Escape To The Lake! Boat Launch Nearby and Close To All Northern Michigan Fun

This fabulous property boasts all of the luxurious amenities you desire including spacious living areas, shared lake access to Crooked Lake, a boat launch five minutes down the road, and quick trips to all of your favorite resort towns: Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Boyne City, Mackinac City/Island, and more. Plenty of space to grill out, play yard games, and enjoy your friends and family!

You will be welcomed through the front door with new hardwood flooring and a neutral palette. A nice size kitchen with granite counter tops – perfect for cooking instead of always going out to eat. Enjoy your meals at the dining table that seats eight or continue the summer and fall nights at the outside dining. The main level of the home also offers a half bath and the spacious primary suite – complete with heated bathroom floors and a large walk-in shower. Heading up the stairs, you will find a nice landing area to sit and read or for kids to play games. There are two large bedrooms and one full bath on this level as well. If the landing area is not enough for kids to relax, they can also enjoy the second “living” arrangement in the bedroom to watch TV. This home offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience!

Great stay on near the Lake
We had a total of 6 people renting the house for a wedding at Petosega Camp. It was about a 10 minute drive, so location was great! All the bedrooms were super nice for our adult kids and spouses. They loved the Pac-Man game! Throwback for sure!! The library had a super good choice of books per my daughter-in-law.. I personally liked the heated bar in the master bathroom. Cute little house! I will stay there again if we get up in that area again!

Summerside Drive
We had a great time Up North. This was a good location, close to Petoskey and Mackinac Island. House was very clean and well equipped. Back door to deck was hard to lock but we figured it out after a few minutes!

Beautiful house with very nice decor and top notch amenities. Owner gave thorough information leading up to our stay and was quick to respond to any questions we had. This was a great place for our kids and grandkids to hangout for the week and had many great things to do within close vicinity.

Harbor/Alanson home
This home is absolutely beautifully decorated. The designers didn't think with the the master shower. Its extremely slippery and i took a fall. Our chore list led us way out of the way to take out the trash as they had to leave a map to get to the can. Tried to put the tv on for the kids while we got ready for our day trip out and it didn't work properly. No biggie we moved on and one of us entertained them. They're sticklers for cleanliness yet there is diapers in the landscaping and something unidentifiable as well. Beautiful home as i said but definitely not as welcoming as some we have stayed at. We chose to just be there to sleep sadly would likely not rent in the future or for extended stay. ESPECIALLY since we got zero response when we messaged them directly while there. To be clear we searched for rentals in Harbor springs this on popped up. Check in process was actually the worst, as far as the MANY emails and texts plus the difficult online paperwork. I hope they work on this a little so families can relax when visiting.
