Manistee, Michigan
*VRBO's "5 minute drive to beach" description is inaccurate! Secluded beach access is literally right across the street!*
Enjoy Lake Michigan water views in this sweet cozy cottage with a secluded stretch of sandy beach right across the street! Quiet, wooded, residential area, just 3 miles to downtown Manistee. This is our family's cottage that we share. Enjoy what we enjoy: well stocked kitchen, quality linens, comfortable furniture, but no personal clutter (everything is kept clear and open for your use). Enclosed sitting room with lake view, open floor plan living/ dining with electric fireplace. High speed internet, no cable TV. Lake view deck and fire pit. Beach cart for your beach supplies, charcoal grill. No wake shallow inland lake (Bar Lake) just around the corner, perfect for kayaking. *Please note: Property is not on Lake Michigan, it is across the street. The view is generous but partial. Portable air conditioner only. Cottage is not baby proofed. Accessibility: two small steps to enter home; washer and dryer are in basement. Beach across street has a small bluff without stairs.
This cottage was cozy, but it also had little details that made the stay even more comfortable. I will definitely stay here again!
We really enjoyed our stay at Laurie and Trevors place, the house was as described, clean with great views. Host were very responsive, and I recieved all my information about the property days before we arrived. Manistee is a great little town, with lots to do and plenty of beaches. We would definitely stay again.
Trevor and Laurie advertise their home honestly and everything was exactly as they described it. The firepit and lake views were lovely to enjoy, and they were very communicative.
We had a great week at the house! Close to many beaches and about an hour from Sleeping Bear Dunes. My daughter and niece loved waking up and going to search for beach glass. Would definitely stay again.
The home was very nicely decorated and furnished. We had everything that we needed. The hosts were helpful. The side porch was a perfect spot to enjoy nature, read a book and have a snack. Our only disappointment was that most of the Lake MI access nearby was closed due to the high lake levels. We had not realized that until after we booked. The beach in town was great. We would book this home again when the lake levels are lower. Thank you for a wonderful getaway.
We had a great time staying here. Close walk to Lake Michigan. It was a convenient drive to Sleeping Bear National Sand Dune while being near a grocery and cute town of Manistee.
The cottage is lovely and well maintained. The location allowed us to engage with extended family staying on Portage lake, enjoy a few meals on site and explore Manistee.
We really enjoyed our stay here! The house was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. It had everything we needed and was really comfortable. The owners were extremely accommodating and kept in contact with whatever questions we had. Our favorite spot was a secret beach just across the street - we had a blast!
We loved this property. Directly across the street from Lake Michigan. It was only a few minutes into Manistee and a short drive to many great hikes. The house itself was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed.
We had a great time staying in Manistee for 2 weeks. The beach access was across the street. Most of the beach is washed away with high water levels. The was very cute and we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Hopefully, we can return.
