About the host
Hosted by Sanchia Sommerville
I have lived in Northern Michigan since 1986 and my husband is born and raised here. I was born in the U.K., moved to the U.S. as a baby, but moved back to England for 2 1/2 years as a teen. Then back here to this area.
My husband and I love to travel and have stayed at places like ours in many parts of Europe and the U.S.. Our goal is to not only provide a peaceful place for you to relax, but also help you see what a beautiful place Northern Michigan is. We will always try to make ourselves available to answer questions, offer recommendations and help make your visit amazing.

Why they chose this property
We chose this area to live because we are surrounded by peace and nature. Usually every day we see deer walking through our property as well as the occasional turkey, with babies in tow. Sitting back and watching the wildlife is one our favorite things to do.
What makes this property unique
Rosebud Cottage is unique do to its location. Being centrally located between Petoskey, Harbor Springs and Mackinaw City is one very nice option. We are also located near 6 different golf courses. Then we are surrounded by fields, woods and plenty of wildlife right outside your front door.
