Further details for this vacation cabin rental in Indian River, Michigan

Inside Details: This is the perfect home for Northern Michigan enthusiasts looking to live large while on vacation Up North. Holidays, weekends, and weekly trips here will certainly be extra special with your family and friends! The home comes complete with oak hardwood flooring throughout and terra cotta tile in all the wet areas. It has custom-built cabinetry and stainless steel appliances in the chef’s kitchen and a BBQ deck and gas grill just off of the dining area. The main level also has a tidy living area with comfy seating and a 46” flat panel TV (complete with an Onkyo surround sound system) and a master bedroom with a private entrance to the deck overlooking the Sturgeon River and a queen-size Tempur-Pedic mattress for extra comfort . The upstairs is perfect for a couple and at least 4 kids; two in the smaller bedroom and two in the loft overlooking the great room. The upstairs master bedroom has gorgeous views of the Sturgeon River, vaulted ceilings.

Outside Details: Outside, between the home and the river, is a nice lawn to run around on with your dog and a beautiful stone enclosed bonfire pit with firewood and seating provided. Just outside of the walkout, finished lower level is a brick patio with a new hot tub for soaking in and relaxing. The home has landscape ground lighting all around the foundation so it is well lit at night while you’re enjoying the late night bonfires at the river. On the deck overlooking the Sturgeon River is a nice picnic table for relaxing, an outdoor dinning set, and a staircase that goes down to the lawn going to the river. In the front of the home is a smaller lawn and driveway as well as another vacant lot for exra parking space for your extra vehicles, boats, trailers, etc. Also in the front is another smaller deck with a gas grill just off of the indoor dining area.

Extra Features: My vacation cabin comes complete with two kayaks for my guests to use at no additional cost. Also, on the patio outside the finished, walkout lower level is nice new hot tub overlooking the large lawn and Sturgeon River. In addition, the finished lower level has a custom-built cedar suana! All three levels have full bathrooms, at least one bedroom with a queen-size mattress, and custom-made furnishings.

Ski: Boyne Mountain, Boyne Highlands, and Nubs Knob are all about 30 minute from the cabin!

Golf: All the major N. Michigan golf clubs are close by! Some of these clubs include Bay Harbor, Little Traverse Bay, The Crooked Tree, Treetops, Marsh Ridge, Otsego Club, Michaywe, Black Lake, True North, and of course, the Indian River Golf Club.

Other Activities: kayaking, snow boarding, snowmobiling, miniature golf

Awesome Cabin, Great Location, Very Helpful Owner!

osu buckeye girl Columbus, OH
Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our family really enjoyed staying at Doug's cabin! It was perfect. We really enjoyed all the fun things to do in the Indian River area. Some of us kayaked, some biked the trails (right close to the cabin), some played golf. The hot tub and sauna were super popular too; sat in both most every night. What was especially meaningful to us is how well-decorated the cabin is with very nice furnishings and all the space. Of course the bonfire pit near the river was relaxing for us, too. We all highly recommend this cabin. The owner was very good to work with as well. Plus we could bring our dogs at no additonal charge!

A perfect northern michigan retreat

The Gilly Group Trenton, MI / Southeastern Michigan / USA
Review Submitted: August 8, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our family enjoyed a beautiful, memorable week at the Sidell log home. This luxury log home home offers a great layout for a large group and lots of room for entertaining, plus many extras, such as a big screen TV, sound system, washer/dryer, gourmet kitchen and grill, hot tub, sauna and kayaks.

We enjoyed a wonderful family week of togetherness in our favorite area of northern Michigan with sightseeing, kayaking (we rented a couple extras to make 5!), fishing, river walking for Petoskey stones, nightly bonfires, biking (spectacular bike/snowmobile trail 50+ miles long!) and nearby beach at Burt Lake. Best of all, a relaxing week with something for everyone in first class comfort.

The location is great for easy access to all northern sites, easy drive to the UP, Tahquamenon Falls, Mackinac, Petoskey, etc. Beautiful luxury log home, very tastefully decorated with all the extra trimmings for entertaining. First class lodging offers an up north rustic touch of the northern woods. On the banks of the river's edge and flowing yard, the large, inviting firepit became a cozy family favorite evening tradition for roasting marshmallows, smores and grandpa's special campfire fruit pies and stargazing in the northern skies!

Thank you Doug for the great memories. With our kids and grandchildren spread out in other areas of the country now, we don't get together often enough and it was the perfect backdrop for making some special Michigan family memories with our grandchildren, and revisiting many great times of long ago vacations in northern Michigan (this time we left the tent at home!).

Our family thanks you for a great vacation! July 2009.
ps ... We'll be back!

Review Submitted: July 8, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
This rental was perfect for our families annual fishing trip.It was very clean and well appointed with nice hot tub and sauna. Enjoyed the large fire pit at the river bank for enening bonfires. Nice woodsy feel to the place yet only a short drive to great restaurants golf and great lake and stream fishing. I highly reccomend this rental. Ownner was very helpful.

I look forward to spending more time here...

Jeff S. Sterling Heights, MI
Review Submitted: June 10, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Having stayed in one of Doug's previous vacation cabins, the bar had been set high. Well now, it's even higher. This vacation cabin is great for enjoying a week away with a large group. Plenty of room. Great cabin feel blended with higher-end touches such as a home theater system, sauna, and hot tub. Plus, there was something for everyone to do. People went shopping in Petoskey, some kayaked, some hit the trails, etc.

My favorite though was spending time down by the Sturgeon River. I was by myself for two days before the rest of my group came up and that's where you most likely would've found me (I just wish I was better at Trout fishing that what I am). I look forward to spending more time here in the future!
