With a population of just over 1000 people, it is quite possibly one of the best kept secrets in the state. On the other side of the Manistee River is the humble town of Wellston, Michigan. With a slightly larger population, this area overflows with charm. Natural beauty abounds in these towns. They offer abundant activities for every season.

Tracy’s communication very good before and during our stay. The house was very nice and our accommodations were met. We’d stay there on every fishing trip.. thanks Tracy and Clyde
We had a great stay in this property. After all the daytime activities it’s nice to chill and relax inside the house in the cozy living area and watch a movie. The linens and towels were smelling fresh! The whole house is clean and spacious.
Cabin was clean and neat..I would definitely come back...The only complaint I had was the non-stick pans in kitchen were peeling..otherwise the cabin had all we needed.
Tracy the owner is a great person excellent communication
The cabin was great didnt want to leave very nice clean and comfortable. Will be back for sure And again thank you to the owners
This place is located perfect for any activity such as fishing hiking biking golf etc, great bar n grill across the street for all your needs . Tracy was always there if we needed anything. Nice and clean inside and very roomy ! I would stay there again in a heart beat .
Thanks for everything Tracy .
This property is very clean & spacious. Plenty of extra pillows & blankets. Bed was comfortable. My only complaint was livingroom furniture was not very comfortable but for the price not a big deal. Property owners are easy to work with. We would definitely book again.
The property is exactly like show in the pictures and description. It is a clean, cozy and affordable place. Nothing fancy, but that's not what we were looking for. The yard was pretty much all sand and dirt (looks like work was going on) so make sure to check on that if it that would be a concern to you.
We stayed at the house for 4 days for a long weekend fishing trip. The property was perfect for all our needs. The host was very friendly and helpful all the way through our stay. We will be booking again next year. Thank you
We came to the area to do some fishing and were pleasantly surprised with the spacious room it had and it was very clean. We made some last minute changes and the property manager was fantastic to work with and talk to, she went out of her way to make sure things were all good for us. We will definitely stay there again!
Good and Clean. If you are planning a fishing, hunting, snowmobile, ATV trip to the area its a great place to stay for a base camp. Plenty of parking. Everything was extremely clean and plenty of room. We will be staying again.
Had a great couple nights here while playing golf at Arcadia. The cabin had plenty of space and beds were comfortable. A bar and grill was within a short walk. I highly recommend.
Me and my family were positively surprised by the cottage. It was very readable and comprehensive and very clean . Mrs. Tracy is a wonderful person. She helped us with everything and even recommended places worth seeing. We are very happy that we could spend our family time in such a nice place. We will definitely come back again to create more family memories. Thank you, Mrs. Tracy, once again for making it possible for us to spend the weekend in your cottage .
Super clean and inviting. Very spacious living area and plenty of beds. Management very friendly and close by. Responded to text right away. Would recommend for Tippy Dam fishing.
Beautiful home. Very clean. Keyless entry extremely handy. Host feels like family. She answers all questions promptly and is super nice. We will definitely be staying there again!!!
Enjoyed our stay the shallow well pump noise was a little scary at first till we figured out what the noise was. The owner was very good with communication and very polite . Had plenty of space for all of us and plenty of linen.
