Perfect fly fishing retreat!

The log cottage was quaint and cozy, the lot full of trees and wildlife, and the riverside location was so lovely. Great flyfishing wading in the holy waters. Frank was a dynamite host, super caring, friendly, and conscientious. We loved everything about the stay!

great spot on the river

My dad and I stayed for a couple days at the Brookie cabin. Was a superb spot for us to home-base out of while we fished the Au Sable. Cabin was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities one would need for a fishing getaway. I even caught a fish out n front of the cabin with my grandfathers antique fly rod set up.

Best Place Ever

The place was more than we expected. The cabin we stayed in was amazing, cozy and very comfortable. It had every thing we could need or want. The screened in back porch was the highlight. We had 2 beautiful kayak trips. We saw lots of wildlife, with the highlight being a Bald Eagle up close! Great hosts! Overall great experience.

Fly fishing enthusiast utopia

Beautiful little rustic, but with all the modern conveniences, cabin. Just feet from the main stream of the AuSable River and very private. We enjoyed a fantastic five day stay and spent hours and hours lounging on the generous river side deck and the attached screened in porch that was available for use. We'll look forward to a return trip at our earliest convenience!

Better than we could have ever dreamed. Accommodations were incredible. In the morning, we sat on the porch and watched the water. We enjoyed the cabin, the trout pond, the fishing, and even the tree lined drive in. Thank you Frank and Kerry! It won’t be our last visit!!
