Summary: Had a great time with our family at this property for a few days. Marcus was a great host, very responsive and was kind enough to check in the morning of day 2 to make sure everything was going well and there wasn’t anything we needed. Property was clean and as advertised in the photos, the provided coffee from the local coffee shop was a nice touch. Would definitely recommend this property!

Summary: Renovations very nice. Clean. Lots of space. Close walking distance to downtown. Neighboring homes/streets a touch rundown but beyond home owner control. Very prompt responses and accommodating! Would stay again!
Aubrey A. Jul 1, 2024 03:38:55 AM
Summary: We booked this cute home for our annual friends trip/beach volleyball tournament weekend. We had a large group - 13 adults and this fit us very comfortably. Lots of space to spread out and still feel like you have some privacy in a home with 13 people! Beds were clean and comfortable. Plenty of pillows and blankets and seating options! Quick walk to the beach and the bars. Yummy brewery right across the street. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, bowls, etc. Very convenient! We would definitely stay here again!

Summary: The house was perfect being so close and within walking distance to the Downtown plus everything that is going on in Manistee. The house was beautifully renovated with plenty of space for all 4 of us with two adults and two teenagers. With it being pet friendly also, it was just like being able to stay at home. The deck out back was a gorgeous place to relax at night with the comfortable patio furniture and the propane outdoor fireplace - we were even able to get the kids away from their electronics. Highly recommend this rental and will try to book it again in the future.
