This house was perfect for a family vacation up north. The location was so close to walking in Elk Rapids, tennis, and the beach. The kitchen was very well stocked with what we needed for two very large family dinners. Thanks!

Wonderful winter weekend

Great gathering place to enjoy all that Elk Rapids has to offer - dining & skating at the Dam Shop, doughnuts from the Flower Pot - all within a nice winter walk. The house was cozy, but plenty of room for everyone to be together for meals.

Cute house in Elk Rapids

This house is centrally located to all the fun things in northern Michigan. Elk Rapids is a darling town and you can walk to the beach, shops, restaurants It’s a renovated old farmhouse, which we’re good with. The pictures are spot on.

Perfect Vacation!

We had the best time at this home! There were two families, with 5 kids total, all under age 8. The layout worked well, everyone had their own space. The location was the best part- about a 5 min walk from town and the beach. We had a great time hanging out outside by the fire pit at night. Overall, great house and experience!

Charming up north home!!!

This home had everything we needed for our week stay and then some. We had plenty of space and the kitchen was very nice for making our morning meals in. The bedrooms had comfortable beds and lots of room. The fire pit in the background was a bonus too. The house was only 3-4 blocks from the beach and from downtown stores and restaurants. We definitely would come back and stay again!

Third Time and Still Charming!

This house is the perfect size for us and the perfect location! Three or four families rent houses in ER annually and this is still my favorite. It is spacious, nicely furnished and comfortable. I live the kitchen open to a large table where we all gather for meals, cards or a puzzle. We feel relaxed when we hit the front door!

Lovely, note the bathrooms are downstairs

This house in elk Rapids was lovely. It was clean and pretty and had lots of space. It would be particularly lovely in the summer with the back deck & the front enclosed porch. It would be easier for guests if there was a full stairway banister, since most of the bedrooms are upstairs and both bathrooms are downstairs.

Bank President and Media Consultant

Dear Val and Paul, Your cottage reminded us of our stay in Maine. It is so beautifully decorated and so serene at your home. We enjoyed the surroundings and downtown Elk Rapids. We loved walking along the beach viewing the crystal clear Lake Michigan. The shops are so quaint and the people in town are so down to earth and nice. The wine shop had some great wines I never heard of. You are so close to the lake and there is so much to do. We were centrally located, so we rented a boat and went pontoon boating, wine tasting, We took the kids to several places. We loved your place and hope to come back annually. I could live up here all summer long. Thank you so much for opening your beautiful second home to us. Regards, The Cuttles

70 year old friends

4 couples in 70's who get together each fall for past 15 years or so and take a trip to upper Michigan. We love the Elk Rapids, Traverse and Petoskey area. Just a note to similar travelers. Because of our ages, trips to bathroom in the night happen. This is an older home with no bathroom on second floor. The stairs squeak so you will hear a fairly steady creak during the night. And being polite we tried to be as quiet as possible which just prolongs the noise. You might want some sort of alternative with you if you fall into this category. (smiley face). Very nice neighborhood and short, easy walk to town. For our group it was nice location.

It felt like it was our home!

This cottage could not have been much better! The location in the town of Elk Rapids is perfect- walking distance to everything. The house is comfortable and roomy. We spent a lot of time with family from other cottages and often found ourselves around the large dining table with chairs pulled in from around the room. The large laundry room gave us a spot to drop beach gear without tracking sand through the house. The amenities are just right. Nice enough dishes, glasses, etc. without feeling nervous about using them! The deck was a nice spot for morning coffee. We were sorry there wasn't time to use the backyard fire pit, or to organize a tetherball tournament!! AC was a nice treat during this hot week! Family members have rented this cottage before and we were lucky enough to snap it up first! We are definitely coming back.

Bride's last night of being single

We stayed in this lovely, historical home prior to and after our daughter's wedding in Elk Rapids, which is a nice place for a "destination wedding". The landlord allowed us to stay for a shortened stay as the wedding was not during the peak season. She was married at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church and the reception was at the Elk Rapids township hall. The home and the hall were both historical landmarks, which was very interesting. The location of the house was perfectly accessible for both venues. We enjoyed the services of the Beehive salon, which provided many spa services and helped to make the bride feel like a princess. The house was perfect with planning of room for our guests including my 91 year old mother, who had no trouble getting around the first floor. Everything that we needed was there. The decor was lovely... the colors and amenities made us feel very special. We have no complaints and would certainly use this home again... perhaps the next time for a vacation instead of to host and facilitate a wedding. The landlord was available by phone to answer any questions that we had. The only thing that we had difficulty with was the Direct t.v. as we were not familiar with how to access it for our 91 year old guest.

Great Location

Our family has rented a cottage each summer in a different locations for many, many years. My husband and I, two teens, my sister and her spouse rented this house for a week last summer. The place is clean, spacious and decorated like a home in Crate and Barrel catalog. The location is within walking distance of main street and the beach. When we weren't out exploring the area, we mostly hung out on the really nice back deck. We all enjoyed the Tether Ball in the backyard, and bonfires most nights. Elk Rapids is such a wonderful town to vacation in, it was our second time. As mentioned in another review, both (really nice) bathrooms are on the first floor. Not easy to navigate in the middle of the night. My daughter LOVED the pink bedroom upstairs. My sister and her husband loved the Master Bedroom on the main floor. The bedroom upstairs that my husband and I picked only had a full size bed (bouncy if you have a spouse that turns a lot during the night) and one outlet in the opposite corner of the room. Also, no nightstands; so no place to plug in a cell phone or have a lamp. I ended up sleeping in the room with the two twin beds with my son. That was very comfortable. Minor inconvenience for such and beautiful, well-stocked home (except for having to bring our own toilet paper). I would highly recommend this home!

Beautiful location, house/listing needs cleaning/updates

I tried to email the owners before writing this review but VRBO didn't allow communications post rental. We stayed at this home for a week and I just couldn't wait for the week to end. It was stressful and a lot of work on my end and I left the house in better shape than when I arrived. We spent a week at this home at the end of June. Had it been July or August, it would have been very miserable as the upper floor does not have air conditioning and gets very warm. We did appreciate the window fans provided however, these details should be noted in the listing. The game room has no games and there is no Gamecube as noted in the listing. I spent the first day cleaning as the bathrooms were loaded with mold in and around the tub, shower and moldings. The air fresheners located in multiple areas gave me an instant headache. I had to search for them and unplug them and then air out the whole house. The kitchen table and chairs need to be replaced or refinished as the finish is very sticky. I appreciated the no shoe rule at first, but the carpets and floors left our feet and socks black. The grill needs to be replaced as well. It does not get hot and when you lower the top, charred black, rusty flakes fall all over your food leaving one no choice but to start all over washing off the flakes on each piece of meat and then having to use the oven instead. The house itself is old and beautiful and has so much potential. I just really feel like either the cleaning person isn't doing their job or the owners don't check in on the home too often. If this house was $1,000 less per week, I would let all of the above slide. But this was our only vacation and it cost a lot of money. I spent the week very frustrated and not able to relax. We have rented many times before and have never had these issues.

Amazing Stay

This was a great location. Few blocks from the beach and the adorable downtown. All around wonderful time. Only downside were the beds. Several places to sleep but only one bed big enough for a couple. And, no upstairs bathroom. If you had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night you had to go downstairs. Otherwise it was one of our best family vacations yet. We'd stay again.
