Lovely home close to everything! The deck is very large overlooking the beautiful marina. The pool is right next to the home with convenient and easy access. Communication with the host was quick and convenient. They were able to assist me with a reservation error I made and also mailed to me items left behind. Beautiful landscaping which adds to the amber ambience of everything Everything you need in kitchen and outdoor grill works great. Thank you to the host for all of your assistance!

Our family vacation

Since my husband and I are from Manistee originally, we try to come back every summer. We look for a property close to the beach. This place did not disappoint. It had everything we wanted and more. We were located next door to the outdoor pool ( which the teens enjoyed) and very close to the beach. We had an amazing view of the harbor and a big beautiful porch with a hot tub (which we used many times) and various loungers and rockers.We were thrilled to find three bathrooms and four bedrooms (one with bunk beds). We really enjoyed the open floor plan with a big kitchen and dining area.The only complaint was that the rattan living room furniture was very uncomfortable and not large enough for all of us.All in all, everyone had a great time and look forward to coming back next summer.

Large Deck with beautiful view

We enjoyed our stay here. The deck was wonderful to sit outside and watch the boats in the harbor. Took advantage of indoor/outdoor pools on the property. Had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. Short walk to the beach.

Absolutely Wonderful

We were so blessed and fortunate to have the opportunity to stay at your most beautiful home. Everything just PERFECT. You thought of everything. I enjoyed the covered deck overlooking the canal, and of course the gourmet kitchen, the relaxing slipper tub and having the perfect view of fireworks on the 4th while sitting on deck. Thank you Shirley and Nick. Blessings, Sherry

Fantastic week

We spent the week with our daughters family from Palm Beach Fl, 2 children 11 and 13. The home was beautiful and furnished like a luxury model home. Exquisite appointments. Everything you could ask for. Home is located on the Marina. We could not see Lake Michigan because of a row of condos but it was just a short walk and the beaches are great. The pool was next to us, but not busy or noisy. We did not use the indoor pool or fitness center but it was very nice and also close. To entertain the kids and us we rode the dune buggies at Silver Lake. A lot of things for kids in the area. A little drive but worth it. We rode horses at the Rockin R at Bear Lake and rented a Pontoon Boat in Manistee. We had a wonderful dinner at the Blue Fish downtown and breakfast at House of Flavors. Also, don't miss the shops downtown. Never miss the Kitchen Shop and the Glenwood Inn store. Another favorite is MacBeth & Co Gift Shop in Onekama, not far from the Casino. Without a doubt the best vacation rental we have had.

My family and I had previously stayed at the property under the past owners. We were very happy to see the property was how we recalled, with the exception of a hot tub and gas fire pit on the deck. I have nothing but praise for the owners of the property. My only complaint, if it's even a complaint.....there was no fabric softener for laundry , and that may not even be something supplied! We look forward to next year! I would recommend the property to anyone looking to stay in Manistee MI.

Best rental we have ever rented

Spotlessly clean. Spectacular view. Abundance of space. Lovely deck area. Stunning artwork and attention to detail of the aesthetics of the space. I will rent this over and over again and wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. We had a fantastic stay in Manistee largely due to how wonderful this unit is. So grateful owners are willing to rent it out.

Fantastic Vacation

The house was incredible. Lots of space for the 6 of us. The kitchen was probably our favorite room (well, besides the master bedroom and the outside deck!) The kitchen has everything you need and more. And you couldn't beat the location. The outdoor pool is right next to it, but there is still a lot of privacy. Indoor pool and gym are just beyond the outdoor pool so they were very close. The Beach was maybe a 1-2 minute drive and a beautiful spot with a concession stand which the grandkids loved. We can't wait to book it again for next year!

Amazing getaway!

Amazing getaway! This was our first stay at the Harbor House and we will definitely be back. The home is beautiful and the location was perfect. Our favorite part was sitting on the deck facing the harbor each morning drinking our coffee. The deck was gated so our five-year-old could run and play. The pool was just a few steps away and the beach a few minutes drive. We explored this quaint little town and found unique shops and restaurants. Michigan weather did not disappoint with high 70s to low 80s. We can’t wait to return with more family members!

Thumbs Up on Harbor House in Manistee

My family and I throughly enjoyed our stay at the Harbor House. The house is as shown in the pictures, great kitchen, clean, and well equipped for a vacation. The weather in Manistee changes quickly so the partially covered deck was a great place to hangout. The pool is steps away, the beach is a few minute walk, and tasty casually dining in historic downtown Manistee is a few minute drive. Thumbs up for this wonderful vacation home!

Large, luxurious home in a beautiful neighborhood overlooking a majestic marina. Gourmet, spacious kitchen and huge deck! Our family really enjoyed our week here! Our only complaint is the living room furniture- it’s not comfortable for longer than 30minutes of sitting. An upgrade of this furniture would make this place perfect!
