About this property

Horn HideAway: Wooded Cabin Retreat, Fire Pit, Lake Fun, Cozy, Sleeps 8, Pets!

  • Welcome fall in Northern Michigan at Horn HideAway! Escape to crisp mornings, brilliant fall colors, cozy evenings around the fire, and everything Northern Michigan has to offer this season. We're just minutes from Gaylord, making the cottage a perfect home base for fall color tours, hiking, fishing, and exploring the area.

    Planning ahead for snowmobile season? Book now! When the snow arrives, bring your sleds and hit the trails—you can directly access the Gaylord–Lewiston trail system from our subdivision, making Horn HideAway a convenient home base for a Northern Michigan snowmobile getaway. Spend the day riding and come back to a warm, comfortable cottage to relax for the evening.

    The Horn HideAway features 2 bedrooms plus a spacious loft area. Please note that the loft may not be ideal for young children, as it is accessed by a built-in ladder. The ladder is sturdy and secure, and the loft space can be closed off for privacy. We affectionately call this cozy retreat the “Birds’ Nest.” It includes a queen bed, full bed, and a dedicated workspace with an additional monitor, making it perfect for relaxing or remote work.

    The kitchen was recently updated featuring a new stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher. A breakfast bar with seating for two overlooks the dining area. The dining table has room for at least 4 more. Guests will also find plenty of small appliances including a coffee maker, crockpot, waffle maker, griddle, and more to make your stay comfortable and convenient.

    Outside, enjoy peaceful wooded surroundings with a fire pit and multiple outdoor seating areas. Marshmallow roasting sticks are available in the kitchen, and fire starter logs are kept in the utility room if you need a little help getting the fire going.

    Stay connected with high-speed internet, reliable cell service, and streaming TV options.

    The Horn HideAway has been lovingly built and enjoyed by our family for over 20 years. Tucked among the trees in a peaceful wooded setting, you’ll feel away from it all while being just 10–15 minutes from Gaylord and all it has to offer.

Up north cabin

The beds were comfortable and the property is in a nice lake community up north. It's very close to Gaylord, and it's very quiet.

Perfect for a golf trip

This was a perfect location for a golf trip to the Gaylord area. Right between Treetops and Garland and several other courses. The host was very good at responding to our questions, and the cabin was just right for us (two golfing guys) to be comfortable. Paul's Pub - about 1.5 miles down the road - was wonderful as well.

The property was clean and outfitted with everything you might need. Only downside was TV didn’t work. That didn’t mar the stay. This place is adorable and very relaxing.

Good Summer fun home

Pack light, this cabin is comfortable and cozy. Many extra essential and toys.. This was close to rivers and lakes for summer fun. Gaylord is a great town. July 4th parade and fireworks in Joannasburg gave that small town feeling. Quiet and tucked in,truly a hideaway. On our 10 night stay we explored all over northern Mi... Would definitely return
