Manistee Fun
We had a hiccup on our side (Covid). I didn’t go but the two others in my group went. 100% 5 stars go to the Host for offering guidance and clear communication navigating us through. The host was very quick into responding to all my “what if” senecios. The host saved the day!! Thanks so much. I saw there was a gravel bike race coming up so I may rebook.

Great Porch Home
This two-story porch home was perfect for our stay in Manistee. It has comfortable furniture, two porches, and games for the kids. Everything including the beach was in walking distance.

Great Getaway
The Front Porch Cottage was a great little getaway for us! It was very clean and was exactly as it was advertised. It was in a quiet neighborhood and was very close to the beach and quaint downtown of Manistee. Communication with the host was excellent! We really enjoyed our stay!

Comforts of home.
Laundry, on site. Furniture was comfortable and brought the cottage vibe. Kitchen had all the basics and sparkling clean. It was like having a cottage vibe furnished apartment. Bath is cute and has all you need but tub and surround could use an update. Lots of hot water with decent pressure. Quiet neighborhood, porch felt more private than I originally thought it would. We enjoyed our stay.

Nice property - is as advertised
Overall, this was a nice property that was as advertised. Pro's - nicely decorated/funished, living rooms & master bedroom very comfortable, clean, updated carpet throughout home, 2 porches available for use, convenient location within Manistee. Con's - portable air conditioner upstairs struggled to keep that floor of the home cool, no ceiling fans to assist in keeping cool - only 2 portable tabletop fans provided, hot water ran out after 2 showers. Suggestions - add ceiling fans to the bedrooms, as was done in the living room, paint/stain both porches to freshen up worn exterior, add ice cube trays to freezer. Overall a nice property inside, but small additions would make it top-notch.

Nice little cottage.
The area is beautiful. The cottage is close enough to the lake to walk there. The cottage is small but adequate.

Great Location
We enjoyed our short visit. There were 4 of us so plenty of sleeping space but kitchen was very small. Only providing 2 chairs. A couple of folding chairs would have been helpful. Didnt get the bar stools!

Family Vacation
The house was very cute! Perfect for our family :) The deck was especially nice, with a couple porch swings, chairs and a fireplace. The balcony was great too! I loved the decor in the house, gave it a nice beach vibe. We loved that it was close to everything too, especially the beach!

Nice little family getaway
We very much enjoyed our trip and the special little touches that this home offered. The owners certainly take a lot of pride in their property! The only negative factor for us was the proximity to the road with our little ones. We typically like to have a lot of outdoor time in the evenings, but that was a little more difficult with the yard space being right up on the road. Obviously there's nothing the owner can do about that- just something to note. I was overjoyed that they thought about keeping a baby gate available in the home and it was perfect to keep my toddler from the steep stair case! Overall, we loved the cottage and will be back for another trip!
