Perfect place for our family gathering. So much to do .. Kayaking, fishing, water lounging, wildlife viewing... We didn't leave the property for a week! ##### leeza p.

It was spotless. The bedrooms were great. The whole house and bunkroom were super - lots of space inside and out. It has great ammenities and a beautiful location on the river. It was still chilly so we were not able to use the boats on the river but hopefully someday! ##### Kathleen W. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Georgianna M. 7 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Weekend Getaway for Two Families We had an amazing long weekend (Friday to Monday) with two families, a total of 11 people. The property was spacious, allowing everyone to have their own space and privacy, but also had great gathering areas for us to enjoy meals and hang out together. The bunk house with the game room was a huge hit with the kids. They loved having their own area and the four full-size bunk beds were perfect for everyone.Access to the river was fantastic—having multiple kayaks, paddle boats, fishing gear, floaties, and two grills meant we had everything we needed. We barely left the property, as there was so much to do right there.A couple of small cons to mention: there weren’t enough dishes, cups, or silverware in the main house for all 11 of us, so we had to get creative during mealtime. Also, some of the water equipment lost air, and there wasn't an air pump available to refill them. But honestly, these were minor setbacks in what was otherwise a fantastic weekend.The best part? Even though it’s just 1.5 hours from the Detroit area, it felt like we were miles away in the north. We’ve already told several people about this place and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a0c49b43-4762-48df-abaa-e1ad00580b8f-1751891896790.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/10f9f414-8530-48c9-bfd0-b3351b162832-1751891896757.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Main house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/34fdbab2-2b05-474f-bc7f-7cd6aca8f85e-1751891930496.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Georgianna M.
