About this property
Relax at Redberry House—just blocks from downtown and Lake MI beaches
Nestled in the heart of Manistee’s historic neighborhoods—where the ornate spires of Guardian Angels Church reach to the sky, and historic homes beckon for you to stroll the quiet streets—Redberry House is waiting to welcome you! Relax with a cup of coffee on the front porch, or take an easy stroll into downtown Manistee for delightful shops, antiques, restaurants, the Riverwalk, or Manistee’s vintage movie theater, The Vogue. Just down the street, First Street Beach offers a breathtaking view of Lake Michigan where you can enjoy a beach day, boat launch, full bath house & concession stand, playgrounds, catch a stunning sunset, and more!
Redberry House is only a quick drive from some of Michigan’s most beautiful parks, golf courses, hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, or star gazing. The home is about an hour from Michigan’s Adventure Amusement park, 5 mins to Manistee National Golf Club, 30 mins to Arcadia Bluffs Golf Club, and 40 mins to Crystal Mountain ski resort, golf, and spa.
Redberry House is divided into 2 private apartment units, each with its own entrance. The first floor unit has been lovingly updated and outfitted to host up to 8 people when using the twin trundle bed and separate futon in the den area. (The private upper floor unit is only used occasionally by the owners and will not interfere with your enjoyment of the home.) Redberry House is fully stocked with linens, bath towels, and beach towels, as well as a well-stocked kitchen and two internet TVs (via Roku). Unfortunately, the unit does not have a dishwasher or washer/dryer. Air conditioning is provided via two window units, along with ceiling fans and oscillating tower fans, that are more than sufficient for keeping the space cool and comfortable!
The Manistee area has so many interesting areas and activities to explore and is graced with beautiful landscapes that allow you to catch your breath, relax, and retreat. Come enjoy a week or a weekend and get to know one of Michigan's hidden gems!

Our trip to Manistee was perfect – from the timely communication with the property owner, the cleanliness and comfort of the rental, to the perfect weather.
We chose Manistee as our home base while my family explored the north western side of the lower peninsula. As we have previously done Boyne, Charlevoix, Petoskey, Mackinac Island, and Traverse City, this time we explored from Glen Haven to Silver Lake. Manistee is a cute town with great beaches and was the perfect location to explore different towns each day. The house is a bit of a walk to the beach but there is plenty of parking if you drive. You can walk to most shops. Kacha was responsive and helpful. My two teenagers easily shared the one room and husband and I had the other. Plenty of space for us all! Highly recommend!
This house was perfect for my sisters & I. It was roomy & comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and I must mention the thick & soft bathroom towels.
Nice accommodations on a beautiful, quiet street, close to downtown. Great communication with the owner when we had questions. We loved our time at the Redberry House.
Residential neighborhood, quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the sunsets on the beach, hiking, and kayaking. Very clean. Manistee is a nice town. We plan to come back and stay in Redberry House again.
We had a great week in Manistee. Enjoyed a great concert at the Ramsdell Theater, trolley tour, trip to the dunes, time at the beach & parks, and a free concert at the beach! The house was perfect for our family of 4 and parents including a senior with mobility challenges. We were able to cook all of our meals at the house and enjoy a campfire in the back yard!
We stayed with six people in our family. The home is within a short 5-10 minute walk to downtown. Everything was clean and as described. The homeowner was extremely helpful and communicative.
The home has a great layout & is decorated very well. We liked relaxing there after exploring Manistee. The town is very interesting & we took several walks on the river walk. Tried several restaurants & really enjoyed TJ’s Pub downtown. Would stay there again on our next trip. 😊
Plenty of space for a good sized family or friends' getaway. The house was spotless and had comfortable sleeping and sitting arrangements. The hosts supplied so many needs that usually are not included elsewhere, such as extra t.p. Whether planning a trip to towns like Manistee or Ludington, or heading to the beach, stay at Redberry House!
Very cute, clean. And perfect location. Kascha(sp) The host, was super accommodating, Even letting us check in a full day early. Very walkable area near the cutest downtown.

Glad you had such a great time :) Happy to give you that extra time at Redberry, because fortunately the booking calendar was open for that day—lucky you! Hope to see you at Redberry again sometime.
We stayed for what felt like too short a time as we left. The house is wonderful, easy to use. The neighbors were friendly. It was an easy drive to all kinds of venues.
Stayed with family for a week. We loved Redberry House! It was close to the beach and close to downtown Manistee. It had everything we could have needed, including beach chairs and towels! Kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook our meals with no problems. Nice and clean, beautiful neighborhood. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend!
