Cozy, Clean, In-Town, Cottage - Walk to town. Dogs Welcome!

Cozy and clean 2 bedroom cottage on Lake Street a few blocks from downtown Harbor Springs. Bathroom was fully renovated in spring 2023. It's a short walk to, downtown restaurants and shopping, and a quick drive to golf courses, Pond Hill Farm, the Tunnel of Trees, and ski areas. Our dog-friendly cottage has a well-equipped kitchen, dining area, 2 TVs, high-speed wifi, 2 queen beds with new mattresses, parking, and a large back yard with seating and a fire pit. The house is professionally cleaned between guests and includes fresh sheets, bath towels, and beach towels for your stay.

During the summer there is a window AC unit that keeps the whole house cool and comfortable. Our dog-friendly and kid-friendly house has all the amenities of home in a great location convenient to all that Northern Michigan has to offer.

Relax in the living room on a cozy couch and pair of comfy club chairs. The renovated bathroom has built-in shelving, a new shower and all new fixtures. There is a small breezeway next to the kitchen and adjacent laundry room with shelves/hooks for your winter or lake gear! Other things you'll find to make your stay easy and enjoyable: playing cards, puzzles, extra blankets and pillows, wine/bottle openers, paper towel, toilet paper, dish and hand soap, and hangers.

The house is situated on a large lot with a big and mostly private yard that backs up to trees on two sides. You'll be just a few blocks from amazing views of Little Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan!

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

The property was super clean. The host left a welcome basket (so thoughtful!) and coffee / tea for the morning. We especially enjoyed the convenience of the easy walk to downtown.

Pet friendly, great neighborhood to walk Riley. Location is great to Harbor Springs. The cottage was clean and the beds were super comfy! Nice TVs and easy to use remotes. That's a plus! We are not large people but we will say that the bathroom is extremely small and the shower is super small. Lake Street is somewhat of a busy street with lots of dump trucks going up and down. We visited local wineries, shopped, ate/drank and hiked in the area. Lots of great restuarants Riley loves the doggie beach at Harbor Springs!

Up North weekend

We enjoyed a lovely and quiet get away weekend at the Little Blue Cottage. It is conveniently located to everything in Harbor Springs, also Petoskey and Wilderness State Park where we spent time. The cottage is clean, very quiet and supplies were plentiful and clearly labeled. Mama Bear and Papa Bear would each have had their choice between the two queen beds, but alas Goldilocks would not have found her perfect mid firmness mattress. We opted for the firmer choice of the two and slept well. As mentioned by another guest, the shower was a bit small for a man, but the towels were plush and the hot water was fast and plentiful. We appreciated both Keurig and instant coffee were available as well as tea. Having ice cubes ready to go in the freezer was also very convenient.We loved that we could bring our furry friend, our 14 y.o. GSD. The yard was nice for exercising her and everything on one level for our senior pup was great. The hardwood floors in the living room were actually very slippery for her and when she lost her footing she could not get up. Fortunately we travel with rugs in the car that we brought in for her to keep her footing. Just something to keep in mind if your canine friend is in their later years.
