Your Northern Michigan basecamp

A lodge built around the water.

Pere Marquette River Lodge sits in the heart of Lake County, surrounded by more than 200,000 acres of Manistee National Forest, inland lakes, trails, and wild rivers.

Our property enjoys prime frontage on the famous Flies Only, No Kill section of the Pere Marquette—an undammed National Scenic River and one of America’s first brown trout waters.
