Affordable Lake Superior views! Pictured Rocks!

YingRating, 5 stars6 months ago

Magnificent lake view and the perfect deck to enjoy the view! You can actually see the sunrise in the morning. Ample space with all the necessities. Like some of the reviews, the house is a bit old but it does not affect the quality of your stay. The only thing kind of bothers me (tiny bit) is the kitchen light. It’s relatively dark so not very convenient to cook when it’s dark outside. Otherwise, this place is a gem!

We loves our stay! The home is SO cute. And every detail was considered to make the home dog friendly. I love the proactive communication from Jacky to make sure we were taken care of at every turn. This home is the perfect quaint cottage... and feela JUST at home! We loved EVERY minute of our stay. The lake views were also incredible!

MaraRating, 5 stars5 months ago

This was a sisters getaway..Pam’s beach cottage was such a pleasure!! Very clean and organized..decorated so nice .. Everywhere we wanted to visit was within a few minutes to a couple hours ..very easy driving!! I would recommend Pam’s cottage ..it is a different kind of layout and the bed in the loft you do have to climb a ladder..but we managed all and so glad we did !! Very nice area..I think you will enjoy as we did ..Pam is a really a wonderful host and if anything is needed she always answered!! Highly recommend..thanks again!!!

Downtown Cottage

KayRating, 5 stars6 months ago

October 19-22, 2024. We loved staying at your beautiful, clean and comfy cottage! It was the perfect landing spot for our amazing Pictured Rocks Cruise, checking in a bit early to get to the cruise on time was perfect! We enjoyed bopping around the waterfalls and 12 mile beach. The leaves were PEAK which made our time even more special. Thank you for the perfect place to stay. Kay & Rich

Welcome to Penny Cottage! Newly renovated in 2024

AliciaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We stayed at Penny Cottage for spring break with my 2 and 4 year old. It was perfect. Lots of toys/games for the kids, which they loved. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is beautiful and has everything we needed for cooking light meals. Although it was cold and snowy while we were there, is it located close to the beach and downtown so in warmer months it would be easily walkable to both!

A Dream Getaway at Britta's Lakefront Cabin! We had the most incredible stay at Britta’s cabin on the lake in the Upper Peninsula! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the serene setting and breathtaking views of the lake. The cabin itself is beautifully designed and spacious made it feel like a home away from home Britta was an exceptional host—she went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Communication was seamless from the start, and she provided us with helpful recommendations. She clearly cares about her guests and has thought of every detail to make the experience unforgettable. If you're looking for a relaxing, picturesque retreat with a perfect balance of nature and comfort, this cabin is the place to be. We’re already planning our next visit and can't wait to return to Britta’s beautiful lakeside escape! Highly recommend!

Charlevoix Escape: Ski, Hike, Beach & Chill

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 32 reviews6 months ago

Me and my siblings stayed her for my sisters wedding. The host was super responsive when we had questions during our stay. The place was clean and a good deal compared to the hotels in the area. I feel like it had good amenities. It is walking distance to the Earl and so close to castle farms. It was very clean and cozy. We loved sitting in the bay windows. It was perfect for our stay and if we’re back in the area again I would stay here again.

Newly-Renovated Dog-Friendly Getaway!

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviews6 months ago

We had a great long-weekend stay with our toddler and small dog. The house is in a cute neighborhood that's walkable to the restaurants/shops in downtown Harbor Springs. The house was equipped with everything we needed and more. The toys in the living room were a nice surprise and helpful to keeping our toddler entertained as we unloaded the car. Very clean and nicely updated/decorated. Enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we came back to Harbor Springs.

We were so pleasantly surprised by the quaint, quiet, beautiful cottage nestled in the woods amongst the surrounding homes. It was so homey, and the 3 season porch was absolutely amazing!

Sandbox on Michibay: Spring Break with a View

4.84 out of 5 average rating, 25 reviews6 months ago

The Sandbox’s shoreline was stunning and the comforts of the beach house itself were perfection! The neighboring towns offered great spots for local shopping and dining, and SOOO many beautiful nature-based things to do await you! If you are at all put off by natural well water with a high iron content, buy some gallons of water to bring with you for drinking water/pets - other than that, absolute perfection (and important to note, totally outside of the control of the owners/management)!

Lakeside Retreat Beach Kayaking Sleeps 14

SaraRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Our family had a wonderful stay. We had everything we needed. The house is spread out so everyone had their own space. My husband and I shared the master, my adult son and family had their own apartment basically ( in the tower), teenage boys had the “bunker”, and although my parents couldn’t make it, they would have had their own wing as well. Beautiful surroundings, private… we couldn’t have asked for more on our long weekend away bonding with family.

We had a great time during our stay. The cabin was perfect for us and was directly across from a gas station and Andy’s Bar which had good food and atmosphere. Cabin was right on the snowmobile trail and had pull through parking which was great for the snowmobile trailer. Definitely would book again!

PhillipRating, 5 stars6 months ago

Great place! So much space and beds! We walked in and felt right at home! Just wish we were able to see the northern lights, but it was overcast out side, I don't think our host could do anything about that. I did try walking out onto the balcony all night to check!
