About this property

Ski Hills! Nubs Nob! Cute and cozy A-frame. A hidden gem! Great rates.

*We keep an allergen free house for our cleaning crew and future renters. Therefore, we have a no pet policy.

Plan well in advance for our peak Summer and Winter seasons. We book up quickly. Can't beat our location if you're skiing at Nubs Nob. You can walk from our front door to the ski hill within minutes!

Summer: Great getaway spot. Local hiking/biking trails. Beaches within minutes drive. Great Harbor Springs and Petoskey local shopping! Quiet wooded neighborhood. Perfect to have morning coffee on the front deck and listen to the birds chirping.

Winter: Ski Hill Location! Walk to the Nubs Nob Ski Hill (3 minute walk). Close to Boyne Highlands too (3 minute drive).

Please check our updated calendar for availability and rates.

Great Value......can't beat our location. Harbor Springs 7 miles away. Petoskey 10 miles away. Both Skybridge of Michigan at Boyne and Mackinac Island ferry within a 40 minute drive :)

Chalet has 3 beds:
2 bedrooms (1 Queen bed in each) and a loft that looks over the main floor living area (1 Queen).

Central air conditioning, fully stocked kitchen, roomy outdoor deck. All linens and towels provided.

Perfect weekend or weekly getaway location. Close to both Harbor Springs and Petoskey (known for great downtown shopping). Several local beaches (summer) within minutes drive. Bring books/magazines to read. Move in and feel at home for your stay. Super for a romantic getaway or a family ski/summer vacation. Pelston Regional Airport is approximately 20 minute drive/Traverse City Airport about 90 minute drive.

Everything was so clean, not even cobwebs or old spiderwebs were outside. The kitchen was well equipped and all the dishes were clean. Waking up in the morning was amazing. I was able to go outside on the balcony from the room and breathe in the crisp morning air. 10/10 would recommend! It's so stinking cute amd peaceful there. Grill works great too!

Comfortable beds, easy to communicate with the owner. Really convenient to walk to Nubs -about a 2 minute walk to the parking lot.Property is dated, a little musty smell to the cabin. Kitchen could be stocked a bit better- lots of plates and such but could use more cooking things for cooking in the oven.Stairs are a little steep if you have mobility issues.Fire place does not give off any heat, it is just for looks.If you dont mind an older, dated look it was a great place to stay for the location.Ideal for 3 couples.

Thanks for your review. Glad you enjoyed the comfy beds and great location 😊. It’s a stick built A-frame cabin in the woods. If you want to return, let us know. We will tear it down and build you a brand new city condo that has 2 dozen different sized casserole dishes to bake with. Travel safely to your next destination 😉

About the host

Hosted by Gary Pateman

Host profile image
Local Petoskey residents :) We love where we live:
- the lakes and rivers
- wooded walking trails and waterfront bicycle path
- great local dining, bars, breweries, wineries
- our 3 ski hills (Boyne Highlands, Boyne Mountain, Nubs Nob)
- the million dollar sunsets
- Mackinac Island and the new Skybridge

Why they chose this property

We bought our Chalet in 2003. Lived in it for 3 years - perfect for our pre-child snowboarding lives. And the A-frame style is super cozy - different from your everyday 'cookie-cutter' homes. When we bought a home in Petoskey (needed more room for kids), we had to find a way to keep the Chalet. It's too perfect to let go! So it's now available for others to enjoy as a rental property. We miss living in the Chalet - brings back great memories of the quaint neighborhood everytime we are there getting it ready for our next guests.

What makes this property unique

Cute and cozy Ski Chalet. Great location. That explains it in a nutshell!
