About
Rustic Cabins, at Wilderness State Park. It's a rustic cabin with no electricity or running water inside - most of Michigan's rustic cabins are heated by a wood fireplace or propane heater. A vault toilet is a short walk away, and potable water is available at nearby spigots. Bring your own bedding, dishes, and cookware. Pricing here varies by cabin rather than one flat rate, and some of these units may be bunkhouse-style, though that isn't confirmed.
Fees
$100 to $108/night. A Recreation Passport is required for vehicle entry, separate from this nightly rate.
Rustic - no modern restrooms.
