3 Bedroom Cottage in Republic

Cozy cottage perfect for a couples getaway. Down a curvy dirt road, deep in forest of the birch and maple trees, this cute little gem of a cottage sits above beautiful and tranquil Sundog Lake. This cottage faces west and has the best view of the most amazing sunsets. There's a deck on the front to enjoy the lake view or enjoy the wooded view from the back deck. You'll see and hear wildlife galore here; deer, moose, loons, and the eagles frequently perch around this cottage. Sundog Lake is a private (no public access) spring fed lake. It's a quiet lake with the occasional fishing boat or pontoon puttering by. You have your own private dock to fish from or put out a chair and read a book. The shoreline is sand with some rocks and clams. Great swimming, relaxing on a tube but there is lake vegetation beyond the dock. Inside you'll find an efficient retreat. What she lacks in size, she makes up for in pure charm. Main level has a bedroom with a queen bed, full bathroom (stand up shower), full kitchen equipped with everything you will need, and living area with a natural fireplace. Upstairs is a loft open to the front of the home. The loft has games, books and a rocker to enjoy the view. Also in the loft are two small, but functional bedrooms. These bedrooms are open to the loft area. There is lots to explore in the Republic area like kayaking, and hiking and you are 45 min from Iron Mountain, 60 minutes from Marquette, 60 minutes from Canyon Falls, 90 minutes from Bond Falls (plus, lots to see along the way). We hope you'll come stay with us and enjoy the quiet, peacefulness of the stunning central U.P.

Summary: We loved our stay at the Yukon Trail Cabin! It was exactly what our family needed. It's quiet and remote! We have an 8 year old and 11 year old and they loved their time there as well. Our kids fished off the dock everyday and caught a bunch of fish. There are clams all over the place, and our kids also had a fun time gathering the clams and then watching them move over night! A few tips: 1. You are out in the wilderness! Pack enough groceries for the time you are there because it's a decent drive to get food. 2. There really isn't any cell service at the cabin (which is one of the things we loved!) just plan for that. 3. There are some great movies there to watch and games to play, but if you want certain ones make sure to bring them along if the weather isn't great. 4. Bring some floaties to float around in the water or get to deeper water to swim. The lake is beautiful with super clear water. Kristin does a great job communicating everything, make sure you listen to all of her tips!

Summary: This cottage is the idyllic spot to either relax and enjoy nature and solitude or as a home base to travel the UP. We chose to enjoy the peace and quiet and only did one day trip to Ishpeming and Marquette. I cant wait to return!! Thank you Kristin and Dave

Summary: This was a great place to stay. We loved the central location for day trips to the Keweenaw, Marquette, Wisconsin, and much more! The lake is beautiful and peaceful. There was no wifi available, but it was hardly missed with so much to explore. We would recommend this property!

Summary: It was a great location love how peaceful it was and the wildlife that was all around did get a little lost finding it the first time but it was actually really easy to get to once you find the road also was informed by the owners of construction although i couldnt send a message back because it is so secluded i appreciated the heads up and it was no problem getting to and from the cabin would definitely recommend if you love peace and quite and its not to far from town if needed beds where also very comfortable
