Welcome to this charming cabin that sits directly on the edge of the South Branch of the Pere Marquette River. The cabin sits on 2 acres of private property overlooking 750' of prime trout fishing waters. The cabin also is located to adjacent to the Michigan snowmobile and ATV trail system. This amazing retreat features two bedrooms and a sleeping loft, plus a serene living room that includes a full bed for extra comfort. Guests enjoy clean, well-appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Whether you’re relaxing indoors or planning your day on the water, grilling on the deck, or sitting at the fire pit overlooking the river at night this phenomenal property offers a peaceful escape.
You will love the view of the river from the deck and fishing from the low bank yard for trout. The river is a must to take a day kayak trip and we supply you with 10 kayaks and paddles. Star gazing while sitting around the fire pit at night is one of our favorite things to do.
The cabin sits right on the Michigan snowmobile trail, grab your sleds and head to Baldwin, Bitely, or Chase for lunch. Our favorite thing to do is grab our side by side and head out on the trails. We also love to get pizza from the Ruby Creek Tavern or head over to the Silver Bullet for dinner.

Really loved this home and location. The view of the river is so beautiful and you feel secluded without being in the middle of no where. I would happily stay again!
We loved staying at this property! My family and I had a great time listening to the river and hanging out. The kids absolutely loved the loft! We will definitely be staying here again.
The property was well appointed and beautiful on the river. The cabin was comfortable and very clean. It was nice to be able to use the kayaks, as well.
This place was perfect for a couple of families to share. The inside is really nice. The deck and outdoor kitchen are great for grilling and outdoor dining. The beds and pillows are comfortable. We took the kayaks on a float trip down the river. The kids were able to skip rocks, swim and fish from the yard. Fun place to stay!
Wonderful set up. Place was very clean and updated. It was the perfect space for our trip. The patio is where we spent most of our time, the grills were were great.
My partner and I stayed with three other couples and it was a great time. The rain gave us a reprieve so we could enjoy the deck and grill. They went swimming in the river out back. We had a blast. Would definitely stay here again.
We came up from a Ohio for the Salmon run, the location was perfect for us, and the place was very accommodating. We were very comfortable and had plenty of rest for the days’ grind in the Pere Marquette river. We put the grill to use right away and enjoyed the quiet in the late evenings. Highly recommended and would consider booking next season.
The property was PERFECT! Communication with owner was very good, very helpful and very easy going! We loved our stay and riding the trails while reuniting with family! We will be back and will recommend this property to all!! Thank you Thom!
We had a wonderful stay at this well appointed and comfortable home. Ten women bonding and having a blast! We rafted, we drank, and we laughed and laughed! There was plenty of room and seating for all! The majority of our time was spent hanging out on the massive deck which is sporting a brand new and quite comfortable dining set. Thank you for letting us in to your home and sharing this beautiful piece of property with us!
This was are third time staying here for are fishing trip. Place was spotless. But it’s getting too expensive. Raise the price 200 a night more is too expensive now so we will just look for a cheaper place next year. I know everything is going up. But you know what time it is for fishing. I get it. But this is are third time.you think you would get a discount. PS the deck on the back was very spongy. Could be a trip hazard. But I love the place and wish it was cheaper for next year.
We stayed with family over the new year’s holiday. It snowed the day we arrived which was an added bonus as it made the property even more beautiful. Host was great!
The area was amazing. It was super quiet and the deck over the river was amazing. The outdoor kitchen area was the best! I would definitely come back to this house again!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Beautiful home and property. We had fun fishing, using the fire pit, and playing in the yard. The outdoor kitchen was great. There were plenty of places to sleep & it was great for two families to share, with the two bathrooms, washer and dryer!
