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!

Clean and simple. Nice new home in the trees, yes it is in a neighborhood, but it is quiet. Peaceful is what we were looking for and is what we found. You are 20 minutes from everything you could want. Great nursery's in the area. I came home with 3 new plants! We had no reason to reach out to the owner, so cannot comment on that.

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!

Patrick is the man

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!

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.

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!!!
