The bathroom has a bathtub with a shower above. It also has a full size washer and dryer.
The kitchen contains an electric stove, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker and refrigerator. Unfortunately it is challenging to winterize an ice maker in a seasonal cottage, so bring ice or make ice with the trays provided.
Outside you’ll find a firepit. Firewood is provided. You are welcome to burn any fallen brush on the adjacent lots in the firepit. There are 8 Adirondack chairs as shown in the picture. There are also 4 beach lounge chairs so you can lay flat - perfect for an afternoon beach nap. There are some plastic beach toys for kids..

This place was perfect for our family of 3 with room to spare. It was just as described and pictured. Very secluded feeling and had everything you could need and more. The beach was sand. The water was clean and clear.
This property could not have been better! Absolutely everything was as good or better than the listing. From booking & payment to the accommodations and communication. Top notch! A quick one hour (beautiful) drive to pictured rocks lakeshore was great day trip as well. Highly recommend this property!
Great property with a beautiful beach front. House was great, beautifully renovated, very clean. Our stay was so relaxing, enjoyed kayaking on lake Michigan, swimming and relaxing by camp fire. Very quiet neighbors. Would love to stay here again
This lovely cabin is off the beaten path, but close to parks and the town of Manistique. It was clean, quiet, and provided a respite that was very needed. We had an excellent time and enjoyed the mild UP summer. It was hard for us to say goodbye when it was time to leave.
The cabin was clean, quiet, and private. It was comfortable and set up with a family in mind including coloring books, children’s dishes, a stool in the bathroom, and even children's beach chairs. You couldn’t ask for easier access to Lake Michigan.
Went up with our 5yr old and our friends with their 3yr old. It was a perfect spot to have a long weekend vacation together! Host was very communicative and the home was clean. Beach was huge and beautiful! Would love to return sometime.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The cottage has everything you need! The beach was beautiful. It was quiet and serene and just what we were looking for!! We will definitely be back!

I grew up in Manistique but have lived in larger cities for the past 25 years. I visit Manistique often - as they say, there's no place like home.
Why they chose this property
I spent summers in my youth with my grandparents on this beach. It has been my family's passion to renovate the property so it can be shared with others.
