We would DEFINITELY stay here again, only draw backs we had were the main bedroom barely has room to walk around the bed and there is no closet so having your luggage with you is impossible. The Kcup attachment was missing so i had to cut open my pods and use the grounds. And the shower head is very old and clogged, made showers a little rough. The fishing was AMAZING! We WILL be back!

It was very nice and peaceful, the river right now in the backyard did a little bit of fishing, the only thing that could make it better is maybe some cable or Wi-Fi

Nice getaway

We were looking for a quiet retreat for our family close to our favorite Michigan beach. This fit the bill. The lack of internet was such a nice break. We loved the extensive movie collection.

What a great stay. The pics do not do the place justice. Seems too often the opposite is true. Clean, renovated, right on the river where we caught a few trout, and peaceful. Whole family loved it.

Cabin

Was a very nice cabin with excellent access to Pere Marquette river. No cell service or wifi, that was a bit of a challenge. When I arrived the cabin was 82 inside with no window screens installed. I found the screens in the garage and installed them so I could make the inside bearable. The cabin seemed pretty duaty inside toiletries were scarce but I managed. I truly loved the cabin and its layout. There was ample room and outdoor furnishings available.

Best Cottage on the River

This was our third year here for a week. We love love the new deck and siding! Such a treasure I hate sharing how much we love this place for fear it will be booked up when I want to stay. Very homey and comfortable! It’s the next best thing to owning the place myself. ur favorite place to get away for a peaceful week. And our dogs come too because they love the big back yard and sitting on the river deck watching the fish go by. A++
