Custom Harbor Springs In-Town Luxury Cottage

Beautiful home walking distance from downtown Harbor. The host was an excellent communicator and generous with help and suggestions. We will be back!

Fabulous house and the host was beyond thoughtful and accommodating!! Can’t wait to go back again.

House was wonderful. Had all the things for an easy ski weekend.

Wonderful stay! Beautiful home, excellent location. Well appointed.

This was our third stay at the cottage...we feel very at home and look forward to visiting again! The cottage is exactly as pictured; very charming, clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything you need. We love that the cottage is walking distance to town; great area for lots of dog walks. Great communication with Vance. The welcome banana bread and wine are such a treat!

This home is absolutely beautiful — thoughtfully crafted with attention to detail in every corner. The décor features bright pops of color and an inviting mix of textures, complemented by interesting coffee table books that make the space feel both stylish and personal. Every fixture and finish is lovely, from the elegant tilework to the lighting and cabinetry.What I especially appreciated is that it’s not just form over function — the house truly has everything I needed. There’s ample closet space, a washer and dryer, and the bathrooms are both elegant and practical. It’s clear that comfort was just as much a priority as design.The location couldn’t be better — just a two-block walk to great shopping and restaurants. The host was easy to reach and made check-in and check-out effortless. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, well-appointed home in a perfect location.

The home was spotless and beautiful, inside and out! The location is a perfect distance from the town and beach. We walked everywhere. The huge yard was private and peaceful. The landscape and flowers were absolutely gorgeous. We had beautiful weather so we were able to enjoy the cozy porch and grill. Everything was perfect!! Vance was so kind and made check-in a breeze. My family and I are hoping to return next fall.

Vance was excellent to work with and his property exceeded our expectations!

We loved our week-long stay here! The house had everything we needed, and then-some. The property is beautiful. Loved all the flower boxes! The front porch was a popular spot for naps on the swing, coffee in the morning, a glass of wine in the evening, and everything in-between. The location cannot be beat. Less than a 5-minute walk to town. Plenty of space for our family. Vance was a wonderful host. We loved the welcome goodies he left for our arrival. Very welcoming. We'll be back!

This was our second year in a row staying at the cottage. I’d like to say how terrible it was so that it would always be available, but once again it was wonderful, for my partner, her dog and me. The house is well designed, built, maintained, furnished and stocked. You should want for nothing. It’s also well located, walking distance to downtown and within a 20-30 minute drive to all other sites and activities. We would highly recommend it (except for August, as that’s when we like to go!)

From our first communication with Lance when we inquired about the property til our Monday morning farewells, the “cottage” (nope, it’s a 4 bed/2 1/2 bath house!) was a perfect home base to have friends experience the beauty and inspiration of northern Michigan for the first time. While my wife and I have been coming up for golf and walks and color and everything for 40 years, friends from the northeast had not ventured up. They fell in love and we’re already working on our calendars for our 2026 visit! Two thumbs WAY up!! Thank you, Lance!

Home was very nice and comfortable. The description on Vrbo was very accurate and the home was well appointed with everything a family needed. Enjoyed the stay and would recommend this home to anyone.Gary R.

Great and big house in walking distance to downtown. Everything was perfect, we will come again.

Made a last minute plan to rent this home in the heart of Harbor Springs - location, home, amenities were all as advertised - home was well stocked with all the needs expected and then some. Even better was the communication from Vance who was highly responsive and accommodating of our needs.

Awesome home, tons of room and very comfortable. Easy access to downtown Harbor Springs, ski hills, Petoskey, and more. Great host, easy to communicate with and super helpful.

The house was nicely put together and stocked with all the essentials. Nice location near downtown Harbors springs and close to skiing

Great rental!

Wonderful place in Harbor Springs!! Has everything you could need and more!! Easy check in and great communications! Perfect place for our family and in-laws and our dog too! Hope to be back!

This is a great home away from home. Perfect location. Great communication with homeowners.

The home is beautiful. The location is fantastic. The communication with the host was exceptional. Six stars!
