Beautiful Cabin with Gorgeous Riverbend View. Great for fishing! Newly Renovated

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 Pentwater or Ludington. which both offer unique shops, waterfront vistas 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. 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.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a kitchen island.

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.

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.

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

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!

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)

Wow - this place is gorgeous. The cabin was so clean and had all the essentials and then some! It was so homey and cozy. The river was clean and easy to float down or just swim around. The deck was beautiful in the morning and had plenty of seating. We had to contact the host a few times and they were so quick to respond and professional. The side yard was perfect for our dogs to run around and you will see a variety of wildlife! We will certainly be back again :)

Perfect!

It really felt like a home instead of a rental. I believe the interior was much the same as when the owners grandparents lived there. I had to ask about the large rooster painting in the living room. Big deck was right on the riverbank. A relaxing and comfortable place and the owner was close by if we needed anything.

Place for a mental reset

Suffice to say that we will definitely visit this place again. We had such a great time just relaxing in the cabin and going for long walks in the forest. The cabin is very well maintained and clean with everything that you need. The best part is the beautiful river that flows alongside the property. We sat on the decks by the river for long hours in the morning with coffee and after dinner to spot glowworms. The hosts Dave and Sue are very responsive to questions. They also have a useful information handbook that was useful to us. The Internet is a little spotty, but this place deserves a visit to relax and not take work along. We spent just three nights and I do have this urge to go back and stay for much longer.
