Excellent stay
The property was everything we were looking for with our young family. Kyaks and bikes on site were a bonus to take out daily. Location was close to everything we needed yet tucked away so we felt secluded. Would definitely stay here again!

Great for Families
Our family enjoyed a quick stay at the cabin! It was a great landing spot to explore Pictured Rocks. The kids loved being able to canoe right from the backyard, and there was plenty of space for them to run around outside.

Very Nice
The cabin was very nice. I do have one concern. When I opened the shower, there was a dirty, very hard white wash cloth on the floor. I removed it and put it in the hamper. Overall, the cabin was very clean. Thank you!

Weekend Stay
Cabin and surrounding property was clean. We had an issue with fruit flies as soon as we walked in, but after a day we were able to get them under control with a homemade trap. Property had a wonderful view of the water and the location was quiet. It was nice having a canoe available free of charge. We did contact owners about the fruit flies and they responded quickly stating they were already aware of the problem Overall, it was a nice weekend and we would stay again.

Great getaway
We have stayed with Matt and Holly many times in their UP properties. They communicate well and quickly, and everything always runs smoothly. Au Train is a beautiful area that is really quiet. This is always a pleasant surprise for a place of such beauty. The beach at Au Train, all of the waterfalls, Presque Isle -- lots to do and see if you like the outdoors. Highly recommend the area, and staying with them.

Great river location
Stayed with some friends for fishing. It was great that we could put in canoes at the lake and take them right to the cabin doorsteps. Everything was clean and maintained. Easy check-in and out. Fast wi-if if needed. The corner store down the street comes in handy for last minute things.

Family Stay in Au Train
The Reel Inn cabin was a perfect base for exploring the area around Munising. Our family of four stayed in the cabin for several days. Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Grand Isle boat tours and Marquette are an easy drive away. We walked to Au Train beach in the evenings and used the on-site kayaks to paddle the river on our down day. The cabin is comfortable and well equipped. Matt was very responsive to all of our requests/questions. A great option if visiting the area.

Kayaking at the national lakeshore
We enjoyed our stay here. Cabin was well furnished and clean. Very close to Munising and launching point for our tour of the National Lakeshore. Grocery close as well. We loved being able to walk to the beautiful beach on Lake Superior. We also used the provided canoe and paddled out to the mouth of the Au Train river. The neighborhood is nice and neighbors were thoughtful and quiet. Communication with the hosts was excellent and they were very accommodating as well as provided great information concerning kayaking in the national lakeshore.

Perfect Escape!
We live in Chicago and the UP is one of our favorite destinations to get away from it all. There were four of us in our party and the home was more than adequate for us. The beds were super comfy and the cabin had all the comforts of home. The location right on the river was beautiful and very picturesque. We used the outdoor fire pit on the chilly nights. It was convenient to get to Marquette and Munising where we took the boat trip of the Pictured Rocks. Simply breathtaking! We will definitely be back.

Excellent Riverside cabin!
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Reel inn Cabin! We enjoyed fires in the riverfront fire pit and canoeing on the Au Train River. It was easy to explore Munissing and the Pictured Rocks National Seashore from this location. The cabin itself was very clean and felt more spacious than it looked in pictures. The kitchen was well equipped and we made use of the grill as well. We opted to drink bottled water because of the hardness of the water. We learned we had to be careful on the loft stairs which were a bit slick when wearing socks. Overall it was a wonderful stay in very peaceful location. We would definitely go back!
