Weekend Getaway
We decided to do a little weekend getaway from MN - brought our bikes and hit the bike trail from Harbor Springs to Petoskey. Loved the area - so beautiful and charming. Would definitely come back! The house was pretty big for just the two of us, but excellent location for biking so we chose it and weren't disappointed. We loved the restaurants in the area, and traveled the Tunnel of Trees, loved the waterfront in Harbor Springs and Petoskey, hit the casino (even won some money!) and did a day trip to a couple wineries and Hop Lot in Sutton's Bay. All in all - excellent trip!

House in the woods
The house was in a beautiful setting. It was so peaceful and quiet. It had everything we needed. The host responded quickly when we had concerns about ants but the problem was eventually solved. My only concern was the stairs had no railings and that could present a problem to some. I would definitely recommend it for families or 3 couples as it is quite large. Overall it was a perfect place to celebrate a big birthday.

Great location, nice property
The home is a good value overall if you don’t expect perfection. Pros: - easy access via keypad - comfortable queen bed upstairs - fireplace - only used ecologs, could have used more - nice location, easy access to skiing and local towns within 10 minutes Cons: - wear and tear / sloppy updates - not the cleanest - chunk of dust on fans, pee on toilets, hair/fur/crumbs all over carpet and furniture, large dead flies upstairs - would appreciate more supplies rather than rationing what was provided (only 1 fire log, dishwasher pod, towel, etc per day). We ended up having to go purchase additional supplies. No soaps in bathrooms. - random kitchen collection - it would be nice to have a larger, cohesive dish and drink ware set. Didn’t love having to wash every plate/cup to have enough for the next meal. Also, would prefer to drink out of glassware instead of plastic. It would also be nice to have more than one leftovers container. There were a large variety of utensils so that kind of makes up for it.

Private getaway
We had a nice time away staying here for a week. It’s located close to the Petoskey State park and Harbor Springs. The access to the wheelway is great if that’s what you’re looking for. It’s very private and nice for fires out in the back. It is a drive to get to downtown Petoskey or Harbor Springs, but overall a good location. Property manager was responsive.

Fantastic location with all the comforts of home
Our family booked a last minute Covid Christmas Ski Trip at this home and could not have been happier with our stay. The house is located just a few minutes from both the ski resorts and downtown Harbor Springs. The home itself is beautiful and looks like it has been recently updated with newer furniture and very comfortable beds. Everything was spotless and clean when we arrived. Fabulous kitchen with all the cooking utensils you could need and a nice big dining room table. We cooked big Christmas Eve and Christmas dinners with no problem at all. The living room is very cozy with an amazing view of the surrounding woods. Lots of space and beds overall which could comfortably fit 2 families for a long stay. It was so nice to have an attached garage for our ski trip. Thanks for a great stay!

Clean and easy check in
Family of five with three daughters under 11. Easy check in process, all via email. Very clean house. Kitchen had anything you could need for meals. Outdoor space was perfect for roasting marshmallows with firewood provided. House is larger than what pictures seem to depict. Location is perfect for getting into town. Literally no issues. Thank you for sharing your home.
