Delightful Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at the Northport Hideaway is always a relaxing time with everything we need available. The house is clean and we love having dinners on the covered porch. The location is perfect for walking to town or the beach. This year the little stream flooded the gravel road. The property management called as soon as they heard the news to check on us. Thankfully, all was well and we just had to change our route. The town had not seen flooding like that in many years and were quick to recover the area.

Such a wonderful house in a perfect location! Great size for our big family and central air is a huge plus. It’s maybe a 1 minute walk to the main road but it feels like you’re very tucked away. We absolutely loved our stay here and highly recommend. Thank you!!

Northport Hideaway

We had the worse weather!! Rain and 50 degrees all week. Plus we had a 9 month old. This cottage saved our vacation. Very comfortable living room, beds were wonderful and the kitchen table was perfect for card games, close to downtown so stroller walks with the baby was perfect. I’d highly recommend this property.

Cute, Clean, Quiet

The house was great! It was clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. We enjoyed the privacy of the yard and covered deck (although at least 3 people associated with the property or rental companly in some way showed up over the few days we were there). There is a nice creek running past, and it creates a relaxing atmosphere outside. The whole area in general is very nice - everthing is well taken care of and pretty all over Northern Michigan, not pretentious or manicured. We enjoyed it very much.
