Truly disappointing experience. The bbq food truck's burnt ends and brats were dismal. Not the…read morefault of the brewery. I got the lager and the nitro stout. Both tasted watered down.

The Short's Brewing Company Pull Barn is a cool concept and great for summer months. They added a…read morebunch of outdoor seating to their production facility to make it a second Short's destination. We stopped by with some friends while staying in the area and had a nice time. It was pretty busy but we were able to snag a picnic table outside. They also have some limited indoor seating as well as a huge lawn where you can picnic or bring camp chairs. The space is definitely kid-friendly and they even have a sandbox. Dogs are allowed outside as well. The beer list is pretty extensive and it was fun to try some new things like a ginger-lemongrass cider and their passionfruit canned rose wine, which was so good I bought some to take home. They don't have their own kitchen, but there were two food trucks on site and their website says you can order takeout from a nearby restaurant too. They had a musician playing the night we were there and the vibes were chill and relaxed, which I liked. I'd definitely come back in the future if I'm up this way again!

However, if you are planning on renting the pavilion for an event, BEWARE that it is a complete D.I.Y. situation with no customer service.

We had the pleasure of renting a pontoon on portage lake at the start of July 2025. Shon is the…read moremost incredible host, and it was so great to meet his daughter as well. Supporting a small, family ran business was just one of the highlights. The boat was spotless and basically new. It had everything stocked and well organized. The pick up experience was flawless and very efficient, as was the drop off at the end of the rental. Fuel is also included in the rental price, so we didn't even have to refuel at the end of the experience. I honestly can't recommend full pull enough, if you're looking for a boat rental in Manistee/Onekama, look no further. We'll definitely be back next year.

We purchased a brand new dock and wheel kit from Brandon Oaks from Pure Harbor. The wheels and kit…read more($700) were too large for the water depth. I was told there are no returns, but he could sell them for me. This was 3 years ago and now will not return my calls, texts, emails or Facebook messages. We will be bringing authorities into this situation as Brandon and this company lies and steals. He was very involved and communicated well when purchasing, now nothing.

He barely listened to what I said about the boat - that it backfired and kicked back while it was starting - and the things I had tried. He diagnosed it as a bad ignition switch.

Checked my boat thoroughly, kept me advised of problems found and progress on repairs. He was able to get my 1995 Boston Whaler, sea worthy, in less than 2 days. The cost was not even close to what I thought I would have to spend. And he did the work right in my driveway, I did not have to trailer the boat to a shop. I would definitely recommend Home Harbor for any boat issues.

We really had no idea what we were doing with lake fishing but they did everything for us and really worked hard to make sure we were having a great time! And that hard work paid off for us, we caught tons of fish!! It was so simple from beginning to end. We met them at the slip, purchased our fishing licenses there, fished and then they cleaned our catch! If we ever happen to be in this area again we will definitely be back!
