Location: Traverse City, Northwest, Michigan, USA (30 miles from Traverse City)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)
This nearly new built three bedroom home on 10 acres is surrounded by woods, yet has all the comforts of home. It is located on the Manistee River which provides unlimited recreational activities: canoeing, kayaking, inner tubing, swimming and fishing. Because of its privacy, wildlife viewing is excellent, with deer, turkeys, and many other birds and animals in abundance.
It has a large deck facing the river and a large screened porch, to enjoy the summer breezes and the sights and sounds of nature. A wall of windows including two glass sliding doors makes you feel like you are outside even when you are indoors.
Location is excellent, with downtown Fife Lake only five miles away and has everything you need including three great restaurants, bait shop, hardware store, grocery store, library with internet access, party store, tennis courts, basketball play ground, skate park, very nice beach, and picnic areas.

Upon our arrival, we were greeted by a wonderful snowy layout with a clear moon shining down on us. The warmth and coziness of the cabin was immediately felt as soon as we entered. A rush of warm air kissed our chilly faces like it had been waiting all season for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the Northwoods River House and the romantic nature that surrounds it. It was very peaceful and allowed a great break from the day-to-day routine and stress for us. We spent our Saturday in beautiful Traverse City and enjoyed a spectacular deli lunch at the Dish Cafe, which we found in your wonderful notebook of treasures! We took a stroll along Lake Michigan and enjoyed two steamy mocha lattes while collecting pebbles from the shore. We closed our day out with a nice, quiet and romantic evening by candlelight. All in all a SUPERB trip and we will definitely be back! Until next time.......
