Great Location & Amenities
The owners of the property had great communication. This place was warm & cozy. The location is the best you can get in Manitowish. We could walk to the park, restaurants, get coffee, etc. we have a large pontoon and they had a great pier and access that made things easy. Our family loved it and would recommend this place to anyone.

Great Place
We had a great stay and the property was very nice. High quality finishes and plenty of amenities for everyone. The location is a nice balance of up north peace and quiet with easy access to bike trails, store, bar/restaurant and a little night life if you want. Plenty of space at the lake front for water toys and swimming.

Manitowish Waters Amazing Stay
Everything about the detail of the house was incredible. The location couldn't be better. The home was beautifully decorated and cozy. The park next to the house was beautiful and everything you need from groceries to Mannys(restaurant) was an easy walk. And the grocery store for a small town was amazing. Anything you could ever need from a salad bar, to warm meals to a very good wine selection.

Closer than close to everything! 5 stars! Clean and Modern!
We stayed in this location for a snowmobiling weekend in Manitowish and Mercer. It is so close to the trail and there is excellent parking for all cars and sleds on the property, that was perfectly plowed for our stay. The grocery store is right across the street, so we could grab anything we needed from breakfast items for early in the morning to frozen pizzas for late at night. The pea patch is also right across the street, great bar, and a bunch of great restaurants are right there. The living room/kitchen in this rental is amazing for hanging out with everyone in one space. We all sat around the kitchen island and in the tv area in the morning when we got up and at night when we returned home. We were so comfortable here and I can't wait to stay here in the summer as well. 5 stars. Would recommend to friends and family for sure. Thank you to our host, we had a great time! Rent this place quick!

Beautiful property
The property was beautiful and had a lot of space to spread out and relax. There were some issues with the septic but it was resolved after several conversations with the owner. I felt the extra fees-cleaning, pet charge, etc. were somewhat excessive. Overall, a very nice place.
