Rented a Pontoon and it was very well maintained. Owners were very nice and provided great service. Boats are new and hold 10 people very comfortably. If you’re on Chetac or Birch lake they’ll let you take over night, it worked perfect.
My wife and I started going to Echo bay 20 years ago with our kids and other family. Sine 2015 it has been just my wife and I. Love everything about this resort. Rob and Diane are absolutely amazing ppl.
AMAZING place. We've been going here for 4 years now ice fishing. The cabins are fantastic for our group. It fits us VERY well. We love coming back here every year. Owners are super nice!!!
Our family stayed here for a week. Cabin was clean and very nice. Cabin nestled in the trees with a very nice view of the lake. Newer boats that work very well. Hydro bikes for the children. Owners are very friendly and hospitable. A great destination for a family vacation. Would definitely like to go back for another week.
I've stayed here for a week at a time. Every year for at least 5 maybe 6 years and it's great every time! I've tried other places but this is the one I keep coming back to, the owners are great people and always a great time at the lake , clean cabins , house to clean fish is also always clean and the whole place is very well maintained. Plenty of docks and a nice bay, beautiful scenery right from the cabin , watch Blue Herons and Geese and ducks right from the deck, I even saw an otter this last time there also Loons singing at nightfall. Never any regrets from going here. Playground for kids is nice and there is paddle boats and also water bikes , fun for all ages! Oh and the fishing is awesome always too! This place has it all !
It's was nice Resort and friendly and quiet good fishing .
We've stayed here at least 4 different times and enjoyed it each time. The cabins are always very clean and they have adequate kitchen utensils for most things you would want to cook. Be sure to bring your own towels and soap, because while they don't offer those amenities, we feel the price more than makes up for it! It may not be extra fancy, but we really enjoy it!
Our cabin was great. The owners were wonderful. A severe storm was coming through and they made sure we were aware. They had a safe place we could go if the weather was to bad. Luckily we didn't need to use it, but it was reassuring we knew where to go if we needed to. Somehow I managed to leave a small package there. I called and asked about what I left and she offered to send it to me. I really appreciated that. The owners definetly went above and beyond. They also have pontoon rentals Ours was new and was great. Loved being able to rent the pontoon. I would highly recommed this resort to anyone.
