Pere Marquette River Lodge & Outfitter

FreshwaterBaldwin, Huron-Manistee National Forest — Pere Marquette River, main branch

Near Baldwin, Michigan, this lodge, guide service and fly shop fronts the upper Pere Marquette, where the water is flies-only and no-kill. Each guided day is for two anglers, fishing for brown trout or the steelhead and salmon that run the river. Guests cook for themselves in a 10-room lodge, five cabins from the logging era or a house on the river, and the business has been under new management since 2026.
