Owner's Map of Beulah
We started fishing for Steelhead and Salmon over 20 years ago and fell in love with the Northwest corner of Michigan for fishing and for family trips to see the colors in the fall. Renting cabins worked for a while but having the perfect place to stay became an obsession. The Beulah Chalet was found on a fluke drive to a different fishing hole and the rest is history. My family and fishing friends have come to love the Chalet as the perfect get away for any season. I hope you will, too.
