A lovely and comfortable house with spectacular views of the Lake and a deluxe private beach. Our family of five enjoyed a wonderful week here. It's only a few minutes south of Manistee where there are several nice restaurants and interesting shops, and about a half hour north of Ludington where there are even more restaurants and shops. Also, lots of hiking, kayaking, and biking in the area. We would definitely like to come back here again.
We had a wonderful stay at this house on Lake Michigan. This house is very clean and offered plenty of room for our family. Beds are very comfortable. We did not use the lower bedroom as we only has 6 people. The views from the house overlooking Lake Michigan were amazing. Highlights for our stay were the beach, fires in the beach fire pit with s'mores and the beautiful sunsets. We had the beach to ourself the way the beach is set up. Manistee is not that far for a dinner out. Our most enjoyable meals were on the porch overlooking Lake Michigan. High quality barbeque grill with utensils for grilling meals. Kitchen, bathrooms and house was stocked with everything we needed. Bring your own beach towels. Steve was very communicative and answered all our questions immediately. We will be back to this gem on the lake.
Beautiful house and private beach, great kitchen setup. The owner obviously takes great pride in the property. Our three-generation group had an amazing time. If there was one negative it would be that there weren’t very many shops in downtown Manistee, and most of the extra activities we were interested in doing were 30-60 minutes away. But all in all a wonderful time was had by all!
This home is outstanding. The owners are very welcoming and easy to communicate with. Check in and out was very easy. The view is amazing and the private beach was perfect in every way. The owners provide everything you could need-beach towels, chairs, toys, and even stuff to make s’mores on the beach campfire. It is a quick drive to Manistee for groceries, shopping or to pick up dinner There’s also a grill and anything you need to do cooking at home All in all, everything was perfect and we will definitely be back next year!
The house was clean and spacious and fully stocked with everything we needed. The owners were quick to respond to any questions and very helpful getting us settled in. The views are amazing and the beach was only a few stairs down from the dune. We had a wonderful week and would definitely stay here again.
The views are amazing. This property is beautiful, quiet and relaxing. The home is great and very comfortable. We will definitely book this home again. The owner is really helpful and nice.
We had a great time we had great views of beautiful sunsets. We also visited Luddington and Sleeping Bear Dunes which were a reasonable drive away. The house had great views of Lake Michigan and was well furnished with everything we needed.
Thank you for providing a warm and welcome home. Everything was excellent
We had a wonderful stay at Stephen's home and he was a very responsive host. The beach is private and fabulous; a stairway down from the house. The house and kitchen are well stocked with all household needs. We had two children under 6 with us and 6 adults-the home handled our group fabulously with space and comfortable places to hang out when not at the beach. The sunsets are not to be missed and we enjoyed the beach daily. It's a short trip into town for lunch/dinner out which we took advantage of. 5th ave beach and lighthouse is just past town, and the tour of the Milwaukee ship was a favorite outing! Overall, a wonderful stay-we will come back!
It was nice to be welcomed by Steve and Sandy and the welcome basket was much appreciated. The house is awesome with lovely decor and very welcoming. We felt right at home. The house has everything you could need and is well stocked. The outdoor grill is great and we used it quite a bit. There are about a dozen steps or so down to the beach that are sturdy and easy to use to get to a great beach area with plenty of beach chairs, toys and a fire pit area where we had some beach fires and watch some awesome awesome sunsets. We had a couple of days with easy beach access to the water and then some days when the wind shifted and the sand disappeared and the underlying rocks were too big for our small children to navigate. On those days we just took the short walk to the association beach and played and swam there. The kiddos also enjoyed the playground there. The Manistee area has many great restaurants, playgrounds and shops. We didn’t go into town much because we were so happy at the place. We have already reserved again for next year. Thank you Steve and Sandy for sharing your awesome home with us. We look forward to coming back again next year.
Our family of nine, age ranges of 76-8 years old, had a fantastic time staying at this property! The house is beautiful and the kitchen is well appointed for those who like to cook (which we did all but 2 days). The bluff offers fabulous views of the lake and sunsets, while the kids enjoyed swimming and kayaking off the beach. The house is about a 10-15 minute drive into the quaint downtown with several good restaurants, grocery stores and nice public beaches. Our family has several gluten-free folks and we were able to get good GF pizza from AJ's Pizzeria, GF sandwiches from TJs Pub, and GF ice cream from Dowtown Delights. The hosts are wonderful and I would highly recommend staying at this home. In fact, I imagine our family will be back again! Thanks Steve and Sandy for sharing your home with us!
The house was beautiful, clean, well appointed, and bigger than expected. Being right on the beach was amazing, and we enjoyed many beautiful sunsets. There are several beach chairs and outdoor toys and games available, which we appreciated. Cell phone reception was spotty, so you should make sure you have other means to communicate with people. There are a few items I was surprised by, that I thought I would share for others to be aware of. First, there are a number of steps to get from the parking area to the main floor of the house. This was challenging for my mother. Likewise, the listing mentions a low bluff, but there were no pictures of the stairs required to access the beach, and it was higher than I anticipated. Second, the bedroom with two twin beds is not actually a bedroom. It is a room adjacent to the garage with no door to the interior that can be shut for privacy/noise blockage. This worked out fine in our situation, as we had two teenagers in the room, but I would have been upset if I was expecting to put two smaller children in that room, as there is one exterior door plus the door to the garage in the space, and they are two floors away from adults. Third, the neighbors do not like that this is a rental house and we felt like we were under surveillance any time we were outside. The kids didn't want to go play basketball for fear they would be questioned about their presence. Overall we really enjoyed the house and our stay.
The house was great. We found everything we were looking for. The beach was big and sandy. I found Petoskey stones and sea glass. The balcony was a great place to view sunsets ?
