Nice place!
My husband and I made our second 2023 trip to Manistee Lake in Sept. This cabin is small, but it can accommodate lots of people with the multiple sleeping arrangements in the loft. We had a couple crappy days of weather, but we’re still able to get out fishing and enjoy the lake. The neighbors were great! Our only reservation was that the shower/tub is a very narrow, tall, claw foot configuration - made us nervous.

Clean, calm and relaxing cabin
We come from Southwest Florida every year to this area, but it was our first time on Lake Manistee. This little cabin was perfect for our family of four. It was immaculatly clean, had many beds to choose from, and extremely quiet. ( we never saw a single person while there). The lake is beautiful and shallow, which is perfect for swimming. The 2 kayaks were fun also. The only downside is the clawfoot tub/ shower was uncomfortable to use and not practical. And no propane is provided for the grill, and it did not make sense for us to buy a huge tank of it for only a few days. It would be helpful if propane was included. But that would not deter us from staying here again. We really enjoyed our stay!

Fantastic lakeside cabin
Our family’s experience at this lakeside cabin was nothing short of extraordinary. From the outstanding fishing opportunities to the quiet tranquility of the lake, the abundance of watersports activities, the cozy back porch, the rustic log cabin, and the friendly neighbors, every aspect exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend this retreat to anyone seeking a serene and rejuvenating escape from the hustle and bustle of life. Prepare to be enchanted by its beauty and leave with cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

Ice fishing adventure
Our family came for a long weekend for an ice fishing trip. We were able to walk right out the back door to get on the ice. The cabin was beautiful and simplistic.

Perfect Getaway
This cabin was perfect for a long weekend celebrating my parents October birthdays. The fall colors were at peak. Our days were spent driving the backroads to Petoskey, Old Mission Point Lighthouse and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The cabin was very clean and beautiful. If we weren't so tired, would have loved to have a bonfire one night. I'd definitely stay again.
