Mckeever Cabin in MI -- Campground & RV Camping

McKeever Cabin is a rustic wooden structure on a knoll overlooking McKeever Lake. The cabin sleeps up to six people and features two bunk beds with four mattresses, a table with stools, a counter, and a wood-burning stove. Amenities are primitive with no electricity; a vault toilet and a hand pump for drinking water are located along the outdoor trail.
