The North holds some of our favorite memories, and now it can be home to some of yours!
Imagine a place where time slows down and nature takes center stage. For seven years, Northern Michigan Cabins has been making that “Up North” dream come true for families, adventurers, and anyone looking to escape the ordinary. Whether you’re looking for a cozy cottage nestled in the woods, a well-appointed ski chalet near the slopes, or a charming lodge by the lake, Northern Michigan Cabins has the perfect getaway waiting for you.
How It All Started
It all began with brothers Jim and Joe Meloche. They grew up vacationing in Northern Michigan, creating lifelong memories skiing, hiking, golfing, fishing, and swimming. Eight years ago, they took the plunge and bought their first vacation home, turning their love for cabin time into a full-time lifestyle. Now, they’ve grown their vacation rental business into a premier destination for those seeking the beauty and serenity of Northern Michigan.
The Bellaire Experience
At the heart of Northern Michigan is Bellaire, a town that’s as charming as it is adventurous. It’s the perfect place to base your vacation, whether you want to hit the slopes at Schuss Mountain, play a round of golf on one of the area’s world-class courses like The Legend or Cedar River, or just enjoy the natural splendor of the region. Bellaire offers something for everyone — from boutique shopping and antiquing to craft beers at the famous Short’s Brewery.
If you’re a foodie, you’ll love the local dining options. Enjoy the panoramic views from the Lakeview Restaurant or grab a casual meal at the River Bistro. And after a long day of skiing, head to Ivan’s Mountainside Café for some lively après-ski fun.
The Great Outdoors
Northern Michigan is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll find endless activities all year long — from mountain biking and kayaking in the summer to snowboarding and cross-country skiing in the winter. Explore the Glacial Hills Pathway and Natural Area, a 32-mile trail system that’s perfect for hiking, mountain biking, or winter sports.
Nearby, the pristine waters of Torch Lake, Clam Lake, and Lake Bellaire offer opportunities for swimming, boating, and fishing. Want to experience something unique? Try dogsledding in the winter or take a chairlift ride up Schuss Mountain in the fall for some of the most breathtaking views of Michigan’s vibrant autumn colors.
