It was a beautiful property, spacious but not too big. Bed was comfortable and it’s in such a good area, not too far from petoskey or harbor springs. There are so many good restaurants around and we were also able to cook in the house which cut our expenses by a lot. The only small inconvenience to us was that my fiancée and I are on the taller side and we kept bumping our heads on the shower head. Still a 10/10 for us though. We highly recommend and would love the rebook when we visit the area again.
