Yep, haven't timed how long it takes from the driveway to our road. Takes more time getting all the gear on!
Don't want to skew the numbers zero I live here.lol

8.5 hours to Marquette- worth every minute getting there, major drag coming back!!
, major drag coming back!! 
Driving alone it's 2-1/2 hours, I don't stop.
With everyone it's 3, Gotta add for the Mcd's break in Turtle lake.
Traffic isn't too bad, cause we don't go the direction everyone else does. And after the halfway point I'm nearly alone on the road even on Holiday weekends.
It's always too far away, when we want to go there. But once we get there it feels just the right distance. Far enough to keep most visitors away.

Takes 90 minutes for me to drive to 'da cabin. In an average year, we spend roughly 60-70 nights at the cabin (we rarely go anywhere else on vacation).
If you don't have a specific location in mind, my advice would be to keep the time under 4 hours (2 is better).
Any longer than that, and you will likely not use it enough to warrant the expense.
If it takes 6-8 hours to get there, you will only likely go a couple times a year....at that point rent a place....its way cheaper.
Figure out the number of nights you would be able to stay there in a given year, and then divide the cost of buying a place by the number of nights.....it ain't cheap!

Exact same thing here. It was my cabin from 1991 until I moved up here full time in June of 2006. Never going back to the city!!

It takes 2 hours and 15 minutes in the spring, summer, and fall but in the winter we ride out on the sleds, 4 or more hours depending on the route
