🔸Please know this property has two cabins, about 30 yards apart. The driveway into the property is shared for both cabins, but each cabin has its own private parking. The interior of the small cabin, the charcoal grill, the attached deck of the small cabin, and fire pit behind the small cabin is 100% private to the small cabin renter. However, all other exterior amenities such as the sauna, yard games, fire pit by the water, kayaks and more, are shared with the big cabin renter.

🔴 PROPERTY SUMMARY 🔴

🔹This cabin sits elevated and offset from the water about 60 yards, so your view from the cabin's are overlooking the water, bluffs and driftless region.

🔸Our 6 acre property sits on the Bad Axe River, also known as a "Class 1" trout stream. The spacious layout of amenities is ideal for families, groups, fishermen, outdoorsman, adventure seekers, or homebodies in need of a getaway

🔹A short one minute walk from the cabin to the river will give you access to swim, fish, and launch the kayaks or tubes. We do not offer transportation back to the property, but there is a public pick up point 2 miles down the river for kayaker's or tubers to get out of the water safely to drive back to the property.

🔸Along the river we have 215 feet of frontage to fish, take a dip, play fetch with the dog, or just sit in peace as the water flows downstream. In the large grassy area, we have an 8 seat fire pit, and other seating area to soak in the sights and sounds of nature.

🔹In the large grassy area, we have a 3 hole disc golf "course", a football, soccer ball, can jam, corn hole, and ball toss.

🔸Headed back to the cabins, you'll find a hang out area on the back side of the big cabin where you can relax in our 6 person sauna. Be aware the sauna can take up to 40 min to get to 170-185 °F depending on the time of year.

🔹About 20 yards away on the right side of the small cabin is one of the most relaxing spots on the property, where you'll enjoy your private 4 seat fire pit.

🔸Inside the cabin, the kitchen is fully stocked for your cooking needs

🔹Families will have access to a pack n play, high chair, and kids dinnerware

🔸The small cabin's living area is open and cozy, perfect for conversation, playing the guitar, or watching a movie while cooking. The living room has a pull out couch into a queen size bed, as well as a pellet stove for warm winter evenings.

🔹After brewing your complimentary coffee or heating some tea, you can step outside onto the deck overlooking the bluffs and water.

Perfect

The cabin and location was perfect, exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t experience any issues, communication with the host/owner was great if any problems did arise. Would love to come back and stay longer next time.
