Frank and Kerry are very gracious hosts! The Brooke is an amazing place! I didn’t know fly fishing was a bucket list item for some people. I was just there to chill away from home. But I can now say that I added and checked off fly fishing on that list. Thanks new friends

Perfect fly fishing retreat!

The log cottage was quaint and cozy, the lot full of trees and wildlife, and the riverside location was so lovely. Great flyfishing wading in the holy waters. Frank was a dynamite host, super caring, friendly, and conscientious. We loved everything about the stay!

great spot on the river

My dad and I stayed for a couple days at the Brookie cabin. Was a superb spot for us to home-base out of while we fished the Au Sable. Cabin was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities one would need for a fishing getaway. I even caught a fish out n front of the cabin with my grandfathers antique fly rod set up.

Fantastic place on the river

We had a wonderful stay. It was perfect for our fly fishing getaway. Frank was a wonderful host. Very accommodating for our early check-in. Communication was great. Frank showed us all around his beautiful property and had us over for a glass of wine. We really enjoyed our weekend and the cabin is very cute snd quaint. Would not hesitate to recommend or stay again!

Best Place Ever

The place was more than we expected. The cabin we stayed in was amazing, cozy and very comfortable. It had every thing we could need or want. The screened in back porch was the highlight. We had 2 beautiful kayak trips. We saw lots of wildlife, with the highlight being a Bald Eagle up close! Great hosts! Overall great experience.
