CUT RIVER CABIN AT HIGGINS LAKE
secluded spot in beautiful setting
Such a beautiful and special location! We came for a women's weekend and loved how secluded and private it was. 3 kayaks and many canoes available for use. You can walk, bike or canoe to hiking/biking trails at the state park. We took an afternoon canoe down to Marl Lake and saw no other people except at the place where the State Park trail comes out. I absolutely loved my time here and want to come back as much as possible! A couple things to note: Make sure to confirm the check in and check out times with Jeremey. We had a lot of confusion around this and hipcamp had an earlier check in and later check out listed than Jeremey expected. (He has it listed on VRBO differently.) The sauna is also not that well insulated, so it takes a lot of wood to keep warm! (which is provided, just know you will need to start it well in advance.) Kitchen has basics for 6 people, if you had more you would need to bring your own. Has some basic pots and pans that are all older. Nothing fancy. And we had to use mugs as bowls. Also, when we were there someone had blown the solar panel by using a hairdryer, so none of the outlets work. There was a generator for electricity, but we felt that ruined the peace and quiet so just made due with lanterns. I would recommend bringing extra battery powered lights. The cots in the loft do not have bedding, but all other beds have sheets and a comforter. I recommend bringing extra blankets in fall/winter. 3 rooms, 2 with full beds, one with 2 twins.

Nature & solitude
We had a wonderful weekend at Jeremy's Cut River Cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for. A perfect private Northern Michigan cabin nestled in the wood along a pristine river. We will definitely be back!

Canoe Heaven
Our weekend at the Cut River Cabin was truly amazing. Jeremy was incredibly helpful, and the cabin had everything we needed! Stove, grill, hand pump and sink for water, kerosene lamps, kitchen supplies, bedding, games, cots for the loft. The river was warm and so clear. Our favorite parts of staying there were canoeing up and down the river, fishing, bird watching, grilling, and spending time in the sauna. Absolutely recommend staying here, and I can’t wait to come back to experience this magical place in all four seasons.

Family of 5 and a pup
The location is just astoundingly beautiful, right on the river. We had plenty of canoes and accessories for our family of 5. The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed. Our pup had an amazing time as well and it was very cool that it’s pet friendly. We all absolutely loved our stay, didn’t want to leave!

We had a great time! The secluded, quaint cabin was just what we were looking for. The wood burning furnace was so cozy, and the sauna was perfect for warming up after exploring outside. There was plenty of wildlife as well - deer, eagles, swans, and we even heard some coyotes in the distance at night. It was a weekend adventure that we’re eager to repeat in warm weather, too! The river was crystal clear. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed as well, and Jeremey was friendly and made sure everything was going smoothly. Thanks for the great weekend!
