Rustic Lake Michigamme Hideaway

Cozy log cabin nestled in the woods on beautiful Lake Michigamme. In winter, enjoy snowmobiling (with trailer parking), cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or ice fishing right from your doorstep. Centrally located, it’s a perfect base for exploring UP attractions. After a day out, unwind by the fire. In summer, kayak, fish, or swim off the dock, with many beautiful hiking areas nearby to explore. Start your day with breathtaking sunrises and end with peaceful lake views—a true UP retreat!

This cozy log cabin offers two main-floor bedrooms with queen beds and a full bath, plus an upstairs loft with two twin beds and a bathroom featuring a charming clawfoot tub. The cabin includes a full kitchen with a dining table, a comfortable living room, and a large deck equipped with a picnic table and grill—perfect for outdoor meals. Follow a rugged path down to the lake, where you’ll find a dock ready for your boat during the summer months, along with kayaks and a fishing boat available for guest use.

The cabin is nestled approximately 5 miles down a scenic gravel road off the main road, offering a true retreat into nature. While the road is accessible, we recommend a 4-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicle for comfortable access, especially in winter months. Guests have full access to the cabin, large deck, yard, dock, kayaks, and fishing boat, along with nearby trails. Parking is available on-site, including space for trailers.

Cabin is located in a remote, wooded area outside of Michigamme. The town of Michigamme itself (an approximate 10-minute drive) has a gas station/market with a good selection of groceries.
