About this apartment rental

"The Place" is located in one of the old brick buildings in downtown Manistee between the theater and the pub. It's across the street from the scenic Riverwalk, less than 1 mile from beautiful Lake Michigan and footsteps away from restaurants and shops. Built in 1882, "The Place" has retained the hardwood floors and 11' ceilings. The 1400 sq. ft. of comfy living space is a great place to relax after a day at the lake, hiking in the Manistee Nat'l Forest, or skiing at Crystal Mountain, or golfing at Manistee or Arcadia Bluffs

Very comfortable place to relax in between outings to the beach, hiking, canoeing, winery, rivers, lakes, Lake Michigan. Lots to do in this area, but we mostly just took it easy. The Place has high ceilings, hard wood floors, nice rugs, a nice kitchen, dining area, nice outside covered deck, private parking. Very near TJ's Pub and other restaurants. Ice cream and chocolates across the street. The river walk is a block away and the beach on Lake Michigan is a mile away. 30 minute walk. There's a nice park there also. And if you fish, Manistee is the place to be. We had a great time.

All the amenities for the weather, for a beach you could want. Umbrellas, beach chairs. Great location. We only had a minor issue but host was very responsive. I would bring a sleep mask though- which I always do when I travel. The back 2 bedrooms are very bright in the AM. Lovely apartment and Manistee is such a great destination!

We enjoyed a clean, comfortable, thoughtfully appointed home during our first visit to Manistee. We had immediate access to the river walk, restaurants and ability to walk to the beaches and playgrounds. Besides the spacious indoor area the house provided a large covered deck with plenty of seating. We had use of beach chairs, umbrellas, indoor games and toys for the grandbabies.

Mother’s Day Weekend

Mother’s Day Weekend

My mom, sisters and I always take a weekend trip for Mother’s Day weekend. The Place was perfect. The accommodations were awesome and being right in town was fun. We were able to walk everywhere and really enjoyed our stay. We like to cook and we’re super impressed with how stocked the kitchen was with essentials for cooking. We’ve been many places that have only one pot or pan. We had everything we needed to cook dinner each night and breakfast each morning. Everything was super clean and beds were comfy! Communication with the host was very prompt and easy! We would all recommend this location to anyone who was looking to stay in Manistee for the weekend (or longer!). Thank you again for a great location!

Charming Apartment in Downtown Manistee

Charming Apartment in Downtown Manistee

I stayed here with my husband and 3 children ages 4-9 yrs old. It was a fantastic property and location. The three bedrooms and 2 FULL baths fit all our needs. The old Victorian style and original wood flooring makes this place so special and unique. The front door opens directly to the shops and restaurants on River St. The back door opens to a massive deck that is quiet and private. The Riverwalk is across the street and we were able to see a massive freighter come through the channel one evening and both drawbridges go up- it made my 4 yr old son’s whole vacation. Lake Michigan was a mile down the road which we drove to because of the younger kids and all our equipment but easily walkable if so desired. It’s a quiet and relaxing town with gorgeous beaches and sunsets and without the prices and crowds of the larger cities like Ludington or Traverse City. We traveled an hour south one day to ride buggies on the sand dunes at Silver Lake. You can find as much or as little activity as you want here. We actually added an extra day to our trip because we loved it so much. The property manager was fantastic and accommodated us every step of the way. We will definitely be back.
