Romantic - Historic - Luxury Log Cabin - A Fairy Tale Experience and Setting

Just 25 minutes east of Grayling on the AuSable River. Our cabin is literally 50 feet from the river's edge.

Looking for a truly unique, breathtaking and romantic Log Cabin Experience on the Au Sable River? You've Found it!!

Commonly known as "Copper Fox Lodge", a rare, 4-season, luxury-appointed, log cabin sitting on the rivers edge. Experience a gorgeous log cabin with upscale furnishings and touches. Cuddle up to a cozy stone fireplace. Relax with incredible riverfront views on one of America's natural scenic treasures - The Au Sable! Sit under towering pine trees. Cast a line in a legendary trout stream. This is an atmosphere most people never get to experience first hand. We love sharing our cabin with others and ultimately our greatest desire is that you have the most memorable vacation possible.

No matter the season, the atmosphere is perfect for a romantic getaway, anniversary, birthday, honeymoon, or intimate family vacation.

The cabin sits in a secluded river location with 12 acres of privacy and is for your exclusive use. Access to the river at the cabin is easy. There are no high banks to contend with and you have a half mile of wadable trout fishing water and lots of river structure in front of the cabin to hold trout. Brown, Rainbow, and Brook trout can be caught right out front.

In the warmer months common outdoor activities in the region include fishing, hiking, bird watching, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, tubing, golfing, ATV trail riding, and horseback riding. In the winter months things don't slow down as the temperatures, snowfall, and terrain make an ideal winter wonderland for hunting, snowmobiling, tubing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and even downhill skiing. The area is rich with outfitters supporting your canoe, kayak, tube, ATV, snowmobile, horseback, skiing, and fishing interests.

The Michigan roads in this region are well maintained year round. The access road to the cabin is also maintained year round catering to 2WD vehicles. We also have a Generac standby, whole house, generator - so you never need to worry about losing power in a storm and the fireplace will always keep you warm and cozy.

Nearby are the Holy Waters of the Au Sable, Mio Trophy Waters, and Masons Tract along the South Branch. Experience miles of groomed snowmobile trails throughout the region right from our doorstep. The region also sports numerous cross country ski trails, tubing hills, and even a few downhill slopes.

The cabin has everything you could possibly need. Fully furnished Kitchen; All Bedding and Linens; All Bath Towels; Flat Screen TV; Satellite DirecTV; DVD and VHS Player; High-speed Starlink WIFI; Games; Luxury Gas Log Fireplace; Propane BBQ Grill; Horseshoes, Ladder and Washer Game; and Screened Gazebo.

If our calendar is full - please check out our sister cabin, the "Gold Fox Lodge", just 3 miles away. VRBO 4168572

Magnificent!!!
Beautiful property. Clean with all the amenities. Everything was as good or better than advertised. Saw plenty of wildlife everyday on the property. Nice slice of frontage on the AuSable with expansive view from the shore. Only issue was it rained for a portion of our stay, but the cabin has an excellent view from indoors with panoramic windows so it almost didn't matter. Would definitely book again.

My elderly parents, brother and I really enjoyed the cabin. But we had to leave Sundary because my mother got ill. We did truly enjoyed the time there, it was so beautiful and loved the birds and squirrels. Hopefully we will be able to come again and stay. Thanks

We had a wonderful stay. I am a disabled vet and have been struggling with lung and colon cancer for a little over a year and had the most relaxing and most stress relief week since I was diagnosed. I’m in my second round of chemo and felt good every day. I hope it’s Gods will to let me return for another stay. May God bless Jeff Beth and his family for having the want to make such a wonderful stay for everyone. Top of my list for the best vacation the Wife and I have had. Will recommend without hesitation to all our friends

A Little Slice of Paradise
We discovered a little slice of paradise at the Copper Fox Lodge. Rain welcomed us. Birds entertained us. Au Sable River soothed us. Thanks for highlighting the Boardwalk Hike. The old growth cedars were truly remarkable. We're already dreaming of fly fishing on our next visit.

Peace and Tranquility
We were looking for a place that was private and offered peace and tranquility. We found it! The cabin was very well appointed and felt like home. The bottle of wine and homemade bread was a very nice added touch. Lounging by the river, doing some fly fishing (or at least trying) all the while watching and listening to the birds and wildlife was total relaxation. Our trip was much too short and we will be back! We loved the area!

This is the best rental we've ever stayed at. Photos accurately represent the property.
We had a great time staying at the Copper Fox Lodge. The property was beautiful and well kept both inside and out and the view of the river was awesome. Everything you could ever need and then some was provided with the home. We were sad to go. We highly recommend staying here.

Amazing
This is an amazing property that offered everything we needed for a family getaway. Turkeys and deer walking through the property was awesome, as well as watching the mink play by the river. Fires at night with the rhythm of the Au Sable in the background is just what we needed. We look forward to visiting again.

Heaven on Earth at Copper Fox Lodge
Thanks so much for providing such a beautiful place to stay! The beauty of the grounds and cabin were outstanding. It was truly so serene and peaceful. We actually felt the stress just melt away upon our arrival, and the chilled bottle of wine was much appreciated! Two days just wasn’t long enough. We will be back!!

This is such a special place. It is absolutely lovely - nice and isolated and right beside the river. We were welcomed in the door by a fire on the fireplace, lamps lit, Christmas music playing - it was so cozy! I loved standing at the kitchen sink, watching the river go by. We were provided everything we needed to have a wonderful stay. Thanks Jeff and Beth!! I hope we can come back.
