First of all, my communication with the owner was exceptional. I was very impressed with all the information I was given and very prompt answers to any inquiries I sent to her. This Victorian cottage is located in a very unique and beautiful area in northern Michigan. It was extremely clean, cozy, and decorated in such a way that make guests feel welcome and comfortable in a “home away from home”. We certainly appreciated all the amenities, attention to detail, very well equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who might be looking for a special experience and place to stay in the area.

Petoskey area is beautiful. This home is in historic Bay View community, making the stay even more special. The home, built in the late 1800s, is large, well outfitted and very comfortable. A good location and we recommend staying here.

Our daughter was married at the Perry hotel and we stayed with my extended family at this wonderful house in Bay View. It was the perfect in every way. Lots of space for family gatherings with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. There were also plenty of beds, and bathrooms, all with very thoughtful details to accommodate a variety of needs. The kitchen was an especially well planned space that we all enjoyed. The location was also wonderful, as it was close to the venue so it made it easy to travel back and forth, but also near the bike trails, restaurants, beach, and wineries. The house was exactly as shown in the listing and Charlene was happy to answer any questions that I had. I would definitely recommend this wonderful home and feel so blessed that she shared her lovely place with my family during this special time.
