Map & Owner's Profile
Downtown Duplex (2 Units) with Views of Park, Beach, & Church
Year Purchased: 1996
Why the Owner Chose Harbor Springs
My best friend, Carol, who grew up spending summers and holidays in the area always told me how beautiful and special this whole area of Michigan is and especially the city of Harbor Springs. So, when I visited in 1996 I learned how true her words are. I thought it would be a wonderful place to spend with family and friends...and it is!
The Unique Benefits at this House
The location of The Park View House is perfect. It borders the park with the public beach, shops and restaurants, and yet it is private. The views of the park, church and bay are the best of Harbor Springs. It is just a short walk to the dogie beach. Currently it is being managed by Paul who also manages The New York Restaurant and offers a coupon for two for one dining during your stay.

I just retired after working 38 years as a special education teacher. I am looking forward to spending more time in Harbor Springs. Here I am with my son, Eric and three grandchildren Antonia, Zane, and Cale, and my sister, Gertrude who helps with the garden.

Our extended family (3 generations) rented both units in early August. We loved being so close to the beach and downtown. Enjoyed the farmer's market right outside our front door! And were treated to a car show at the park across the street!

Our family stayed in the bottom unit for the week of August 15-22, 2009. We loved the location. Everything was in walking distance. It made it very convenient. We really enjoyed our stay at this place. It is a very quaint unit, not air conditioned, but the fans provided kept things cool. We would definitely stay here again. The church bells rang very early but after the first day you get used to it. I am a morning person, so I didn't really mind it. The owner was very nice. Thanks, Patricia, for holding the unit and calling me to remind me about it! Teri
