Stayed Aug 9, 2025Great property. Well stocked kitchen. Termendous views of the lake from the main room and bedrooms. Quick jaunt down to the beach. Bonus room is great. Kids bunk room is good.Furniture looks nice but is very uncomfortable. Wi-Fi coverage was spotty outside of the main room (bedrooms, outside). Could use some another set of beach chairs in the locker down at the beach. I wouldn't stay here with kids again until the wood pilings are all removed. Some are small enough to be hidden but caused a minor injury when someone stepped on one without seeing it.

Stayed Jul 12, 2025Wow! We spent a wonderful week at your beautiful home and couldn’t have been happier. Didn’t know much about the area when we booked but there was much to see and do and Manistee itself is charming. Would definitely return. This place had it all.

Stayed Jul 5, 2025Lovely home with responsive owners. Private, sandy beach and unbelievable views. Home has all the amenities you could need while being close enough to Manistee for dinner out, a stroll on the pier or limited shopping. Great for family and extra bunk house with tv was great for teenagers. Would highly recommend.

Stayed Jun 28, 2025We absolutely loved the home. The two walls of just glass gave us a view of lake from all areas of the main living space. Absolutely gorgeous place to stay and loved the separate porch/room the ability to wash off the sand either using the shower or the foot sprayer was wonderful. The house was well appointed with high-end kitchen, beach towels, etc. The kayaks were so much fun as well as the paddleboard. It was great to have our own beach to go to right out the door.

Stayed Jun 21, 2025Exactly as shown! A beautiful home with a stunning view to match. A family getaway with time well spent and memories made.A few minor idiosyncrasies…….rug inside the front door was a bit dangerous as it slid out of place instantly. Not much storage throughout the home but not a necessity when just visiting. Lighting in main room not the best, nor was the living room furniture very cozy, however, the large windows on the back of the house looking out to the lake were a bonus. Positive notes…….owners provided a large supply of amenities, including quality beach towels, toiletries, bath towels, coffee/latte bar, tiki torches & fuel, outdoor furniture, fire pit & wood. In addition, the home was very clean & nicely decorated. Quick & easy communication with owners, both personally and online.We traveled from central Illinois. We are not likely to return only because it’s not necessary to travel so far north to obtain the same benefits that we received in Manistee. There are plenty of other cities along the west coast of Michigan that offer similar features.Overall, I would highly recommend this place to others. The Opal House is a beautiful little gem hidden off a quiet lane. Perfect getaway to unwind, relax, and capture a deep breath.

Stayed Aug 3, 2024We had a wonderful week at this rental! The property and home were stunning. Beds were very comfortable, and there was plenty to keep my two young kids occupied. We spent hours walking the beach looking at rocks and finding seaglass. The views and the sound of the waves are simply incredible. Thanks for a special week!

Stayed Jul 20, 2024Our family enjoyed a wonderful week at this lakeside cottage. Kitchen was very well stocked, with beautiful views of the lake. The bunk room was perfect for our two children! The kayaks and paddle board were awesome when the lake was calm, beautiful clear water! Highly recommend a visit to Sleeping Bear Dunes and the charming town of Ludington nearby.

Stayed Jun 15, 2024This was our 7th summer in Michigan and our 6th rental house there. The house was very clean. With 3 kids, we loved the easy access to the water/beach water (searching for sea glass is so much fun), the additional tvs (including the one in the enclosed porch), the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts, we could go on and on. Check out the Daily Bakehouse in Manistee, Sleeping Bear Dunes (and nearby Glen Arbor).

Stayed Jun 7, 2024The house is nearly perfect! We’ve rented quite a few Lake Michigan vacation homes and this is our new favorite! The beds are comfy! The home is so clean. We didn’t find ourselves working around someone else’s toiletries, clothes or food. The extra tv room/bunk house was a huge hit with our teens! We appreciated the quality appliances and kitchen wares. The hot water seemed endless. The nearly 180 degree view of Lake Michigan was beautiful. We hope to return!
