- "Beautiful place, nice people, good for family!" - "Very nice and historic B & B" - "Interesting. Great hosts and food" - "A museum-like interior with extensive 19th century collection of furniture and arts. Owner offers tours providing details about the house and collection. Our individual room was gorgeous and comfortable, with modernized spacious bathroom. There is no TV (which was fine for us) but had stone wifi connection. House offers books, board games, and snacks. Morning breakfast was incredible, based on recipes consistent with the period of the late 19th century. Best of all was the conversation with the owners, which expanded my breakfast well beyond clearing of the breakfast table! Jim and Jan were perfect hosts, and return trips will be forthcoming!"

- "This was a cozy house for me and my adult/teenage daughters with plenty to do. We went to the beach every day...shopped downtown...and took a daytrip to the Arcadia Dunes. We couldn't ask for a better getaway....we love Manistee and this house..... and will definitely be back next year!!" - "The house is exactly as described. Charming, clean, fully stocked kitchen and lots of very nice amenities. The back yard was way bigger than I expected and my dog loved having an area to go run around off leash. The beach is so close abs within walking distance. The golf course is directly across the street. It was nice to look out the front windows in the morning and evening and watch all the deer families walk through. Downtown is also very close. Lots of places to choose from. Just remember to check hours as everything closes earlier than normal. We will definitely come back here to stay."
