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

Riverbend Cabin sits on a gorgeous bend in the Big South Branch of the Pere Marquette River. An open floor plan with expansive views of the river and a large deck to sit and enjoy the view. It has all the amenities that you will need!

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.

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.

Relaxing Vacation

Weekend hunting

This was the 2nd time we stayed at this VRBO, great location, close to lots of public land and the pm river. We spent a weekend archery hunting and cooking up some great meals. Communication was good, great property! I could sit on the back deck and listen to the river every day. Everything was smooth with no issues. Would gladly stay again.

The Branch

We had a great time floating the nearby rivers. We did a nice kayak through Baldwin. Brads barbecue just a few miles away on Saturday only was a very nice surprise. Great barbecue. Dave and Sue keep very good care of their property. Beautiful and well stocked with everything you’d need.

This home is very beautiful! How could you go wrong with a home off the beaten path?! You can sit on the deck and listen to the creek below. We saw tons of deer and Turkey ! The location of the fire pit was perfect. It was just a great home ! I would definitely stay there again.

River house

We had a very nice stay. Dave was easy to communicate with, let us check in a little early. The view of the river was gorgeous! Wish the weather was a little warmer. We did go kayaking down the river and that was so much fun! House had everything we needed. Felt like home. We will be back!

Best Getaway Ever!

Great place, isolated from the touristy places that are nearby. We met the owners one morning and they were very welcoming, They gave us recommendations based on the things we were interested in. Neighbors staying in their other house were close, but friendly. Although we shared some common area at the river’s edge, we had plenty of privacy as well. The house offered everything in the listing and more. I especially loved that dogs were allowed but there was no residual signs of dogs being there. Very clean!!

A slice of heaven

We wish we had more time here. The views and the vibe around the property were incredible. Sitting out and watching the river everyday was incredible and what really struck me was the silence and peace and serenity of the area. The only thing you really heard was the trickle of the water and birds. The inside of the cabin was exactly the vibes you would expect from a cabin but with a bunch of interesting old fashion artifacts. Thera a bunch of day trips you can do from the cabin. But expect to drive to get to civilization we stopped for groceries before we got there. It wa a really a special few days

Relaxing getaway on the River

We enjoyed our stay, the location is easy to get to and the house is nice. The back porch overlooking the river was a nice plus every morning having coffee. The water current was pretty strong in our area so it made it difficult to play/relax in the water. But kayaks would be perfect for this location. We visited the pizza/corner store for dinner, limited selection but odds and ends to get by. We went to School section lake which is about 3 miles away to swim the beach and play (amazing and warm) overall a great experience and we would book again! *there is a rental next door which is owned by the same couple, you share a staircase to the river (no issues) but if you needed more of a group stay these two places would be perfect)
