Photos and Description of the Manistee vacation cottage rental 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, sleeps 8

Step away from the hustle, bustle and relax in this secluded wooded setting. Lake Michigan sits just across the quiet private road offering calming lake breezes and soothing sounds. Our cottage does not offer direct beach access but a number of low bluff accesses to Manistee's sugar-sand beaches are within a 5-15 minute drive. Take an evening stroll down the quiet country road for beautiful lake and sunset views or just sit back and enjoy the natural beauty and wildlife from the large open deck. This newly constructed, completely furnished, T&G nautical style cottage offers the perfect spot for family vacations, hunting, fishing, or snowmobile trips. Within walking distance to thousands of acres of Manistee National Forest offering great opportunities to explore the natural beauty, hunt and snowmobile. Just 9 miles south of Manistee. Available year-round. If you stayed with us before you'll love our new place!

perfect adorable cottage

huntermom zeeland, mi
Review Submitted: November 3, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
This was the most adorable and wonderful place to stay! Set in the woods was great, so quiet, and just plain beautiful. The layout is just perfect, lots of space, great kitchen, Decorated in an adorable combo of "outdoors" and nautical. The price per night was unbelievable, they could easily get double. Location was great, close to Manistee, Ludington, and Pentwater. It was very easy to make the reservations, communication was prompt and very clear, and Mac and Liz were very kind and helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would love to go back next year if possible!

Luxury away from it all

Noble Naperville, IL
Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The Sunset Coast Cottage was extremely clean and furnished and decorated with flair. Although it was in a secluded location in the woods across from Lake Michigan without lake access, it had all the amenities of home. We enjoyed grilling out many family dinners on the deck. A few deer skittered by the woods in back. In the evening, we gathered around the fire pit for S’mores. We enjoyed ping pong games and Trivial Pursuit. There’s a considerate assortment of books and brochures on local attractions too. Around Manistee, we went beach and pier walking, canoeing, hiking and tried to capture the sunset. We enjoyed the Boathouse restaurant and the ice cream at the House of Flavors. We followed a huge ship along the River Walk as it made its way. On a rainy day, we toured the gorgeous Ramsdell Theatre. Call if you plan on touring other than on a Saturday. There are also museums, a Trolley Tour, and a bowling alley. We took a trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes and dined on fresh Lake Michigan whitefish in Glen Arbor. The hosts were very nice and I would definitely recommend this property.
