    Our family gathered at the Potato House for the holidays, and it was magical. It is such a special place. The layout of the home is so comfortable and was absolutely perfect for our family time together. The furnishings are exceptional and unique, which gave the whole place so much charm. The kitchen had everything we needed, and it was such a treat to entertain our family there. The bedrooms were cozy and comfortable—everything was just perfect. One of the highlights was the horses around the property, and nearby downtown Harbor Springs feels truly magical during the holiday season. A huge thank you to Chris for making the home feel so special when we arrived, including the beautiful Christmas tree. His kindness and quick responses made us feel very welcome, and we appreciated that so much. Thank you, Potato House—we made wonderful family memories with you, and we hope to see you again.

    We had pretty high expectations for this rental — which were not only met but were exceeded. This is an incredible property and grounds which clearly maintained with great care. We enjoyed every little detail including the meticulously curated furnishings and decor, the fabulous layout of the house, the history of the home, the tunnel of trees location and proximity to downtown Harbor Springs, the beautiful horses always in view, and so much more. We would not hesitate to stay at this special home again should we have the opportunity.

    Absolutely fantastic from our first step through the front door to the sad goodbye when we locked up and left this unique gem. The “Potato House” will not disappoint. Peace, comfort with elevated rustic charm just minutes from Harbor Springs. Chris is GREAT. Communication was smooth and prompt from the moment of booking. I would highly recommend for anyone seeking a clean, comfortable, well located VRBO experience. A future visit is anticipated!

    Everything about the stay was exactly as stated and pictured. The only thing that could have been better was the weather and if you live in Michigan which we do you can't be surprised byn that! We would definitey stay there again.

    The Potato House is extremely comfortable and it’s furnished beautifully. You can’t beat the location! The wood burning fireplace is the icing on the cake.

    The Potato House fit our needs perfectly. If you are on the fence about booking this beautiful, historic home you should go ahead and book it, do not hesitate. The setting is idyllic, with beautiful horses in fenced pens surrounding you. It is a grand house, with superlative outdoor spaces. We enjoyed making smores using the fire pit. We hosted the rest of the family for pizza night. A big hit was the actual Potato storage dining area. We played lots of games around the ample dining room table. The newly renovated kitchen and baths are beautiful. Our bedrooms were grand-the grandkids loved the papa-bear beds. The living room has the largest TV I've ever seen, and Shrek was a hit one evening.Chris was an awesome liaison to our questions. Our host, Karen, was super accommodating. I would love to think Potato House can be in our future. Thank you!!

    The Potato House is charming and cozy, with luxury details. It is also the cleanest rental I have had the pleasure of staying in. The kitchen and bathrooms are newly renovated with high-end finishes and appliances, and all bedding is immaculately clean and comfortable. The hosts were attentive to any questions and needs. The grounds are very well-kept, and the views of the horses in the pastures are picturesque. It is a very peaceful location, and the drive to downtown is only 5-7 minutes. Thornhill Nature Preserve is just down the road, which is a wonderful short hike to the beach. Pond Hill Farm is another very close spot that is a must-visit for lunch or dinner. We will definitely stay again.
