EXPLORE Munising Alger Falls

This stay was a disaster. The map pin is completely wrong — the cabin is 3.5 miles from Munising, not on the water, and not even in city limits. It sits on a busy highway with constant semi-truck traffic and engine braking, making it impossible to sleep. A white noise machine was provided but not shown in listing photos — clearly meant to hide how loud it is. The so-called “mini kitchen” had no stove or oven, just a microwave, mini-fridge, and a sink too small to wash a plate. We brought groceries we couldn’t use. The “lanai” is just a concrete step with two chairs. The listing also claimed there was a fire extinguisher — there wasn’t — even though there’s a fire pit right outside. Serious safety issue. Hot water lasted 8 minutes, then needed 30 minutes to reheat. The cabin “sleeps 4” but came with just 2 plates and 2 bowls, and the dishes were dirty. No check-in info, no on-site staff, and a $100 cleaning fee for what turned out to be a VRBO rental disguised as a hotel on Expedia. I contacted the host and received no response for over a day. Absolutely would not stay here again.

This was a last minute weekend in Oct stay! I am so glad we found EXPLORE and they had availability!! We stayed in a studio cabin. We did not use any of the provided appliances so I cannot comment on those. Place was clean! Comfortable! Shower was perfect after a long day or two of hikes! There are a couple of trails on property which came in handy after our long drive up first day ! Will stay here again !!!!

We went up to see the pictured rocks and this looked like a great place to stay, which it was. The cabin was very clean and had great amenities. It was easy to find, and communication with them was excellent. The beds were a little hard, but not so much that it stopped us from getting good rest from all the hiking we did! The firepit and short trail to a secluded waterfall was an awesome perk!

Pros: Availability, when nothing else was available in the area. Washer/dryer. Kitchen area. Sitting area. Modern and clean. Cons: Extremely expensive rate and a Very high cleaning fee. Access to front door of cabin was a little steep hill which made it awkward to carry luggage and belongings in and out. It had a 10:00 a.m. checkout which is earlier than other places we have stayed on our trips.

Nice place!! No stove/oven in the house
