Our Location:
The address is 3857 – 3861 N Mintonye Road, Manistique, MI. The maps feature on your phone or GPS can give you directions to the road we are on, if not the specific location. The property is located toward the end of the gravel road on the right (west) side just before the public boat landing. Look for the sign for the “Thunder Lake Lodge and Cabin.” From the road you can see the backs of the buildings – the fronts face the lake. If you need more detailed instructions, just contact us.

Enjoy the Outdoors!
The outdoor grounds and facilities are community areas to be shared by people using either building. The shore, swimming area, dock, large fire pit, row boats, kayaks, and yard are shared between folks in the Lodge and the Cabin, although a separate fire pit is provided for the Cabin. If you are not renting both facilities, we trust you will be respectful of others’ needs and uses of the property. This as an opportunity to meet new folks from around the country. All have a common goal: to enjoy their time at Thunder Lake. When you are considerate of others, you can make new friends! Who knows? This may make your stay even more special!
