About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Log cabin hand built by my dad in the early 70’s (my mom helped too!). Live like the Brady Bunch with authentic orange kitchen counters, with modern updates like a cozy gas stove, great knives and cookware, and high-quality linens. Private 1 acre with deck, charcoal grill and fire pit. Please note there is no TV, bring your devices loaded!

Cabin is central to the Manistee National Forest with miles of snowmobile and walking trails, hunting in season, boating on the Manistee river, and hiking trails just down the road accessed near The Seaton Creek Campground.

I welcome your dogs and they will love the fenced yard (you will, too!). Just be warned that dogs who like to escape can probably find a way- there are some holes on the far side of the property! Pet fee is $20.

*NOTE: In July and August, I may be able to free up dates if the ones you want are not showing up as available. Please message me for stays extending past the weekend.

During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Huron-Manistee National Forest. The cottage offers a kitchen and a patio.

That 70's Stay

The property was easy to find and enough off the beaten path where I heard almost no signs of life. Communication with the property owner was easy too. The whole place looked like it was from the 70's and we loved it. The queen bed was firm and easy to sleep on, there was a bonfire pit that my wife and I took full advantage of. And the radio, the only sound system in the house, produced a lot of good sound. Overall, we will definitely be back.

Lots of earwigs

There were earwigs everywhere, it was awful. They were all over the bathroom, even on my toothbrush at one point. They were also all over the kitchen counter top. The house needs to be professionally bug sprayed. Also, the grass was so long. We had a dog and I did not like to see her out in the long grass, there are a lot of ticks this year. Also my son and husband were trying to play catch and other yard games in grass up to your knees. Not great. Did like that the gate closed, so our dog could have free range. The fire pit area was cute. Loved that there was crochet, don't see that game very often anymore.

Peaceful little place to stay!

We enjoyed this little property! I took my black lab and he loved the freedom and space of the fenced in yard. The kitchen was fully equipped and everything was clean and well kept. It is a very peaceful and comfortable place to stay. I would definitely stay there again. Thank you for letting us enjoy your family's cabin!

Relaxing Mesick getaway

Very clean organized and charming log cabin. Everything was perfect and the dogs had a lovely time in the fenced yard on 1 acre. People in the area were very friendly and told us fun things to do near by like kayaking down the beautiful Manistee river. Very pleasant and enjoyable!!

Our BFF Getaway.

We had an excellent time and enjoyed the cabin. Just a few notes: - There was VERY little communication with our host. They didn't even check in with us via text/email to ensure our checkin. - A small step stool would have sure been handy for us short folks - We would suggest a booklet/laminated sheet that would have gone over some things like how to turn on lights (not always easy to figure out with the electric set up); detailed instructions on the furnace, a map of the area with places of interest/need shown (gas station, grocery, hospital, where to get firewooe, etc) - The tongs for grill use are broken. We came up with something. But thought you would like to know.

Cool Retro Cabin w/ Big Yard

We stayed at the cabin at the tail end of our nature trip in Michigan. Very comfy and clean and well-equipped for our two night stay. Our dog LOVED the big yard and didn't want to leave :) Great place if you want to explore the nearby Manistee river.

Great break from life!

We booked this cabin due to the location to the biking and hiking trails and the fenced in yard as the property is dog friendly!! Our girl is old and can not do the hikes anymore so the acre yard allowed her to be outdoors and explore. Evenings were lovely!! We sat at night and stared at the stars with a bonfire lit. Great central location for our daily hikes and bikes. Cabin was fully stocked. And very clean. Leslie was communicative before check in. We didn't need anything else from her while we were there. Just remember no TV and no wifi for streaming. We loved it as we turned off gadgets for our time there and read, played cards, and did a puzzle when we were not out in nature. This property is amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. Lovely cabin with everything we needed. We are booking again!!!

Log cabin

The cabin was super clean and the yard was nice and big for our dog to run around. The town is small so if your looking for things to do you will have to travel. But if your looking for a quiet place to stay and some fishing this is the place to go. Thank you for the stay. We would stay again.

Nice cabin

This location was pretty close to the Buckley Old Engine Show, which worked well for us. The house was clean except for windows, screens and fans. Nice yard and sitting area on deck. A bit on the rustic side, which we did not mind. Kitchen and bath had everything we needed. Directions took us right there in spite of it being a few miles from Mesick.

Peaceful and relaxing cabin

Leslie’s cabin was just as she list in her description. It was a very easy check in process and check out. Love the full size fridge and that there was air if we needed, We didn’t and just used the windows and it was a great breeze. The yard is great! Our golden loved it here. We enjoyed campfires at night. Loved the heated fan in the bathroom as it did reach the 40s one night during our stay. We traveled to Traverse City and Sleeping bear dunes (approximately 45 minutes away) Overall I would definitely recommend staying here. We definitely would love to come back.

Need information

All was fine until checkout morning. We had failure of all water. None. We determined a breaker must have tripped to the pump as the microwave and toaster oven were dead also. Service panel was not accessible in locked utility room and the only way to contact owner was Thur VRBO !!! So needless to say she finally got back to us when the cleaning person came to clean the place after our stay!! Left three messages for her started at 8am . Do feel she should compensate us some.

We loved the vintage cabin feel. They had everything ready for us and more! About 1hour drive to sleeping bear sand dunes and traverse city. We hiked the Manistee River trail which was beautiful. The yard and house was perfect for our needs. And our dog loved it too! Thank you!

Mesick Property

We loved our stay at this cabin in Mesick, MI. It had a big yard and the cabin had everything we needed. We were on vacation stayed 2 nights, we ventured to the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City from here… it was about 45 min drive to each, but we enjoyed being away from everything.

Great getaway close to Manistee National Forest

This cozy, stylish cabin was the perfect home base for our Mesick-area adventures in Manistee forest and on the Manistee river. Just the right blend of minimal and comfortable, with PNW-style coffee gear, mature trees, midcentury furnishings, and plenty of peace and quiet. Hike to the putative highest point in the lower peninsula, on nearby Briar Hill!

Very good cabin for riding trails

The property was very clean and well appointed. The lack of TV was just weird. I could live there. I was there for a Jeep event in Mesick. Some of the best forestry roads are those not more than a couple miles from the cabin, just east and south.

Cozy private cabin

My husband, son and I enjoyed staying here. The listing and descriptions provided by the host are exactly what you get so there were no surprises. Host communication was great too. I give this the highest rating as it is one of the better rentals we have stayed at in terms of matching with what we were looking for. We have nothing but good things to say about the host and property but some things that might be concerning are 1) for those with younger kids, safety on the stairs to the upper bedroom might be an issue as the open floor plan does not allow any support on the one side of the stairs, 2) the fence had some holes and areas that might be concerning for small dogs and those that like to roam (this was our young lab's first trip so we supervised him at all times but he never tried to get out, though I think he could have if he tried), and 3) no TV and slow internet (we brought laptops and downloaded movies beforehand and did not have an issue using the wifi for directions and such). The things we liked best about this property was its location to trails and nature, privacy (it may not be on acres of land in the middle of nowhere but it is quiet and no one bothered us), and there was plenty of beds, blankets, pillows, dishes.
