Property Description
Enjoy the peace and quiet of life on the Betsie River from this cozy Northern Michigan cabin. Set on over two wooded acres with approximately 200 feet of private Betsie River frontage, this property offers the kind of setting buyers look for when they want to truly get away. Start your mornings with coffee on the covered porch overlooking the woods, spend your days fishing, kayaking, or relaxing from the dock at the river's edge, and end the evening around the campfire after a day in Northern Michigan. Inside, the cabin offers a comfortable layout with a main floor bedroom and full bath, plus two additional bedrooms and a second full bath upstairs. The Betsie River is protected under Michigan's Natural Rivers Act, helping preserve the natural, private, and scenic character that makes this stretch of river so special. Located close to the coastal town of Frankfort, Lake Michigan, Crystal Mountain, trails, golf, skiing, and year-round recreation, this is your place to enjoy Pure Michigan in every season. The home has also been a successful summer short-term rental managed by Vacasa. All personal property currently on site is available to purchase as a package
