Petoskey getaway

Bear Creek Retreat was very clean, and had all the amenities one could want. We had a great time, and I would recommend this to anyone looking to see northern Michigan/Petoskey area as it was less than 10 minutes from downtown, kayaking, and hiking trails.

Fun place to stay in Petoskey

I was very pleased with this rental house. It’s spacious with lots of beds, lots of outdoor space, and was clean. We had teenagers in our group and they really enjoyed the pool table, arcade games, hot tub and fire pit. The host was very responsive and friendly as well.

Great Getaway

We had an amazing stay and are grateful for Erich for being such a wonderful host in accommodating our family for the weekend in Petoskey. The home was even more spacious than it seemed in photos and exceeded expectations. Even with 12 guests, we never felt cramped. There was plenty of seating, indoor and outdoor. There were lots of games and activities to keep us entertained when we were not out exploring the beauty of Petoskey. The house is in such an ideal location, tucked back away in the woods it feels secluded yet is a quick drive to all of the Petoskey favorites and of course Lake Michigan. We would definitely recommend visiting!
