Log Cabin home on the Sturgeon River in Indian River

Relax by the Sturgeon River or enjoy the fresh air on the back porch of our fully furnished log home, watching the ducks play and float past. Our lodge is tucked away on a quiet road that follows the Sturgeon River and yet is also right in town. Walk or bike ½ mile into downtown Indian River to shop with Devoe Beach on Burt Lake, the Indian River, and bike / snowmobile trails less than a mile away. Enjoy kayaking, canoeing, or tubing down the Sturgeon River and Indian River. Fish for trout or walleye right in from the edge of the backyard. At the end of the day, enjoy sitting by the firepit.

Our Lodge:
After your adventures, wind down with a cool house during summer turning on central air when necessary or stay toasty with the gas fireplace during the winter.

Your group will sleep comfortably in 3 bedrooms with 2 containing queen beds and one containing both a queen and twin bed. Getting ready in the morning is easy with 2 bathrooms. In the evening, play games at the dinner table, watch a movie on 47” flat screen TV, or curl up in the loft to read a book or surf the web (free high speed WiFi). For mealtime, dine out, enjoy dinner in the backyard watching the wildlife and river, or dine inside using the fully equipped kitchen.

Our lodge sits back from the road with plenty of driveway for whatever toys you may bring with you.
