This spot was absolutely gorgeous and everything was exactly as listed, no suprises whatsoever other than it was even prettier in person. The views are incredible, the spot is cozy and quiet, the house is well-stocked for all of your needs while there. We prefer to keep contact with the property manager minimum, we're pretty private, and that was not an issue at all here - we actually didn't get any response to our detailed checkout text to them, which we would have liked, but there were no issues. We were there during peak leaf season and the neighborhood was just gorgeous and we enjoyed the nearby hiking trails just a couple minutes down the street. If you're looking for a quiet, cozy, getaway, this is the spot - we recommend it! Oh, and it was very clean and smelled great, no mustiness, etc, which are two things that matter a great deal to me.
This is a lovely location. The cottage was spotless, well-appointed and vacationer friendly. Plenty of hooks, plugs and towels. Yes, the climb down to the beach is a challenge, but we all managed. There are also beautiful public beaches nearby. Sitting on the patio, in the sunroom or the living room, the views are spectacular. The fire pit area is a bonus, with wood and kindling ready to go. My whole family (ages 9 through 77) had a great time.
We rented this property for two nights as a base for golfing at Manistee and Arcadia and it was wonderful The view was awesome and the house was great ! The house is clean and everything worked great! Thank you so much for being a part of making our annual northern golf trek fun and non-stressful Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

This is a lovely house with a fantastic view. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean, and the house had everything we needed. Some things to note: none of the bedrooms have bathrooms in them, and this probably probably wouldn’t be good for those with small children. The cliff overlooking the lake is very steep and very high. We had a great time and would definitely recommend!
Impressive view, extremely relaxing and plenty of amenities. Highly recommended
Property was amazing. Great views. Very relaxing. We did ask if a grill was available. It was, but the tank was empty. We had to go into town to exchange it and pay for it ourselves when dinner was ready to go Friday night, not the start we wanted but no other issues. Some screen/slider doors were not easy to open. Small inconveniences though but wouldn't hesitate to come back.
We had a great stay for a weekend with my mother and my two adult daughters. The view was magnificent and the owners were very easy to work with.
The house we chose sleeps 13 people but allows only 4 vehicles on the property. I was told by Josh, our manager the first morning of our stay that I needed to move some of my family's vehicles. Apparently, there was overflow parking down the street that was not communicated to me prior to our stay. Also, the property boasted of a large hot tub that was the selling point for our stay and it was not in working order. We also had a neighbor that kept driving by real slow and gawking at us. Other than that, the property was real nice and clean with plenty of stocked up bath towels as well as toilet paper and paper towels and trash bags. The home was very clean and tidy!
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was clean. Bed was comfortable. The best part was the awesome view! I would definitely recommend, and would stay here again.
We had our family reunion here. The property was in great condition. The steeps were very steep and long so if you have old or very young people in your group getting down to the beach could be hard. The beds were very comfortable. And the house is maintained very well Would definitely rent it again.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Red Cottage! The view of Lake Michigan was gorgeous, and it was great that we could enjoy it from the hot tub. Everything was just as pictured and described; check-in and check-out were simple and straightforward; the bedrooms and living areas were clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!
Everything you need is there
We had a family get together weekend here and had a great time. There was plenty of space for us to spread out, and the views are amazing. There seemed to be some issues with the power when the hot tub was running but it occurred towards the end of our stay and the property manager was notified- it didn't impact our stay too much and we'd definitely consider staying here again in the future.
