The cabin was peaceful with a view of the river and just a few blocks from Lake Superior. We enjoyed walking to the ice cream shop near Lake Superior and walking around the neighborhood, as well as paddle boating and grilling at the cabin. The cabin was close to plenty of waterfalls, boat tours, hikes, and other activities so we could easily stop back between activities. The only part I didn't love was the floor didn't seem very insulated (it wasn't cold but sounded loud for walking and my kids are stompy in general). However, the sliding door was right there with convenient chairs to step outside and grab some peace when it got loud. It was a chillier and wet few days but we stayed toasty warm inside

This is a great hub for the many hiking trails nearby. Fresh Pasties are within walking distance at the nearby corner store, and an ice cream / souvenir shop is only a little further down the road. We chose a place on a river to launch kayaks from just to explore and take the winding trip to Lake Superior. The river in front of the Cabin is a dead end leg off the main river so you likely will not see a lot of river traffic. The lily pads and weeds may keep you from swimming in front of the cabin, but the river outlet at Lake Superior is a popular swimming spot with nice sandy beach.

This home was perfectly situated on the Au Train River and walking distance to Lake Superior! We kayaked, rode bikes, and enjoyed campfires by the water. The house is so close to Pictured Rocks attractions and local hiking. You really can’t get any better! The house itself is clean and cozy. I can only imagine fall or winter how nice it would be. Beds were super comfortable and we were very pleased with everything. If I had a complaint it would be that we didn’t stay longer. We hope to come back one day. Do not hesitate to book this if you are thinking about it. It was an amazing stay!

The cabin was a great base for Pictured Rocks and the surrounding area. We enjoyed having Au Train beach so close by. The area is picturesque and very peaceful.

Beautiful property right on the river. Enjoyed paddling to the beach, fantastic kitchen, patio and fire pit. Close proximity to local attractions, including 5 miles away from Grand Island Ferry (awesome day excursion!). Thank you for a wonderful accommodation!

Beautiful Modern Cabin on the Au Train River My family and I enjoyed staying at Reel Inn. The location is fantastic. We appreciate the canoe which we used to explore the river. Each evening after dinner we sat by the fire as the sun set.The modern cabin was clean with everything you’d need. Central air was appreciated! Clearly the owners put a lot of time into picking out the furnishings. The location was great — Au Train is one of the last small undeveloped beach towns in Michigan. The beach is beautiful — and huge.Lastly, it’s a short drive to Munising for your Pictured Rocks tour, groceries, etc. (Although I’d recommend stocking up at Meijer in Marquette first.)

We had an absolutely great time staying at the property. My parents stayed in the cabin. My sister and my family (3 adults, 4 kids) stayed in the larger lodge right next door. Location is on an off branch of the main river. 1 minute car ride, 5 minute bike ride, 30 minute canoe ride to beach. Beach is spectacular! Kids LOVED swimming in the lake and river. Property and interior were spotless. House has everything you need. Communication and check in was easy. Rental includes grill, bikes, and canoe. Kayaks were available to rent. Small grocery store, ice cream, and pasties in town 1/4 mile away. Munising 15 minute drive. Au Train falls 15 minute drive (highly recommend). Can’t say enough good things. We loved our stay!!

Hidden gem near Lake Superior! This was one of the best rentals we have had! The home was beautiful and very clean. We also appreciated how the home had everything we needed for our stay including clean linens and towels and paper products. We loved canoeing on the river every day and the short walk to Lake Superior was great. The neighborhood is also so peaceful. We will definitely be back!
