Enjoy your stay at our cozy rustic cabin on Manistee Lake. This little cabin in the woods is quaint, and is a place where wonderful memories can be made! This cabin is very clean and comfortable. It is decorated in a lodge style, very nice and quite comfortable, yet it is affordable as well! It is a perfect setting that offers something for everyone in your party. Whether you want to relax and read a good book, go fly fishing on a magnificent river, take a canoe trip down the Manistee, boat, waterski or fish right on the lake, take a short drive to Traverse City, Petosky, or other surrounding destinations, it is all there for you. The lovely landscaped and wooded lot, sandy beach and boat dock, will provide you a place to really relax and have a great time. Just bring your jet ski or boat and launch it across the lake, less than five minutes from the property, and there is a a boat dock on the property to use for your visit.
Looking for night life and entertainment? It is just a short 25 minute drive to the newly expanded Turtle Creek Casino! Look for antiques in nearby towns. The cottage is also just a few miles from 1 truly beautiful golf course with an incredible view, and about 8 miles to another great course. However, if golf is your pleasure there many more courses within a 45 min. driving distance.
The surrounding woods are wonderful for hiking, biking and off roading on the extensive ORV Trail system. The trail is just minutes away from the cabin. We have some availible parking for ORV's too. Manistee Lake itself has good fishing for Walleye, Small and Largemouth Bass and various panfish.
Manistee Lake is especially popular for families with younger children as the sandy bottom extends out and is shallow and safe for play. The beach and shallow water at the property edge is really great fun for dogs to play as their feet can touch the bottom for quite a way out. Fish, waterski, swim, the lake is perfect for all. You can use our canoe and cruise the lake. Have a BBQ on the outdoor river rock BBQ, and take in the fabulous sunsets our lake is known for. We provide some firewood so you can enjoy campfires in the fire pit at the lakes edge...bring your marshmallows!
