Life`s a Hoot A-Frame Cabin

Nestled along Saginaw Bay shore, you have immediate access to the water`s edge where you can breathe in the fresh air. This unique A-frame cabin provides its own special charm and character offering comforts of home with opportunity to unwind, reconnect with nature and create lasting memories with loved ones. Whether you seek adventure or relaxation, we provide the perfect backdrop for a memorable getaway.



Feel a million miles away from normal day-to-day life as you enjoy the fresh scent of Michigan`s UpNorth air, and the scene of the bay where Lake Huron and wildlife come together. Just after sunset experience the glow of the home as you sit around the campfire listening to the crackling of the burning wood in the firepit and gaze up to watch the stars. As you come inside to enjoy the comfortable accommodations, you`ll be sure to relax in the comfort of the living area and the cozy bedrooms that soothe your senses with soothing surroundings. Cooking with a lakeview is more tempting as this A-frame has a deck with a barbeque grill and a fully equipped kitchen and dining area where you and your guests can enjoy a meal and conversation together. Enjoy this location as it is great for experiencing wildlife viewing and listening to the sounds of nature. Slow down, relax and experience the memories to be made.



This A-frame cabin was born out of a deep love for the great outdoors and a desire to share the beauty of lake living with others. Your hosts embarked on a journey to create a collection of independently owned cabins by people who use their home from 6 weeks to 6 months out of the year and want to share with you the remaining time their home is open.



Imagine hopping on a paddle boat on a summer`s night with a spotlight shining down in the water and watching fish and turtles play charismatically in their natural habitat. How about relaxing on the deck at sunrise while enjoying your fresh cup of coffee and the aroma of the fresh morning air? Winter adventures await as you, take a moonlit walk on a frozen lake, watch the unspoiled fish right under your feet as you shine a flashlight through the ice. Time escapes you as you engross the view of this natural wonder.



Lake Life Cabin Rentals continues to grow, expanding its collection of cabins and welcoming new guests to experience natures scenic wonders. The story is an ongoing journey, with each guest becoming part of the Lake Life family and we are eager to share with you!



Located on the shores of Saginaw Bay, the quiet, rural area offers a perfect blend of relaxation and excitement making an ideal destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Keep your camera ready to capture wildlife sightings and breathtaking views or cast a line as our waters are abundant with walleye, perch and bass. Then rest and relax, listening to the sounds of nature and the gentle lapping of the lake, as you reflect on your unforgettable experience leaving you longing to return.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a short but wonderful stay at Lifes-A-Hoot. Such a cute place to stay. Beautiful views with lots of wildlife to be seen. A deer even walked up on us while we were watching the sunrise. The beds were very comfy. Anything we needed was there in the cabin. We will definitely stay again!

Best i can do

I don't normally leave poor reviews. Booked during a slow weekend. Our paralyzed son had an emergency and we've been in hospital all week. He was really looking forward to the trip, but owner wouldn't let us reschedule (didn't ask for refund, we just wanted to reschedule)for another weekend. Its their right to act that way. Its just unfortunate that they choose too. Enjoy your free money I guess
