Great communication with the host/property manager. Very friendly, helpful, professional. The property was as described, clean, well-supplied. We spent a lot of our time biking, so the location right along the bike path was perfect. Petoskey State Park was just a handful of driveways down. We went there 2 evenings in a row and spent time on the beach enjoying the sunset. Very good experience overall.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review for your stay! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your time up north! We hope to host you again in the future.
The house was a perfect location to use as a base camp for family excursions to Petoskey, Charlevoix, and Harbor Springs — location to Petoskey state park was a plus. The house itself was great, very clean; beds were confortable and the house was stocked with everything we needed to spend a week away.
