Silver Mountain Cabins #2 (sleeps 9)

Welcome to Silver Mountain Cabins – Your Cozy Escape in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula
Create lasting memories at this one-of-a-kind, family-friendly retreat nestled in the heart of the Ottawa National Forest and the scenic Keweenaw Peninsula. Whether you're here for adventure or serenity, our location offers unmatched access to outdoor activities including hiking, fishing, snowmobiling, rockhounding, and premier hunting. We’re just 28 miles from Michigan Tech University, 10 miles from Lake Superior, and only minutes away from local favorites like Silver Mountain and Sturgeon River Falls.
Your Private Cabin in the Forest
This warm and inviting cabin is your private sanctuary during your stay. Designed with comfort and function in mind, the cabin sleeps up to 9 guests with:
One bathroom
A main-floor bedroom with one queen and one twin bed
A second main-floor bedroom with two twin beds
A spacious loft with one queen and two twin beds
All mattresses and bedding have been recently upgraded for a restful night’s sleep. Please note: the dining area seats six, and the living room comfortably seats three. Just outside your back door, you’ll enjoy a private fire pit—perfect for evening relaxation under the stars.
Stay Connected While You Unplug
While cell service is limited due to our remote location, we’ve equipped each cabin with fiber-optic internet, complete with a private router and unique login details—perfect for remote work, video calls, and streaming. Inside the cabin, you'll also find two Roku TVs, a thoughtfully curated selection of books and board games, and all the comforts you need for a cozy stay.
Explore the Property & Beyond
Set on 22 acres, this cabin is part of a larger homestead with two other guest cabins and a private residence. You’re welcome to explore the expansive grounds and shared amenities, including:
A grill and picnic area
A peaceful orchard and seasonal garden
Access to trails and open space that extend into the Ottawa National Forest
Nature lovers will appreciate the tranquil surroundings and spectacular night skies—some of the clearest star views in the region. Do keep in mind that we are truly immersed in nature, so occasional encounters with mosquitoes, flies, and even ladybugs are part of the experience. We regularly treat the cabins and offer additional bug spray or mid-stay service if needed to ensure your comfort.
We also have a small flock of chickens on the property and love to share farm-fresh eggs with our guests when available. If you’d like to meet the chickens or receive a dozen eggs, just let us know—we’re happy to make it a fun part of your stay!
Trail Rider's Dream Basecamp
We are located directly on Silver Mountain Road (Forest Service Road 2270), providing immediate access to UTV/ATV trails and nearby connections to Snowmobile Trail #12 and #109. Ride straight from the driveway into miles of designated trail systems—ideal for outdoor enthusiasts year-round.
📍 View our location and trail connections for ATV and UTV trails on the Trail Riders' Basecamp page
Hospitality on Your Terms
We respect your privacy and offer as much—or as little—interaction as you prefer. If you’d like to chat by the central fire pit, join us in the garden, or take part in a hosted bonfire night with desserts, just let us know. We live nearby and are always happy to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Great area to see the stars and northern lights . Very quiet area not far from hiking and fishing . The area is surrounded with state land and very close to the Sturgeon river to provide kayaking and canoeing . The cabin provided a great base camp for our bear hunt.

Quiet Cabin in the Woods

My husband and I (and our two dogs) stayed here while visiting family and exploring the Keweenaw peninsula. It was perfect for us. And the owners left us a carton of fresh eggs which we appreciated immensely. The area was quiet and peaceful. Just as we hoped.

We loved our stay here. Our younger ones are already planning a return trip! Location is in middle of the woods, is quiet, and, gorgeous. Close to hiking trails and towns. We made the drive up to Houghton, to see Lake Superior and is a pretty drive.

Top Notch Accommodations for snowmobilers

This place was great and spacious. The location is perfect for snowmobilers who are looking to all of the western UP. Plenty of parking on the property and super easy ride in and ride out trail access. Our hosts were extremely friendly, accommodating and excellent communicators. Will be coming back here for sure!

Silver Mt. Cabin vacation

We always try to stay somewhere that is economical, quiet and safe in terms of the neighborhood. This location provided all three and we were welcomed with our exuberant labs. Slept with the windows open and enjoyed fresh eggs from Mike's flock. What.more could you expect? We'll be back.

Nice Experience

We stayed here for two nights. The place is definitely off the beaten path and we liked it. Just be aware that the unpaved road is a little rough this time of year. We met the owner Mike not long after checking in and he was a really nice guy. I might try to come back during deer hunting (bow) season.

Hiking trip

My brother, his wife and I stayed here in September along with their doggos. The cabin was just as it is in the pictures listed. We had everything we needed to make the few meals we ate at there. Great eggs for breakfast! The owners are great with communication, and when we got there, Mike shared a few suggestions for places to checkout that were in the area. We took him up on those suggestions and enjoyed a few hikes nearby and one easily accessible beautiful view. This is an AMAZING property! We would absolutely stay here again.

Nice setting but dirty

The cabin is in a nice setting, but was not clean. We seriously had to wash all the dishes, silverware (clean out drawers), stove, refrigerator, floors, under beds, not because we're just fussy. It was bad. Linens on beds were clean. Owner was very friendly and kind.
