About the host
Hosted by Kathryn
We are two College Professors, teachers, & musicians. This home, was built for our retirement. It is our pride and joy and, we would like to share it with you.
Why they chose this property
We chose to build on Lk Michigan for privacy and the beauty of the area.
What makes this property unique
Our house was designed by me and built by a local architect in Manistee. It is filled with art from our travels. The design is based on the bow of a ship. The home comes to a point with all facing the Lk. Copper walls, a cooking panty and stunning deck choices all add to the charm of this home. Designer furnishings, plush mattresses with luxury linens add to your stay. We pride ourselves in choosing renters that are a perfect fit for our home and we only rent about 2 weeks per season. We will ask to speak to you before agreeing to rent. Thanking you in advance.
