This is a beautiful, quaint, historic cabin to stay at. We did what was asked, bring our own water and pack out all our trash. It snowed some of the days we were there (It was early October) but the fire stove kept us warm the whole time. The propane oven/refrigerator felt luxurious when deep in the mountains. We had plenty of space, enjoyment, and comfort in the cozy home. We went on a small hike to Golden Trout Lake and it was beautiful. Lots of various types of fungi to look at and learn more about. I hear there are a bunch of mining towns that around the area, but we did not venture out too much to see them. Overall, this is a wonderful place to stay and I hope to plan another trip here in the future!

The description says it all. It is isolated. There are trails close by if you like to walk/ hike. It is a bit of a drive to get to the Bighorn Crags trailhead and Yellowjacket lake. If you have a side by side or other ORV, folks who have been there posted in the log book that they enjoyed riding around the area. There was plenty of firewood and having the propane appliances and lights were great. The temperature did dip down into the thirties. The wood stove kept us very cozy. You may want to bring something to start your fire with(fat wood for example). There isn’t an experience like this in Michigan. We enjoyed it very much.

We loved our stay at the cabin. It did take us a day to figure out how to turn the gas oven or the lights on (the guard flame was out and we are not familiar with either a gas oven or gas lights). A short paragraph on how to turn them on would be nice. The cabin had plenty of firewood and was reasonably clean (a dead mouse in a cupboard, but something like that is to be expected). Regardless, we had a great time at the cabin and will definitely be back!

This was our 2nd stay here. Fall is a wonderful time to visit. The cabin was clean and in good condition. Lots of beaver dams to check out on Meadow Creek (note, the trailhead for Meadow and Beaver Creek is at the same location on Beaver Creek- don't go by the map). The trail by Beaver Creek is good for biking or an easy hike, and it's closed to ATV's after Labor Day.

What a delightful stay! The cabin is way off the beaten path, well-stocked, and in a gorgeous location. This was the perfect escape from 2020.
