100yr Old Log Cabin On Autrain River Near Pictured Rocks And Lake Superior

Conveniently located in the heart of the upper peninsula just minutes from Pictured Rocks, Lake Superior, dozens of waterfalls and endless outdoor activities and adventures. AuTrain River Cottages are located in a private association that is quiet and beautiful. There is about a 100 yards of river frontage to enjoy and relax next to. Cottages are pet friendly and range from one bedroom to 4 bedrooms and can accommodate from one to 8 guests. Each Cottage has all amenities included like WiFi, towels, linens, blankets, pillows and cooking supplies. There is a fire-pit area for guests to enjoy a fire w/a view of the river and wood can be purchased locally. Also included is a gas grill w/propane, and one free standard kayak rental from Da Ya Shak. Launching of the canoe is on site and shuttle service is available. Additional kayaks are available for rent. A fishing boat w/motor are available to you on site for a discounted rate. Mooring your own boat is a possibility, contact me for details.

DA Spruce is a bigger one bedroom Log Cabin. The original part of the cabin is nearly 100 years old and was added on to in the 50's. The old logs are still in tact and make for a very authentic feel inside. This place is perfect for a couple, or a small family. The kitchen is fully stocked and has a dining table for 4. There is A/C, WiFi, and a 42" TV with cable. There is a queen in the bedroom and two futons in the living room, with plenty of room to move around. Cabin could easily accommodate 4 adults. New in 2017, a large bathroom was installed with a 36" shower stall and adjoining closet area for guests luggage and gear. 2016 was it's first rental season in 25 years, and since people couldn't have been happier. If you want to step back in time but have modern amenities available, this is your place!

The AuTrain River provides excellent swimming, and canoeing/kayaking as it winds 12 miles through the Hiawatha National Forest. Further down river puts you into Lake Superior and quite possibly the best beach on all of Lake Superior. Up river is the beautiful AuTrain Lake which provides a wonderful place to enjoy water sports, fishing or just a relaxing cruise. Bass, Walleye or Pike are your most commonly fished.

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore located in Munising is only 15 minutes away and there are over a dozen waterfalls within a 30 mile radius. The National Lakeshore provides days worth of outdoor activities. If you are into fishing, Trout and Salmon are the most commonly fished in Lake Superior.

I have seen nearly everything in this area and am a great resource during your stay. I will meet with you after you arrive and give you advice about the area and things you can enjoy during your vacation.

Log Cabin Lounging
This very quaint log cabin is exactly as you see in the pictures. It gets very cold in the fall/winter, so bring extra layers and blankets. The gas fire place can be a bit tricky to get the right temperature. There are plenty of kitchen utensils to use including pots, pans, and dishware. The cabin is located in a convenient location near the lakeshore, a small store, and plenty of trails. The cabin sits in a quiet and secluded neighborhood. Cell service was not great, but there was strong wi-fi.

Quiet Getaway Stay in Great Location
This small but quaint cabin had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. It was very quiet at night! Loved being in AuTrain. This was a great place to stay that allowed us to take day trips to Grand Marais and Munising, and to explore the surrounding area.

Perfect place for a small group of friends or family! Right off of the au train river which is perfect for kayaking or snorkeling and a good halfway point between Marquette and Munising. Great place to stay if your looking to do hiking around the area and an absolutely beautiful location!

Cabin with good location
Great spot for sightseeing. It was pretty cold when we stayed and the propane heater was nice but didn’t feel comfortable sleeping with it on so there were some COLD mornings until it warmed up again. Netflix didn’t work due to the sharing changing nationally that weekend. Small but good for two!

A cozy cabin
My wife and I reserved this location for our anniversary and ended up having to bring our two young children. It was just the right size for us, because we didn't spent much time in the cabin. I think this location would be ideal for two people, but it can sleep more; I wouldn't say comfortably though. The cabin was clean and had a positive ambiance. I could tell the owners put deliberate TLC into improving the cabin. The facilities worked well, and the internet was a lot better than expected. The area it is in was a little bit busy with other cabins, but we rarely saw other people. It's about a 10-15 minute drive from Munising and it was really easy to find even after dark. I'd recommend going here and would consider it again in the future. Maybe next time without the kids. 😁

Picture Rocks trip
The pictures of the cabin are spot on. Lots of storage for your stuff. There wasn’t a view of river from this cabin but a short walk. The campfire site by the river is community but really feels like it belongs to sites on the river. We were about 30 min from Munising. Nice scenic drive plenty of road side spots to stop and dip your toes into the lake. We took advantage of canoeing down Autrain river. But be advised the yak shack doesn’t honor the free kayak or canoe as advertised in listing. After long conversation they did give us a 25.00 credit towards a canoe ( so we paid 20). Definitely worth it. It’s a slow winding river. Lots of spots to stop and have lunch. Will definitely consider coming back. But getting a cabin closer to the water.

Not what we wanted
We were not happy with our cabin. The bed and pillows were very uncomfortable, as was the furniture. The cabin was too rustic and small. We were not able to contact anyone, and we got a hotel.

Cute little cabin! Perfect for one or two people, but I don’t think I’d try to fit any more than that! A bit out of the way, but not far off a drive into Munising, an hour from Marquette, 30-60 minutes from Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, depending on what end you start exploring from. Only issues I had with the property were that the coffee maker needed to be cleaned well before I made coffee (bugs floating on top of the water once the reservoir was filled) and the cloth futon really needs a cover (you could feel the dirt and grime on the cloth as soon as you touched it!). Other than that, it was an adorable little place, nice and quiet and private.

Great Little Cabin
The Cabin it's self is a great little get away. Loved the fact that it was located right by the Au Train River and just about a 15 minute drive from Munising. If you are looking for a place that you can lay low and get awy from the busy world and just enjoy time in nature with either friends family or a significant other. This is a great place to be! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone, affordable and enjoyable is my best way to describe it!

Nice but not exactly what I pictured
It was definitely a small one bedroom cabin and very clean. The bed was comfortable but the futon wasn’t. In the photo it looks like there are two bedrooms, but it’s definitely only one. It’s definitely not going to hold “up to 5 people “ very well at all! However, it was plenty big for a friend and I for a girls getaway. The kitchen was small but very functional. The bathroom had a nice shower and was actually very good sized. A little closet was perfect for storing our items. We didn’t spend a lot of time here as we spent most of our time exploring pictured Rocks and the waterfalls!
