My wife and I stayed in the home for a long weekend with my father-in-law (85 years old) and our son (23), and our dog. It was an ideal home base for our weekend. There was plenty of room for all, including a first floor room with attached bathroom for my father-in-law, a cozy living room to hang out, a fully equipped kitchen for cooking, etc. The location was also great -- 10 minutes to Harbor Springs, 20 minutes to the nearest public beach on the Lake, 20 minutes from Wilderness State Park. The house itself was in a quiet, peaceful area of the woods, right near Nubs Nob and Boyne Highlands. The host was very communicative, flexible and accommodating and helpful.

Fun on the Slopes!

This is our third year staying at the Chalet for our annual ski trip, and it never disappoints! It’s a fantastic location for skiing at Nubs or Boyne Highlands. The garage is perfect for storing ski gear, and the chalet has everything you need. The hosts are incredible—already looking forward to coming back!

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!

One of our favorite rentals ever. They supply everything you need for a perfect getaway. Living room has plenty of comfortable seating. Beds were comfortable. The lot is gorgeous (beautiful sunsets) and some wooded area where you can do a little sledding. The Host are very responsive to any questions you may have. If I could rate higher I would. Definitely plan on staying here again..

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.

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.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Hidden Hamlet and love walking the neighborhood at night taking in the charm of the chalets. (yaktrax recommended!)

We have stairs! 3 flights to be exact - lots of room to spread out.

We hope you'll enjoy our home and treat it like your own - we put the best in here so you can enjoy it, too!
