The Channel Cabin DBA 1153 Channel LLC The space The Channel Cabin is a perfect place to take a paddle down the channel, take the ORV's for a ride, or relax by the quiet fire pit. Enjoy the sound of the native loons in the evening and cruise the endless two tracks by day. It's a short walk to the channel that connects to not one, but two lakes to explore. You'll never run out of adventures at this newly remodeled picturesque Michigan cabin. The bathroom is small but functional with hot water, shower, toilet, and a small vanity. The cabin is on a side road with other cabins nearby. everyone is kind and keeps to themselves. If you have more questions feel free to ask cheers! Guest access Guests are welcome to use every square inch of the 1.5 acres. There are 4 kayaks for the guests pleasure as well! no extra charge! Other things to note: The path to the channel is spongy due to high lake levels. bring sandals or boots :) We have one neighbor about 100 yards away through some thin pines. The bathroom is small, but we have hot water, a vanity, shower, and of course a toilet. The bedrooms as seen in pictures are separated by curtains. the bath has a standard door for privacy. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91570000/91561900/91561802/4f96f244.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Idle-in-the-Wild Secluded Cabin-Wi-Fi, Hot Tub Idlewild - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 23 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=91561802&PinnedHotelID=91561802&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100610000/100601300/100601253/w7932h5284x9y11-a9b34208.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Adult Themed Cabin w/ Hot Tub Idlewild - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 32 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=100601253&PinnedHotelID=100601253&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118710000/118708600/118708501/14f3df70.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Foreman Lakefront Cabin Hot Tub Wi-Fi Dog Friendly Idlewild - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=118708501&PinnedHotelID=118708501&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113610000/113604600/113604569/c2461f61.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hawkins Hideout Luxury Cabin, Wi-Fi, Hot Tub!

We went out almost every day on the kayaks and enjoyed all that nature had to offer on the lakes. After a day of paddling the hot tub was such a lovely treat! On our rainy day we pulled the couch trundle into a bed and snuggled in for a relaxing movie day. We received kind and attentive communication from the host when we reached out with a question. ##### Susan C.

My husband and I stayed at this little cabin for a long weekend with our dog. We had a great time! The house is cozy and comfortable and we found it to be as described by the host. The hot tub is very nice and we also used the fire pit and grill. We absolutely loved the use of the kayaks, the channel and two lakes! We watched the sunset over the lake from the kayaks which was beautiful. Bring bug spray and expect to get a touch muddy but it is totally worth it! There is a nearby grocery store and hiking trails. We had an awesome trip! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/67ebe61f-5c23-482d-9e1e-51b986a5b574-1750881430259.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0e1a82bc-2ef7-4af4-af75-d2514ff125e4-1750881429814.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Aimee P.

If you need to get away for a while, this is the place for you. Perfect couple's getaway. AND, we could bring our dog.When we checked in, the host immediately asked if we needed anything and to contact him if we did.When we had one issue ( our fault, couldn't figure how to heat up the hot tub), Mike promptly texted us to solve it. It is very clean, comfy bed, all the basics provided. We definitely recommend it. ##### christine r.

The area around this property is unkept, the other 'houses' are run down, and there is junk in many of the yards. This was advertised as waterfront, but there is zero water view unless you walk down a long path, part of which is walking on RR ties, to get to a channel. There are no doors on the bedrooms, only curtains that don't come close to the floor, so you don't get any privacy. The host was very responsive and the hot tub was nice. ##### Sarah M.
