River Retreat
Brett and Alice are a great team. The cabin is always clean and well maintained. Fishing the river yields 3-5 pound bass regularly. Nice quiet neighborhood with good neighbors. The surrounding area is great for exploring. Would recommend this property to anyone.

Had the greatest time
First and foremost Brett was incredibly helpful. His knowledge of the river was very helpful for a great boating and fishing experience. Was reliable for any questions we had. The cottage itself was clean and comfortable. Very well stocked kichen. Wonderfully peaceful area. Pontoon boat was in great condition. Will book again! Thank you Brett for your warm hospitality! Exactly the break we needed!

Great Vacation
My family and two dogs enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Cottage was clean and well stocked with all the necessities. Brett was a very hospitable host, always helpful and available if needed. The cottage is also in a great location with beautiful sunsets. We rented a pontoon during our stay and we had a great time fishing everyday. Very happy with our stay and looking forward to next year!

WONDERFUL
Brett is an awesome host. He guided our son on the operation of the pontoon boat. Brett was available whenever needed. The cottage is very nice and the location is wonderful. Neighbors around but very quiet and relaxing. Our dogs also had a wonderful time. Thank you Brett for helping us create some wonderful memories.

Great time on the River
The property was as we expected. Kids loved going to the dock to fish. Close to towns but away from tourists. Very relaxing. Wonderful neighborhood. Brett and the neighbor's made us feel at home while on vacation. Alice is a treasure.

Classic camp on the river
We had an idyllic week at this traditional camp on the river. Check in and out couldn't have been easier. Brett, among with wonderful neighbors Denise and Alice, were very helpful, easily accessible, and always there to help. The location is wonderful; Chippewa Bay is picturesque and you're right on the river if you want to strike out for Abay. The boating, fishing and sunsets were exceptional. The outdoor deck was our favorite for grilling and chilling. It is a camp; we had to work out a couple kinks on the first day (you can't run both window AC's at once or the power blows, the oven pilot light has to be manually lit, and you can, but probably don't want to, drink the water due to taste/high iron content so stock up on bottled.) However, we had a GREAT WEEK. The camp is cozy and beds were comfy. We also rented a pontoon boat from Brett and really enjoyed boating over to Cedar Island State Park, a short few minutes away, where you can rent dock space for a small fee and use it all day. We swam off the pontoon boat as well. It was a great add to the week! Everyone in the neighborhood was so nice. We've rented places before that were nice but the neighbors were not, and that can ruin a vacation. Well, the neighbors here were WONDERFUL. Brett brought us fresh fish he'd caught, and Denise/Alice were always available with the golf cart if needed or with help of any sort. It's a lovely little community. We would definitely recommend/book again.
