We stayed at the Forest Lake House on a snowmobiling trip. The driveway had enough room for a couple of trucks and a long trailer. The house was compact but had everything that we needed. The view from the living area was beautiful and the second living area in the basement provided plenty of space to relax. It looks like this would be a great place in the summer too as it has multiple decks that make their way down to the river. This property had very easy access to the snowmobile trails via the side of the road for 0.4 miles to trail 8.
We enjoyed our visit to Au Train, and this house was really perfect for our family size (2 adults, 3 kids 9, 6, and 2 1/2). It was very clean and spacious. We didn't use the firepit, but my kids tried kayaks for the first time, which they loved. The lake isn't really ideal for swimming (weeds/muck), but perfect for fishing or kayaking. The house is a bit close to the busy road, so that's my one caution for families with young children. The house is pretty toddler-proof though :) AuTrain is just 5 minutes down the road, and has a great pizza place, along with a small conveniece store. Munising is nice and close for groceries or food too. I highly recommend checking out the waterfalls in this area. AuTrain Falls is right down the road, and Wagner Falls is maybe 10 minutes away. The one quirk was a noisy doorbell unit in the hallway, but it didn't bother me, though it could be a little annoying for some. I would absolutely return to this house!
We all loved the house. It was very clean and the beds and furniture were comfortable. The location was very nice and private. We had a lake directly in our back yard and enjoyed the firepit in the evenings and the kayaks. It was a small branch off of the larger Au Train lake but an easy row to the bigger lake and very safe. It was so peaceful to sit on the dock and hear the birds and frogs sing while fishing. We had some nice hikes. Particularly liked Chapel Falls and Chapel Beach hike. It was beautiful. We took the Pictured Rocks Cruise tour and we visited Marquette Maritime museum and lighthouse. The Delft theatre was a great delicious restaurant in Marquette. We also took a day trip to Mackinac Island which was a 2.25 hr drive away. That was so fun. There was a lot of driving but everything was within about a half hr to 40 min drive away at most. We did a lot of walking. We also spent a day at home chilling. There was wifi and roku tv and some games. There is a little grocery right up the street, Au Train grocery and they had most of what we needed. We only did one initial grocery trip to Munising. On the last day we drove up to Ipsheming and toured the iron mine. That was fun too. There were a few things that didnt open until Memorial Day like the glassbottom boat tours of shipwrecks, so missed that one, but the maritime museum was really great too. Thanks for a great stay.

Reviewer Comments:
house was very clean ! A few issues tho. Large spider nest in the kayak, unaware until out on the water. Pots and pans were worn out, no finish on the bottom. Steps to the lake covered in green mold and slippery, causing a fall down 10 steps! Need to be scrubbed. Volume does not work on the bedroom TV upstairs. No emergency numbers for needs after hours. Toilet in the upstairs bathroom slow to flush. Cornhole board broken. Able to play by propping it up tho. No info about supplies in the garage as part of our stay, just had to sort out what was available.

This house wasn’t our first choice, but we were moved here after a maintenance issue at the first house. We realize sometimes these things happen and they were very apologetic and gave us a partial refund which we felt was a generous amount. It was nice this house has 2 bathrooms and the view in the back was really nice and peaceful. There are lots of birds to watch. We wished we had brought binoculars to see the birds on the lake better. We had chilly weather, but the outdoor area would be nice to use if it was warmer. We didn’t need the third bedroom, but noticed it didn’t have a window. They did add a fire extinguisher for safety. The kitchen was small but adequate. It was very clean.

Comfortable, cozy accommodations for two active couples. Great location to come home to after hiking and sightseeing in and around Munising. Beautiful wooded views of the lake, where we saw a coyote, 2 eagles, and deer. We would love to come back!

This was a great house in a great location! We enjoyed our stay.
This was our first time venturing into the UP. We loved the lakefront property. Access to Lake Au Train directly from our personal dock was great, appreciated having the boat and kayaks on site with life preservers. Location has great proximity to the offerings of Munising and the Pictures Rocks.
Stayed here for 2 nights. 2 families with preteen boys to explore the Pictured Rocks area. The house was clean & in a great location to Munising. Right off the road but had a private back deck with no neighbors that you could see. The boys enjoyed fishing off the dock and in the rowboat and caught numerous small perch and a pike right from the dock.
