We had a delightful stay at Happy Harbor! The house was darling and spotless, kitchen well stocked, bathroom amenities were plentiful, and the beds were so comfortable! The village is very walkable, located near Indian Lake state park with plenty of walking trails and a wonderful dog park. The host was extremely nice and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, in spite of sketchy looking houses nearby. The front door stuck getting in and out, but that didn't change our impression of how nice this house is on the inside! The bath and a half worked very well and all of the amenities were just what we needed. We will stay there again, if needed.

The inside of the cottage was cute and looked just like the pictures in the listing. It was conveniently located for all of our activities. The main bath could use some refreshing including the shower liner and the bleach stained towels. The host responded to a message about a concern in a reasonable amount of time.

We had a great time the house is very cute. Only issue was it was 90 degrees and the little air conditioners cannot keep up. I actually had to go buy a box fan to help pull the air around. If it wasn’t hot it wouldn’t have been an issue but when you are on a boat all day it is nice to come back to coolness! Only other issue was change the shower liner it was a bit on the dirty side. I would recommend this location our overall stay was nice.

Comfy cottage

The Cottage was very comfy and bright. Within walking distance to various food places, lake and Dollar General. The Bed was very comfortable and the cottage had everything we needed. The check in was very easy and we had no complications with directions. Easy drive to go see the other islands and to Bellefontaine shops. Neighbors was very friendly and not much traffic on street. Our senior pet was able to go in and out with no problem. We would highly recommend and look forward to returning again.

Birthday Dog Vacation

I came for my birthday and brought my two dogs - the cottage is absolutely beautiful and spacious. The bedrooms were super cute and the beds were comfy ! The decor is fantastic and very cute. I loved playing the Nintendo and having a fire right out the door was perfect! I made so many s'mores The area was fantastic and sooooo close to the donut shop ! I walked both my dogs to the water and we went to fox Island as suggested! Such a beautiful quiet spot ! The whole area is very dog friendly and the local food is great !! I definitely plan on coming back - I cannot say enough great things about my stay !
