The Lodge: Our Northern Knotty

Originally built in 1995, this A-frame lodge was once a rustic hunting and fishing cabin. This peaceful cabin sits amongst 5 acres of beautiful maple trees.

It lived many years as a seasonal property before evolving into what you see today. Once named The Dancing Maple, we purchased this property in 2024 with a goal of preserving the years of hard work it took to create this relaxing escape for guests. While it was a difficult decision, we ultimately decided to re-name the cabin as a testament to it’s new chapter with us. What drew us to this property

was the quaint Northern Michigan location and the knotty pine interior. There is something welcoming and relaxing about a peaceful, rustic-feeling retreat in the woods. This is how The Lodge: Our Northern Knotty was born.

We have made a few fun changes in the bunk room! We painted two accent walls and re-decorated. What do you think? 😍
Check out the fun throw blankets as well ~ my mom made those and matching brown throw pillows!
