Hand-built cabins designed for stillness, simplicity, and reconnection.

Our Cabins

  • Off-grid rental cabin, hand built in Michigan's Upper Peninsula

    Orchard Cabin

    Tucked beneath old hemlocks at the edge of the garden, the Orchard Cabin was the first hand-built log structure on the property. It sits near the heart of the homestead, overlooking a pasture where Highlander cows and chickens roam freely. The covered front porch offers a quiet place to rest and take in the rhythm of daily life. A footpath leads from the cabin to a spring-fed pond, winding past a small grove of apple trees—offering beauty, shade, and the occasional autumn harvest along the way. At the pond, a hammock and fire ring invite reflection, stillness, and connection to the land.

    Pond Cabin

    Tucked deep into the woods at the far end of the spring-fed pond, the Pond Cabin offers a truly off-grid experience. With no electricity or running water, it invites you to step out of the noise and into a slower rhythm—where quiet mornings, firewood warmth, and uninterrupted stillness define your stay. Secluded and surrounded by trees, it's the perfect space for reflection and returning to what’s essential.

Where the trail leads inward. A stay at Bear Tree is more than a getaway—it's a return.
