4 couples in 70's who get together each fall for past 15 years or so and take a trip to upper Michigan. We love the Elk Rapids, Traverse and Petoskey area. Just a note to similar travelers. Because of our ages, trips to bathroom in the night happen. This is an older home with no bathroom on second floor. The stairs squeak so you will hear a fairly steady creak during the night. And being polite we tried to be as quiet as possible which just prolongs the noise. You might want some sort of alternative with you if you fall into this category. (smiley face). Very nice neighborhood and short, easy walk to town. For our group it was nice location.
Loved the place and location. The owners were a pleasure to deal with.
We love staying in this cute town. The cottage is friendly and inviting.
My husband and I had a fantastic week at your beautiful home. Thank you so much for a flawless stay!
This house is the perfect size for us and the perfect location! Three or four families rent houses in ER annually and this is still my favorite. It is spacious, nicely furnished and comfortable. I live the kitchen open to a large table where we all gather for meals, cards or a puzzle. We feel relaxed when we hit the front door!
There were 7 of us that stayed here for a weekend touring the wineries. The town was adorable and close to the peninsula. It was a perfect place to unwind and enjoy our time away.
This house in elk Rapids was lovely. It was clean and pretty and had lots of space. It would be particularly lovely in the summer with the back deck & the front enclosed porch. It would be easier for guests if there was a full stairway banister, since most of the bedrooms are upstairs and both bathrooms are downstairs.
This was a great location. Few blocks from the beach and the adorable downtown. All around wonderful time. Only downside were the beds. Several places to sleep but only one bed big enough for a couple. And, no upstairs bathroom. If you had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night you had to go downstairs. Otherwise it was one of our best family vacations yet. We'd stay again.
I was injured with an accident the morning th before. It wa wonderful to be able to get around the lower level with my wheelchair. It was easy for my family to get me on the deck. Loved the bonfire and closeness to town. Beds were comfortable. Would love to stay again
We were close to family members in town, near the beach and downtown. House was comfortable and sufficiently stocked. It is clean and comfortable. We love the big dining table open to the kitchen. There is room to be together and places to escape for working remotely or for reading quietly. Love the porch, deck, and yard!
