Why choose Manistee for the holidays

• Charming, walkable downtown. Brick-lined streets, boutiques, galleries, and coffee shops—perfect for gift shopping before (or after) the big meal.

• Room to breathe. Quieter than peak summer, but full of winter magic and holiday events.

• Outdoor fun for every age. Hike forest trails, cast a line on the Big Manistee River, or enjoy bonfires under starry dark-sky nights. In winter, add cross-country and fat biking at Big-M, downhill at Crystal Mountain or Caberfae Peaks, snowmobiling, and even winter paddling and steelhead/ice fishing.

• Easy days, low stress. From coffee-and-cookie strolls to sledding and game nights, it’s simple to plan memory-rich days.
