About this house rental

Perfectly placed on an oversized in town Petoskey lot with plenty of privacy, the Cedar House is a great getaway for backyard BBQs, bonfires, and enjoying vacation like a local! If biking is your thing, then once you arrive you can ditch your vehicle and jump on the Little Traverse Wheelway (bike path) that extends from Charlevoix all around Little Traverse Bay over to Harbor Springs (bikes & helmets provided with a signed waiver). The Petoskey State Park (beach access) is also just minutes down the bike path or it's a one block walk to catch the beautiful Lake Michigan sunsets. Head the opposite direction on the bike path and pop into downtown Petoskey for lunch and shopping. Want to walk to grab a cold beer? A local favorite, Ron's Bar & Backyard, is right next door and complete with a jukebox and shuffleboard table. This location doesnt get any better! This adorable 4 bedroom, 2 bath cottage is freshly updated and ready to provide a relaxing vacation with its clean presentation and simple decor. Enter through the front door into a cozy living area which is great for watching TV, playing games, or enjoying drinks. The large dining room table is also a great place to gather around for meals or puzzles. Do not miss the cute coffee nook to grab your morning cup of energy. The kitchen appliances are all brand new as well! The main level also offers two cute bedrooms and one fully updated bathroom. Upon taking the steps upstairs onto the beautifully refurbished wood floors, you will find two more bedrooms and another updated bathroom. The spacious primary-like bedroom offers a king bed, modern bedside lighting and small desk area. Walk down the hall to the second bedroom with bunk beds - great for kids, but could also be suitable for adults as the bunks are full-size beds. The bathroom, which sits between the two bedrooms, is designed with clean, white tile and modern brass fixtures. This charming cottage is in the middle of the action, yet with an abundance of privacy!

Everything about this stay was great. I’ve never taken the time to leave a review, but this place definitely deserves one. The property management couldn’t have been better! They were so courteous and checked in prior to our stay- they even sent a link to the weather forecast for our upcoming trip! We only encountered one very minimal issue with the keypad upon entry, and they showed up immediately to help. Unbeknownst to me, my brother in law reached out as he thought the batteries to a tv remote were low, they showed up on a weekend with new batteries! They truly went above and beyond. The property itself was adorable, decorated perfectly, and truly felt like home. We can’t wait to visit again! As a family who used to have a vacation home in Harbor Springs, we were very particular about our rental. We are very grateful for a wonderful stay, thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at this cozy home, situated between two areas we enjoy skiing. It was the perfect place to crash for the evening after a long days on the hills, enjoy some great food and play some games. The hot water was wonderful and endless, towels were thick and absorbent, traditional and cup coffee makers were provided, basic seasonings and coffee filters as well, and the beds and bedrooms were all wonderfully comfortable. If this owner has the chance to include a ladle and a larger soup-style pot those would be our only tiny recommendations.

We had a very nice stay at the property. It’s located a short drive from downtown and 15 minute drive from two nice ski resorts. It’s close to a grocery store, which is an added bonus when you’re feeding 5 teenagers. Enough bed/bedrooms for our entire party to sleep comfortably. Kitchen is equipped with essentials and suitable for making meals.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 5 women from our family staying at Cedar House as a launch point for exploring the area. It was clean, comfortable, and had plenty of room with its 4 bedrooms. We enjoyed lounging in the living room. Everything we needed was right where we expected it. The property is a couple miles outside of downtown and close proximity to the bay (we thought it would have a direct view of the lake and be closer into town, but that’s probably our fault for not reading carefully). Also I’m sure that’s why the house felt so reasonably priced. Although the house is directly adjacent to a bar, we felt safe. The bike supply is AWESOME. The bikes seem brand new and there are plenty of them in a variety of sizes. Vacation Properties of Northern Michigan was proactive and responsive in their communication. They helped us get the battery changed in the door lock very quickly when it died and let us know when the property was ready early on the day of our arrival. Very professional and kind.Northern Michigan is a delight - we are all from other parts of the country so we loved the fall colors, countryside and coastline. An easy, beautiful drive got us to Mackinaw City where we were able to take the ferry to Mackinac Isla nd for a day trip. We returned along the Tunnel of Trees. We also explored downtown Petoskey - our favorite shop we the American Spoon, and it was fun to see the Kilwins factory store. In Charlevoix we saw the mushroom houses designed by Earl Young. Our group’s favorite outing was the Lavender Hill Farm. The staff are so knowledgeable, the property was gorgeous even off season and the products were lovely.
