Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2005

My name is Sandy for a reason! I live at the beach from sunrise to sunset!!

Why the Owner Chose Manistee

We chose this location for its spectacular views of Lake Michigan, its close proximity to the water's edge, and for the five mile, uninhabited, pristine beach. It doesn't get any better than this!

The Unique Benefits of this House

Location is great for swimming because of the water's sandy floor and gently graduating depths. Also, wildlife abounds, such as bald eagle, hummingbirds, butterflies, birds and deer.

Kingman's Reef - Private Beachfront Home on Lake Michigan
5/5

Another great stay

Date of Stay: 08/16/08 Review Submitted: 02/22/09

Another great year with lots of sunshine. We really enjoyed the fabulous sunsets from the deck! The view of the lake from the house is so relaxing and beautiful! We will be back again next year for some more R&R. It was very much needed and we couldn't imagine a nicer place to stay! Thanks for letting us enjoy your lovely home.
