I will no longer be spending money in the Manistee. I will no longer travel down rivers that require government permits. The Pine River and all the liveries are in bed with the politicians when it comes to getting permits for a river. You better get your permits six months in advance! Even then you may not get one.

Lots of information available. Helpful people. Unfortunately, I arrived at lunch time and wasn’t able to get what I needed bc the person that handles it was out to lunch. Not a problem (for me. I’ll return).

Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The inside of the building is closed to visitors but business can still be conducted there. Got my park pass and additional information on National parks/forests.
