the host was very kind, let us know about events going on in the area. the house was very very close to the beach and downtown shops, usually we are about a half hour out when we visit manistee, so that was a very nice luxury.
however, it is a shared property so there are other tenants with you. not much privacy and was a bit uncomfortable, and wasn’t advertised very clearly. the pictures also make the space look a lot bigger than it is. it says it can sleep 7-8, but i wouldn’t recommend more than two adults, three at most.
the area we stayed, was the back porch area, however , we didn’t use the back porch very much due to the cobwebs and spiders (my boyfriend is a baby when is comes to spiders)
the living area itself, was very clean ! the hosts were also kind enough to leave some travel shampoo and soap and other utilities.
overall really cute place to stay with friendly hosts ! would more than likely book again !
