About this property

Home-Fishing,Hunting, hiking, golf,skiing,Atv's,Snowmobiling,Beach.

Location blocks from the cute little town of Brethren. Be the first guest's to enjoy the 2-bedroom, 1 bath cottage with an open floor plan, cathedral ceilings, beautiful quartz countertops and Amish crafted cupboards. One bedroom has a twin over full bunk bed, the other with a relaxing queen. Here you will have the enjoyment of the beautiful great outdoors. During the day you can make wonderful memories in the woods, on the river, at the softball/baseball fields and park for kids right next to cottage. Enjoy the beach, 3blocks north of the cabin. Kayaking or canoeing that are all within walking distance. Great golf courses for a ladies weekend or men's golf weekend. Other activities include blue ribbon trout fishing, steel head and salmon fishing within 5 minutes at the mystical Manistee River and Bear Creek. There are miles of hunting, hiking, trail riding, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, snowshoeing and enjoying the pristine fall colors that nature has to offer within minutes at the Manistee National Forest. There is a fish cleaning station close to the property, no cleaning fish in the cabin and no smoking. If you prefer a night out on the town, the Little River Casino is only 18 minutes away. We have a little bit of everything to offer and can't wait to host you!

Brethren Cottage

My wife and I spent the weekend at the property for a Steelhead fishing trip. The property was new, clean, and well-kept. We greatly appreciated the laundry, and all the supplies we needed were present, so we didn't have to bring or buy any household items. If you are in the area and looking for a rental, I highly recommend this property. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to the owners!

Me and my family had a steelhead fishing trip and luckily we were blessed to find Patrick’s listing. Not only is it beautiful inside and out, but he and his wife are amazing hosts. Super friendly, and understanding. The house has basically everything you could possibly need which just showcases their generosity, me and the family will definitely book here again. Thank you again and for bless!

My husband and I enjoyed this home. We were happy with the location and the property, we will definitely go back. Everything was in good order, (minus the grill, and I am sure they will tend to that, it may have just needed gas).

Extraordinary Property

This is a 5 star plus property! My husband and I use VRBO every time we go away and this property is by far the best one we used. Patrick was easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating. It was clean, well stocked, in a great location for our purposes and very comfortable. I would absolutely book this property over and over again.

Great place to stay while fishing the Manistee.

Perfect location for our fishing trip this fall. Clean and comfortable. The only improvement I could suggest would be allowing the thermostat to be set lower than 70 degrees.

Perfect place for Manistee river fisherman!!

This place still appears brand new. It's Simple and perfect!! And everything our family of four needed to get away for a few days during spring break! They even have a circle drive to accommodate those towing boats! We've stayed in a bunch of VRBO homes and never had the excellent communication and understanding that we received during this particular stay!!!

About the host

Hosted by Patrick Allard

Host profile image
It's been a dream for me a longtime to have a cabin by Manistee River. I can remember my dad taking me when I was really little. I want to try and pass the memories on to others so they can have long lasting memories. The great outdoors does a lot for our kid's and adults that might never get a chance to experience it.
