Bear Den-Secluded 2 Bedroom Cabin Located in the Hiawatha National Forest.

Welcome to the middle of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Hiawatha National Forest. This newly remodeled cabin can sleep 5 comfortably with two bedrooms; one with a queen bed, the other a bunk with full and twin size beds, one full bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen to start your day off with a coffee and make any meal of the day, as well as a living room complete with a working fireplace and television with dvd player. Behind the home you will find a firepit and a picnic table, roast marshmallows and enjoy the view of the lake. In front of the home there is a standing charcoal grill for guests to use. This cabin is located between Munising and Grand Marais on the scenic drive of H-58 along the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore as well as being located on the ATV and Snowmobile Trails so you can leave right from the cabin. No large trailer parking available. Hike around and see the sites all day then come home to your own cabin in the woods where you can grill out on the deck overlooking the lake and roast marshmallows over the bonfire listening to the loons at night. Please note **This cabin is located in the Hiawatha National Forest, in the woods, where there are animals and critters. You may see a mouse or a spider in the cabin during your stay. We do everything we can to disinfect, clean and prevent any critters from accessing the cabin. However, we cannot guarantee Mickey Mouse won't peak around the corner and say hello. Also, a new water filtration system has been installed. It reprograms/flushes every 500 gallons which can be very loud and disturbing for about an hour.

***There is a doorbell camera mounted at the entryway outside.

***Door code will be released the day of check-in for security purposes.

***If you are booking through Airbnb or VRBO you will receive a separate contract from Pictured Rocks Vacation Rentals. In order to receive check-in information you will be required to sign this.

Wilderness Retreat
We were looking for a place to get away from it all and Bears Den was it. Property manager Sabrina made us very comfortable with check in, check out, and any questions we had along the way. We really appreciated the purified water dispenser as the well water in this region is very heavy in iron

Outstanding modernized cabin deep the forest. Full kitchen with gas stove, toaster, microwave and large-capacity coffeemaker. Main heat source is the gas fireplace, which quickly warms the living area. Bed was outstanding. Amply provided with towels and washcloths. Despite its fairly isolated location is easy to find and only a mile from the main road (H58). You're in the wilds here, and the stars are bright at night. Highly recommended.

Nice cabin
Check in was a breeze and we were impressed with the cleanliness of the unit and the view of the lake. The cabin is in an awesome location. However, the map listed on VRBO did not match the location that we ended up at. It was still a nice area but it was on a different lake than what showed up on the map. We were also given written directions to the cabin as the address provided wouldn’t even lead you to the correct place. This was not a huge deal but it would be nice to have an accurate location and an address you can actually follow to the cabin.

I stayed around 10-20-22 for my boyfriend's birthday. Everything about the cabin is perfect, especially in the fall weather. I just wish it had been made more clear to not just enter the address in GPS. I found that info after searching through every nook and cranny on the VRBO app, at least a day after getting there. So, we found the cabin the hard way but it was well worth it. VRBO is a relatively new app so it can be hard to navigate and that information is very, very important.

Snowmobile vacation
The home was very clean and well put together. I loved that the fireplace was already going so the house was nice and warm when we arrived. We came for a snowmobile vacation with our kids. It was nice to come back to a warm comfy cabin after riding all day. Our only issue was that we did not consider that not all the roads are plowed. So what we thought was an 18 mile drive to Grand Marais was much longer. But that's our fault for not checking. We loved the cabin and appreciate you having us!

Framily Reunion
Our chosen family planned a trip to the UP and had the great pleasure of staying here two nights. It was secluded enough to feel like we were getting away from it all and yet 30 miles to town. We enjoyed a sunset cruise one night and a fire in the fire ring the other. We slept five comfortably. Wonderful memories. Thank you for hosting!

Crowds avoided, nice clean house with fire pit and basic cooking amenities for meal prep. By the campfire every night, we heard the call of the American Bittern in the marshy areas. We would definitely book this property again during the off season!

Cabin
Cabin was clean and communication with property manager was good. The only thing that occurred was the water pump went off in the middle Of the night and made horrible noises for hours. I had to go back and read through paperwork to read about how that might occur. In the middle of the night I had to text and email the property manager about that .. not fun . They did respond and said basically you have to wait .. ugh Not convenient but the horrible sounds did go away
