About this property
The Perfect Adventure Nest!
Your map app will direct you to the Melstrand Union General Store, when you arrive at the store there is a wooden fence on the east side of the building. At the end of the fence there is a driveway leading back towards the woods, just before the dumpster at the end you will see a brown cabin to your left. There is a single door on the north side of the building, that is the entrance. Please reach out to Ariana if you are having difficulty locating the cabin.
This cabin is brand new with everything you'll need after a long day of hiking, fishing, riding the trails, or exploring the beautiful Pictured Rocks National Lake Shore. It is walking distance from the Melstrand Union General Store where you can not only find gas but also snacks, hand scooped ice cream, baked goods (made fresh daily), sandwiches, and so much more!
We look forward to being a part of your UP experience!

This is a simple little cabin in the UP with a good location to Pictured Rocks area. We found it basic and reasonably priced for a couple of nights for us to enjoy the area. We appreciated the short stay opportunity and great communication with the owner/renter.
My wife and I stayed here for a few nights on our honeymoon. We wanted a place near Pictured Rocks as we planned to go kayaking. The cabin was in between the two ends of the park and gave convenient access to everything in between.
This property is exactly what we were looking for for our UP snowmobile trip. A store with ethanol free gas was on site at this property. Cabin was clean and beds were comfortable. Trail access was literally across the road. Grand Marais, Seney and Paradise trails were excellent and easy to access from this property. Will book here again for next trip.
The place was just what we wanted. Location is fantastic about halfway between Munising and Grand Marais. It was only about a mile from the Mosquito Falls/Chappel Rock loop we most wanted to hike.
We booked last minute and just needed a place to sleep. We had plenty of space for the 4 of us, the cooler and even counter space for the crockpot. The beds/pillows were just okay. We would definitely book here again.
Had everything we needed. Close to where we were hiking and about 15 mins from a small town. Its nice that there is a general store right next to it. People sell firewood all along that road. Surprised how long the hot water lasted. We had to shower 4 people in a row
What a perfect retreat down the road from Miners Falls, right next door to a charming general store, and sounds of chickens/roosters outside the open window. We loved it. WiFi, TV, table and kitchenette were perfect for our needs. Beds were high (great for rolling suitcases under) and very comfortable, plenty of hooks on the walls for hanging our adventure gear and towels.
I always bring a small fan with me in travels for the noise and airflow, though there is a great ceiling fan above one bed. Bathroom is large and water is good (plenty for hot showers and no well water smells or anything). The shop next door is open around 10am-6pm daily. It was fairly secluded and very quiet aside from a few trucks driving by (and some farm animal sounds which we greatly enjoyed- only noticeable with the windows open). There were two mugs in the cabinet, you may wish to pack additional microwaveable dishes depending on your needs. We saw chickens/roosters, turkeys, and fancy white geese down the lane next door - they kept to their own space.
Great place to stay. It was cozy and had everything we needed. Close to the snowmobile trail and gas is available at the general store during the day. We will definitely stay here again. The only issue we had was that the shower needs a higher water flow head. It wouldn't turn the water heater on by itself so we had to run a sink as well to get hot water. Not a big deal though
The location to nearby attractions was ideal; however, the shower temperature would fluctuate considerably and the heater did not work. We did appreciate the coziness and simplicity of the cabin.
This was very conveniently located and clean. However it had a bad odor and the kitchen was very sparsely furnished…only a microwave, refrigerator, coffee pot and 2 mugs. It was fine for our needs as we spent the day in Pictured Rocks or the town of Munising and just needed a place to shower and sleep.
Size and amenities were as expected. Host/property manager was very communicative and responded to all inquiries very quickly. It was cold in the property with no way to increase the temperature inside. Shower water was mostly cold which was not ideal over a rainy, cool weekend.
