Summary: I can’t say enough nice things about our stay at Camp Thunderbuck! We especially appreciated being able to use the fishing boat, kayaks, paddle boards, and paddle boat. The lake is shallow in front of the house and perfect for the kids to play in that crystal clear water. The house was clean and comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. Fishing was good for panfish. We also caught several small pike and one pretty nice one. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was immaculate and included all the conveniences of home. The property is so beautiful. We took advantage of the kayaks, fishing boat, and SUP daily. During our stay, we did a lot of exploring in the area and it was nice to come back to somewhere so comfortable and relaxing. We stayed for six nights and didn’t want to leave! Jessie is a wonderful host.

Summary: The views at this property are stunning. You can see the lake from every room. There is easy access for kayaking and a fantastic great room and back porch for relaxing and enjoying the views. The property is remote, however, neighbors are close. Families can be heard across the lake and occasionally neighbors play music. Mostly, it’s quiet and peaceful. The bathroom in the house is updated. The master bedroom has an extremely comfortable bed. The kitchen is outdated and a bit confusing to navigate. The dining room table is large and you have views of the lake. It takes about 10 minutes on gravel roads to get to a paved road. Grocery stores and gas stations are about a 1/2 hour from there. You are mostly coming to stay and enjoy the property unless you don’t mind driving. Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is about an hour north, but a very enjoyable drive. Big Springs is nearby and absolutely gorgeous! Don’t miss this, but go in the morning to miss the crowds. Also, Fayetteville Historic Park is really worth the hour drive, if you enjoy history. We enjoyed our visit and would stay at this property again.

Summary: Property is very remote. We were able to manage cell phone access but it is sketchy in places. Overall, if your looking for a little peace and quiet it is a great place for that.
Matthew R. Jul 3, 2023 11:01:01 AM
Summary: Nice, clean cabin on a secluded lake. Paddle boat, paddle boards, kayaks, and small fishing boat included. Great place to stay. Owners are quick to respond to any questions.
Mark S. Sep 9, 2022 11:00:53 AM
Summary: The rental process was smooth. The property has a great view with plenty of amenities for enjoying the lake. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.
Kevin M. Aug 8, 2021 11:00:42 AM
Summary: Amazing location, and property but place needs a deep clean. Screens need replacement. The beds that had clean sheets worked out really well for our stay. Very comfortable. Air freshener was overpowering at first entry, but once aired out was fine. Back door slider didn't lock. Kids had a blast on lake, such an amazing spot. This could easily be a 5 star listing with a little work.
Elizabeth P. Jul 21, 2021 02:01:20 PM
Summary: Beautiful lake and lovely home, quiet peaceful place to fish, paddle board and kayak. We had a great stay!

Summary: What a great week. There were a couple small “deltas”. The outside of the cabin and the yard are under maintained. Mossy, many spider webs. It took about a day to clean the deck, deck furniture, grill and spray the yard for ants. It Michigan, so mostly sand and a prime place for ants. The back yard was badly infested with ant hills. There would have been no way to be out there without spraying the yard first. Onto the great! They provide kayaks, and a small fishing boat to use. Corhole game. The small dock was great to fish from. Lots of space inside and a large deck. The lake was great for fishing and the kids swam every day. They caught frogs, turtles and crayfish when they weren’t fishing and swimming. It’s about an hour drive from anywhere, and right at the end of a road, so very quiet and somewhat secluded. It’s DSL internet but still worked surprisingly well for all four of us each with devices, even when streaming. Verizon worked decently right at the cabin and just outside. The living room gave great views of the lake. It was so nice to wake up and sit in the living room every morning with coffe and enjoy that view. If we visit the UP again I will be checking to see if this place is available.

Summary: My family and I absolutely loved staying at this cabin!! It was very clean and comfortable with more than enough room for the 8 of us. The lake was beautiful and we spent a great deal of time swimming and using the kayaks and paddle board. The kids loved fishing right off the dock and ended up catching quite a few fish! This is honestly the best cabin we've ever stayed at and can't wait to go back next summer!!
