Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
The Cottage at The Busted Grouse is ideal for anyone looking to enjoy an Up North retreat reminiscient of the family cottage they may have grown up with. Located in the heart of the Au Sable River's Holy Water section, we've gone to great lengths to hold true to the mid-century character of the cottage while making modern upgrades of all mechanicals and even a Wolf range. All of the rooms are spacious, allowing for plenty of room to gather or find a secluded spot to relax.

The space
Every space in this cottage was designed for getting together. The living room, dining room and sunroom are all spacious and have plenty of room for everyone. Touches like the reach through windows from the kitchen, pocket french doors into the sunroom and wood detail in the celiing of the living room speak to the large investement the original owner made when designing and building the cottage. We've worked hard to decorate and furnish the cottage to ensure comfort and a true cottage feel.

Guest access
Guests will be renting this entire cottage. There is a separate landing to the river out front. Guests will not have use of the adjacent garage or adjacent chalet cabin that's also on site. That can be rented separately.

Other things to note
We own two cottages this property, but it's over three acres with nearly 300' of riverfront. They each have their own amenities including their own private sitting areas at the river. We've also located the grills, fire rings and picnic tables to ensure each renter has their own private experience.
