About this property

G*R*E*A*T* no bluff beach! Yes, we have a beach!

Relax on Lake Michigan in our 2016 updated lakefront home on Lake Michigan which offers a private, shallow beach along with the following:
- 2500 sf 2-story home with 1.5 kitchens, 2 family rooms, 4 bedrooms and 2 baths INCLUDES a detached rustic camping cabin with a king bed and 3rd bathroom (unavailable in winter months due to no heat in cabin).
- The property is surrounded by trees yet so close to the beach you will be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves.
SECOND LEVEL- 2 beds
- Enjoy gathering in the spacious, new great room with leather seating facing a 55" flat screen tv, dining area and a kitchen, all with views of the lake. The kitchen within the great room has 2 granite islands with stools and new stainless steel appliances. The dining table for 8 is adjacent to sliders to the deck.
- 1 King bedroom is adjacent to the updated bathroom with marble shower.
- The sun room with a panoramic view of the lake is right off of the great room and has a queen pullout.
FIRST LEVEL - 5 beds
- This floor has 3 bedrooms, a full bath with laundry facilities, a mini-kitchen with sink, refrigerator and microwave, and a family room facing the lake with a 2nd 55" tv. There is also an alcove with a 2-twin bed trundle.
NOTE: Inside access between the 2 floors is a CIRCULAR STAIRCASE. Traditional staircase is located outside.
VERY RUSTIC CABIN: 5th BEDROOM/3RD BATH: Original 1940's pine cottage located next to the main home is a step up from sleeping outside. It consists of a sleeping room with a king bed, a separate bath (shower stall) and is perfect for family members who want added privacy WITHOUT FRILLS. (can be musty smelling and is not available in the winter months due to no heat or water).

Basic cable TV for two Smart 55" flat screen tv's, one on each level. Charcoal Grill.

The property is approx. 6 miles North of the city of Manistee and 7 miles South of Onekama.

Golf at Arcadia Bluffs and Arcadia Highlands, which in only about 10 miles north of us. Also close to Manistee National, Manistee Country Club and Crystal Mountain courses. Crystal Mountain is approximately 25 miles or 35 min. drive from the house and also offers skiing and other winter fun for your winter stay. Caberfae ski slopes are also nearby, as are many snowmobiling and hiking trails.

Why they chose this property

We love Lake Michigan! We love the sounds, the smells, the views and most especially the calm, peaceful feeling of being up North! Everyone is so friendly and there is so much to do. A nice location for golf...Arcadia Bluffs, Manistee National and Manistee Country Club (not private) are just minutes away...and the Arcadia Scenic Overlook is a must see! We are also just minutes to many kayaking and fishing areas, as well as skiing (Caberfae and Crystal Mountain) and snowmobiling trails.

What makes this property unique

This home is very cozy and welcoming and just steps away, the separate knotty pine cabin with recently renovated flooring and bathroom, lends a feeling of shades of vacations from long ago. It truly is the best place to relax on Lake Michigan, and you will soon discover why "Sunset Shores" was chosen for our name.

The lawn area between the house and the beach is also enjoyed for games, fires and an afternoon nap, and the small frog pond is a great attraction for the little ones. Also in the backyard and within view of the picture windows overlooking the lake is a bird feeder, so if you are a birder, bring some seed and binoculars!
