Cabin 5 on Fife Lake

The Lake Cabins Resort provides a rustic getaway with modern amenities for your hiking, biking or boating vacation. The resort accommodations include the Lake House and 6 log cabins. along with complimentary use of our kayaks and paddle boards. Our resort has 100 ft of private beachfront along all sport, 617 acre Fife Lake, which is known for its great fishing and water sports. A short drive to Traverse City, Kalkaska and Cadillac put Fife Lake in the center of it all, with the Boardman River to the north and the Manistee River to the south. Whether you are looking for a getaway for 2, or a place to host a large gathering, The Lake Cabins Resort has something to fit your needs.

The resort was built in the early 40’s and has lots of local history with the people and families that have enjoyed the resort in years past. We have restored the full log cabins with new kitchens and many upgrades that make for a great vacation spot. Fife Lake was voted best inland lake in northern Michigan in 2014.

Our pristine beach is a great place to relax and soak up some sun. You can feel comfortable with the kids swimming off our beach as the water is shallow to the end of our dock. Boat rentals are available should you wish to tour the lake and find the eagles nests or loon’s nests.
Come visit up north and stay on the Lake!

Cabin 5 has 2 bedrooms and 1 futon that make out to a double beds. Sleeps 5 comfortably, 6 if the children are small. Approximately 350 square feet.

Cozy Getaway
We had 5 adults stay in one of the small cabins and felt there was plenty of room. The cabin was very rustic, clean, and well maintained. The cabin was fully stocked with supplies (including coffee filters!) and condiments. One of the many things that I really liked was that each cabin has and area for their own fire pit, table, and lawn chairs. This area was a good size and was set up to where we felt secluded from the other cabins and could enjoy chatting and playing games with our group. The owner, Jeff, was very friendly and helped us unload and load our vehicles. When he saw us outside of the cabin he made sure to greet us and see if we needed anything. Jeff was so gracious to take our group on a boat ride around the lake and talked to us about the lake and the different properties. These cabins were a great little get away for a girls weekend and the hospitality of the owner was outstanding. Would highly recommend for a getaway with the girls, boys, family, and friends!

Our second stay as great as our first
This was our 2d year here. It was me, my wife, 22yr old son, 19yr old daughter, & daughter’s b-friend. Jeff greeted us as we parked, showed us our cabin & made sure we settled in. Jeff and Becky were unobtrusive, but if you had any concern at all they were right there to help. The cabins are more or less identical: cozy but not cramped. Two bedrooms w/ dble beds, kitchen/dining/sitting room. Microwave, toaster, stove/oven. All the utensils & dishes you need. Normal sized refrig. One bath, with a nice shower: strong flow and plenty of hot water. Every cabin has its own grill & firepit. Firewood is available on site for $5. The grounds are very nice. You'll see on Google maps that it's not a large lot, but we never felt hemmed in. There is a large green space between the cabins and the lake for relaxing. The water front has a strip of sand for kids to play. The water is knee deep so I would feel safe letting kids splash around. The lake is very clean and has a firm sandy bottom. Kayaks and paddleboards are available free of charge. Laundry, grocery, & restaurants are no more than 10 miles away, & Jeff & Becky will give you recommendations for all. You're <60 min from Traverse C, Petoskey, Sleeping Bear, etc., so this is a nice place to stay if you want to explore the area. You won't find better for the price. This is the kind of unpretentious summer cabin I've stayed in since I was a kid, and I loved it. As long as we keep vacationing in NE lower Mich we’ll stay here.

Perfect getaway!
My sister, my children and I really enjoyed our stay. We rented Cabin 5. The cabin was well stocked and really cute. The owners were onsite and were able to answer any questions we had. They were very helpful and friendly. Fife Lake is close to Traverse City and a great, quiet destination. We enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding in the lake. At night, it was nice to have a campfire and relax. I highly recommend staying here.

Get away weekend
Nice cabin, very clean! All the basics you need are there. Liked you had your own fire pit, picnic table and chairs. Just know that when it says rustic cabin that’s what these are, which we were good with. Owners were nice, greeted us as soon as we arrived. Only thing that we had a minor issue was the beds, they’re on the smaller size( believe their fulls) my husbands feet hung off the end/not very comfy and beach area was a little disappointing. There could be some updates but great place close too lots of places too visit. Would go back!!
