About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Huge historic on Lake Michigan w/ large yard, fire pit, BBQ & air conditioning

Our home is a 1900’s historic charmer with updates for everyone (yep, air conditioning, high speed-wifi & big tv ;). Play games in our large backyard or finished basement, and is walking distance to the beach or restaurants - staying here is #morethanvacation.

Guests have exclusive access to enjoy the house (on one level), partial basement, back deck, and backyard area. *Note: The entire house has a separate one-bedroom apartment with a separate entrance & a deck available for booking. Reach out to me if you are interested in both areas.

Situated in a cute, historic neighborhood in downtown Manistee that’s easy and safe to walk with well-lit sidewalks, everyone around is so kind you'll think you are in the deep south. You are blocks away from 5th street beach, downtown Manistee and the canal for big-ship and drawbridge viewing :)

Perfect Fall weekend!

We truly enjoyed our stay at this charming home that is pristine clean, spacious and beautiful! The location is perfect for visiting the spectacular Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, and a few of the many wineries during a perfect Fall weekend while the foliage was in peak color. We also loved the spaghetti dinner items provided when we came back from a long day touring the area!
