Family Vacation near Harbor Springs

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: Great stay in well equipped condo. We did not house full amount of people so we were very comfortable. Loft would have provided less privacy for some and two baths tight for 11 but it worked very well for us! Close to family staying in Menonaqua. Harbor Cove Amenities are nice, although we did not use pool or activity center. Would definitely stay again!

Thank you so much for the wonderful five-star review of Secluded Harbor Springs Condo. We are thrilled to hear that you had a great stay and found the condo well equipped, comfortable, and a good fit for your visit. It is always rewarding to know a Northern Michigan vacation rental provided the space, convenience, and relaxing setting guests are looking for during an Up North getaway. We appreciate your thoughtful comments about the loft, privacy, and bathroom layout. Feedback like this is helpful for future guests planning group stays, and we are glad the setup worked very well for your group. It is also wonderful to hear that the location was convenient for being close to family in Menonaqua and that you enjoyed the Harbor Cove amenities, even if you did not use the pool or activity center. Thank you again for choosing Secluded Harbor Springs Condo. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to welcome you back for another Harbor Springs vacation with Northern Michigan Escapes.

Family Ski trip

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: Had a great time. Condo is close to the slopes and well maintained. Only minor issue we had is if you sleep in the bedroom closest to the entrance the street light shines directing into the bed room and the curtains are pretty thin. I have rented this condo twice and would recommend it and I would stay here again.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 Feb, 2026
Thank you for the five star review and for choosing the Secluded Harbor Springs Condo again for your ski getaway. We are so glad to hear you had a great time, found the condo well maintained, and appreciated how close it is to the ski slopes, cross country trails, and all the four season outdoor recreation that Harbor Springs and the surrounding Petoskey and Boyne Highlands area offer. Having guests return for a second stay is one of the best compliments a Harbor Springs vacation rental can receive. We also really appreciate you mentioning the minor issue with the street light shining into the bedroom near the entrance and the thin curtains. That is very helpful, actionable feedback. We will review options for adding blackout curtains or a liner in that room so future guests who are light sensitive can enjoy a darker, more restful night’s sleep after a long day on the ski hills, golf courses, or nearby Lake Michigan beaches. Thank you again for recommending the condo and saying you would stay here again. We look forward to welcoming you back for another Northern Michigan getaway.

Great condo getaway!

This condo was perfect for a family getaway! Enough space to sleep, hang out and cook with the family. The private beach is just a short walk away and offered great swimming for the kids. A pool and playground is just around the corner if the beach isn't your thing. It is conveniently located to get to downtown Harbor Springs or Petoskey.

Rented for Zoo-de-mack

We tended this condo for our group of 11, for Zoo-de-Mack weekend. The set up was perfect for us , very comfortable, and plenty of room. The only draw back was the 10 am check out which we thought was a little much, as most hotels , motels andVORB that I have stayed in have 11am or 12 pm check out . All in all it was a great stay🤗

Clean, cozy, and fully equipped.

The condo was loaded with everything you need for your stay from toilet paper to plastic sandwich bags. The pool was nice and within walking distance. The property owner didn’t mention the public beach access to us even when asked about it, so we ended up driving further than we needed to. Other waist, the stay was great. Perhaps a check in binder with basic information would be helpful (garbage location, beach access, internet password, etc.)
