  • This is an excellent cottage for couples or families. We have stayed in lots of owner homes over the years so have lots of others to compare this to. When we arrived we were first impressed by how clean it was. It is has absolutely everything you would need for a stay. Lots of dishes, cutlery, pots, pans --- fully stocked. Other owners could learn somethings for these people! The location is private with a nice view of the ski hill. Close to 2 towns and there is a nice corner store you can walk to in 5 minutes. Our main focus was golf and this area has more nice courses per square mile than I have ever seen. We were here in the fall and the courses were not busy and all had reduced rates. There are several courses within 5 minutes of the cottage. As promised and wonderful.

  • What a wonderful home away from home ! This cottage offers all the comforts of home in a simply beatiful setting. Very peaceful. The entire rental process from start to finish was very accomdating and professional. We were actually lucky enough to be the first renters after some recent updates to the flooring and furniture. Everything was beautiful and I'm certain was just as nice prior to our visit. Do not hesitate to rent this cottage ! We visit the area annually and this was by far the best place we have ever stayed. We hope to return again.

  • We traveled up to Harbor Springs to Ski Nubs Nob and relax the first weekend after the New Year 2008 and decided to stay at the Trillium Cottage. This was our first stay here, and we are definitely planning to come back, not only during the summer, but also next winter. The location is perfect! It is located close to town, restaurants, and so convenient to the slopes. It's situated on a very nice, quiet street, and the views of Boyne Mountain were especially beautiful at night. The owner, Bob, went above and beyond our expectations in making us feel welcome. The cottage felt like our own private luxury resort complete with all of the amenities you'd expect to find at a resort in Aspen. We loved the fireplace, jacuzzi hot tub, and the open greatroom/kitchen that made coming back from a long day skiing really enjoyable and relaxing. It felt like our own home away from home! This was truly a wonderful vacation experience.

  • We stayed at the cottage for 10 days in late August/early September and plan to return twice in 2008. The owners are incredibly easy to work with, follow through with promises, and there were no negative surprises upon arrival. As an example, we have a two and a half year old son, so I asked specific questions about the bedroom layout, stair situation, etc. by phone before we rented. Bob was very up front about the fact the stair rail was being re-done at the time and he wasn't sure he would get it fixed before our rental dates (we only rented about three weeks before our stay). We went ahead with the rental because the place looked so nice and the location was exactly where we wanted to be. When we arrived, he had made sure the railing was fixed before we arrived. The best part of the cottage itself was the view of Boyne Highlands Mountain. You will be hard-pressed to find a better combination in Harbor Springs of the woodsy feel in front of the house wtih the open-feel in back. The grill and hot tub on the deck are both very high quality. The bedding (sheets, blankets, duvets, as well as the beds), TV, cable selection, and kitchen supplies were all outstanding. The master bedroom and bath are on the lower level, with the other bedrooms upstairs. The master bedroom is incredibly cozy and has a great feel to it. The master bath is a little on the small side but not unusually so for a vacation home. The upstairs rooms are well done with lots of beds (and again, very good bedding). The living room seating quality wasn't quite the level of the rest of the home but that might have just been us. Overall, the owners were very honest and helpful, we enjoyed the stay immensely, and have agreed to rent 22 days next year. That probably tells you all you need to know.

  • The Trilliam Cottage is simply awesome! Great location to skiing, golf and Harbor Springs, yet with the solitude to enjoy time as a family. The Kid's Lodge Room is equipped with total fun...PS2, pool & hockey table. Kids loved it! Beds are super cozy. We all loved our time there and will definitely rent again!

  • Stayed at Trilliam Cottage Dec 21-24, 2006 found the cottage to be the best we have ever rented. Have previously rented homes in Florida and Tennesse and this cottage exceded those by far. Enjoyed the hot tub overlooking the ski hills, the big screen tv, the lodge room with pool table and games, comfortable beds, the kitchen was also well stocked. Great cottage/home, will rent again. Great location too! Cathy Topping
