The cabin is only a short walk to swimming, fishing, and boating on Manistee Lake. The lake is relatively shallow (around 20 feet at its deepest point) making it especially great for small kids and those who want to wade in the water. The cabin is partially secluded, having only neighbors on one side and woods surrounding. Enjoy the amazing view through the large picture wall. In addition, the kaleidoscope of wood colors inside the home and knotty-pine walls makes this cabin a great find for small families, couples, or small groups of friends. Although there is more privacy than in many cottage areas, this is not a place for events or loud groups. We adhere to a good neighbor policy both at the home and at the swimming area. Appreciate the fully equipped kitchen, living room, master bedroom and bathroom on the main floor. The picture wall will lead you outside to a 8' x 20' patio area equipped with a grill, chairs and a table. Grab a kayak or two, which are provided for you during your stay, and head out to the center of lake to fish!

Tent camping seemed to be busier than normal, so we opted for this spot. It was great, we were able to walk down the street to use Manistee Lake, and we also to drive with the fam and the inflatable SUP’s over to Torch lake. Not too far from decent grocery stores and still in the middle of nowhere. Would recommend! ##### Christian R. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelly C.

Aug 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome house! Can’t say enough good things about the property itself! Beautifully updated house, quiet location just as described. They seem to have thought of everything, from extra sheets to plentiful fans and firewood. The only hiccup was a discrepancy between what is supposed to be the available shared private beach, and what the property owners directly on the beach think. Rather than argue, we just went to another beach area. It was really no problem, except that meant not getting to use the kayaks, which had been a big draw for us. Would definitely return to this or another Freshwater property! ##### Karen H. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nikki W.
