Manistee Harbor Retreat · Lake Michigan Access · Indoor Pool · Sleeps 8

Welcome to our little retreat on the harbor.

Tucked into a charming waterfront community in one of Lake Michigan's best kept secrets, This cozy 2-bedroom plus loft townhome is the perfect base for your northern Michigan getaway. The open concept main living area features a sectional, gas fireplace, and a record player with vinyl, equal parts relaxed and welcoming. Step onto the balcony for peaceful views of the pond and harbor, with a glimpse of Lake Michigan to the west.

The community has everything you need without the fuss. An indoor pool and jacuzzi open year-round, an outdoor pool for summer, a playground for the little ones, and stone bonfire pits perfect for evenings. A harbor with boat slips sits right outside, and Lake Michigan's sandy beach is just a leisurely 5 minute walk through the neighborhood.

Sleeps 8 comfortably across two bedrooms and a loft. A king in the master, two fulls in the second bedroom, and a full sleeper sofa in the loft. A crib is available for little ones.

Manistee itself is a genuine northern Michigan town worth discovering. A walkable downtown with a movie theater, boutique shops, breweries, and coffee shops. The Manistee National Forest greets you on the way in. It's real, it's scenic, and it's exactly the kind of place that reminds you why you drove north in the first place.
