Unique about this property? No question…the proprietors Jan and Jim…fantastic, caring customer service! They are beautiful people…go above and beyond in making guests feel welcome!!

We loved our stay, though it wasn’t nearly long enough! Jan was amazing, the manor was fascinating and the amenities were above and beyond what any hotel would offer!

Jan was an excellent hostess and an awesome chef! We had things for breakfast we never would have had otherwise. We had the pleasure of meeting Jim on our arrival. We also met Natasha who helped Jan serve breakfast on our second. On our third day, there was another woman helping Natasha serve breakfast, but I didn't get her name. She was just as lovely as everyone else. We enjoyed meeting Abigail and Jose. We saw the tortoiseshell kitty (Sophie??) who loved to be outside. The place was beautiful with plenty of Victorian items to see. I think we could go back over and over again and still see something we hadn't already seen before. The place was quiet and serene, we didn't hear any of the other guests. All in all, it was a grand slam find and we would recommend The Dempsey Manor as a great place to stay in Manistee!

The most amazing place we have ever stayed, food was unbelievable and it truly was like sleeping in a museum. Couldn’t ask for a better experience for my birthday. Words don’t describe how amazing Dempsey Manor is.

We had a very nice stay here. Beautiful home and vintage decor. Great food and very hospitable hosts.

It was very enjoyable. The home was so full of interesting antiques, felt like a well kept museum. Was especially nice having modern bathrooms.

Jan and Jim are the best. Jans breakfasts change daily and are delicious. Antiques abound. Rooms perfectly appointed and comfortable. Close to beaches and city center.

The building is an excellent example of turn of the century architecture, the staircase was magnificent but, the decor was overdone. Every room was crammed with articles (some fit the period and some were just clutter). Our room had no lock on the door, we did not feel safe. Would not return.

Decor was fire

It is a historic Bed & Breakfast. The staff is friendly and the food is great. The house is full of history and relics. The furniture and decor is dated to the period. I would stay here again. PArking is limited.

Antique Victorian Environment, fabulous food!

Walking into the Dempsey Manor is like walking into the past. The home is stunning. Our room was perfectly clean and comfortable. The breakfasts were served in courses. Fresh coffee and juice, homemade croissants, scones and yogurt, quiche, meats, fruits. They offer self serve water, tea, coffee and even wine. Our host was so sweet and welcoming!

Truly unique experience. Classic Victorian architecture, and outstanding friendly knowledgeable staff. It was an outstanding memory.

Beautiful antique home with amazing host. The gourmet breakfast was amazing.

Dempsey Manor is a B&B housed within a beautiful museum. Climate control, especially dehumidification and air conditioning is almost adequate. Ceiling fans are helpful. Breakfast is elegant and delicious. The table setting derives from the last century. Jan and her staff go all out to make a visit memorable.

A wonderful experience!

Wow what a collection of antiques and art! There is a lot to explore and one day was not enough time. Will be back.

Amazing place

I would not call the stay amazing;however, it was really nice. We did not think the breakfast was 5 star. Was it prepared fresh. Or was some of it microwaved?

Beautiful Victorian mansion- it was like staying in a museum!

Anniversary get away. What a beautiful B n B! Lovely hostess, comfortable bed (Plum Room), excellent breakfast! We would stay here again. Only con was no tv in room, but WiFi worked.

Nothing bad at all the host's were just great we loved them and everything we are coming back

Amazing victorian home full of interesting antiques, nice hosts, 3 course scrumptious breakfast.

A wondrous place with so much charm. A great experience with awesome hosts. Breakfast was divine.

Wow, what a wonderful place! Jan was a fantastic hostess and the house was unforgettable. We really felt like we stepped back in time and very much enjoyed our stay here. What an unbelievable deal for the price! The three course breakfast was very unique and delicious. The only place we would consider staying in Manistee.

Very accomodating, clean and beautiful. Jan and Jim are very helpful and great cooks.

Beautifully decorated and very clean. Excellent breakfast. Loved the 2 cats! I will be staying again and will recommend to anyone.

Loved the atmosphere and jan is a wonderful hostess. Wished for a tv though. Very clean and close to town.
