Cabin vacation rentals in Gladwin County

Excellent stay at this Airbnb. If you are thinking of coming to St Helen to ride the ORV trails, this is an excellent choice! It’s right down the street from St Helen Motorsports, two gas stations, 3 restaurants, 2 pizza shops and multiple trail head entrances within 2 miles or less!!! The house looks exactly like the pictures and description, and the hot tub, outdoor fire pit, and indoor fireplace were amazing! I will note….it is a bit on the small side. Beds are as described, but feet hang off the bed and rooms are small. 4 grown adults was pushing it here, especially with one bathroom. Also note. There is BARELY enough room for a small truck and trailer to park in front. The other truck had to park underneath the large garage due to no park space. Other than that, which is really just an explanation, it is the ultimate st Helen stop!

My wife’s family wanted to go to the casino in Standish. We didn’t, but it was an excuse to get away. This is 30 minutes away. As soon as we walked in the door, we fell in love with the place. The smell of fresh pine is everywhere, and it’s real. As I walked through the place, I thought of asking about the process they went through to make this beautiful cabin. There’s actually a picture book on the mantle that shows how they started with an empty shell. Very cool. If you look only at square footage, this is a small cabin. But, they use the space very efficiently. I never thought for one moment that the place was small or cramped. And, this is way better than a cabin at a campground. But, the real highlight is the host. It soon started feeling like we were family. Not family that makes you go to a stupid casino, but someone that’s there for you, always responding within minutes, even at 12:30 in the morning. I wish my family were more like that. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay for an up north getaway. Host was very accommodating and responsive. House was very clean and cozy.

Enjoyed my stay! It was very cozy with everything you need! The hot tub was amazing along with access to the kayaks to enjoy on the lake!! Courtney responded very quickly to any questions, this place is definitely worth the stay!

Plenty of room for everyone. We had 6 adults, 2 dogs & visitors. Pool table was fun. Hot tub was great & fire pit was fabulous!!! Close to Tawas, Sand Lake, Lake Huron & a short drive to Frankenmuth. Plenty of food & groceries in West Branch. Highly recommend & would rent from again 👍

We enjoyed our stay. The decor was on point. I loved everything about the house. I must know where that comforter in the King room came from 😂 because I fell in love with it. Host were very welcoming and accommodating. I would love to stay again but for a longer stay to enjoy all the amenities.

Great place to stay. Close to restaurants, gas stations and the water is right down the street. Also we stayed to go golfing. A lot of golf within 20 minutes. Definitely worth giving it a look.

Awesome place!! Can’t wait to book again for the family trip this place is perfect.

Absolutely stunning place! We didn't want to leave. We brought our dogs and they had an absolute blast swimming in Lake Minnow. My wife and I enjoyed walking around the lake early in the morning with a cup of coffee and having bonfires at night making S'mores and cooking Koegel hot-dogs over the flames. An absolutely perfect Michigan retreat!

Everything I hoped for! It was a perfect get away for my dog and myself. During the day we kayaked, sun tanned on the beach, play fetch, grilled, fire, and most importantly relaxed. The host is kind and quickly responds. The bed is so comfortable especially because I have back issues. Everything is organized, neat, thoughtful and clean. Nice hot shower with plenty of extra supplies if you forgot something. We enjoyed going to Steve’s country market for meat and Up North coffee shop, I recommend both. I enjoyed our time so much we made memories that will last a life time. We hope to be back again soon. 💕

This is literally THEE cutest tiny home/cottage!!! It was the most perfect weekend getaway for my best friend and I as we attended a local dog show! It is FULLY stocked with every imaginable essential you could need. Full set of cookware and cooking utensils and dinnerware, spices, oils, cleaning supplies, linens, etc. The area is soooo quiet and calm with beautiful views and sunrises! The host messaged us day of checkin to give more detailed instructions about access to the almost private driveway and it helped make it easy to locate, even for me who struggles with directions lol, and at dusk!! The house is immaculate, charming, welcoming and truly feels like home from the moment you open the door. 10/10 will look for The Hummingbird for next year's dog show in the area 😍 Thank you Kim and Doug!!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Yellow Door Lodge! The place is beautifully designed — cozy, stylish, and thoughtfully put together in every corner. It felt like a perfect home away from home. Rex was incredibly responsive and went out of his way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. His warm hospitality truly made a difference and added to the overall experience. Our dog, Puntu, had a great time too — it’s such a pet-friendly spot! He enjoyed exploring and relaxing just as much as we did. The lakeside area was a highlight. We spent some peaceful time there soaking in the view, and it added to the whole relaxing vibe of the trip. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, well-designed getaway with great hosts!

A great little cabin that was perfectly suited for our trip. Cameron was very responsive and the place was super clean!

We reserved this Airbnb so we could attend a Celebration of Life for my dear cousin, who had lived in Houghton Lake for over 35 years. He sadly passed away in February of this year. My husband and I have rented through Airbnb for 10 years, but always further north. We were very pleased with the rental and will definitely rent from them again. Love what they are doing to the back yard and can’t wait to come back up and use the fire pit. The home was very clean, spacious and nicely decorated and furnished. We would recommend this renting this home.

Visited St Helen, MI to ride trails with ATV. Trails are great, never ending, lots of friendly other riders, plenty to eat. Woodys Hot Dog stand is amazing!

A quiet, peaceful weekend after the Memorial Day rush. I was able to go Mountain biking, kayaking, and enjoy the area with my dog. Also, it was just a nice place to stay inside and relax. Close to a lot of things, but far enough away to feel secluded.

This is the second time I've stayed. For personal reasons, I had to leave early, but the hosts were very gracious and kind. The house is great and comfortable as always. The host is always easy to reach and great to speak with. I hope to make more trips here in the future for some rest away from home!

This was our 2nd time staying here & everything was as we remembered. beautiful location & wonderful neighbors ❤️

The cabin was nice and felt homey, would definitely stay here again and recommend!

Cabin was very nice. No Wi-Fi as noted in the listing but service was good enough to stay connected.

Cortneys place was very peaceful and beautiful! Plenty of room and a lot of things for the kids to do! It was really nice to have fire wood there and not to have to go find some.

I had an amazing time! So thankful for a few peaceful and cozy days.

The cabin was perfect for our stay. Very clean and comfortable. The lake is beautiful. The small fenced back yard was ideal.

5 🌟 no questions asked. Tiffany had an amazing cabin in a great location. she was a very dependable host and if I needed anything she helped to the best of he knowledge. Tiffany will be getting my booking again and she said she has some update plans so I cannot wait to be back here in the near future. Thank you again Tiffany!!!
