Lake Superior Vacation Home near Pictured Rocks view of AuTrain and Grand Island

Make your Lake Superior experience memorable. As you walk to the front door you will be greeted by a view of the lake. Opening the front door invites you to the wall of windows overlooking the lake, AuTrain Island, and Grand Island. Complementary snacks will be awaiting you after your day of travel. With over 3,000 square feet of space, this home offers intimate spaces yet also accommodates up to 14 guests. The fully stocked kitchen and living space overlooks the lake and has plenty of seating for everyone. WiFi is included and each room has a smart TV with internet streaming services.

Three separate suites await you. The main floor suite, the Sunrise Suite, has an attached bath that includes a shower, 2 sinks and a walk-in closet. The cozy bedroom boasts a king-sized bed on a hickory log frame and pine flooring from the local Trenary mill. It offers AMAZING views of the sun rising over the lake. There is also an attached 3-season porch perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or a glass of wine.

The second suite, the Eagle’s Nest is located upstairs. It has 3 skylights offering lots of natural light, and overlooks the great room and the lake. The queen bed frame was made by a local artisan. It has an adjacent bath with both a tub and shower. Just past the bath is a log bunk and futon, as well as the loft living area (futon is comparable in size to a double bed and the top bunk is a twin size bed), including an attached deck with a bistro table and chairs - another amazing place to begin or end your day!

The third suite, the Bear’s Lair is located downstairs in the lower level. It offers a cozy, rustic feel, with a king sized bed on a bed platform made from local cedar rounds. It has an attached bath that includes a shower and double sinks. The bedroom also attaches via a barn door to the lower level living space that includes a double bunk bed, and a foosball table.

Last but certainly not least, the large back deck, accessed both from the living room and the Sunrise Suite porch, is only 25 feet from the water. and overlooks one of the two fire pits. A picture perfect place to hang out and enjoy the scenery and the good company.

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore begins in Munising, which is only a 15 minute drive from this home, and there are over a dozen waterfalls within a 30 mile radius. The National Lakeshore, as well as the Hiawatha National Forest provide days of outdoor activities and adventures. Hiking, picnicking, ATVing, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, camping, mountain biking, and fishing are all at your fingertips. In the winter, snowmobiling, skiing, ice fishing, snow shoeing, and ice climbing are all available. Nearby AuTrain Lake and the AuTrain River provide wonderful opportunities for swimming, water sports, fishing, or a relaxing paddle. If you are into fishing, bass, walleye, and pike are most commonly fished in AuTrain Lake, and trout and salmon are most commonly fished in Lake Superior. Kayak rentals and guided tours are available locally, as are pontoon boat rentals, boat tours, charter fishing trips, and ATV rentals. If you have your own equipment feel free to bring it as there is plenty of room at this home to park your boat, trailer or whatever you bring.

The property manager Cory is a "True Yooper". He is available to meet with you after your arrival to answer any questions you might have, and is available by phone at anytime during your stay to help you make the most of your time in the UP. There are also many maps and brochures available in the home to help you choose from the many activities near the home.

A Perfect Getaway with Stunning Lake Superior Views!
We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful VRBO in Au Train! The view of Lake Superior is absolutely breathtaking—waking up to the stunning sunrises over the water was one of the many highlights of our trip. Every morning felt magical as we sipped on coffee and watched the sky turn an array of stunning colors before giving way to the sun dancing across the lake. The house itself is stocked with literally everything you could ever need, from kitchen essentials to entertainment options. It’s clear the hosts have thought of everything to make guests feel right at home. We were able to cook meals easily, enjoy coffee on the deck, and relax without missing a single thing. The location is fantastic—quiet and serene but still close to plenty of local attractions and amenities. Whether you’re exploring nearby hiking trails, visiting Pictured Rocks, or just relaxing by the lake, this home offers the perfect base for it all. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with a view that can’t be beat, I highly recommend staying here. We cannot wait to come back!

Superior Stay
Superior Sunrise is amazing. The house was very clean, with many amenities and plenty of room for our party. The house itself is wonderful, however the deck and fire pit area are simply fantastic. We did not need to visit any scenic views of the lake, as we all agreed we had the best view right from the property! The house was nice and private, but still close to Munising for supplies, restaurants, and souvenir shopping. We did a little sightseeing, but mainly spent time visiting with family and enjoying the sounds and view of the lake. We spent our evenings around the fire pit, and the stargazing was incredible! One of the reasons we chose this area for our trip was a hope to see the Northern Lights. And on our last night, mission accomplished! The perfect ending to a perfect trip! We will be back!

Superior Sunrise
This is the best place we have stayed at in the UP and top 5 of all time. The views are spectacular, as you look north upon 10% of the world's fresh water you will be struck by the best sunrise you have ever seen. The bedrooms are very nice up stairs has its own deck. Kitchen and dinning room are excellent for large groups. It has a nice garage that you can use. Munising is 15 minutes away, grocery store is good, restaurants are there. Pictured rocks is a little past Munising plan on spending time there it is amazing. Thanks to all we will be back.

The sunrises were spectacular. We had an eagle fly in every morning to watch the sunrise with us. The outside space is wonderful with plenty of room for all guests. The kitchen and great room was perfect for all of us to gather. We enjoyed the area. Kayak Pictured Rocks, hike as well, kayak the au train river .... it was all great.

Return to the UP
We loved our stay in this home!! 9 adults and one infant had plenty of space in this well appointed house in the perfect location. Paddles from the backyard, fires in the evening and the most beautiful sunrises for the early birds. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay and the kitchen is especially well stocked with anything you could want/need. It’s also the little things that made this house so special, dog bowls for our pups that traveled with us, USB charging towers on each side of the beds are just a couple of things that impressed. This has been the perfect place for our family to get back to the area where we spent many summers. We will definitely be back!!

Beautiful Lake Superior view
We had 8 adults and 4 children ages 5-8. Enough room to spread out. Open concept and loft overlooking the living room/kitchen area made it a little noisy with kids playing, but easy to keep an eye on what they were up to. Weather was cold and rainy; we stayed inside and played games. Able to enjoy a couple bonfires and a few beautiful sunsets. Very enjoyable stay in a well-appointed, modern home!
