Newly updated, charming Harbor Springs Cottage, minutes to beaches and downtown.

Charming Harbor Springs Cottage. Steps to Downtown & Near Beautiful Beaches

New to VRBO and freshly updated, Fern Cottage is a lovingly restored Harbor Springs escape where timeless Victorian charm meets thoughtfully curated design. Tucked between Roaring Brook and Wequetonsing in one of Harbor Springs' most coveted neighborhoods, this intimate cottage is surrounded by mature trees and just a short drive from some of Lake Michigan's best public beaches. Beautiful place for walks and bike rides.

The Space

Step onto the large covered front porch, the heart of this home, where morning coffee catches the early sun, and you'll want to linger into the evening after a day exploring the beach or browsing downtown galleries. Inside, beautiful Douglas fir walls and original hardwood floors painted ground the space with warmth and character. Natural light streams through the french windows, illuminating a cozy fireplace that invites you to settle in. Two full baths include one with a charming clawfoot bathtub and shower, and another with shower, offering comfort and convenience.

Every detail has been chosen with intention. Furnishings from Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn—crisp linens, down pillows, slipcovered pieces, layered textures—create spaces that invite you to sink in on a rainy afternoon, curl up with a book on a snowy day, or wind down with a glass of wine on the porch at the end of the day. Newly updated kitchen with a Wolf Range, Carrara marble countertops, and freshly painted throughout. Webber Gas Grill for cooking out, and new beds with luxury linens, robes and towels provided. This is a cottage designed for lingering: morning rituals on the porch, quiet afternoons, and the kind of comfort that makes you reluctant to leave.

Location

Harbor Springs —quaint, nostalgic, walkable. Fern Cottage puts you right in the heart of it: a short bike ride to downtown's galleries, shops, and restaurants, with Zoll Beach just a mile away for your Lake Michigan days, all surrounded by mature trees and village charm.
