Cottage has all amenities included like WiFi, towels, linens, blankets, pillows and cooking supplies. There is a fire-pit area for guests to enjoy a fire w/a view of the river and wood can be purchased locally. Also included is a gas grill w/propane, and one free standard kayak rental from Da Ya Shak. Launching of the canoe is on site and shuttle service is available. Additional kayaks are available for rent. A fishing boat w/motor are available to you on site for a discounted rate. Mooring your own boat is a possibility, contact me for details.

DA Spruce is a bigger one bedroom Log Cabin. The original part of the cabin is nearly 100 years old and was added on to in the 50's. The old logs are still in tact and make for a very authentic feel inside. This place is perfect for a couple, or a small family. The kitchen is fully stocked and has a dining table for 4. There is A/C, WiFi, and a 42" TV where you can sign into your own streaming service or free streaming included with the TV. There is a queen in the bedroom and two futons in the living room, with plenty of room to move around. Cabin could easily accommodate 4 adults. New in 2017, a large bathroom was installed with a 36" shower stall and adjoining closet area for guests luggage and gear. 2016 was it's first rental season in 25 years, and since people couldn't have been happier. If you want to step back in time but have modern amenities available, this is your place!

The AuTrain River provides excellent swimming, and canoeing/kayaking as it winds 12 miles through the Hiawatha National Forest. Further down river puts you into Lake Superior and quite possibly the best beach on all of Lake Superior. Up river is the beautiful AuTrain Lake which provides a wonderful place to enjoy water sports, fishing or just a relaxing cruise. Bass, Walleye or Pike are your most commonly fished.

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore located in Munising is only 15 minutes away and there are over a dozen waterfalls within a 30 mile radius. The National Lakeshore provides days worth of outdoor activities. If you are into fishing, Trout and Salmon are the most commonly fished in Lake Superior.

I have seen nearly everything in this area and am a great resource during your stay. I will meet with you after you arrive and give you advice about the area and things you can enjoy during your vacation.

37th Anniversary Trip

Looked the cozy feel of cabin, close enough to town and falls..but, far enough away to not be too "crowdy". Loved how many falls and sites were close enough to see.

The cabin was everything we needed for our stay. It was centrally located to many waterfalls, hiking trails, Lake Superior, and great food. We especially enjoyed the Brownstone Inn. Cory was a wonderful host. His suggestions were very helpful. His giant “notebook” of places to go and see made our choices of where to visit and hike much easier. I highly recommend a stay. I’m a professional Santa Claus and Cory’s cabin is 100% Santa approved

I can't begin to express how pleased I was with this cabin! It was EXACTLY what I was looking for! I have been to the area frequently but have only camped Pictured Rocks and stayed in Munising. I was pleasantly surprised at how close to everything this actually was. Love that Lake Superior is right down the road too...it means I didn't have to miss any sunsets! The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything I needed in both the kitchen and bathroom. It was nice and quiet at night. This place felt like home to me - I will be back!!

100 year old cabin

The listing for this cabin is accurate. It is a 100 year old cabin, but it is very functional and comfortable for 2 people to stay. From where the cabin is located it is very easy to access the Au Train river or go to Munising or Marquette for activities or restaurants. There are also plenty of hiking or biking trails in the area. We will definitely be coming back to this area.

Cabin with good location

Great spot for sightseeing. It was pretty cold when we stayed and the propane heater was nice but didn’t feel comfortable sleeping with it on so there were some COLD mornings until it warmed up again. Netflix didn’t work due to the sharing changing nationally that weekend. Small but good for two!
