Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt H. 10 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Gem on the Au Sable This well-appointed cabin met our needs perfectly. Upon arriving, it was clear that someone had put some love into the cabin. This little gem was recently updated, and the grounds were well-maintained with parking for several vehicles. There was plenty of space to do some practice casting before heading out onto the river. A little dock was easily accessible and the perfect place to enjoy a steaming mug of morning coffee while watching the river babble by. There was a picnic table, charcoal grill, and comfortable Adirondack chairs, with three canoes and a clothesline to dry out our waders. For a family gathering, there is plenty of lawn space (if you wish to bring yard games), and a firepit for marshmallow roasts, with plenty of stacked firewood for our entire stay (including a cart for transporting it from the woodpile to the pit). The cabin itself was pristinely clean, with new appliances (including dishwasher and microwave) and fully stocked kitchen with coffee maker and toaster. Next to the kitchen was a laundry room with full-size washer and dryer. The living room was comfortable, with a bedroom (king bed) and full bathroom on the main floor. On the second story were two bedrooms (each with a queen-sized bed), and a loft area (two twin beds) between the bedrooms; all were comfortable. The location is perfectly situated for the purpose of our visit: fly-fishing on the Au Sable in a serene and private setting. We would return in a heartbeat. ##### Matt H.
