Rapid River House | UP Riverfront Cabin with rustic charm & modern amenities. Great for families!

4 Bedroom House in Rapid River

Let your cares wash away at our private family retreat on the banks of the Rapid River. Whether your watching the kids catch crayfish, playing yard games or enjoying your favorite beverage next to a riverside bonfire at sunset, let our family retreat be your home away for your next UP vacation. Not the right weather to be outside? Grab your beverage and a blanket and cozy up inside to play cribbage while watching the flames flicker in the pellet stove. This place has something for everyone!
Your choice of activities is endless depending on the season. Immediately around the cabin is hiking, Rapid River Cross Country Trails for skiing/snowshoeing, waterfalls to explore, bird hunting, and ORV/snowmobile trails. Driving south 5 minutes gets you to the shores of Little Bay de Noc for fantastic fishing and beaches. Driving northeast 30 minutes gets you to the shores of Lake Superior in the town of Munising, where the sights and activities of Pictured Rocks greets you. The abundance and access to waterfalls both in the summer and winter is fantastic. Don't forget about the ice fishing! I could go on but you get the point! A short 5 minute drive into the local town of Rapid River offers you your basic convinces like restaurants, bars, gas, and basic grocery. A 20 minute drive takes you into Escanaba for anything you could want, from downtown shopping to modern name brand stores.
The cabin is nicely equipped with all of the conveniences you would expect at home. From a fully stocked kitchen to sheets on the bed and fresh towels in the bathroom. Even a washer and dryer is there for your use! Also included is a 36" blackstone griddle and a pellet grill/smoker for those tasty homemade meals. You enter the cabin into a mudroom that is perfect for storing your extra gear and overstock. The mudroom stores the grill and smoker as well as an extra fridge. It is heated separately by an electric baseboard heater giving you a great place to dry your outdoor gear. The yard is very spacious with outside lighting for after hours games. The firepit can be moved around and all firewood is included, but please be respectful on the amount you use. The cabin is constantly undergoing updates and improvements as it is our personal family getaway.
The cabin has four bedrooms with the back two bedrooms accessed from the front ones. One bedroom has two sets of bunk beds, and the other two bedrooms have a pair of single twins. Enough beds for 9/10 people or two separate families! There is one full bath with a spacious shower and a second toilet in the mechanical room.
The outside of the cabin may look modern with siding and a metal roof, but the cabin walls are covered in knotty pine and rustic decor, and the inside is full of years of memories. Come make some of your own!
