Wonderful Weekend

Review Submitted: May 10, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
My family went up to Manistique for a wedding. We decided to stay at a house so that we could all be together. This house was wonderful. There was plenty of room for all of us and had a beautiful view of Lake Michigan. Having a house for all of us made the weekend much more enjoyable and relaxing. I would stay at this house again and again!!

Manistique Cabin

Review Submitted: March 29, 2011 Date of Stay: March 2011
this was just what my Wife and I needed. We took our two dogs and just relaxed and enjoyed the serenity of the U.P. It was an odd time of the year to go, with no snow, yet not warm enough for some of the summer attractions. We still had a blast and loved the little town of Manistique. My only complaint would be the odd smelling water. Thought it would go away with time, but lasted all three days we were there. Overall, that was a minor deal and we plan on visiting again!

AMAZING!!! 10 thumbs up.

Review Submitted: January 25, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2010
Last fall we came to this house to visit for a week. It was the most amazing experience and we didnt want to leave. Nicole provides EVERYTHING you could think of. If you need her, she is just a phone call away. The house is amazing and very well kept and for the beauty of the house, the scenes and all that is provided the price isnt bad either. We had 9 kids and 4 adults and everyone slept comfy with no complains what so ever. The only thing that the kids complained about is that it is set WAY back, and is very private but its like 10 miles to the main road but most would not be bothered by that, the kids were just anxious to do everything. We went in the fall so it was cold, that was my only complaint. This year we WILL be coming back but in the summer when we can fully enjoy this beautiful house that Nicole graciously is letting people enjoy. Nicole thank you again for EVERYTHING.

Shiny Shores

Review Submitted: July 27, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
Property was clean, owner's represenative responsive to any problems, beach non-existant but several sandy ones a short drive away. Great porch with lake views and Eagles flying by. Gravel access roads bumpy and dusty and 10 miles to get to most places.

Shining Shores

Review Submitted: August 14, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We loved our vacation! The cabin was clean, well equipped, and homey. There were lots of special touches like art work, plants, movies, books, cards and puzzles. We were very pleased with the supplies provided too. We had almost every kitchen utensil we could think of, extra blankets, and all we could think of that we needed.
