Great Launch Pad for skiing

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wellston Weekends. The property was very well kept and communication with the property owner was quick and friendly. The location was great for groceries (Dublin, ftw!) and skiing (Caberfae, Crystal). We will definitely be back in future ski trips!

Quiet area in a nice small town

We had a nice relaxing time. We had a couple kids with us, so It was nice to have to living rooms with a TV in each. Short walking distance to a nice sandy beach on the lake. There was a park across the street.

Perfect!

This is a really great house. It's close to the water and feels secluded. The house was big enough for all 4 of us to spread out and stay out of each other's way and had everything we needed to enjoy a long weekend. I would definitely stay here again!

All about the pool table

We booked this property specifically for the pool table. It didn’t disappoint. The property as whole was great, too. The gazebo with the grill and picnic table under it was very nice. Everything was very clean. And despite having a fairly hot weekend, the cabin stayed nice and cool. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect New Years Ski Trip

This house gave us a perfect getaway for the weekend. The location was good for skiing at Caberfae and the house fit all 7 of us very comfortably. Our favorite feature was the pool table, whenever we were there we were playing. The kitchen was stocked with whatever we needed and there was ample towels, blankets, and tissue. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Wellston cabin

The Wellston property met our needs and served the purpose we had hoped for. One group took a day trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Glen Arbor. Another group spent a day at Manistee in the downtown shops and Lake Michigan beaches. All sites were beautiful. Middle of Manistee National Forest. Nice ranger station. Kids enjoyed swimming in the lake across the road, the public beach, the dock, and fishing. Ran out of time. Would have liked to walk the Arboretum trail and visit the Tippy Dam area. Stayed 3 nights. Very nice neighbor. Lovely area in general.

Very clean property

Spent a couple of days here while racing the Lumberjack 100. The property is very dated (my 16 year old son had never seen orange shag carpet and got a kick out of it), but well maintained and very clean. The beds were very comfortable as was the living room furniture. Hosts were very accommodating as well. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Jeremy Nieman

Host profile image
This vacation home has been a part of our family since 1993. Originally owned by my parents - we enjoyed many hunting trips, Thanksgiving dinners and fun summer weekends with them. We then purchased the property in 2006 and have enjoyed taking our daughters there, swimming in Crystal Lake, renting a pontoon on the "Mana-Pine", spending summer days on Lake Michigan in Manistee and enjoying smores by the bonfire back at the cabin. We truly enjoy our time in Wellston! But with our busy lives, we don't get there as much as we'd like. So we have recently decided to share our vacation home with others! We hope you enjoy your stay here as much as we always do!
