About the host

Hosted by Dave Nielsen

Host profile image
I was involved in the marking, janitorial and packaging business for over 36 years and sold my packaging businesses in 2018. My wife, Sue, and I live up here adjacent to this property to the north. We love the outdoors, traveling and our family and grandkids.

Why they chose this property

We chose to purchase this property to keep it in the family. My dad and his brother built the original cabin in the early 1960's. It has been added onto 2 different times since then. We love this area because it is quiet, peaceful with no traffic or city noise and we love all of our wildlife in this area. We have deer, turkey's, eagles, blue herons and alot of birds. We enjoy the ever-changing views of the river and woodlands.

What makes this property unique

Enjoying the views of the river, which you can not do with new construction any longer because this section of the Big South Branch of the Pere Marquette River is designated as a National Blue Ribbon Trout Stream and Natural River. Open fishing all year. The quiet relaxation you feel while here. Literally sitting on the deck feels like sitting on the banks of the river you are so close!!
