Riverside Memory-Maker!

River Haven is an all season, Up North getaway suited for family adventures and romantic retreats alike. With over 200’ of beautiful Black River frontage, this is a recreational and nature lovers escape.

- The deck is THE perfect place to kick off the day with your cup of coffee or reflect on a full day of activities with your favorite beverage. Several play areas, grill station, riverside fire pit, add to the on-site enjoyment. Plenty of gear storage and extra fridge in the garage for beverages and grillables.

High School Best Friends
Our group of high school friends had the most amazing time at this property! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook & never leave the house! There is so much seating that we never felt like we weren't all together. We took advantage of the 4 kayaks w/ trailer, the fire pit, as well as the board games. This was one of the only VRBO properties we have stayed at that felt like items were purchased FOR the home, not pieced together from what the owners had leftover from their primary home. We have discussed renting again in the future! Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful property!

Beautiful setting, great amenities
Very tranquil on the river, quiet and relatively bug free somehow! Great to have a riverside setting to chill, nice deck and grill to use. Kayaks were a hit, especially with the use of the trailer to put in upriver. WiFi was strong and kitchen was well stocked. Comfy beds and the little cabin was a great bonus to have.

Guys trip
What an absolutely beautiful house to stay at! Had full access to the garage which was very nice and what a beautiful back yard to sit down with friends at the end of the day to have some good laughs and a bonfire in. Would recommend this house to anyone traveling to Michigan!

Labor Day Weekend Retreat
This was a perfect location for Labor Day Weekend. The kids had fun kayaking on the river. While it would have been nice if there were enough kayaks for 8 people, we filled our days with excursions to nearby locations. The fire pit was nice and large and we enjoyed bonfires each evening. Would definitely stay again in the future. Thanks for being responsive, Wendy was a great host!

Lovely vacation spot
We had an extended family group staying at the house and also used the small cabin for 3 nights. The house had everything we needed for cooking, roasting marshmallows and looking for shooting stars. It was a convenient place to end one short kayak trip and as a jumping off point for another. We made all our meals on site and found the kitchen spacious and well appointed. We visited Alpena, the Presque Isle lighthouses, Long Lake, and Sault Ste Marie for our lake freighter fans. Great place for a vacation!

Exceptional location
Love at first sight! This property is fun! Thank you, Wendy, for supplying kayaks for our family. The trips down the river were fabulous. Burt Lake and Onaway State parks, golf, Mackinac Island, Ocqueoc Falls and ATV riding were just some of the day trips we enjoyed. Lots to enjoy at this property and beyond.
