Great Stay
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.

No propane
I had to go buy propane for the fire pit and two kayaks leaked water inside. Just a very inconvenient because for our 4 th time, we were only there for a couple days. Way too pricey.

Great Family Getaway
We really enjoyed being right on the Pere Marquette! We had so much fun on our kayak trip! The guys enjoyed being able to fish right off the back deck. We didn’t have propane for the fire pit, but one quick message to the owner and he had a propane tank delivered promptly. Thank you so much for a very enjoyable getaway!

Yard was better than the listing!
House was just as expected. I had two questions while there and the owner was so quick to respond with helpful information! The yard is HUGE and all along the river. We loved enjoying the huge property from fishing along the banks, a kayak trip, and the young child loved watching moving water. Would book again!

We stayed here a few days with our family. The deck looks out on the river, you can literally fish over the rail. It's a beautiful and quiet property. The little house is decorated so nicely. The bathrooms and kitchen are nice and clean and well stocked. The washer and dryer were much appreciated since a couple of us got wet in the river. We loved using the kayaks although we had to make several trips to get them all upstream. Not too far from groceries and gas. We did need to bring ice and drinking water. Thanks so much! We all enjoyed our stay so much!

We had another amazing weekend at Thom’s gorgeous A-Frame. The kayaks are so nice to have available and the river was more calm this year than last so only 2 of our crew tipped! The best weekend and a great space! Thanks again for having us!

Amazing place to unwind and relax with family
We rented this property for a family vacation and it was a great location, close to Ludington on Lake Michigan. The house is really nice and it’s location right on the river makes you feel like you're all alone in the forest. We definitely enjoyed our stay and the host was very responsive when we emailed with questions during our stay.
