Family Fun · Indoor Play Zone · UP Waterfalls

Spend the morning hiking to waterfalls, the afternoon on the ORV trails of the Northwoods, and the evening with your entire crew around a fire while the kids have disappeared into a three-room indoor play zone. Powderhorn Hideaway is a 4-bedroom UP Michigan retreat built for groups who want adventure over screens — a Jura pulling espresso, Northern Lights on clear nights, and more to do inside than outside.

This house runs on fun —
THE KITCHEN & LIVING: Exposed vertical log walls from the original 1800s homestead anchor a kitchen no new construction can replicate. Concrete countertops, blue cabinetry, stainless appliances, long prep counter — built for groups. A pellet stove, timber beams, and a carved wooden archway connect everything from old to new.
THE COFFEE BAR: Dedicated espresso/ beverage bar with a Jura machine stocked for the stay, wine fridge, and so much character. Morning coffee before the trailhead hits differently.
The kids get two entire levels to disappear into:
UPSTAIRS — a hidden passage leads to:
Planetarium — hand-painted star ceiling mural, working constellation projector
Game loft — Catan, Monopoly, Scrabble, and more
THE PLAY ZONE (basement):
Climbing wall, monkey bars, a slide, hammock netting, and the ultimate fort-building space — piled with play mattresses for the fort of a lifetime.
THE BEDROOMS (4 total, sleeps 16):
Primary suite — king bed, TV, blackout curtains, floor-length mirror
Second king suite — king bed, TV, blackout curtains, floor-length mirror
Double bedroom — two double beds, great light (sleeps 4)
Bedroom 4, the basement fort room — 8 twin beds right off the play zone (the kids will never want to leave)
THE BATHROOMS (2 full baths, both with showers): 1st floor bath with stone tile, walk-in shower, and burnt wood details. Spacious second bath with agate tile, round mirror, and gold sconces.
OUTSIDE: BBQ grill and a fire pit, with firewood included (it's stocked in the red shed). Coming soon: a pickleball court (the base is in, just waiting on blacktop, so you may notice the footprint in the yard) and a sauna shed.
Washer/dryer. Starlink WiFi. Smart TVs with streaming throughout. Pack 'n Play available. Pets are welcome with prior approval — $50 per pet per stay. Please add your pets to the traveler count when booking so the fee is applied automatically. Keep pets off furniture, leashed outside, never unattended, and clean up after them.
