Welcome to “Mani Bay Chalet”. This excellent Manitowish Waters cabin has been furnished to a great standard. It’s the ideal retreat for a water-bound & adventure-filled stay, located on the Manitowish River between Rest and Stone lakes. We believe it’s the ultimate location to experience the area the way it should be. Get ready to get inspired! Settle in by zoning out with the whole family in a professionally cleaned home while you gaze over “Oxbow Bay.”
Unfiltered fun for everyone!

This property is amazing all year round for a visit to the lakes.

The Manitowish Waters Chain O Lakes is an enjoyable trek for quiet water canoeists and kayakers. From its origin at
High Lake, the river flows for nearly 44 miles before joining with the Bear River to form the North Fork of the Flambeau River. The 20-mile section featured in this guide is nestled in the northwest corner of the 232,000-acre Northern Highlands-American Legion State Forest. Paddlers will find mostly flatwater with occasional riffles as you glide by open marsh and lush, northern lowland forest. A large number of sloughs provide excellent opportunities for exploration
and bird watching. One of the state's more popular canoe camping rivers is the river, with seven overnight camp areas spread out between Circle Lily Creek and the Bear River confluence.

The frequent wide-open spaces of the marshlands immediately surrounding the river make bird watching easy. Warblers, sparrows, finches, thrush, woodpeckers, wood ducks, and hooded mergansers, are just a few of the species that inhabit the riverway in summer. Eagles are also common; you’ll occasionally see one of their massive nests in a tall pine near the river. Beaver and otter are often spotted, and you’ll sometimes see: fisher, white-tailed deer, raccoon, red squirrel, and the occasional black bear. Our “Mani Bay Chalet” includes a sloped pursuit to the water where kids can play.

Manitowish Waters has a ten lake chain with several restaurants on the waters, free water
skiing shows, and concerts on the water.
Loads to do for all tastes, from outdoor adventures for local explorers to total isolation for those
who prefer the homely and the comfy!

Self-check-in with smart lock access

    This is a perfect Northwoods retreat for any family. We love the cabin, it has plenty of space and all of the extras anyone would need for a great trip. Our teenage boys love the fire pit and the kayaks/paddleboats. We all loved the new pontoon and spent most of our days out on the lake. All in all, this is a wonderful spot!

    We had a great stay. Beautiful home. Decor full north woods. Very clean. Jake was available and was concerned about our needs. Pontoon a difference maker. Only issue was sporadic internet which impeded emails and televisions in the evening. Great property. Great host

    We loved our week at the Lake! The house was comfortable. The recreation equipment that is provided is such a bonus to be able to enjoy the lake. We brought our bikes and enjoyed the paved trails and mountain bike trails. Jake was great work with! We hope to return again!

    The property was great. The home was just as the listing stated. The lot is wide and level which was perfect for getting down to the boat as well as having some privacy. The screened-in sitting area was fantastic for game nights before finishing up at the firepit. We had a really nice time.

    This place has it all-- Top notch accommodations, peaceful setting, great views, varied amenities, responsive host and much more. My husband & I needed a relaxing vacation & that is exactly what we got! Manitowish Waters has been our Happy Place for over 40 years and the restaurants, bike trails, navigable chain of lakes, natural beauty, etc. are unparalleled anywhere. Yes, I'm biased, but it's true. We will be back.
