Loved this gem!
We absolutely loved our stay on Manistee Lake. Philip was wonderful at communicating the entire time, made excellent recommendations and provided the perfect home for our extended family.

A nice break at the lake
We had a very pleasant stay over a week in July. Plenty of space, very comfortable beds, and a perfectly stocked kitchen. It’s about 20 minutes to the grocery store so stock up or be ready for daily trips. Traverse City is an easy 45 minute drive and Bellaire is close by too. We made great use of the paddle board, kayak, and canoe, but decided the cost to rent to motorized crafts exceeded the benefit due to the small size of the lake.

Amazing Place to stay!
This property is absolutely amazing! The sunset views are just beautiful, the house was immaculate and it was stocked to the nines. We had also rented the pontoon for the week, which was worth the extra spend. It made for such a wonderful family vacation!! Many thanks to Phil and Stephanie!

10 Star Lake Home
These lake home owners can be designated Super Hosts right off. Home is beautiful, clean, comfortable as is the beautiful lakefront yard. The owners spared no expense in stocking the house with everything we may have needed, actually over and above with many extras. I am so thankful we stumbled across their lakefront property, I can’t imagine there are many properties of this caliber available to families looking for a short term get away. We hated to leave this beautiful location with its available pontoon boat and wave riders. Our teens were so happy to be zipping around the lake as we cruised in the pontoon boat. Thank you Phil & Steph for your thoughtful gestures in stocking the house, the quality of your linens and the overall delight to be found in your heavenly lakefront home! Highly recommended!!
