About this property
Cozy, Clean, In-Town, Cottage - Walk to town. Dogs Welcome!
Cozy and clean 2 bedroom cottage on Lake Street a few blocks from downtown Harbor Springs. Bathroom was fully renovated in spring 2023. It's a short walk to, downtown restaurants and shopping, and a quick drive to golf courses, Pond Hill Farm, the Tunnel of Trees, and ski areas. Our dog-friendly cottage has a well-equipped kitchen, dining area, 2 TVs, high-speed wifi, 2 queen beds with new mattresses, parking, and a large back yard with seating and a fire pit. The house is professionally cleaned between guests and includes fresh sheets, bath towels, and beach towels for your stay.
During the summer there is a window AC unit that keeps the whole house cool and comfortable. Our dog-friendly and kid-friendly house has all the amenities of home in a great location convenient to all that Northern Michigan has to offer.
Relax in the living room on a cozy couch and pair of comfy club chairs. The renovated bathroom has built-in shelving, a new shower and all new fixtures. There is a small breezeway next to the kitchen and adjacent laundry room with shelves/hooks for your winter or lake gear! Other things you'll find to make your stay easy and enjoyable: playing cards, puzzles, extra blankets and pillows, wine/bottle openers, paper towel, toilet paper, dish and hand soap, and hangers.
The house is situated on a large lot with a big and mostly private yard that backs up to trees on two sides. You'll be just a few blocks from amazing views of Little Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan!

About the host
Hosted by Maureen Tyler

My husband and I are originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan. We have spent time in Atlanta, San Francisco, Dallas, and Denver, but Michigan is home. Harbor Springs is a special place, where we have had some of our favorite meals, walks, scenic drives, and beach picnics. We are dog people, love to travel, and spend time with our families!
Why they chose this property
The Little Blue Cottage is quaint, clean, recently updated, and just what a family or group of friends need for a great getaway in Northern Michigan. When we walked in, our first thought was: this is somewhere we would like to vacation. Our home is situated in a quiet but central neighborhood close to downtown - a short walk or bike ride.
What makes this property unique
The cottage is spacious and open enough to feel warm and welcoming, but quaint enough to give you the privacy and comforts of home. We have equipped the house and decorated to make it feel as comfortable and accommodating as possible. The large but private back yard and short walk to see Little Traverse Bay are reminders of the beauty Northern Michigan has to offer all year round. We love it here and hope you do too!
