This was a fantastic stay for a family wedding in Marquette @ Carp River Gardens! The property was even more beautiful than the pictures, sparkling clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. The location was perfect, and the host was incredibly responsive to our questions. We'd highly recommend this place and would love to return

Fantastic Cabin

Great location for exploring the Marquette area. The cabin is spacious and comfortable. The kids loved the loft area. The spot by the river is beautiful. We liked it so much that we are hoping to come up this winter to explore some of the cross country ski trails in the area.

A great location, cozy backyard, and the kitchen was nicely equipped. It is worth noting that grown adults cant stand up straight in the loft portion, but perfect for elementary or middle school ages kids. Nobody goes on vacation to hang out in your bedroom anyway. We had a wonderful stay!

Perfect UP Cottage

We had 3 adults and one toddler staying here and had so much space! We were impressed with how many people could wind up fitting into this cottage. It had all the amenities we would need, and we loved being able to use the charcoal grill and fire pit. The view of the river is really nice. Instructions were clear provided by the host on how to get in and for check-out. We had a couple questions and the response time was great. The location was a perfect spot for us to go to a few different places in the UP. We’re saving this one for the future in case we have another UP trip! Highly recommend this home!

Home away from home

This Au Train home was truly cozy - a home away from home. Very clean; comfortable beds & couches; great outdoor space for enjoying river views; supplied with everything you could need for a week away. Stayed with husband, adult son & teenage girl; two downstairs bedrooms are small but perfectly functional, master is a good size with convenient half bath attached. Did not use upstairs loft area, which has ample room for twin & full bed, but has sloped ceiling so probably best for kids/smaller guests. Communication with owners was prompt, friendly & helpful. Great local in quiet Au Train, 2 min from spacious sandy beach we enjoyed thoroughly in unseasonably warm weather. Husband brought his fishing gear & had great luck fishing river at bottom of (steep- careful!) stairs-- so bonus! Definitely would return & strongly recommend.

Peaceful and serene, best for adults

This was a beautiful property and we loved the sounds of nature around us! Plenty of space since there were only two of us, and the house was set up really well with any supplies you could need. Very nice and responsive hosts. I really wanted to give it 4.5/5 stars but didn’t have the option…the only downfall was the TV situation. Part of the fun of travel for us is checking up on local news and weather, however this was not possible as the house has Roku with streaming only (like Netflix, Hulu, etc). It worked out ok but did detract a bit as we don’t have much streaming and weren’t able to watch any local sports, plus I had to mirror my Apple phone constantly to watch anything beyond Hulu. Also, for smaller children, the backyard is narrow and quite steep leading to the Au Train River. Stunning scenery with lots of ducks (which we loved!!) but no fishing whatsoever (from the shore) and the steepness isn’t great for young kids. Overall really enjoyed our trip though, lots of nature hikes and gorgeous scenery!

Exactly as described and more!

The house was exactly as described in the overview. It had EVERYTHING you could need on a vacation. The location was near perfect, close to the beach, kayaking, a small store, and close to Munising and Marquette. We have stayed in many places and this was by far the cleanest and well maintained. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone thinking about staying in this area.
