There are plenty of chain hotel/motels up there.  Days Inn, etc....  Plus lots of off season rates at the local places.  Google might be a good place to start.

There is a campground /  marina on the east end of the lake that rents mobile home units.  We stayed there a couple times in the salmon fishing days.  Not fancy but good for groups.  easy access to the lake.

There is a place just outside of Wellston, about a 20 minute drive from Manistee called Coyote Crossing Resort.  Very nice cabins with a great bar/restuarant on site.  I have stayed there twice in the fall before a Manistee River Charter, and have been very happy both times
