Pere Marquette River Lodge & Outfitter sits within the heart of the Huron-Manistee National Forest. We are surrounded by more than 200,000 acres of forests, inland lakes, and trails nearly 380 miles of federally designated National Wild & Scenic River watershed including 69.4 miles on the main branch of the Pere Marquette. The river is renowned for its trophy brown trout and seasonal runs of migratory steelhead and salmon.

Our lodge enjoys prime frontage on the famous Flies-Only, No-Kill section of the upper fly water along the main branch of the Pere Marquette River - an undammed, crystal-clear, spring-fed river with a remarkable place in American fly-fishing history. In 1884, it became the site of America’s first introduction of brown trout. Today, the Pere Marquette remains one of the country’s premier wild trout and migratory fish rivers, flowing through a landscape that feels as timeless as the river itself.
