UP LIVING on Big Manistique Lake at its finest

You will find a beautiful log home with 200 feet of gorgeous lakefront with access to Big Manistique Lake in Curtis, Michigan. The home offers a large living/dining area, full kitchen, 3 bedrooms, loft, 2 full bathrooms, and mudroom with laundry. With nearly two acres, this home offers unusual privacy. There is a newly built 30' by 32' separate garage. It's ideal for housing a camper, boat/jet ski, snowmobiles and other vacationing equipment. The loft in the garage has foosball table, ping pong table, TV and DVD player for rainy day entertainment.

Big Manistique Lake is the largest of three lakes in a chain. It's an all-sports lake that provides over 10,000 acres for fishing and boating/jet skiing. There is convenient public access on all three lakes. There are dozens of other smaller lake and rivers to be explored. Many offer public access.

We are 1.5 miles north of Curtis; it’s a perfect central UP location. The trail head is near by and a perfect launching pad for exploring Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Tahquamenon Falls, Kitch-iti-kipi, Lake Michigan, Lake Superior and Sault Ste. Marie Locks.

UP LIVING offers four amazing seasons. Autumn is highlighted by color tours, hunting and Great Lakes fishing. Winter offers heavy snow and a super well maintained snowmobile trail system. You can easily ride from the cabin to the trail heads at Seney, Curtis or Newberry. Spring fishing on Big Manistique Lake is known for small mouth bass and walleye. Perch fishing is super year round. Northern pike and other species are readily caught. Summer brings a plethora of action! Plenty to keep you busy for days! Growing up in the Manistique Lakes community, we'd be happy to help you plan your summer adventure.

Perfect getaway
This property was NO disappointment! We came to visit our daughter who recently moved to Germfask. I would recommend this property with no reservations. It was clean and designed to accommodate 2 small families comfortably. We were able to visit several popular areas in the UP from this location also.

Exploring the UP
Prefect home base location to hit popular UP attractions like Pictured Rock, Tahquamenon Falls State Park and Soo Locks. Comfort home to relax enjoy the view of the lake and a fire after day of exploring. Would stay again.

UP LIVING At Its Best!
This was our—Grandma and Grandpa—first experience with using rentals and this set a high bar for future rentals. The cabin was adorable and so clean. We went with our son, his wife and granddaughters. It was my daughter-in-law who found the property. They are experienced rental users. We all enjoyed our stay. We used the lake, had bonfires a few evenings, saw hawks, blue jays, hummingbirds and deer. We traveled to many landmark attractions but came “home” to a comfortable bed and wonderful bathrooms, thanks to our host Beverly.

The perfect place!
We came to Curtis for a celebration of my Dad’s life and stayed here with my family. We loved being right on the gorgeous Lake Manistique to swim, float and paddle board. The white birch cabin is so inviting and lovely. *Of note, 2 of the beautiful beds are quite high. I am 5’3” and had to jump up with a running start. The hosts are generous, flexible and helpful. Every night we sat by the fire under the stars and were even treated to the aurora borealis. Thank you for creating the perfect place for my family!
