Cute house in Harbor Beach Mi

We had a wonderful stay and time in the Harbor Beach area. One day was beautiful, the others a little chilly but had fun playing games, watching a movie and catching up with Friends. Great place to stay!!!

Perfectly located

The house was just as described. Clean and comfy. The tv had a few streaming channels to choose from. House was perfect. The location was great. We took our bikes and went to the beach and a ride around town. We were only about 30 minutes from Port Austin and a few wineries. Beautiful area, we will definitely be back. The owners were very nice and helpful. Thanks Eli and Michele!!

Quiet Neighborhood

I would suggest cutting the grass, cleaning the furniture, and letting people know the bathroom is far from the upstairs bedrooms. Comfortable beds, quiet neighbors, close to Marathon with awesome deli and store. Lakes are beautiful, but a little too far to walk to. No driveway.

We strive for five star ratings and are sorry you did not have a five star experience. We do our best to be forthcoming in our listing about the location of the bedrooms and bath, as well as the beach being a half mile walk from the home. Our apologies that you missed this information prior to booking and will certainly look it over to see how we can make it more clear to future guests. Thank you for staying.
