About this property

Lake Superior Lodge w/Private Lakefront Large Deck, Island Views, Pictured Rocks

Large Home on the shore of Lake Superior. Lodge has all amenities included. Huge 2nd level deck with patio furniture to relax and observe the lake. There is a very large yard and parking area. The Lodge has everything a normal house would have. Dishes, cookware, tableware, etc... There are 5 bedrooms, two with a King, two w/queens, and the 5th has twin full size bunk beds, sleeping a total of 12 guests. There are three full size bathrooms, 2nd level bathroom has a shower/Jacuzzi tub combo and the 1st level bathrooms have shower stalls. Included in your stay is a gas grill with propane, all bedding, towels and linens as well as a 55" Smart TV, WiFi and internet streaming service.

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore begins in Munising, which is only a 15 minute drive away and there are over a dozen waterfalls within a 30 mile radius of this home. The National Lakeshore provides days worth of outdoor activities and adventures. Nearby AuTrain Lake and AuTrain River provide a wonderful place to enjoy swimming, water sports, fishing or a relaxing paddle. The AuTrain River provides excellent swimming where it empties into Lake Superior, and kayaking as it winds 7+ miles through the Hiawatha National Forest. Kayak rentals are available, otherwise feel free to bring your own, there is plenty of space to park your boat, trailer or whatever you bring. If you are into fishing, Bass, Walleye or Pike are your most commonly fished in AuTrain Lake, and Trout and Salmon in Lake Superior. Kayaks are available for rent.

I have seen nearly everything in this area and am a great resource during your stay. I will meet with you after you arrive and give you advice about the area and things you can enjoy during your vacation.

Snowmobile Getaway

Great place on a Great Lake. Absolutely beautiful lake view. Was not bad getting to the trails from the cabin. Actually, a nice warm up run before the trails! We were a little hesitant on the parking situation with having big trailers. After we put on our big boy pants it was no problem at all. Might a been a little tricky if there would have been larger snowbanks. In the end, the place was great. Full filled our needs.

We had a very nice and relaxing time staying at this Vrbo. Love that there were five bedrooms and three bathrooms so each couple had their own. Nice kitchen and living room and laundry room also. The view from the large deck was amazing!!! We would definitely recommend staying there!

Waterfront Views and Dream Location

Our family/extended family consisting of 7 adults and 5 kids comfortably stayed at this perfect lake house for several nights. We were able to do numerous day trips for hiking, beach time, beer tasting, and much more. The house was as expected and we had everything we needed. Definitely recommend!

On the lake

We loved our stay at the blue lodge. Amazing view of Lake Superior. Could sit on that deck all day and watch the Lake. Nice grassy area for kids to play, and the sandy beaches in Au Train are amazing. House is very comfortable,kitchen well equipped, comfortable beds. The stairs were a little scary with a toddler who doesn’t know he’s a toddler, and the water in showers had a strange odor. And the pics showed the stairs so just need to be careful. Thankyou! Hope to come again

Quiet and peaceful

The view of Lake Superior was amazing but the deck was in serious need of power washing. The ceiling fan had large chunks of dust hanging off of them. The kitchen sink while clean had stains so it didn’t appear clean. Updates need to be done

Family Holiday

Four generations enjoyed this beautiful location for an unseasonably warm early March weekend. Plenty of room to make memories and still have your own space to breathe. Open floor plan was perfect for cooking, eating and playing games together without being too crowded. The view of the lake is phenomenal. The location is close to plenty of outdoor activities for the entire family.

Great Place For A Family Vacation

Amazing property! The views of Lake Superior never get old. We had 9 people (6 adults, 2 children, and 1 toddler) and a dog, and we never felt cramped. The balcony was wonderful and we spent a lot of time hanging out there. Would recommend this property to anyone!

Plan on renting again!

Every member of our group was in awe of the location & the view! Even with a house relatively close there was the feeling of complete seclusion. No white noise needed on first two nights as the sound of waves against the shore was all we needed. Slept with windows open all 5 nights! Launched our own kayaks from shore & paddled to nearby (2+ mi) Au Train Island. Launching from rocks was a bit tricky and could only be done when the water was calm. Will definitely plan on going back. Only 4 stars because things just werent as nice & supplied as we are used to at other short-term rentals. Gary

About the host

Hosted by Cory Cole

Host profile image
Plain and simply, I am a Yooper. I live locally year round and am a wealth of knowledge when it comes to exploring our area. I graduated high school and college here and I am an avid outdoors-man, I camp, hike, bike, kayak, ski, snowshoe, ATV, motorcycle, snowmobile and Jeep nearly the entire U.P. and if you have heard of it, chances are I've been there, or done that. I also know some places 'slightly off the radar' if you are looking to get away from the tourist areas. Just ask, I'll be happy to give you advice.

Why they chose this property

I was a transplant to this area during high school years ago and left then came back. I couldn't stay away forever, this area is unlike any other. Sure there are beautiful places all over the country, but no matter where you are from, this place is special beyond words... My family and I moved here in 1995 and my mother lives here to this day. She is renting it for the summer months and will move back in during the Fall. I own/manage 9 other properties here in AuTrain and have done so since 2009. Since that time, I have been providing people a great place to stay, and the opportunity to enjoy our beautiful area.

What makes this property unique

It is on the shores of Lake Superior. 3 miles away is one of the best beaches in all of Michigan, and 15 minutes away is Pictured Rocks, dozens of waterfalls, hundreds of miles of hiking trails, biking trails and ATV/snowmobiling trails.
