Secluded family vacation

What a magical spot staying in this historic lodge. Fishing, swimming In the river, enjoying coffee on the dock and on the screened in porch were special. Watching the kayakers and canoeing competitors preparing for their upcoming race was such a treat. Beds were comfy, nice big dining table, sinks in bedrooms like the olden days, wide plank flooring, bead board, huge picture windows for enjoying the river view while chatting with family, an entire wall of games, puzzles and books make this the BEST multi generational family getaway.

Slice of country life

Charming ole fishing lodge with all of its charm and uniqueness still intact. I love the way you have tried to keep with the history of this place by keeping it as true to form with original locks, door handles, bathroom fixtures, feather pillows, ole box spring mattress ( which was the most comfy bed i think i have ever slept on), and the way you have it decorated. So beautiful. My family came up from the Ozarks to enjoy the beauty of Michigan and the area did not disappoint. Everyone was very impressed. Fishing, kayaking, motorcycling, camp fires, star gazing...we crammed a lot onto our vakay! Thank you Thunderbird Lodge. SORRY, it says add a photo however web page will not work so no picture).

River Paradise

Our group of friends had an a amazing weekend at the Thunderbird Lodge. The place was amazing and full of old time charm with lots of room to spread out and explore the grounds. The big picture windows and HUGE porch were a highlight of the trip to take in the peaceful sights and sounds of the river.
