Family Vacation

Cozy home just a short walk from the Good Hart General Store, clothing boutique, and a decor/tea and coffee shop. Beautiful drive along the tunnel of trees leaving Harbor Springs to the home. Two different beach accesses approx one mile from the home. Good location to visit Harbor Springs, Petoskey, and Charlevoix. Would recommend doing a Charlevoix sunset cruise with Sunset Charters! We also went on a morning tour on the Original Soo Locks Tour in Sault Ste Marie (very interesting), and spent the afternoon on Mackinaw Island.

Most everything went smooth with exception of the roaches that were in the master bedroom bed, the spare bedroom bed where kids slept , crawling all over the dining room table and of course the kitchen. Not a very relaxing few days when bugs are crawling on you in bed. Crazy.

Everything about this stay was perfect. The location was relaxing and beautiful! Annette our host was super friendly and informative about the area and what to see and where to go. If you enjoy a night sky with more stars then you can possibly count this is the place to be! The tunnel of trees is spectacular and the views of along both sides of M119 are awe inspiring. The night photo so facing southwest towards Charleviox lit up. The beach scene is down the street from the house absolutely breathtaking!! Looking forward to going back in the early spring and possibly during the winter. So much beauty!

Comfortable and Relaxing

Annette was a great host. We arrived much later than planned and she made sure lights were on so we could get in and settled. The house is lovely. It was perfect for quick local trips as well as a day trip to Mackinac. All the extra touches made it so nice. The beds were very comfortable. The linens were soft. Everyone enjoyed discovering all the little knick knacks around the house. We were sad to leave and would definitely stay here again.

As more questions

First time renter from VRBO .Appreciated the outdoor porch at the back of the house and the home spaciousness for our group of five ; location to lake front. Surprised at some of details ie no option to open windows, bedrooms Doors that did not latch, Grill with only one burner working,. Christmas deco out in July, house directly on corner of main highway and internet wires ran under area rugs. Would ask more questions before I booked another VRBO.

No privacy

If you were concerned about privacy in a neighborhood you have never been too, I would rethink this place to spend your time. There are no blinds in the kitchen window which faces directly to the the hosts house where anyone can see everything you are doing in the house at most angles (kitchen, dining room, living room) especially at night . All the blinds that do exist have missing pannels so therefore you could see through to the entire living areas. The only place in the house that I felt comfortable (with proper privacy) are in the bedrooms. The host lives directly across the street and her friends live behind (where you could also see through the sheer curtain display for the sliding glass door that leads to the patio). I felt very uncomfortable at this house at night time. I’m a female and was alone for this trip so not having privacy at night really made me feel unsafe. I felt like I was being watched the entire evening. I was very uncomfortable here. I also had an encounter with the host that was very awkward- I asked for some assistance about a beeping sound coming from the electric fireplace and she showed up at my door without any warning or heads. I would’ve been fine with a detailed text or phone call. Instead, I was forced to have a conversation with a stranger in my nightgown at 10:30pm. Worst experience ever.

We were pleasantly surprised to find this gem. Bikes are provided by the owner for a ride down the road to the beach. It is on the main road however, so we had some noise that we didn’t expect. If you want groceries, get them before coming to Good Hart.

THE BEST STAY EVER. ❤️ Genuinely.

There aren't words, or enough time, to discuss how awesome these days were for my family. Couldn't ask for a better family vacation, honestly. The place is centrally located to tons of trails and public protected lands and beaches. The water is just... Otherworldly. And the rock indentification?? INCREADIBLE. We're a family of geology nerds, so this place was a whole dream come true. We built a puzzle, made awesome grilled meals, and had campfires. The little general store next door-ish is adorable! Amazing books, and people. FANTASTIC pot pies you can take and bake. So so so good. Annette was attentive, informative, and super kind to us. Her home is beautiful, and has personal Michigan touches all over it. It's kid and dog friendly, and within 1 mile of so many things to do. The beds and towels are great, and you have a fully stocked kitchen at your disposal. As a professional chef, I can honestly say, I didn't need to use a single piece of my own kit, while staying here. With a really great washer and dryer combo, just off the kitchen? Couldn't be better set up for enjoying the nearby beaches you'll have access to. We would 10/10 stay again if we're welcome. And we'll remember the time we spent there as a family, for the rest of our lives.

Done quickly and easily online, the property was everything is listed and then some. The property owner/manager Annette could not have been more nice and accommodating. The property itself was incredible extremely nicely laid out with all kinds of extras and things that they had in the house to use I haven’t found in very many locations. Anybody even thinking about coming this direction, should considered signing up for this property,
