We had an unfortunate breakdown and RJ came to the rescue. We pulled up with a boat and trailer and he knew exactly what I needed before I said it. He had us back on the road and to fishing in 30 minutes. He saved our trip and assured us we were good to go and would be fine. Here I am a day later and we made it home. Highly recommend this company.

A very good deep water marina. They can put any boat in the water. Another good thing to remember they are the only gas available on the water between the Soo and Drummond Island. I would definitely recommend using them.

My friends and I have come up to Riverview a few times now for duck hunting and fishing in nearby SSM when the pink salmon run. The cabins are kinda run down and poorly laid out. I noticed our floor in cabin 1 this weekend had some "soft spots". There were hunks of paper towel stuck in the windows because i guess the screens don't fit right. If you're 4'3" tall, you'll really love the shower.They supply some BASIC kithen gear...but you should bring your own cutlery and if you want to make a big pot of chili for your group, bring your own pots/pans. We stayed Thursday thru Sunday and the owners

This place was not what we expected. We thought we were getting a cabin or bunkhouse as they called it. Show up to a single wide trailer with grass above my knees. Owner started cutting the grass as we were unpacking. Get inside and there are dead bugs/spiders between the window panes and dead flies/mosquitoes on the curtains.
Went to get some water and the pressure was horrible. They said they would come fix it, and they never did. We ended up fixing it ourselves and it was still bad. Went to take a shower, it's a very small stall shower. The water pressure in there was horrible as well. The

We rented the pontoon boat. The boat was in good condition and the rental was a good value. We went up and down the channels and around the islands. We really enjoyed the time out on the water. The owner let us look at one of the cabins and it was nice enough that we've added it to our short list of places to stay next summer. The owner also sold us some fresh eggs from her chickens. Overall 5 stars!

This is a great place to get away and enjoy the UP. Right on the water, watch Lakers go by, fish, or rent a boat and explore the St. Mary's River.
