Grand Traverse County Cabin in the Woods-WINTER WONDERLAND-Close to VASA trail

SKI-SNOWMOBILE-SNOW SHOE-LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL SNOW TO ENJOY!!

Enjoy this cozy cabin in the woods. Nestled in the red pines just minutes from Traverse City. Appreciate all that the seasons have to offer with family and friends. Relax by the outdoor fire pit or enjoy the beautiful lakes nearby. The Northern Michigan night sky offers an amazing view of the Milky Way and even an occasional display of the Northern Lights. Unplug and enjoy the woodlands and when you want to reconnect with the outside world there is wireless internet and a 60" tv, or take time for a game of shuffleboard. Freestanding fireplace gives a relaxing glow while watching the beautiful sunsets. One mile to ORV, snowmobile and equestrian trails. Close to the TART biking and hiking trails, 18 hole disk golf course, lakes, casinos, wineries and shopping. Pets are welcome for a small additional fee.

Perfect northern MI lodge!
We love the Hodge Lodge! Such a cool place with friendly hosts. It is a renovated barn/garage and is perfect for a family getaway. Very clean and awesome for pets and people of all ages. We loved the property and enjoyed the firepit and the porch swing! Awesome location outside Traverse City and the local lakes.

Cozy stay in the north woods
Lovely visit - cabin was comfortable, cozy and and ideal for unwinding in front of the gas stove inside, porch swing or outdoor fire pit. Wildlife was special and the location get remote although it is close to Traverse City.

Our hosts thought of everything. Fire ready to start, marshmallows ready to roast and a porch swing over looking pines. Beds were comfy, sheets and towels feel brand new. The only thing we wished for was better weather! Hope to be back soon.

Hodge Lodge is a Gem!
We were very pleased with the hospitality provided to us during our stay. Close enough to get to TC, but far enough out to enjoy the country setting. Wayne was an amazing host and our son loved riding the tractor. Pet friendly and a well maintained property - hope to return!
