Why our Guests Love A-Frame of Mind.....
This is the kind of place where mornings are slow, days are full, and nights end around the fire.
• A true family-friendly chalet layout with room for everyone
• Separate hangout spaces (kids downstairs, adults upstairs, or a mix of the two…)
• A full game room + arcade and pool table area that keeps everyone entertained
• Private wooded setting—but close to golf, skiing, hiking and Bellaire
• Sauna, firepit, and deck for relaxing after a full day
Spend the day skiing at Schuss Mountain, swimming in resort pools, or out on the water at Torch Lake. Then come home to a warm, inviting space where you can cook together in a fully stocked kitchen, watch a movie by the fireplace or let the kids take over the rec room.
It’s easy. Comfortable. And exactly what a Northern Michigan vacation should feel like.
