There is a place – two actually – where you can get off the grid in Michigan and reconnect with yourself, your loved ones, and even your favorite pup, without going too far from home. It’s calling to you.

Getaway House is a unique concept that offers tiny cabins on large private, rural acreages near more than two dozen U.S. cities. It’s an awesome way to spend a week – or weekend – off the grid and getting back in touch with nature, with yourself, and with peace. Let’s explore what Getaway House Michigan has to offer.

Getaway House boasts two Michigan locations, both in serene, wooded settings. One is on the west side of the Lower Peninsula.
