Welcome to 'The Log Cab-Inn' - Where Great Memories Are Made

We are a destination spot for snowmobiling, skiing, snowshoeing, four-wheeling, hiking, biking, and year-round vacations. This evergreen retreat is a new (2007) handcrafted log cabin, with three floors and three wrap around outside decks. There's a large mud room with in floor heat to dry out all your outdoor gear. The Cabin is located on 15 acres, with plenty of parking room. It backs up to an all purpose trail (North Freda, Trail #121-ATV/snowmobile trail.)

Were only 5 miles outside of Houghton MI, off of a blacktop road, but this is where the blacktop ends. There are only woods & rivers for eight miles until you reach Lake Superior. This setting will let you enjoy the outdoors right out of your door.

Call or e-mail for more details or visit our website. From there you can check out what our area has to offer. The National Weather Channel rates the Upper Peninsula of Michigan as No. 6 in its top-10 list of Winter Family Get-ways.

A great location to visit our son who lives in Hancock. Easy to get to Walmart for shopping. Can walk on nearby trails close to cabin and feel totally lost in nature. Beautiful surroundings. Love bringing our little dog too.

Atlantic Mine Log Cabin
The cabin was a great place to stay! Very cute and cozy. They do a great job of cleaning and provide a ton of towels and linens. The only issues we ran into were with the wifi being slow (the owner said it’s not normally that slow, but even after resetting it it still was pointless to be connected to) and there were a lot of wasps flying around the porch. Everything was great outside of that. Thanks for sharing your place!

Family time
We had a wonderful time at the cabinn. This place is amazing. My husband and son enjoyed all the special details and the craftsmanship. The wrap around porch is fantastic! The privacy is fantastic too. The shower and sauna are wonderful features of the basement bathroom. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals. Privacy, but close to town. Our dogs loved it as well. We would love to see what it’s like in the winter months. Thank you for sharing your awesome cabinn with the world.

Felt right at home, it was easy to find, there’s plenty of privacy, the place was comfortable and accommodating. It was close to town without actually being in town. I think it was a fantastic option.

Great Place!
The property is very clean, and well appointed. Beautiful wrap around deck! One bedroom and bath w/ sauna in the walkout basement. The main floor is the kitchen, living area, and another bathroom. The upstairs is a loft, with 2 bunk beds- both have full size bottom bed. We really enjoyed it! Lots of U.P. charm!

Cozy and private
We stayed in mid May, 2024, guests were myself, my wife, and our dog. This cabin was fantastic for our trip to the Keweenaw peninsula. It feels very private, you have tons of space, the property is gorgeous, and it's an easy drive into town for meals in the evening or supplies. The sauna was a particular treat! We really enjoyed staying here and would absolutely stay again if we're ever back in the area!

3rd Stay. Won’t be our last
We regularly visit Houghton area because our daughter was attending Michigan Tech. We love the privacy of the property, yet it is close to everything. Sauna is a huge plus. We love the fact that we can bring our four legged family member. Hosts are excellent and respond quickly to any questions.

Great cabin for our family!
Came up as a family of 5 to visit our student at Michigan Tech for Easter weekend. All 6 of us slept comfortably in the house. Plenty of room, enough bathrooms for us all to get ready. Kitchen had all tools we needed to cook for the weekend. Our kids asked us to rebook this house when we come back up for a longer trip up north. Favorite VRBO house in the area so far. Thank you!

Cozy cabin in the center of all things Western UP
From the Porkies to the tip of the Keewenaw, the location was perfect. Loved the cozy log cabin feel and the “woodsy” decor! Plenty of room for sleeping and very private setting. The second shower in the sauna downstairs was awesome. All the necessities we appreciated like comfy furniture and extra throws to snuggle up with after a long day of hiking and sightseeing. Basically, if you appreciate the outdoors, you’ll love this place. We sure did.

My husband, 2 dogs, and his Mom stayed 5 nights here. We loved the privacy and secluded feel to the property. Very clean and comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked except for baggies, plastic wrap etc. We wouldn't change a thing. Very thoughtfully decorated and designed. Highly recommend!
