About this cabin rental
Come rest, relax, and enjoy the sounds and sights of the Boardman River in our cozy, rustic 800 square foot cabin. Bedroom one has a queen size bed, while bedroom two offers a double bed and a twin bed. Cook meals in our efficient kitchen, or grill on the charcoal grill. Our large comfortable sofa beckons you to relax, read a book, watch birds at the feeder, or view kayakers as they paddle down the river. Free WiFi allows you to stream movies, or if you must, check emails or work remotely. Grab a book and hang in the hammock under the willow tree, and let the sound of the river gently lull you into a nap. Enjoy a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage on our deck overlooking the river. When evening comes, build a fire in the fire pit and make a few s'mores. If you're lucky, you may spot fireflies in late June or July. Deer, bunnies, birds, abound if you are quiet and observant.
When you are ready for activity, bring your own kayaks or tubes and go for a float. For a small fee, a neighbor will transport you and your vessels up or downstream. Traverse City offers many beautiful hiking trails and we are a 1/4 mile from the Boardman River Trail where you can and enjoy a hike along the river. We are eight miles from Downtown Traverse City where you can enjoy shopping, excellent restaurants, beaches, or wineries out the Old Mission Peninsula. Leelanau County is one of our favorite places to enjoy the beaches and go for hikes.
This cabin has been in our family for three generations and we have made many wonderful memories here over the years. While it is rustic, it is clean and updated with new mattresses, sheets, linens, towels, and a stove. We hope that you and your family or friends can relax, recharge, and make some special memories of your own. Parties, additional guests, and smoking and vaping is prohibited.
We will provide:
* Sheets
* Towels
* WiFi
* Hand soap, dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash
* Paper towel, toilet paper, cleaning supplies
* Coffee, tea, sugar and filters
* A variety of boardgames, cards, books, yard games
You Bring:
* Beach Towels
* Firewood
* Charcoal
* Fun

This cabin was clean and well-equipped. Amy added several welcoming touches that made us feel right at home. Location is excellent and Amy checked in with us mid-stay to see if we needed anything.

Host was awesome! Good communication and some ‘extras’ like flowers and ice cream. The cabin was not as clean as expected. There were lots of cobwebs and the bathroom needs an update. If you are at all tall, beware of the low door frames! This is definitely a CABIN but overall comfy. Comfortable couch and one of the most comfortable beds-great linens. Loved the location and the beautiful river.

Host was best I’ve had on any VDBO I’ve rented.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Our stay was such a peaceful experience that was conveniently located to amenities. The river was so close to the house and made our stay beyond worth it! Pros: location in relation to Traverse City, private river with ample seating to enjoy, large windows to view outdoors, very comfortable beds and bedding, lots of games and activities, the host bought my son and balloon and gift for our weekend stay celebrating his birthday! Cons: could hear road traffic throughout the property, my partner got stung by a Yellowjacket bee that came from a ground nest of Yellowjackets in the upper level of the yard, not the owners fault at all but: the bird feeder broke our first night and we couldn’t bird watch like we were hoping to. Overall we would love to come back for a longer stay so we can just sit by the river and relax rather than leaving to do so many local activities.
