It doesn’t seem right to only give five stars. I’d give so many more if I could.

My favorite place to stay in Michigan. If I didn't have responsibilities I would spend 60 days a year here. Wonderful food, fishing, location, fire pit, people. Thank you, Josh and crew!! Never change.

I cannot say enough about Josh and his staff. Denny and Matt were always eager and helpful. Josh had a plan for us every day that we fished. We booked a float trip. Our guide was Jordan. He did a fantastic job. The restaurant was excellent. The fly shop well stocked. I cannot wait to book for next year.
