Are you planning your holiday in Michigan, but you also want to bring your four-legged friend with you? Good news: there are many pet-friendly rentals in this beautiful US state, and I have already collected the best ones in this travel guide!

In fact, here you will find the top pet-friendly cabins in Michigan that will give you access to stunning vacation spots like Lake Michigan and all the privacy you need. Although some of them cover a pet fee for a stay, I will specify which.

I have divided all the stunning accommodations that I’ve found by cabin capacity (large, medium, and small), and I have also added an extra bonus with the top pet-friendly cabins with a lakefront location, so you are only spoiled by choice.

The only thing you have to remember is to book your favorite accommodation far in advance (at least 2 or 3 months), so you can make sure you reserve yourself a spot and maybe find some good deals.
