Bonfire Holler Cabin in the woods

Live your life by a compass not a clock. Find your way to Bonfire Holler where you can unplug and relax. Cozy cabin on 20 acres (occasional neighbor across the road) where you can enjoy snowmobiling in the Gaylord/Grayling area or ATV riding in the Frederic area. Only 10 mins from Hartwick Pines State Park with camping, hiking trails and cross country skiing. Or cross country skiing and snowshoeing just a couple miles away at Forbush Corner. 20 min drive from Treetops Resort in Gaylord.

There are two bedrooms upstairs, each with a queen bed. The living room on the main floor has a couch that folds flat for sleeping (see manual for instructions).

Pets are allowed we just ask that they stay off the furniture; there is plenty of room for dogs to run around the 10 acres. Please disclose if you are bringing a pet as there is a small cleaning fee.

We have a large driveway, please park on the gravel not the grass.
Fire pit: you can use any brush you find, but bring wood.
Charcoal grill: bring charcoal.

We have a lockbox and will provide the code when you book. There is a surveillance camera monitoring the front door/drive. (No cameras/devices inside cabin).

There is one seasonal neighbor in the area.
Camp Grayling is located near I-75 where at times they have trainings.

We don’t allow extra guests without a reservation (no camping tents/RVs).

Great Getaway!
This is our 3rd time renting Bonfire Holler. It is so relaxing there. We also took Jeep rides on the trails and enjoyed nature. We plan on returning next year.

Fall Get-a-Way
Pure Michigan weekend in a cozy and immaculate cabin in the woods. Enjoyed the ability to “unplug” and listen to “old-time” music on the record player. Cabin stayed cozy with the pellet stove. Close to Hartwick Pines State Park! Enjoyable and relaxing weekend in the woods. Very responsive owner. Highly recommend.

The Perfect Getaway
This was our second year visiting The Bonfire Holler and it was perfect. The host communicated and the place was clean and cozy. Our dogs absolutely loved the pet frendly carpet in the TV area and tge fuzzy one at the end of the bed in our room.We stayed longer and visited many National Parks in the area and further out. It was a wonderful stay and we will most definitely be back again next year.

Although I had to cut our trip short due to an emergency, I was still able to enjoy and appreciate the stunning cabin and the local area. I cannot wait to go back and finish exploring. The host was an angel. I have nothing but great things to say.

Great vacation home!
We really enjoyed our stay at Bonfire Holler. Everything was ideal -- clean home, comfortable beds, very quiet relaxing location, and a well equipped kitchen! We especially got a hoot out of the old records and singing John Denver songs. What fun! Thanks so much!

Quiet and Cozy
This was our second time coming to Bonfire Holler. We really enjoy the location because it's away from people and other houses. It's close to some trails so we can ride our Jeep around and see God's beautiful creation. The bed we used was comfortable. The air conditioning downstairs was great, however, it was quite hot in the bedroom even with fans. The kitchen is adequately equipped. We really enjoy the particular house and location.

Relaxing cabin vacation
Was such a nice break from city life. The snowfall one morning of our stay outside of the cabin windows was a highlight. Our dog loved running around and yard and exploring the woods. The pellet stove kept the cabin warm and comfortable, with relatively minor inconvenience . We would love to come back and stay again!

The cabin was absolutely perfect! Great location near Hartwick Pines and Gaylord, yet tucked away in its own private space. Plenary of room to roam! The cabin had everything we needed and more and was very charming! We hope to return and see it in a different season

A True "Getaway"!!!
If you are looking to truly "get away" this is the place. Off the beaten path, this cabin is located at the end of a secluded road with acres and trails to explore. We were at the peak of color change, and the mature tree's around the property did not disappoint. The cabin is well maintained, with thoughtful touches throughout. Everything we needed was there, and some things we didn't even know we needed. Being a pet-friendly cabin, you would not know it by how clean and fresh smelling it was. If you're looking for a true place to stay, and get away from life's business (but still close to activities) this is the place. We 100% recommend it, and will certainly be back again!!!

Perfict Getaway
I loved everything about this cabin, from the moment you walk in and you saw the stone work on the stairs leading to the upstairs bedrooms. You just feel at home and relaxed. Being outside and just listening to all the different sounds of birds and other animals, I was so excited to hear an owl our first night there. We enjoyed every big and little detail about this beautiful getaway and we most definitely will be back!! Thank you for everything!!

Amazing place
We came up for a family wedding on the Manistee river. We were expecting an average cabin for the weekend, we got more than expected. There was shampoo/soap and even kids soap I’m the shower. Full kitchen with fridge water and ice. The sheets are amazing. I will be ordering a set or two. We will most likely be in contact to rent again for a weekend!
