The house location was better than we could have planned - a short drive to Manistee and to a grocery store. The rental had its own beachfront. Everyone had a comfortable place to sleep and the kitchen was well set up. There was a great backyard outdoor area with a grill, fire pit and plenty of seating. If we have an opportunity to return to Manistee, this will be the first place we would choose to rent. ##### Gayane C. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kellee R.

Watching the sunset every night from atop the bluff was amazing. We also enjoyed strolling the beach, playing shuffleboard, playing board games, and playing arcade games in the basement! The kitchen was fully-stocked with all the gear you need to prepare meals throughout your stay. The host is very responsive and helpful, so you know he cares about you enjoying your stay! Overall, good value for our lake house getaway this year! 😎 Only two knocks on this place: queen bed in bunk room is very stiff, and cleanliness could be improved upon arrival (bathrooms and basement had cobwebs/spiders that we took care of). ##### Clark H.

The house itself is small, but has everything you would need to stay with a family, including multiple smart TV's so your teens can watch what they want! We really appreciated all the pillows (each bed had at least two), the shuffleboard court, and the sunroom which was a big hang out spot for our family. My favourite spot was to sit on the outdoor couch, in the shade and read my book while listening to the waves. We also enjoyed some truly spectacular sunsets while roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. ##### Lisa K. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer L.

If you like to cook, the kitchen has high quality cookware and the grill overlooks the lake. There are a wide variety of games for children (and adults) of all ages. The different Rubik’s Cubes placed in the living room were a really nice touch! The owner’s attention to detail was evident throughout the home in many ways. There is easy beach access and it was safe for children to wade and play in the lake. The house was a really nice space for our family of five to relax in without feeling on top of each other. We highly recommend this property! ##### Jennifer L. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Don T.

Two small items: the bed linens were damp when we arrived. Mice were spotted the first day. We got traps and nabbed 2! The biggest missing amenity for this house is AC. Some of the nights were quite warm, even with fans. The owners were very responsive to a message we sent about a door lock not working. Easily fixed with their advice. Thanks! Don Troyer ##### Don T. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### THOMAS M. Jun 20, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Great location. Was not that clean The house was not clean when we arrived. The bedsheets were dirty, stained and had hair on them. When we went downstairs, there was cobwebs everywhere and several spiders in the shower. Be careful when you rent here as the listing states two bathrooms, but the second one is in the basement. The basement has low ceilings and is only partially fixed up, so not the nicest to go down there in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. They’re also cobwebs in the sunroom over the table and lamp area. I contacted the owner and she initially apologized, but then said the stains on the sheets were probably just rust stains from the washer. She then sent over a cleaning crew to clean the beds and the basement. That night the cleaning crew came out to the house. They were very friendly and professional. They ended up changing and washing all the sheets and bedding for us. They also went to the store to buy bug spray and new bedspreads as the all of them in the house were dirty. They spent 3 1/2 hours cleaning and setting up the rooms for us which was very helpful. But it was after 11 o’clock at night by the time we got to bed. We trip the breaker in the basement when we ran the microwave and coffee maker at the same time so be careful. Several of the dishes and glasses we used were dirty, and had to be re-cleaned before we used them. The location was stunning and beautiful. There was lots of amenities inside and outside of the house for the renters to use. The owne ##### THOMAS M.
