About this property

Rustic Hook Lodge, Steelhead Suite

The Rustic Hook Lodge is a four‑season duplex nestled on 2.5 peaceful acres. The Steelhead Suite occupies the right half of the lodge and offers a comfortable 2‑bedroom, 2‑bath layout with a fully stocked kitchen. One-bedroom features two queen beds, while the second bedroom includes a twin bunk bed and a full bunk bed—perfect for families or groups.

Guests enjoy a large parking area, reliable Wi‑Fi, and unbeatable access to outdoor adventure. The lodge sits just half a mile from 500 miles of ATV and snowmobile trails, and its minutes from world‑class salmon and trout fishing near Tippy Dam on the Manistee River. Kayaking on the Pine River, plus nearby hiking, biking, and winter ski trails, make this a true year‑round destination.

For larger groups, the entire Rustic Hook Duplex can be rented by reserving the Rustic Hook Lodge. The full lodge includes 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 12 total beds, and two complete kitchens.
