Great getaway location

This was the perfect place to stay for a winter getaway. It is located on a beautiful lake and just a few miles from plenty of restaurants, ski resorts, and shopping. Our family enjoyed this cozy haven in a winter wonderland. Would absolutely stay again!

Peaceful week on the lake.

Beautiful property, everything you need is there. It's a great location, near several towns like Petoskey, Gaylord, Boyne City. Quiet and relaxing on beautiful Harold Lake. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions. I want to go back!

Annual Girls Getaway

My sister, niece and I get away every summer for 4 - 5 days, leaving hubbies and all cares at home. This house was everything we hoped it would be, and had everything we needed allowing us to relax and enjoy each others company. The basement had two sliding doors leading to the fire pit and beach area and there were beach towels and water toys available for use in the basement. We were only an hour from Mackinaw Bridge, so we enjoyed a day of shopping in St. Ignace. Communication with the hosts was easy and responses to questions before we arrived were answered very quickly. Fully recommend this property for family or adult get away.
