Quintessential Cottage on Manistee Lake Cottage! Situated on a quiet street, dead end, where walking and biking is safe and peaceful. Sunshine streams through this timeless 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage, filling it with warmth and charm. Set on the sandy-bottom shores of Manistee Lake with crystal-clear water, it’s the perfect place for swimming, boating, and year-round enjoyment. Classic details include arched hallways, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, waterside dining, an enclosed front porch, and multiple decks designed for lakeside living. The cottage comes mostly furnished, so you can move right in and start relaxing. With a durable metal roof and easy-care vinyl siding, maintenance is a breeze, leaving more time to enjoy the lake. A spacious two-car garage and mature trees complete this Up North retreat. Manistee Lake is renowned for its excellent fishing- walleye, perch, bass, and pike are plentiful right off the dock. Beyond the water, explore thousands of acres of nearby state land, snowmobile and ATV trails, or wind down at local favorites like Short’s Brewing Company, Dingman’s Beer Garden, or Casa Nueva. From sunrises to sunsets, this property captures the very best of Northern Michigan’s lakefront lifestyle.
