Wonderful clean cute cottage in great location

We stayed a week in this great cottage which was walking distance to downtown. Everything was clean and cozy. We didn't get to use the provided bikes or kayaks but will do so next time we stay there. Definitely look forward to returning. It had everything we needed.

Perfection

If you are looking for a super clean, nicely decorated, a wonderful stocked kitchen, comfy beds and easy check in, I highly recommend Bruce & Mary Sue’s cottage! The location in Harbor Springs was perfect for all our day trips. Our family of five give it a 10/10 rating. Robin

Perfect rental in Harbor Springs!

This place has everything you need. The owners are extremely accommodating and check-in was a breeze. The location can’t be beat. You are across the street from a community park where our kids loved to skate and we all played pickle. Kayaks and bikes offered were icing on the cake. We will be back!

Harbor Springs Happy Place

Mary Sue and Bruce: Best hosts, attention to detail, welcome wine, superb house, all the amenities, boat house decor, fantastic kitchen, wonderful beds, outdoor spaces, kayaks, bikes, grill, walk to beach and town. All you could ask for made this the most enjoyable week one could experience in the idyllic lakeside town of Harbor Springs. We hope to have the privilege of staying there again next year and for years to come. Very best to all who have the pleasure of their hospitality. Wini & Joe Cincinnati, OH

Beautiful!

This home is perfect! There are so many touches that made our stay very comfortable. Entire home is completely remodeled. Very comfortable living area for our family of 5. Kitchen easy to use with all necessary utensils. Patio was wonderful to relax on. Lots of seating. I wish it was a tiny bit closer to town but the weather was perfect so the walk was manageable. We went to Petoskey State Beach several days because the kids liked the bigger beach and waves. Highly recommend this property!

Perfect

This house was more than we could have ever imagined for our vacation to Harbor Springs. From the moment we booked, Bruce and Mary Sue reached out with tons of helpful information, went above and beyond to accommodate extra requests and needs we had, and they were available at all times with anything else we needed. Their house was picture perfect and comfortably fit 4 adults and 2 toddlers. We enjoyed walking downtown almost every night and loved having the park across the street with the kids. The cottage was super clean, beautifully updated, beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was spectacular, and we loved sitting on the back porch every night. We will 100% stay here again next time we visit Harbor Springs.

Great house and location!

I stayed here with 4 adults for 5 nights. We found the house to be really comfortable and cozy. The back porch and the kitchen island made for really good congregating spots. From the minute we walked in, we knew it was going to be a great place. The kitchen was very well stocked for us to make meals at home. The bathrooms were really clean and set up well. The home overall was very clean and well organized. It was an easy walk to downtown from there and the Harbor Grocery store is just down the road. Communicating with Mary Sue was great! They have set up their rental to be easy to use, starting with the great introduction email and instructions. I would happily stay here again.

A wonderful week in Harbor Springs!

We loved our relaxing week at Mary Sue and Bruce's beautiful cottage home in Harbor Springs! The house is on the edge of town, steps from the water, shops, restaurants and lovely vistas. The decor is well done, with all modern appliances that are super easy to use. The rental also comes with two kayaks and two bikes. We had planned to use the kayaks, but there were so many other things to do that we never even got them out of the garage! The home comes with super helpful instructions/information on everything and Mary Sue was friendly and responsive before and during our stay. We would love to make this an annual trip for our family. :-)
