Woods, water, and wonderful memories await at this over 3300 sq ft all-season lakehouse with “ Huck finn” feel that is very hard to find! Manistee Lake is known as being THE friendliest lake in the Kalkaska Glacial Lake Region! With 50 feet of private frontage on beautiful 860-acre Manistee Lake — and tree-lined sides creating a natural privacy screen — this property setting feels much larger than its measurements suggest. Flexible layout sleeps up to 13 guests while still feeling intimate for two. Enjoy the year-round spruce-lined four-season porch overlooking the water, a spacious lakeside deck for gatherings under the stars, and a side porch that immerses you in the quiet beauty of the woods. On the main floor you have 3 living areas to pick from plus a well appointed kitchen with a working island and a dining island, plus a formal dining area. Spend your days fishing for walleye, pike, perch, and bass right off your 74’ dock, or venture onto the trail systems that make this region a magnet for off-road adventures surrounded by thousands of acres of state land. Nearby Dingeman’s Beer Garden, offering healthy and fun food choices, or Manistee Lake Bakery — famous for pizza and donuts — are just minutes away, and Traverse City’s restaurants, shopping, and vibrant cultural scene are an easy 30-minute drive. At night, as the sun sets across the lake, you’ll hear the soft sound of “Taps” played from Camp Tanuga — sometimes accented by the loons call. A daily reminder of the peaceful, enduring spirit of this special place. Whether you’re seeking a private getaway, an investment opportunity, or a turnkey lake life escape, you’ll find it here — all at a fraction of the typical Up North waterfront prices.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
