Location blocks from the cute little town of Brethren. Be the first guest's to enjoy the 2-bedroom, 1 bath cottage with an open floor plan, cathedral ceilings, beautiful quartz countertops and Amish crafted cupboards. One bedroom has a twin over full bunk bed, the other with a relaxing queen. Here you will have the enjoyment of the beautiful great outdoors. During the day you can make wonderful memories in the woods, on the river, at the softball/baseball fields and park for kids right next to cottage. Enjoy the beach, 3blocks north of the cabin. Kayaking or canoeing that are all within walking distance. Great golf courses for a ladies weekend or men's golf weekend. Other activities include blue ribbon trout fishing, steel head and salmon fishing within 5 minutes at the mystical Manistee River and Bear Creek. There are miles of hunting, hiking, trail riding, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, snowshoeing and enjoying the pristine fall colors that nature has to offer within minutes at the Manistee National Forest. There is a fish cleaning station close to the property, no cleaning fish in the cabin and no smoking. If you prefer a night out on the town, the Little River Casino is only 18 minutes away. We have a little bit of everything to offer and can't wait to host you!

Clean and simple. Nice new home in the trees, yes it is in a neighborhood, but it is quiet. Peaceful is what we were looking for and is what we found. You are 20 minutes from everything you could want. Great nursery's in the area. I came home with 3 new plants! We had no reason to reach out to the owner, so cannot comment on that.

Brethren Cottage

My wife and I spent the weekend at the property for a Steelhead fishing trip. The property was new, clean, and well-kept. We greatly appreciated the laundry, and all the supplies we needed were present, so we didn't have to bring or buy any household items. If you are in the area and looking for a rental, I highly recommend this property. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to the owners!
