About

Experience the charm of our freshly renovated A-Frame nestled in the serene woods, just a short 10-minute drive from downtown Lake Ann and Interlochen. Across the street, you'll find public access to Bronson Lake, and down the road lies the Platte River, renowned for world-class fishing. If you crave the rustic allure of dirt roads and the tranquility of escaping the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect getaway for you!

Good to know

We dedicated over a year to meticulously renovating this A-Frame, revamping it from the ground up to create a comfortable haven for our guests. Mini-split heating and cooling systems ensure your year-round comfort. While our Wi-Fi isn't blazing fast, it's sufficient for streaming Netflix. The cabin accommodates up to four guests, with one bedroom featuring a king-size bed that does feature a TV and a sound machine and a loft boasting two cozy built-in twin beds that also features a sound machine. The space is rich with charming nooks and crannies, and thoughtfully adorned with tasteful decor. Step outside onto the expansive deck in the large outdoor space, complete with a firepit, hot tuband charcoal grill for relaxing evenings under the stars.

Other Details to Note

Parking is abundant in this woodsy neighborhood on a peaceful dirt road. Given our woodland setting, the occasional encounter with a stray bug is part of the rustic experience. If you're planning a winter stay, bear in mind that Northern Michigan is Old Man Winter's homeland. Roads can get slippery and may go unplowed, and events could be rescheduled or canceled. We strongly recommend arriving with a well-prepared vehicle equipped with all-wheel drive or snow tires. Please note that we have a Nest home doorbell/camera for added security during your stay.

My wife and I had a great stay at the A-Frame cabin. A very quiet and relaxing setting, and everything you needed was in the cabin. There were some thoughtful considerations that I thought made this place a better stay than a lot of the AirBnbs I've stayed in. Things like a box fan in the bedroom and yoga sleep sound machines (for those of us who like white noise to sleep) There were plenty of dishes and cooking utensils that were well organized and easy to find, a hair dryer in the bathroom, all the light switches were labelled to make it easier to remember which switch did what. It was all of those little touches that made this a seamless and comfortable place to stay.

The A-Frame is beautifully finished and very comfortable. Everything was very clean and operable. We enjoyed the hot tub, which was already set up and easy to open/close. After a couple days of exploring, we spent one day just relaxing at the cabin. It was so comfortable, we had no reason to leave.

We stayed at Carrie's A Frame for a weekend to celebrate my wife's birthday and it was a great time! The gone is in a quiet, private dirt road and the surroundings are beautiful. We greatly enjoyed doing many hikes in the area. Carrie was also very helpful and proactive sending all the instructions beforehand.
