About this house rental
Rock River Retreat is a quiet countryside escape located in Eben Junction, Michigan, perfectly situated between Munising/Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Marquette — both about 20 miles away. This central location makes it an ideal home base for exploring waterfalls, hiking trails, Lake Superior beaches, and the natural beauty of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
The home sits on 18 acres of open land with a small river flowing through the property, creating a peaceful setting where guests can relax, watch wildlife, and enjoy the sounds of nature. In the spring the river runs quickly with snowmelt, while in summer it slows to a gentle stream. A small bridge crosses the river and leads to open fields perfect for exploring and enjoying the outdoors.
Guests love the quiet privacy and wide open spaces, with plenty of room for walking, yard games, and relaxing on the swing while taking in the natural surroundings.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Rock River Retreat was awesome! We visited in mid-August. The location is great, an easy drive to Munising and Marquette. We loved the mowed paths on the property and the huge mowed lawn as well as the fire pit. The co-op in Chatham has the essentials and Mama Cows is close by for ice cream. Au Train beach is an easy 20 minute drive as well. The house is older but has that at home feel, like grandmas old house and it had everything we needed. There are 3 bedrooms on the main level and one in the basement. Would definitely visit again if we’re in this area of the UP.

It was a very nice day the only problem we had was with the toilet. The handle to flush did not work all the time and we Had to open up the back to manually flush it.
