About this property

Charming Condo on the Bike Path, Minutes to Petoskey and Harbor Springs!

ABOUT THE RENTAL
Perfectly placed in between Petoskey and Harbor Springs this two bedroom, one bath condo is the perfect “Northern Michigan Getaway!” If you are looking for a quaint rental that is still close to lots of activities, then look no further. Located just 5 minutes to Petoskey and 7 minutes to Harbor Springs offering you plenty of options for great shopping and exquisite dining. This condo is located right off the Little Traverse Wheelway, which is 26 miles of a beautifully paved bike trail that extends from Harbor Springs to Charlevoix. If biking is not your thing, go hiking and/or walk 2 minutes to the Petoskey State Park and enjoy your time at the beach on the shores of Lake Michigan. Different from other condos in the Bathing Beach community, this unit offers a large wraparound deck that is great for grilling out and enjoying a glass of wine. The four large glass sliding doors to this deck offer plenty of natural light into the unit. The living area has cathedral ceilings and an open floor plan, which is perfect for cooking and entertaining. Cozy up to the gas fireplace after fun fall and winter activities to play games, watch TV, or just relax.

Great communication with the host/property manager. Very friendly, helpful, professional. The property was as described, clean, well-supplied. We spent a lot of our time biking, so the location right along the bike path was perfect. Petoskey State Park was just a handful of driveways down. We went there 2 evenings in a row and spent time on the beach enjoying the sunset. Very good experience overall.

Unit was impeccably clean when I arrived. Property is mid-century modern and very cute. Though decor has not been updated, it has been maintained perfectly and was very comfortable. The unit had EVERYTHING needed for a vacation, and was stocked with staples, including coffee, cooking oil, plastic wrap, etc. and every small kitchen appliance imaginable! The only thing I had to buy was toilet paper! The bedrooms had plenty of dresser space. Lighting was plentiful and the wrap around windows brought in so much natural light. Even the bedrooms had windows on three sides! The deck was huge. The only con: the highway noise was somewhat bothersome while on the deck, but no one else in my party seemed to notice it. Location was easy to both Harbor Springs and Petoskey, with nearby groceries, gas, restaurants and pharmacy.

Cute!

A cute little place just barely outside the downtown of Petoskey... Maybe a 10 minute drive in to town? Very easy to communicate with the owner of the property, and no issues. Very accommodating, clean and just overall beautiful

Great location on Northern Michigan!

This is the 1st time we've stayed there and we had a great time. There were 3 of us that went, but this place could hold 4 no problem. It had everything we needed for a week up north. The location was fantastic to be the jumping off point to Petoskey, Charlevoix, Mackinaw, and parts of the UP. Loved the layout and really liked the fireplace for the chilly evenings. Would absolutely stay there again!

Wonderful place to stay!

This is the second time that my family has stayed at this property. We've had a fantastic experience both times. It is a perfect size for a family of four. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Everything was very clean. We appreciated all the little things, like beach chairs, a cooler, bikes, etc. that we didn't want to bring from home. Excellent location, too. We walked every day to the beach.

Great Location!

The condo location is great for visiting several "up north" towns and Petoskey State Park. It was very clean, the kitchen was well-stocked and the bed was comfortable. We had two issues that we resolved on our own. We had a small hiccup with the internet the first evening, as it was unplugged and the grill was out of propane. Additionally, the shower is a bit small.
