About This Home

(On Market Date- 10/11/2025) This cozy ranch-style cottage features stunning frontage on spring-fed Bar Lake. With 240 acres of calm, quiet waters. Bar Lake offers excellent fishing for largemouth bass, pike, and panfish. From your own dock you can launch a kayak or pontoon, cast a line, or simply soak in the breathtaking views.

Here you'll enjoy both sunrise and sunset from either side of your private beach, while being just down the road from Lake Michigan access—a favorite spot for swimming, sunbathing, and fishing. Conveniently located minutes from downtown Manistee, the Little River Casino, and numerous hiking and biking trails, this home is close to everything while still feeling tucked away.

Whether you're seeking a serene retreat, a year-round home, or an income-producing Airbnb, this Bar Lake cottage offers it all.
