Map & Owner's Profile
$99 S-Th Nts. Lake Michigan Beachfront-Fireplace, Jacuzzi
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Manistee
This property has been in my family for over 100 years and is very special. My mother and I designed the home, and it was always intended to enjoy with friends and family. There is a spiritual peacefulness here unlike any other place I know, and I have traveled quite a bit.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Quiet, peaceful, romantic setting. This is a very private hideaway, and the view is unbeatable! You have to see it to believe it! Our guests always tell us that the pictures do not do it justice, and they are even more impressed in person! We can help you create that special moment for honeymoons, anniversaries, and proposals...call to arrange for flowers, chocolates, cakes, dinner, champagne, etc. waiting for you when you arrive.
Beautiful 3-Story Chalet with Hot Tub, Honeymoon Penthouse House with Jacuzzi. Sleeps 2-20.
Owner's Map of Manistee
My family and I have enjoyed sharing this property with others who appreciate its beauty and peacefulness as we do. My grandmother and grandfather always loved spending summers here, and I grew up coming to this very spot every year. My family and I now live in Manistee year-round and love being in God's country.

When we came up the stairs we both went WOW! this is so cool and seeing it was 10:00pm it was dark so we could not even see the view. When the sun came up it was another WOW...seeing Lake Michigan the beach and sand... after looking thru the comments from the other who have stayed there we tried the Blue Slipper don't let the 100 year old bldg stop you from missing are great breakfast. If I didn't see the comments I would have never gone into to it... It was great I'm a breakfast kinda of guy and I pretty picky so do go. Back to the room it was clean the bed was not to hard not to soft and slept like a baby...thank you very much for letting us stay we will be back again....maybe we will try the 2nd floor next

We were married on the bluff overlooking the lake. Our small gathering of friends and family loved the place, including us. Everyone enjoyed themselves with the many fun features the house and property had to offer. It was a fantastic four-day getaway! We will be back!

We had our wedding here at the beach house and it was amazing!(August 16-23, 2008) The house accomodated 20 of our family and friends the week before the wedding. And the beach was the most amazing backdrop for our 40 guest ceremony and reception. Owners were very helpful in helping with all wedding arrangements! I'm sure we will be back for future vacations!

The week went by so fast! It was so nice to shar this slice of heaven with our 3 sons! The only thing that made last night bearable was to know we'd be bck in 4 weeks. We can't wait! it won't be so busy next time - just relaxation! The Glenwood was so good we had to go back twice! We will cringe when we get our VISA bill! Thanks so much for sharing your home! It is appreciated. Don't forget to sign us up until 2020! What a perfect week!
