Myself, my sister and our husbands stayed here for 4 days in mid October. My sister and her husband live in lower Michigan but have spent a lot of time in that area. The house is in a quiet neighborhood above downtown. Had the weather been nicer it would not have been a problem to walk to town. We spent our days out of the house exploring the area-so many wineries ! We made day trips easily to Charlevoix, the tunnel of trees, Petoskey, the sky bridge and up to Sault Ste Marie. We spent the evenings watching movies in the nicely finished basement (loved the surround sound) as it was too cold and rainy to sit outside and have a fire (would have had to find wood to buy however). My sister and I both agreed that the beds were comfy. There is plenty of room for 2-3 families if you don’t mind sharing a bathroom. There are 2 full bathrooms, one with a shower downstairs and one with a tub/shower combo upstairs. This is an older cottage but it was METICULOUSLY clean. Plenty of books, games and room to spread out if you do get stuck inside. Would return to both this house and Harbor Springs

Second year in a row and we were just as pleased as last year. The door code was not set to the code I had received and it was a bit of a hassle because there was no one to call and I didn’t have my password with me Finally had to login to VRBO account to find a message from the host. Once in , everything was perfect

Beautiful clean home. Everything we needed for a weekend stay. Charming home.

Great communication, location and amenities!

Spent a long weekend with my family and had a great time. The house was very nice, clean and functional for our needs. The owner was very helpful also. With a 5-minute walk to downtown Harbor Springs, what more can you ask for?

The house was very comfortable and cozy, with many amenities. Giselle was very communicative with any questions in advance. It was pleasant in every way.

My four sisters and I had a very pleasant stay at this property. The kitchen was well equipped (although the coffee pot was exceedingly slow) and we enjoyed the nice outdoor spaces. Our one “complaint” was the patio and grill area needed to be cleaned up before we could use it, and the front porch area needed sweeping to rid the area of multiple cobwebs. Would we return? Definitely yes.

This was a perfect place for a multigenerational family vacation. The cottage was clean, well-appointed, and immediately comfortable. Three distinct spaces for sleeping: upstairs bedrooms, downstairs bedroom, basement bedroom (really nice!). Gave all family members privacy and quiet when needed. The kitchen is very clean and well-appointed. We had a great experience.

The hosts are super. They communicate quickly and are very enjoyable to chat. The Birch Cottage description is accurate. We have rented the Birch Cottage for the last three years, enjoying our stay each time.

Secret basement was amazing. Beautiful property. Perfect location to downtown harbor springs.

Clean, cute and exactly what you need. Hosts were great and very responsive! Thank you for opening your doors to us!

This was a great way to stay in Harbor Springs. Everything you need under one roof, and very walkable to downtown. Would recommend, would stay again!

Birch Cottage is a luxurious house. It is completely spotless and very inviting and well decorated. There is always a comfy spot to sit and relax. The full basement family room was great for us and our 7 year old twins. The upstairs was perfect for my 77yr old mother and 18 year old daughter to get some peaceful sleep. The roomy kitchen was stocked with every possible utensil and type of coffee maker, including a Nespresso machine. We will definitely be back!!!

We loved staying at this house! It was well-appointed and felt so homey and comfortable. There are so many touches that really made the stay special - books and games and even a welcome basket! The house was clean and well-kept and the location could not be beat. Our family would definitely rent this house again if we return to the area. Thanks again! :)

This is an incredibly well maintained home which served us perfectly! Great location, cozy beds and a warm respite on a weekend full of winter activities. We would love to return sometime soon!
