We loved the setting of the cabin by the creek. We were there in the fall and the changing leaves were beautiful and the firepit area was great. The cabin was cozy and the host was very helpful and responsive. Our kids thought the cabin was awesome and loved sleeping in the loft. The driveway was great to pull a large trailer in and out of as well.

Fall getaway

I really enjoyed the location of the rental. I felt secluded but yet the road wasn’t that far really enjoyed the back deck although it rained five of the days I was there, so the front deck was wonderful to sit at home and all had a very nice day. Looking forward to my next four days there.

Perfectly Peaceful

This is an excellent spot to land when visiting the area. The house is so peaceful and the view is wonderful. You're truly in a cabin in the woods with all the convenience of a small town nearby. The house is well cared for and very comfortable. I have saved this one as one of my favorites.

Had a great time at Cool Creek Chalet. Spent time almost everyday down at the creek. So relaxing! Just put your chair right in the creek and enjoy. There were just 2 of us so we mostly stayed on the main floor. Bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well supplied. Felt very private but a short drive to Manistee. Check out The Dublin Store which is only about 5 minutes away. Great place for groceries and their beef jerky selection is pretty impressive. Would definitely return to the house if in the area again.
