We had visited after/during quite a bit of rain and the river was higher than typical, but we still enjoyed fishing and the view. This house is in a great location, close enough to easily visit the town of Pentwater, Ludington, and Silver Lakes Sand dunes. The house was clean, and nicely kept. It was a good place for kids to enjoy too :) the stairs to the basement were a little steep for our 4 year old, but once he got used to them it was no problem. ##### Heather W.
