Exercise Chalet
We go up to Harbor Springs every summer for a week. Liked this place a lot. Easy drive to downtown. We all ate too much at the great restaurants and stayed in shape climbing stairs at the Chalet multiple times a day. Liked the garage entrance. Great Host. Hope to rent it again sometime.

The house was perfect for us. It is well-equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. The room at the bottom of the stairs was perfect for changing in and out of snowsport boots and apparel without tracking anything into the house. We would stay here again!

Comfy and stocked
This house had super comfy beds and couch. We enjoyed warming up by the gas fireplace. It was great to have the K-cups for coffee and other household items so we didnt have to pack anything extra like ziplocs, condiments,etc. Close to Nubs and Highlands so we could freely go back and forth during the day.

Lots of room and plenty of beds. Kitchen was stocked with anything you need. Large deck for out door grilling. Only cons are, the steep driveway, lots of stairs and the washer makes a loud banging when draining water. But over all 100% great place to stay.

Close to ski hills
Cute little place with a lot of potential. Seems like a nice neighborhood. Convenient to Nub’s Nob and the Highlands. Very steep driveway that is almost unnavigable in the winter with even a small amount of snow cover. We arrived after dark and it took us about 30 minutes and 5 bags of salt to make it up near the garage with a four wheel drive Jeep. We were thankful that the owners left several bags of salt in the garage, but we weren’t anticipating having to salt the driveway upon arrival. Took awhile to locate the “front” door in the dark. Lots of stairs and tight spaces inside, which was fine for us but might be an issue for older or less mobile people. Could use some TLC, but was fine for a couple nights.

We’ve rented 3 other homes in the area. This one was the best. Plenty of room to hang out - two TV spaces for kids and adults to hang or plenty of room to be all together. Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of towels. Easy access to Nubs. We’ll be back!

Closet to it all!
The blue door chalet was a great home base for our "up north" vacation! From this central location, we were easily able to go biking, hiking, boating, shopping, and star gazing! The owners were incredibly responsive and helpful, and have really gone to a lot of trouble to make your stay a great one! The kitchen has all new appliances and everything you could need (and more!), bathrooms were super clean, and the view from the comfy couch in the family room is fantastic! We especially enjoyed the new grill and patio furniture, HE washer and dryer and access to the garage to store our bikes and other gear! As one review mentioned, one bedroom is an "open loft" as shown in the pictures so be prepared for downstairs noise to carry up to the people sleeping up there, but our kids loved being up there! Also, the kitchen table is a little tight if you have a full house, but we were able to squeeze in together when needed. Thanks, Katie, for all you did to help us have a great trip!
