Shaffer Haus-Downtown Riverfront Retreat

Immerse yourself in the rich history of Downtown Manistee with our newly renovated and updated riverfront apartment. Enjoy views of the bustling downtown area, as well as peaceful moments overlooking the Manistee River. Our riverside apartment is also perfectly situated for enjoying popular local events like Sleighbell Weekend and Forest Festival.

​Upon arrival, you will ascend the entryway staircase 24 steps up to our spacious apartment with an open-concept floor plan. The rental is located over Port City Emporium gift shop, which we also own. Whether you're preparing a meal in the fully equipped kitchen, lounging in the cozy living room, taking in the views of a freighter making its way down the river, or gathering around the dining table playing games with loved ones, you will appreciate the freedom and flexibility of this thoughtfully designed space.
