About this property
Large Downtown Manistee Historic Home Near Lake Michigan
Location is key in this large home with plenty of space for your group to spread out. Sleeps 18 + 2 infants. Walk two blocks to the shops and restaurants on the Historic Manistee Riverwalk and bike or stroll about 1 mile to Lake Michigan. Enjoy fishing from one of the many charters or bring your own boat with public boat ramps and marinas a few minutes away. Two great golf courses in town with Arcadia Bluffs only 30 min away and 45 min from Crystal Mountain and Caberfae Skiing in the winter!
The space
This newly remodeled historic Victorian home was built in 1905 still has old world charm with modern conveniences. Originally two separate homes, this large house is perfect for multiple groups and provides plenty of space to interact together and separately. If you need to work, our newly upgraded mesh wifi 6 system and home office with a monitor are available during your stay. Families will have everything they need with baby gates, a high chair, a mini crib, a pack n play, a foosball table and other games made available to guests. There are 3 dedicated spots available, but plenty of other free street parking right around the house. There is also a wheelchair accessible ramped access to the house and 2 bedrooms and bathrooms on the main floor. Nearly every bedroom has either a smart TV or a fire stick for entertainment on rainy days.
Enjoy a glass of wine or dinner on the back patio, a fire at night, or walk across the street for a Dairy Queen treat on a hot day!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Amy Kehr
We live in the Detroit area full time, and love being able to share our home with others who we hope create lasting memories there like we have!
Why they chose this property
We chose Manistee because we were looking for a property where we can ditch the car when we arrive. We love being able to walk to the town and the beach, and truly enjoy the community and scenery that has been built in this unique historic city.
What makes this property unique
We're two houses in one!! This means we're great for multi-family and larger groups who want to be together, but also be able to spread out with many gathering areas.
