Freighter Cabin

We always enjoy our yearly stay at the Freighter Cabin! This year we saw about 23 big freighters passing by so close! The comfy atmosphere in the cabin is relaxing and we always hate to leave! Took a few drives to see fall colors, went to Mackinac Island one day, visited a few UP breweries! Pure Michigan we love it!

Will be back!

Absolutely love watching the freighters, tugboats and even a great lakes cruise ship on this visit. Had an issue with the tv.... but not a deal breaker for us. I think it was a remote issue. Property owner tried very hard to fix the problem. No doubt in my mind that we'll be back in the future.
