Empire Rose: Cozy Home in the Heart of Empire on Front St.

Perfect location for Salmon fishing and hiking. Easy walk to the beach for sunsets. The house had everything that we needed.

Empire Rose was the perfect lodging because of the lay out of the home and patio deck. Everything for cooking was available in the kitchen; easy chairs in the living room with large picture windows and lighting for reading a good book; a quiet and charming outdoor patio that felt very private. Generally speaking ...the home afforded a creative and pleasant decor, yet humble, throughout. The area amenities are just right to experience some small town experiences ( dining, galleries, ice cream shop, and a chocolate shop). There is the most quaint walk to Lake Michigan Shore for day excursions to enjoy the lakeside. Day trips to local towns, including Glen Arbor, are possible which add adventure and interest. The most communicative and pleasant hosts! Thank you for your lakeshore home and the tranquility of this residence.

Enjoyed our stay at Empire Rose. Very convenient location and easy to walk or ride anywhere! House was very clean, comfortable, and cozy. Would recommend highly!

The property was so much better than the pictures. It is spacious, updated and decorated with beautiful pieces of vintage and current furniture. The Empire Rose is located close to everything, beach, shopping, bike and hiking trails. Other than the weather being finicky it was a wonderful stay.

Very comfortable stay in delightful town on Empire. Within walking distance of everything including beach and restaurant. Very comfortable bed in main bedroom and well stocked kitchen. Especially appreciated the remodeled bathroom with walk-in shower and grab bars. Owners were very responsive to any questions we had.

Everything from checking in to checking out was absolutely perfect. The cottage is even better in person than pictures can show online. Exceptionally clean and the owners have provided anything and everything you could possibly want in a rental. Looking forward to returning every year.

This is a great location to stay in Empire! Cindy made our stay so easy and quick to respond to questions. We cannot wait to visit again!

Not fancy, but quaint and nice. Location was perfect and the host was very helpful and accessible! We would definitely stay again!

What a wonderful home on Front Street. Our family of 5 came to Empire together for a family wedding. We are so grateful we found Empire Rose. The home had everything we needed, a clean and generous amount of space, yard and more. Prime location to everything, very responsive and kind owners. The beach is a short walk, our kiddos loved riding their scooters to the beach. We really appreciated our time here and thank you for having us. Looking forward to next year. THANK YOU!

My family stayed @ the ER the last few days of July and the first few days of August. We really liked it. Great location in a small beach town. The property was clean, neat and well kept. When I showed my girls pictures of the home they were not impressed but they liked it as soon as we walked through the door. The owners (very nice people) live next door so if you have any issues they'll be addressed. The location is perfect-maybe 5 minutes to the beach, 10 seconds for ice cream, 30 seconds to the grocer and 60 seconds to Joe's Friendly Tavern. Glen Arbor (north on M22) has more to offer as far as shopping and dining. We hope to be back to Empire in the next year or two and will definitely stay @ the Empire Rose when we do.
