My dear friend and I stayed for a short getaway. We had a wonderful time and appreciated our accommodations which were clean and as described. We were within walking distance to Lake Michigan and had a nice view of the harbor. Thank you-

Cozy, cute, quiet, clean place in a great location! Book through broker to avoid fees!

This property was great but the fees we incurred by booking through VRBO really put a damper on our stay. Once I booked on VRBO it became apparent that I could book for cheaper going directly to the broker. c21boardwalkrentals dot com

Wonderful Stay

We loved our stay at Brook Harbor. We are a family of 4 with two parents and two kids (4 and 2). This condo was very clean, efficient, and in a great location. It had just enough space for all of us. Two parents and a 4 year old fit in the main bed and we brought a pack and play for our 2 year old that also fit in the bedroom. We loved the proximity to the harbor, the pools, and the playground. The fenced in playground area was so wonderful for our little kids; they loved it and we loved it was safe for them as it is right next to the water. Also being so close to Man Made Lake as a huge bonus. My 4 year old and I went rock hunting and had a blast. We saw several deer on the property as well. Downtown was just a short drive and it’s a super cute area. Our only hiccup was the shower. It worked perfectly for my husband and me, but bathing two little kids in it was not a good time. However, that’s an us problem, not an issue with the property. We would definitely return. My daughter (4) said her favorite part was “everything,” but especially the 3ft area of the pools where she could touch.

Summer 2023

Beautiful location. Lovely little condo. The trash was still in the can when we got there and the freezer had some residue on it which I was able to wipe out, but otherwise clean. Pillows all need to be replaced. They are worn out and smell a little. It would be helpful to put some sheer covering over the top windows in the main room for those who sleep on the pull out bed. We enjoyed our stay.

Lots of pet hair every where

The condo was in a good location but it said no pets allowed. We seen pet hair all over the couch and chair. I emailed the owner and he said some one must have violated our no pet rule. So I said I would get the vacuum and clean it up. The vacuum container was packed full of pet hair!! The owners were not truthful at all about the NO PETS! So I vacuumed the furniture and then you could see a lot of hair along the wall on the carpet, under the kitchen table too! It was all over the lights in the bathroom by the mirror and in the ceiling fan in the bathroom!! It was gross! I cleaned those too and took photo's of the before and after! The ceiling fan above the kitchen table I also had to wipe off! I was looking for a can opener which they don't have! and I found a container of cat food and a rawhide bone in the cupboard!! So if you want to stay in a condo that does not have any hair don't stay here!!

I would have given 5 stars but the condo was lacking the extra star. We would have loved a television in the bedroom and a stacked washer and dryer. We were there for 6 days and really missed having the ability to wash while there. There is no public laundry at the facility even though there is a marina. Also, given how close to the beach a couple of beach chairs, umbrella and a small cooler would have been nice.

Quaint and beautiful getaway

The property was beautiful, the condo is the perfect size for a small family or couple. Has all the necessities and comfort of a home. There is an incredible indoor pool and hot tub, a large outdoor pool (that was a bit cold) and the 5th street beach and concession is a short walk or car ride away! The view of your back deck looks out at the harbor, the kids loved looking for fish every morning and the playground is a 3 min walk around the harbor. If you have kids sleeping on the pull-out sofa, plan to bring a foam cushion if you can.

Location location location

We loved the location. It’s a short walk to a beautiful beach and beautiful pier. It’s also just a couple minute drive to downtown. It was our first stay in Manistee and we would definitely come back to the same area. It was such a nice surprise. We also love the fireplace. The outside lanai was very cute and lovely to have coffee or tea in the morning. I’m not sure that the bed was a queen as advertised. I think it was a full-size. We have stayed at so many rentals and I just felt like this one was lacking some TLC. I understand a property management company runs it instead of a person and that’s could be why it’s missing that kind of personal touch. Some examples are the WiFi is terrible, and there are no instructions for the tv, No racks for luggage, no Kleenex, dirty sponges (no clean sponges for the dishes). There’s a bunch of clocks, but none of them are set correctly. And the batteries are dead in them. Again, these are all small things. We would definitely stay again. I just wanted to provide some suggestions.

Great stay for our Michigan adventure - We ventured up to Leland (Fishtown), Frankfort, Arcadia and down to Ludington & Muskegon. We went to Traverse City for a day trip. We also hit Grand Haven, Holland and Saugatuk. Home base in Manistee was perfect. We enjoyed the downtown and the beautiful beach & sunsets. We will be back! Thank YOU!
