Learn what the locals know!! The best time to be in Northern Michigan is when the crowds are not!! Consider early June, the greenest and most beautiful time of the summer season or late August and early September, the weather is still warm and the water is warmer!! Less traffic, no lines, immediate seating, EMPTY BEACHES, etc… All this and you save $1200-$2000 off your booking!
OPEN YEAR ROUND!
Located on Lake Michigan - We are just over 10 miles from both Nub's Nob and Boyne Highlands.
This home features 150' of private sandy frontage and is on the "Tunnel of Trees". You're close to such destinations as Petoskey, Charlevoix, Cross Village, The Inland Water Way and The Straits of Mackinaw.
New for 2006, this cottage style home has 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and a total living area 2,400 sq. ft. Plenty of room to spread out. This house is truly designed with the family in mind, with separate spaces for the grown-ups and kids alike.
Vintage Mod, Baby! It's luxurious, with a retro feel - sure to evoke a flashback or two. The shag carpeting, custom ceramic tile, custom woodwork and a mix of retro antiques and custom furniture (not to mention a few surprises), will help make this a vacation to remember.
Located in Harbor Springs opposite Lake Michigan on the famous Tunnel of Trees - a popular destination for bicyclists. You're close to such vacation spots as Petoskey, Charlevoix, Cross Village, The Inland Water Way and The Straits of Mackinaw.
Atop this 130' bluff, witness panoramic views that will allow you to see all the way to Charlevoix and on some days even Beaver Island! Enjoy these views from the home as well as from the meandering bluffside staircase with secluded sun deck that leads to 150' of very private sandy frontage on Lake Michigan.

Why the Owner Chose Harbor Springs
The Surf Cottage has 4 acres of privacy with sandy Lake Michigan frontage. It is also on the "Tunnel of Trees", which was voted by AAA to be the most scenic road in all of Michigan. Our beach is so private that we've never seen any one else on the entire shoreline.
The Unique Benefits at this House
You will enjoy the 60's themed decor along with the library, vinyl records and the 60's themed movies and TV shows.
