About this house rental
A rare find right on Little Traverse Bay with a view of Harbor Springs and a cache of petoskey stones on the beach. A fire pit and a balcony with a creek running right through to the bay. A short walk up the street takes you to bicycle and kayak rentals. You could stay gone all day just bicycling and come back for a bonfire on the beach.
The Tunnel of Trees is only a few miles away and a beautiful drive in the fall as the trees show their colors. You can continue up the coast to small towns and end up at the Mackinaw Bridge.
Winter brings snow and there are downhill ski areas as well as cross country ski areas. Boyne Falls offers both. Nubs Nob in Harbor Springs is also close by. Snowmobile trails are ubiquitous but please inquire in advance so we can tell you where to park your trailers.

We had a wonderful month long stay at The Happy Place.
The location is amazing----from both large sets of picture windows in the living room you look out on Little Traverse Bay----even on a rainy day you feel like you are "right there"sitting by the water. The host was terrific and we were just a two minute drive/seven minute walk from the Gaslight District in Petoskey--- yet also close enough for me to get to Boyne Highlands golf courses in about 15 minutes. We will definetly be back to this ideal location and cozy home.

It was as nice as listed . The view out of the living room and two of the bedrooms was awesome. Nice place for being a older property. Far exceeded our expectations. To bad a bug hatching was a inconvenience. Would stay there again.Thanks Thomas Farmer.

This charming waterfront cottage in Petoskey was great! We stayed during winter and enjoyed skiing the nearby resorts, and the wintery waterfront view was nice to have. The operator was very responsive to messages. Highly recommend!

Excellent view of Little Traverse Bay. Close to everything. Disappointment with TV. Could not obtain usual cable channels live, only streaming stuff. No directions for using Spectrum, not even from the local Spectrum office! Otherwise, we had a great time.

The host is wonderful. Tried extremely hard. But there was no TV. Despite our best efforts. May have went better if there were games to play? Since tv wouldn't work. Host went all out trying to get it to work. They think they came up w a solution, but in case, come up with a back up plan for dark evening s and nothing to do. Was wonderful spot to look for petsokey stones. Their housekeeper needs to do a better job for how much money she receives on the cleaning. How hard is it to dust the furniture? Vacuum the food crumbs out of the chairs? Oh well, it was our first VRBO and it will be our last. Maybe it's just not my cup of tea. We thought it would work better than a hotel but it didn't. Hotel was cheaper and had tv, and cleaning lady. I would have liked it to go better. Really liked host. But I'm being truthful.
