Beautiful views of Little Traverse Bay and a spacious wraparound deck

Perfectly located between Bay Harbor and downtown Petoskey, this fully remodeled home is an ideal spot for your Northern Michigan escape. With beautiful views of Little Traverse Bay and a spacious wraparound deck, it’s easy to start your day with coffee and end it with a sunset.

This four-bedroom, two-bath home offers plenty of space for families or groups to relax and unwind.

As you enter, you’ll pass through a convenient mudroom and laundry area—perfect for storing ski or snowboard gear in the winter months. From there, you’ll step into the lower level, which features one of the two primary bedrooms. This suite includes a king bed, an electric fireplace, and a nearby full bathroom with a walk-in shower. You’ll also find a cozy family room on this level with walkout access to a patio.

Upstairs, the home opens into a bright, open-concept living space with access to both the wraparound deck and a sunroom. The kitchen is designed for gathering, with plenty of counter space, barstool seating, and two dining areas that comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests.

This level also includes the remaining bedrooms. One guest room features a full bed, while another includes a full bed along with a twin-over-full bunk—great for kids. The second primary bedroom offers a king bed, and a shared full bathroom includes a double vanity and a bathtub.

Outside, don’t miss the chance to take in the stunning sunsets over Little Traverse Bay. The fire pit is the perfect place to end the day, whether you’re roasting marshmallows or simply enjoying the view.

The house is even nicer than it looks on VRBO - our group was comfortable, everything was beautiful, and we enjoyed great views from the deck. I would very happily stay here again. Of particular note, the kitchen is very well equipped for those of you cooking on vacation!

Nice house in great location

The property was very peaceful with a great view of the lake from the top floor of the house and the deck. The house was clean and ready on time when we got there. The downstairs bedroom and bathroom were a little cold/damp, but they provide an electric heater in the bedroom to counteract this. Kitchen was well stocked with tools, pans, etc. Location was very convenient to downtown Petoskey, as well as other towns like Charlevoix and Harbor Springs. Highly recommend a day in Mackinac Island and going to Thorne Swift Nature Preserve!

Bathrooms, bedrooms and living spaces are all well suited for a group like ours. Views of the bay from the house are a bonus and very nice. Lots of rules from the management but we somehow managed not to break any. I would definitely stay here again or recommend should the need ever arrise.

Great space for family gathering

Our 3 adult sons and their spouses and grandchild stayed together. The lower level has bedroom and bath with great family room. Upstairs easily held us all for meals and the two bathrooms were enough. It's easy to get around town from. Lake views are beautiful.

Beautiful view

The house is beautiful decorated. The beds were very comfortable. We loved sitting the deck with the view the bay. The grounds are very well kept. Close to Bay Harbour and to downtown. Our only complaint was that the deck area should have been cleaned up more to get rid of webs.

Great stay with views of the bay!

This was a great house for two families of four. The house was clean and had more than enough space for us. The kiddos enjoyed playing in the side yard, and the parents loved the bay views on the deck and fire pit. Easy to get to Petoskey, Bay Harbor and Charlevoix. Nice park across the street too. The house is beautifully decorated so those with children younger than 4 may need to kiddo proof a bit (a tip, not a complaint). We would definitely return to the property!
