Lakefront Cottage in Manitou Beach - Three Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 10

This was our 23 trip to Manitou Beach. Our last couple of stays have been at this lakefront cottage. It is a great location! The cabin is lovely and clean and well equipped.

We had five ladies together for the weekend in this charming cottage. It was delightful.

We had a great time, the house pictures are deceiving online, the rooms are really small. It's a great house for a mini vacation I just wish there was more room in the bedrooms to put away clothes or a have a night stand. You have to live out of a suitcase the whole time and there's no where to even put a suitcase. The bathroom is not senior friendly, the bath tub is a claw foot which is really elegant looking but so hard to get in and out of. And no where to put shampoo or soap while your in there. It needs a handle on the wall for something to hang on to because the tub is slippery. It's not ideal for tall people. The kitchen is a good size, comes with just about everything you need. Only strange thing is there isn't utensil drawer, but bonus that there's a microwave and dishwasher. The dining room is a good size and has extra chairs to. The lighting in the dining room is really nice and well lit. The living room is a good size, has a couch and a chair and a TV with satellite. There are two fire pits one in the front off the deck and one out back as well. There are good lawn chairs to sit around the fire. The beach is right across from the house but there is a road in between, it's hard to tell from the pictures shown. It's a fairly busy road in the summer. So don't leave kids unattended in the front yard. There is a playground across the road. There's not much of a beach anymore after the flooding they had. But there all small docks with ladders to get into the water. There is a small beach closer to the centre of town down by where the spa is located. The lake water when we went was freezing. But the spa was amazing. Same water as the lake just heated and a huge pool with three different temperatures to choose from. One tip, any open cuts or don't shave before going into the water, high minerals and salt makes your skin burn! Heals and cleans irritated skin but be aware. Would recommend this place for someone who is looking to get a way from it all and relax.

Great property near the water. Very cute, tastefully decorated with everything you need and clean! The cabin accommodated 6 people comfortably. We really enjoyed our stay! The rental of the kayaks was a great option as well.

4 adults and a 3 1/2 year old. We all had a great time...barbecue, fire in the evenings. All day at the beach...close to everything. The cabin was awesome! Looking forward to going back next year!
