About this house rental
TERRACE HOUSE
SLEEPS: 6
BEDROOMS: 3
BATHROOMS: 1
IN-TOWN: Manistique
PARKING: 3 cars MAX
GREAT CENTRAL LOCATION FOR FAMILY VACATIONS, GOLF & FISHING RETREATS in the Central Upper Peninsula
Relax on the front porch of this classic Craftsman -style home, with the ideal mix or updates and original woodwork. Soak in the small town feel, with the convenience of exploring the Central Upper Peninsula with ease!
Take a 9-block stroll south, down to Lake Michigan, or 4 blocks west to local restaurants. Enjoy the local Manistique atmosphere, stroll the peaceful boardwalk or take a quick drive to Kitch-iti-kipi- known as the Big Spring-- in Michigan's Upper Peninsula where the water is crystal clear, and can be observed from a self-operated raft.
Indian Lake State Park is just a 9 minute drive (5.4 miles) ! Launch your boat, bring your ice fishing gear or relax on the sandy beach during your stay. Indian Lake is the 4th largest inland lake in the Upper Peninsula with an area of 8.400 acres. It is 6 miles long and 3 miles wide. In our experience, the sandy beach is rarely busy, and provides great family swimming opportunities within the roped off areas (Life guards are not normally present on this quiet, sandy beach) . Drive- in with your Michigan Recreation Passport, or purchase a day pass at the gate.

My three friends and I came from Marquette and Gladstone to spend a weekend in Manistique, shopping, eating, and catching the Halloween showing at the drive-in. The sweet little bungalow on Terrace was the perfect home base. We all live in and are crazy about old houses, and we were not disappointed! The home was clean, comfortable, and oh-so-charming!! I found myself dreaming of living there ☺️.

We loved the location in the upper peninsula as we could do day trips. Jacks Supermarket is 4 minutes away. By far, the nicest supermarket I have ever seen! ( And I've seen many). The kitchen and bathroom were modern but the rest of the house was Victorian! I loved it! It was very well maintained! Lawn needed cutting but the house was very clean!! We recommend this place to anyone!!

Quiet neighborhood, great place to stay and short drive to many beautiful places

The property is well maintained and close to the downtown area with cute shops and dining. It has a cozy front porch to enjoy the sunsets. The town has a nice lakefront and walking path. The only downside of the property is the 24 hour surveillance from a property next door.

Terrace Place is a lovely older home in a quiet and nice town on Lake Michigan. The kitchen and bathroom were nicely updated. We knew there was no air conditioning, which is fine, since Lake Michigan is a natural air conditioner. However upon arrival for our five day stay we discovered that all the windows in the house, except for 4, did NOT open nor have screens. This fact was not in the listing and very disappointing. A house must have windows that open and permanent screens. The front porch was wonderful, but only 2 chairs, not enough for our family of six. Also no outdoor eating table and chairs. Finally, the propane tank on the gas grill ran out in 10 minutes with no back up around. We would recommend this house for a summer family vacation when the windows and outside area are rectified. For the price of this rental we expected a little better.

Terrace House fit our needs great. Perfect location- could walk to main Downtown area in Manistique. The house was cozy and nestled in a quiet neighborhood. The only reason I gave four stars overall was because the upstairs got quite warm. Michigan summer months can get pretty hot and I think it would be beneficial to guests to have a small window unit in one of the upstairs bedrooms to cool it down. The main level had a small A/C unit that worked nicely but even with fans attempting to move the cooler air around, it did not really cool the upper level down.

Charming old home with lots of character. The home had everything we needed. The bedrooms were comfy and spacious. Kitchen was well stocked and enjoyable to use. Lots of natural light throughout the home. Plenty of parking space . A very nice neighborhood close to everything. Centrally located to all the upper peninsula has to offer. We enjoyed our stay and our pup did too. Thank you.

Very nice “craftsman” style house that has kitchen and bathroom remodel. Unfortunately the remodel was done inexpensively and that shows.! As in bath vanity sink faucet barely reaches the sink bowl causing water to splash to the back and tub spout is ready to fall off! Not having any counter space near the stove was inconvenient and sparse for night stands and USB outlets! Worst was that we were there during the melt and there is no gravel to park on..just MUD! We did have a nice visit and would do it again!

Great communication! Easy check in and check out! Everything you need is there and lots of space to hang out!
We were a small group of friends and we each had our own space when we needed it and space to eat and play games.
Living room area cute, but not super cozy. If there are more than 2 people, consider bringing cushions to sit on or something like that.
Close enough to explore some fun things and super close to town, shopping and food.
