Inviting, easy access, fully furnished, 2 bedroom, 1 bath home. Located near Baldwin, across from Manistee Forest. Big Star Lake private (association) Bayak beach 5 minute drive.

Girls family weekend
The house was perfect for our needs! The living area was spacious and clean and we were thankful for the air mattresses! The beach is a further walk than the listing led us to believe but The fire pit and yard games provided hours of fun! Thanks for having us!
