Front-Row Sunsets on Great Sand Bay: Meet The Sunset House in Eagle River, MI. A RentMichiganCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2019!

Cabintimers, this one is special. The Sunset House sets you right on Lake Superior’s Great Sand Bay with a walk-out sand beach and nightly bonfire vibes. Two standouts grab you right away: a huge game room (ping-pong, air hockey, darts, foosball) that keeps the crew smiling after dark, and an upstairs king bedroom with a glass balcony for private stargazing and sunrise coffee. That’s how you start and end days on Superior.

Step onto the sand and you’re a half-mile beach walk from Eagle River. Great Sand Bay sits between Eagle River and Eagle Harbor on scenic M-26, famous for soft dunes, offshore sandbars, and those long lavender sunsets that make you pause mid-conversation. It’s a front-row seat to ships, night skies, and—if you’re lucky—the Northern Lights.

Inside, the kitchen is road-trip smart: two refrigerator/freezers so you can stock once for the week, plus dishwasher, stove/oven, microwave, coffee maker, and the works. Eat at the deck’s picnic table or grill out—gas and charcoal are waiting. The living room has Lazy Boy rockers, and there’s fast Wi-Fi; Verizon service is noted to be strong. Part of the home’s power even comes from solar. Movie night? Queue up the entertainment room with a 60″ TV and a library of discs.

Sleep space is generous for multigenerational getaways. The home sleeps 10 with five bedrooms and two baths, including three king beds. Add a full-size Lazy Boy sleeper and a full sofa sleeper for flexible arrangements. Weekly rentals only—Friday to Friday—from May through November; no pets. Minimum renter age is 30. Check-in 4 p.m.; check-out 11 a.m. (Pro tip: booking direct here saves you serious money compared to third-party sites.)

Your Keweenaw playbook

When you’re ready to roam, this stretch of the peninsula is loaded with easy day trips:

  • Waterfall hop to Eagle River Falls, Jacob’s Falls, Silver River Falls, Haven Falls, and Hungarian Falls. Start right in town at Eagle River Falls—an easy roadside stop with big scenery.
  • Copper history lives underground at the Delaware Mine, where self-guided tours take you 100 feet below the surface.
  • Scenic drives & dark skies: Cruise the shore on M-26’s “Sand Dune Drive,” then climb Brockway Mountain Drive for sweeping Lake Superior views by day and star shows by night.
  • Lighthouses: This coast is lighthouse country—think Copper Harbor Light, Eagle Harbor Light, and more across the Keweenaw.
  • Ferry over to Isle Royale (seasonal) from Copper Harbor on the Isle Royale Queen IV for wilderness trails, moose sightings, and big-lake horizons. National Park Service
  • Low-key beach days: The no-fee Gratiot River County Park delivers driftwood, agates, and wild shoreline. Pack in, pack out.
  • Ride time: The Keweenaw has 160+ miles of ATV/SxS routes and 200+ miles of snowmobile trails when you return in winter. Rentals and maps are local.
  • Eat & sip: Grab thimbleberry jam and baked goods at The Jampot near Jacob’s Falls, then settle in lakeside for barbecue and a deep whisky list at Fitzgerald’s in Eagle River.

Good to know

Linens and towels are provided. There’s a washer/dryer with detergent, a landline, boat/trailer parking, and a level lot for easy beach access—great for kids and multi-generational groups. Weekly stays only, Friday–Friday, May–November. Book directly with owners Mark and Joni Martin for no service fees, no middleman, and local insight you won’t get elsewhere.

Ready to watch Superior swallow the sun from your own sand beach? Head to The Sunset House listing on RentMichiganCabins.com to connect with Mark and Joni and book direct—keep your budget for pasties, lighthouse tours, and extra marshmallows.

Lutsen Little Bear Lodge: A North Shore basecamp with Lake Superior views, trail access, and serious cabin vibes. A RentMinnesotaCabins.com listing member since 2019!

Cabintimers, meet your new favorite hideout on Lutsen Mountain. Lutsen Little Bear Lodge is a modern post-and-beam cabin tucked among the pines with treetop views that sweep toward Lake Superior. You’re up in the hills, away from the crowds, yet minutes from the action. It’s the sweet spot for anyone who wants fresh air by day and a quiet fire by night.

Screenshot

Location is the power move here. The cabin sits less than two miles from Lutsen Mountains, Superior Hiking Trail access, Superior National Golf Course, North Shore Winery, Sawtooth Cider House, and several dining options. Roll out for first chair, wander to a trailhead, or coast over for a tasting when the alpenglow hits the ridgeline. That “close to everything, far from everyone” balance is hard to beat on the North Shore.

Inside, the layout is built for together time. The open great room gathers folks around the fire after ski laps or shoreline hikes. Step onto the deck for star-sprinkled skies and, when conditions line up, a shot at some auroral shimmer. With three bedrooms and two baths sleeping up to eight, Little Bear works for families, trail crews, or a couple of couples who travel well together. Pets are welcome, too—well-behaved four-legged trail buddies can join the trip for a simple per-visit fee.

Travel math that makes sense: weekday stays start at $179 and weekends from $199, plus cleaning and tax. Book direct with the owners to keep it simple and save around 6%—no extra service fees and you get local intel straight from the source. That’s exactly how Cabintimers prefer it.

What can you get up to here? Start with skiing and riding at Lutsen Mountains, the largest lift-served terrain in the Midwest. In summer and fall, trade planks for pedals on Jackpot/High Climber MTB trails or hike Oberg Mountain for a wide-angle shot of lake and forest. The Superior Hiking Trail threads the hills, waterfalls roar after rains, and the shoreline serves up agates and black-sand coves. When you need town time, Grand Marais is an easy cruise for galleries, pie, and a harbor walk.

Winter flips the script in the best way. Ski laps, then explore Nordic networks, snowshoe routes, frozen falls, and dog-sled tours. On deep-cold nights, step out onto the deck and listen to the forest crackle. North Shore winters are crisp, bright, and addictive.

Food and sips? Pour a flight at North Shore Winery, try local cider, and keep an eye out for wood-fired pizza nights. Back at the cabin, a full kitchen means easy breakfasts before the gondola, trail-snack assembly lines, and late suppers after sunset hikes.

Ready to lock in a stay? Visit the Lutsen Little Bear Lodge listing and book directly with the owners—no middleman, no extra fees, just fast answers and real local advice. Cabintimers know: direct is better on the wallet and smarter for planning.

Before you go, keep exploring the rest of the It’s Cabin Time® family across the country. From the Apostle Islands to Big Bend, our regional sites make it easy to find your next cabin and book direct with owners and local managers.
