Quiet, Simple, and Surrounded by Trees Au Sable Backwaters Mio

Tucked among a cluster of old storybook cabins, our little place in the woods offers a simple, back-to-basics kind of stay. No frills, no fuss just the essentials and a quiet invitation to slow down. This area of Northern Michigan has a character all its own. You’ll find tall pines, friendly waves from neighbors, and a refreshing sense that folks here live by their own rhythm. The cabin is modest with a screened in patio made for sitting with a strong cup of coffee or something stronger. Nature is ever-present: birds, wind in the trees, and the occasional ATV. Just down the road, the Au Sable River offers world-class fishing, peaceful floats, and trails for hiking and biking. Nearby towns offer a glimpse into a culture that’s equal parts practical, proud, and unhurried. This isn’t a luxury escape, it’s a real place, with a whole lot of heart. If you’re looking to reconnect with nature, unplug, and appreciate the charm of simpler things, you might feel right at home here.
