About this cabin rental
Come rest, relax, and enjoy the sounds and sights of the Boardman River in our cozy, rustic 800 square foot cabin. Bedroom one has a queen size bed, while bedroom two offers a double bed and a twin bed. Cook meals in our efficient kitchen, or grill on the charcoal grill. Our large comfortable sofa beckons you to relax, read a book, watch birds at the feeder, or view kayakers as they paddle down the river. Free WiFi allows you to stream movies, or if you must, check emails or work remotely. Grab a book and hang in the hammock under the willow tree, and let the sound of the river gently lull you into a nap. Enjoy a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage on our deck overlooking the river. When evening comes, build a fire in the fire pit and make a few s'mores. If you're lucky, you may spot fireflies in late June or July. Deer, bunnies, birds, abound if you are quiet and observant.
When you are ready for activity, bring your own kayaks or tubes and go for a float. For a small fee, a neighbor will transport you and your vessels up or downstream. Traverse City offers many beautiful hiking trails and we are a 1/4 mile from the Boardman River Trail where you can and enjoy a hike along the river. We are eight miles from Downtown Traverse City where you can enjoy shopping, excellent restaurants, beaches, or wineries out the Old Mission Peninsula. Leelanau County is one of our favorite places to enjoy the beaches and go for hikes.
This cabin has been in our family for three generations and we have made many wonderful memories here over the years. While it is rustic, it is clean and updated with new mattresses, sheets, linens, towels, and a stove. We hope that you and your family or friends can relax, recharge, and make some special memories of your own. Parties, additional guests, and smoking and vaping is prohibited.
We will provide:
* Sheets
* Towels
* WiFi
* Hand soap, dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash
* Paper towel, toilet paper, cleaning supplies
* Coffee, tea, sugar and filters
* A variety of boardgames, cards, books, yard games
You Bring:

* Firewood
* Charcoal
* Fun

This cozy cabin in the Traverse City area was perfect for our family! Beautifully decorated, comfortable beds, and a peaceful setting on the banks of the Boardman River. The cabin was clean and well-equipped, and the location made it easy to explore downtown, hiking, and beaches.Our hosts really made us feel like we were welcomed guests in their family cabin. We loved every minute and plan to stay again.

Such a cute and quaint cabin. It was absolutely perfect for me and my husband. The fresh flowers, cheese tray and fresh cherries left by Amy for us were a wonderful addition. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking in or around Traverse City.

This cabin was clean and well-equipped. Amy added several welcoming touches that made us feel right at home. Location is excellent and Amy checked in with us mid-stay to see if we needed anything.

Host was awesome! Good communication and some ‘extras’ like flowers and ice cream. The cabin was not as clean as expected. There were lots of cobwebs and the bathroom needs an update. If you are at all tall, beware of the low door frames! This is definitely a CABIN but overall comfy. Comfortable couch and one of the most comfortable beds-great linens. Loved the location and the beautiful river.
