Good overall place for a place to stay. Great location. When we needed help from the host we were brushed off. Had to park across the street when someone took our reserved spot so that wasn't convenient for checkout.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback and we're happy the condo worked well for your time in Manistee. Just to clarify, we immediately engaged regarding the parking issue and reached out to multiple other guests on site to see if it was their vehicle. Once we determined it wasn't, we got approval for the guest to use the spot right next to their assigned one, all within just a couple of hours. We are happy with our responses and communication through this situation and would be happy to show any prospective renter the communication thread if they have any questions.
We had a wonderful stay at this neat and tidy condo. It’s in the ideal location with proximity to the State Campground and downtown location. Everything was perfect!
