The rustic log cabin features warm wood interiors, skylights that bring in natural light, a cozy wood stove, and a screened porch overlooking the peaceful river, creating the perfect setting to relax after a day on the water. Ideally located just 45 minutes from the famed Holy Waters of the Au Sable River and within easy reach of the Jordan, Boardman, and Manistee Rivers, the property offers access to some of the best fishing in the Midwest.
