With almost 350 feet of beautiful sandy beach frontage and dunes on a south-facing 7-mile continuous golden sand beach, you get unlimited sunshine, privacy, beauty and unending sand. Large picture windows offer expansive views of the water and sand dunes. A house-width lakeside deck with a propane grill and covered patio lets you enjoy Lake Michigan like never before. A 150 feet boardwalk takes you over the dunes to another small deck on top of the dune which leads right to the beach. An outdoor fire pit is located atop the dune, facing the lake, providing a perfect setting for a beautiful evening.

Summary: This beach is completely private and absolutely stunning. The town of Manistique is… So if you just want to be “home“ and enjoy the beach, the sunset, paddle boards, and the sugary sand. This is an absolute gem of a location. The house was nicely appointed and roomy, but the real seller is the beach. So beautiful.
