Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
Our stay was AMAZING! The house was well decorated and had plenty of places to put our belongings. Nice open space downstairs to hang out! Kitchen worked great for cooking! Complimentary coffee filters were a life saver. Bathroom was spacious. Bed upstairs was very comfortable! It was hot upstairs (as expected with an upstairs/older house) but they provided a fan that worked well. Outside yard was the perfect place to chill, we could even see some of the boats come in on the river across the street. Neighbors were friendly! Location was great, we walked into town numerous times and felt very safe. Manistee is such an adorable and nice town—good shopping and places to eat.
House was EXTREMELY dog friendly! Our golden retriever had plenty of space in the house and had a blast playing at the dog friendly beach that’s only like a 5 minute drive away. He loved meeting the people of Manistee! The complimentary poop bags were such a nice gesture too!
Property manager is very informative and helpful! Great people to rent from!!
Note to others who use the dog beach: bring a hose to attach to one of the spigots in the grassy area near entrance of the beach to make rinsing off your dog more helpful after a day in the sand and the water!
4.0 / 5.0
House is awesome. It did smell a little musty and the water pressure could have been better. Other than that it is a wonderful house and we did enjoy ourselves. The owner stay and I contact with us to ensure we were comfortable. We very impressed.
3.0 / 5.0
The property was located in a shady neighborhood with lots of random people walking by at all times of the night. The listing stated river view and private patio but that is kind of a stretch. The accuracy of the listing misrepresented the actual rental. We had a great time fishing and did enjoy being walking distance to some shops and restaurants.
5.0 / 5.0
Our family had a wonderful vacation staying at this property. It is clean and spacious, and very much a "home away from home". It is a perfect spot between the beach and downtown Manistee. We loved that the property was pet friendly! The owner is easily accessible, with a very reasonable response time. We would definitely stay their again!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a wonderful stay at this house. Great location if you have dogs and like the beach as North Beach (dog friendly) is literally a few minute drive. Manistee is a cute town with a few good places to eat. Safe and quiet neighborhood close to a grocery store. Very kind and attentive hosts.
4.0 / 5.0
This was a nice place for us to stay for a few nights. The first floor is roomy and comfortable and the kitchen is big. The host was very communicative and provided a nice welcome guide to help out.
A few things to note for future bookers:
The stairs are very steep. Fine for a young adult like me, but maybe not for young child or older person. It’s very hot upstairs where two beds are, and there is no door or curtain for privacy between the rooms.
The kitchen has the basics, but is not fully stocked with enough food storage, foil, other items that one might have in their kitchen so be prepared to go buy or bring if needed.
No laundry on site.
Overall a good place and would probably stay again if ever came back.
5.0 / 5.0
Cozy house with room for two teen boys. The location was great, we walked to town and parks for frisbee golf. Beaches were only a mile away.
5.0 / 5.0
Cozy charming quiet cottage perfect for our family (and dog!) close enough to everything- the beach, the downtown, and right on the river. Easy and seamless communication with responsive owner. Perfect spot to enjoy beautiful Manistee and northern Michigan.

Great house in a great location.
5.0 / 5.0
When we first pulled in I was confused about the parking but the owner responded immediately and clarified it for me. The yard is very small but there were plenty of other areas to walk my dog. The house was nice and had plenty of space. The stairs to the upstairs are very steep but no problem for adults, maybe wouldn’t be safe for children. There is a bedroom on the main floor tho so families could still stay here. Living room and kitchen are spacious. Bathroom is very nice and spacious as well. Great place to stay!

Great location and wonderful communication!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay at this cute property. It’s close to the beach and downtown, easily within walking or short driving distance. The house itself is cozy. The whole process was easy and the owner was great at communicating. My only recommendation is to put in a porch or side-yard light.

5.0 / 5.0
Chad’s space was absolutely perfect for us and our two pups! The living quarters were beautiful and the location couldn’t be beat. You have everything you could need to cook meals if you don’t want to eat out a ton, or there are lots of yummy options within a short walking distance. We walked downtown and to the beaches every day. You are a 2 minute drive to North Beach that is dog friendly which was amazing because our pups love the beach and water. The neighborhood was very quiet. There really isn’t anything negative to say about Chad’s place. We will definitely be staying again. :)
3.0 / 5.0
The home was clean and well decorated. There were a couple things I did suggest to the management company following our stay and I think they will address them. Just little things like stocking the kitchen better when advertising a fully stocked kitchen.
But a couple other things perspective renters should be aware of, the stairs are very steep and lack a hand rail on the outside of the stairs. The stairs are steep and carpeted which make them slippery. Also the upstairs bedrooms do not have doors on them, you go through one room to get to the next and neither have doors.
The home is located close distance to 5th avenue beach and town, both within walking distance or biking.
5.0 / 5.0
We went up there for a job to do in Manistee. The place worked out great for me and my guys. Everything was very nice. Will definitely come here again if needed to.

Good Location, Comfortable Beds, Well Appointed Kitchen and Beautiful Bathroom.
Would Have Appreciated a Washer and Dryer for Our Fishing Weekend; Glad I Brought Plenty of Towels from Home.
We Would Stay Again.
