Step back in time and experience the charm of this one-of-a-kind 1890s custom rustic log cabin, perfectly positioned on 4 wooded acres in the heart of Northern Michigan. With over 300 feet of frontage on the peaceful and trout-rich Chase Creek—one of Manton’s hidden gems known for its clear, spring-fed waters and natural beauty—this property offers a lifestyle that’s both tranquil and adventurous. The cabin itself blends old-world craftsmanship with off-grid simplicity, featuring a well and septic, a charming outdoor bathroom/shower house, and a spacious storage shed for all your gear. Perched on an elevated ridge, the views from the cabin overlook the gently winding creek below—offering a serene setting to unwind, reflect, or create new memories. This is more than just a getaway—it's a gateway to thousands of acres of state land directly across the road, and immediate access to Northern Michigan's renowned ORV trail system. Whether you're into hunting, trail riding, or exploring the nearby Manistee River for fishing and kayaking, this property places you at the epicenter of outdoor adventure. A rare bonus: you’ll own land on both sides of Chase Creek, providing added privacy and a unique opportunity to build your dream home across the water while enjoying the cozy comforts of the original cabin. Just a short drive to Cadillac or Traverse City, this peaceful setting offers seclusion without sacrificing convenience. Rarely does a property combine this much natural beauty, usable land, and prime location. Don't miss your chance to own a slice of Northern Michigan paradise!
