Beautiful Cabin with Gorgeous Riverbend View. Great for relaxation and fishing!

Please see our other rental next door, VRBO Property ID 4756866

Being that we are right on a National Blue Ribbon Trout Stream, Brown and Rainbow trout fishing is a great attraction but not the only one. You can also kayak or canoe the river or just float down on a tube. Sitting on our deck allows you to relax and enjoy the view. There are many small lakes around that you can visit and fish. We are about 30 minutes to the Lake Michigan towns of Silver Lake, Pentwater or Ludington. which offer unique shops, waterfront vistas, sand dunes and nice restaurants and bars. Ludington is also home to a beatiful state park with many miles of walking or bicycle riding trails. Hart is located about 25 minutes away and is the gateway to Silver Lake State Park and Dunes, a huge recreational complex situated between Silver Lake and Lake Michigan. You can go and climb the dunes and walk to Lake Michigan or ride the world famous Mac Woods Dune Scooters or rent your own 4 wheeler and take it one the dunes! To the north about 1 hour on Lake Michigan is Manistee, a quaint local village and home to the Little River Casino. You can continue to the north on the scenic M-22 roadway, which is a beautiful car ride along Lake Michigan and it takes you through small towns like Onekema, Arcadia, Frankfurt, Empire and Glen Arbor. Empire is home to the famous Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. At that point you are only a few miles from Traverse City. There are many local breweries in these towns and up north you have many beautiful wineries that offer very tasty wines and tours.

We had an excellent stay! The cabin was at a great spot on the river for fishing, swimming, and kayaking. Check in and out was simple, the owners were responsive, and the cabin was well equipped and comfortable. Loved that it was pet friendly. We throughly enjoyed the porch, the quiet, and the views.

This place is very special for those looking for a beautiful and peaceful getaway. We all enjoyed the property with everything you need to relax in comfort surrounded by nature. We had so much fun fly fishing just steps from the grand deck, and all the nearby PM spots, our only regret was not having enough time off work to be there through the Chinook runs this year.
Phenomenal view from any of the three sliding glass doors off the back deck.

We thoroughly enjoyed the comfort of the place, and the river views. We observed the deer herd, turkeys, blue heron, other birds, and a couple of snakes on the hill below. It was a totally relaxing stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The setting is beautiful, the house is comfortable and well furnished and the hosts were terrific. We would definitely consider returning. It would be a wonderful place to go during the fall color season.
