About this property

Ruby Creek Guesthouse Retreat-Pere Marquette River.

On the Pere Marquette River! Located in Branch, this 1-bedroom garage cabin / in-law suite offers a cozy retreat for four guests. The bedroom area with a queen bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean and well-maintained. There is a 50" TV and leather couch with a full/queen pull out bed. A well-stocked full kitchen and bar stool area overlooking the beautiful outdoors. Relax in the peaceful surroundings around the fire pit along the river and enjoy the gorgeous views from the property. Camp firewood is available for purchase. We include use of our kayaks and floatation devices. Put in up river at the Anthony Bridge or Ruby Creek Bridge and float to the cabin or spot a car at the Hawley Bridge and start at the cabin and float down river to your car. We look forward to hosting you at our oasis. The main cabin is occupied by the owners but that will not affect your stay or enjoyment. We do have two cameras on site but they are aimed away from visitors living quarters.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
