Relax on Lake Michigan in our 2016 updated lakefront home on Lake Michigan which offers a private, shallow beach along with the following:
- 2500 sf 2-story home with 1.5 kitchens, 2 family rooms, 4 bedrooms and 2 baths INCLUDES a detached rustic camping cabin with a king bed and 3rd bathroom (unavailable in winter months due to no heat in cabin).
- The property is surrounded by trees yet so close to the beach you will be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves.
SECOND LEVEL- 2 beds
- Enjoy gathering in the spacious, new great room with leather seating facing a 55" flat screen tv, dining area and a kitchen, all with views of the lake. The kitchen within the great room has 2 granite islands with stools and new stainless steel appliances. The dining table for 8 is adjacent to sliders to the deck.
- 1 King bedroom is adjacent to the updated bathroom with marble shower.
- The sun room with a panoramic view of the lake is right off of the great room and has a queen pullout.
FIRST LEVEL - 5 beds
- This floor has 3 bedrooms, a full bath with laundry facilities, a mini-kitchen with sink, refrigerator and microwave, and a family room facing the lake with a 2nd 55" tv. There is also an alcove with a 2-twin bed trundle.
NOTE: Inside access between the 2 floors is a CIRCULAR STAIRCASE. Traditional staircase is located outside.
VERY RUSTIC CABIN: 5th BEDROOM/3RD BATH: Original 1940's pine cottage located next to the main home is a step up from sleeping outside. It consists of a sleeping room with a king bed, a separate bath (shower stall) and is perfect for family members who want added privacy WITHOUT FRILLS. (can be musty smelling and is not available in the winter months due to no heat or water).

Caberfae ski slopes are also nearby, as are many snowmobiling and hiking trails.
No smoking, please. Dogs welcome for an additional fee. Please inquire.
We are so fortunate to have found and enjoyed this lake front property. It has everything and more than we needed to elevate our experience. In fact we knew the moment we walked in we wanted to extend our stay so we did. The structure obviously has some age but what a gem and the owners have ensured all the creature comforts are high end and plenty. We loved the great room with high ceilings, the two islands in the kitchen / bar and all the great gathering spaces outdoors for catching those amazing sunsets. Great space for large group.
We had never been to a great lake and we stumbled upon this listing , the house was nice , the location is a quaint little town and the owner is awesome . If we come back to michigan we will stay here again.
This property has many restrictions and an odd set up. Although pets are allowed there is a fee and deposit which is fair and understandable. However, what was unfair was to charge a cleaning fee and state our dogs have fleas. Our 4 dogs have never had fleas, not now, and not at this rental. They are on flea and tick year round and just had their monthly preventative medication. This house is also hard to get into, (need to carry supplies up to upper level) old (with a mildew smell) and and has a dampness to it with frigid cold lower floor. We were disappointed.
This was our second time staying here over the Christmas holiday. The house very easily fit four adults, two seniors, and two teens. The spacious kitchen was great for cooking large meals, and the dining area fit us all comfortably. There is plenty of space in the house for everyone. We look forward to going back. The host was attentive, a great communicator and very helpful. We especially appreciated the extra attention she gave us during the huge snow storm that blew through. We are looking forward to going back!
The fruit flies were excessive. The location is great.
We enjoyed our family get away for a long holiday weekend. The layout of the house worked great with separate bedrooms for all and a great room for hanging out when not at the beach.
We had an amazing time! The house was everything we could have hoped for and the view was amazing. Great location, close to downtown Manistee and any stores we needed. Would definitely stay here again! Lisa was great to work with and always answered any questions I had right away!
Beautiful House right on the beach. Close to downtown. Had the best time
Our family (4 kids and 6 adults) had a wonderful week on the beach! The house is very nice and was roomy enough for three families, and the beach was beautiful with lots of sand for the kids and shallow warm water to swim in. We hope to come back next year!
Location was awesome, was able to watch the sunset most nights. Everything was as advertised, most everything you needed for your stay. House to the north was a little close, the family had many loud arguments but that was probably a one off situation. Hi Ouse was close to shopping and Manistee. Had a great time
Had no idea there was a house directly next door. Probably wouldn’t have rented if I would’ve known. Grass was very long. Water is extremely hard which plugged the shower fixtures which resulted in very low water pressure. Trash was left in closet down stairs. Paid 200 extra for linen fee, only revived one towel per guest and one of the beds didn’t have a fitted sheet. Lovely beach and plenty of room inside the house. 3/5 stars.
