Breathtaking property

We spent a long weekend in Northport for a wedding and then made it a mini family vacation. This house was perfect for us needing 5 different sleeping spaces. All of our adult children and significant others and kids were able to fit comfortably. We especially enjoyed the location (right across from Lake Michigan and a wonderful park), walking distance to the local shops, and spacious living room for us all to have a movie night with the whole family! Memories made that will last a lifetime. Thank you!!!

Reunion

The home was everything they indicated! Two families have been going up to Northport for over 20 years reuniting with another local family. Since our families have grown we needed another place and had so much fun with the 3rd generation. We would definitely come back!

Perfect Wedding house

Great house. Well equipped kitchen. Great TV. Large bedrooms upstairs. So close to town and water. Only suggestions I would make is to put hanging racks in the bedrooms, list the size of beds on Vrbo and a new coffee maker, just a simple drip one would be so much easier. Will definitely stay there again!! And many of our wedding guests plan to make a return trip and stay here.

Weekend stay for a wedding.

House was very clean and nice. Kitchen is big enough for multiple people to cook in and well equipped with cooking ware. Bedrooms are of good size with comfortable beds. The back yard is of good size for plenty of activities. The only disappointments that we had, though they were very minor and did not ruin our stay what so ever, is that there were no place to hang clothes and the toilet paper supply was short for eight people staying four days. Both of these were easily remedied and we had a wonderful weekend. We would definitely stay again.

Meticulous Beautiful Property

We had a great weekend!! The house is spotless and gorgeous. Beds comfy and the front porch and views were delightful. Kids liked walking into town and having the beach right there. My son fished off the pier. Great coffee shop and brewery around the block as well as a small grocery store, ice cream place and a couple other little restaurants. Great location!!!! There is 1 bedroom downstairs and 4 upstairs. 1 full bath downstairs and 1 full bath upstairs. Our king bed was amazingly comfortable.

Perfect Northport family reunion.

The Beach House is perfect for a reunion with kids old enough to enjoy the park and beach across the street. The house is so comfortable and clean. Great back yard, but those front porches! Would like to see more direct contact with owners and less hassle going through vrbo once the deposit is paid.

About the host

Hosted by Danny and Joni Scott

My husband and I were married in August of 2006. The day before our wedding my husband agreed to purchase (without telling his future wife) this house from his family. In October of 2006 the purchase was finalized, and we began renovations! Our first weekly rental reservation was made in the mist of the renovations February 2007, at that time we had no windows in the house. The reservation was the driving force to complete the renovations in just 8 months.
My husband Dan was born and raised in Northport, and I grew up in Northern Michigan, and moved to Northport in 1998. Danny has owned his own business since 1999 as a Builder, and I am the Village of Northport Elected Clerk since 2010. We have three kids, twin daughters and one son.
