We are 3 miles from Big M Recreation area, and a short drive to Pine Lake, Caberfe recreation area, Nordhouse Dunes, Little River Casino, the town of Manistee and public beach areas.

Fish, kayak or tube on the the Little Manistee River, adventure out to Hoag Lake for swimming and water sports, explore Big M recreation area, enjoy local snowmobiling, drive to the public beaches in town, sit out by the fireglobe at night, or enjoy the charcoal BBQ grill. When you are ready to retire from the great outdoors, we have 2 bedrooms plus a cozy den with electric fireplace, and two full baths - (split floor plan with each bedroom/bath located on opposite ends of the house), front and back sunrooms with dining tables (enjoy the view and catch glimpses of some backyard wildlife!), a large living room with a full DVD and book library, plus games and puzzles. The remodeled kitchen is fully stocked. The zoned mini-split heat pump system provides heat or air conditioning year round. Your stay includes free Starlink satellite internet.

Two bedrooms with private baths (double master layout), plus a den with queen sized futon - 5 beds that sleeps a maximum of 8 people. To keep the overnight fees low, we have one-time fees per stay for additional people over 2 - this covers the general cleaning and laundry costs.

Pet friendly for house-trained, non-aggressive and well-behaved pets. There is a one-time $50 pet fee per stay for cleaning.

Great Place for a Fishing Trip

I took a buddy of mine up there for a northern michigan fishing trip. Location was great! Beautiful property. Walking distance to the Little Manistee River. The owners were professional, kind, and easy to work with. The only thing hampering communication was spotty cell service (that's a northern michigan thing though). I would recommend this property to anyone asking.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Johnston

We fell in love with the Manistee area years ago. The area is our happy place and we were blessed to be able to purchase this property with acreage. We enjoy sharing it with others who also enjoy nature, wildlife and the beautiful area.

Why they chose this property

We love having wooded acreage that is isolated and private. In the past we've captured so much wildlife on trail cameras - deer, wild turkeys, bobcat, bear, a fox family (with 5 kits), skunk and raccoons. We love sharing this property with the wildlife! We love the clean air quality and how blue the sky is up here!

What makes this property unique

18 wooded acres with rolling topography - we love to go out and explore in the private backyard. We love the vicinity to the Little Manistee River and Big M recreation area. Pam spends most mornings out on the roads running or walking.
