Perfect

We came for a Packer game and this worked perfectly for us! It was so clean and inviting! Loved that we could park in the garage, and avoid the cold elements for loading and unloading. We loved the fireplace! We’d love to go back again!

About the host

Hosted by Greg and Janet Gottsacker

Our last name is Gottsacker and in german it loosely translates to "God's Acre".
So we are naturally drawn to land and homes! With that being said, we have used VRBO quite often with 4 grown children living in 4 different locations throughout the world and we felt compelled to offer a property of our own. We also are in the Real Estate trade of listing & selling homes as well as Real Estate development and general contracting. We have a passion about hospitality and hope that your stay at "The Shoreline" will reflect that passion.

Why they chose this property

We purchased a parcel of land in Manitowoc, home of the former "Fricke" brick yard. After the brick yard business exited, the land became an overgrown piece of property with long grasses, & unkept trees and shrubs leading down to the Little Manitowoc River. We saw the potential in this land jewel situated above the river and giving us glorious lake views. So we developed a large portion of the land on Hawthorne Ct. into a condominium development and the lot on Cleveland Ave. is our investment property with a long term renter on one side and short term renters at The Shoreline, 134 Cleveland Ave.

What makes this property unique

134 Cleveland Ave. aka The Shoreline has such a great location in Manitowoc. Steps away from Lake Michigan and walking distance to downtown with shops & restaurants. Manitowoc sees the beauty of our lakeshore and it seems that new businesses are popping up every year to take advantage of this great destination!
