The house was perfect for us. It is well-equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. The room at the bottom of the stairs was perfect for changing in and out of snowsport boots and apparel without tracking anything into the house. We would stay here again!

Great Ski Retreat in the Up North

We have been visiting the Petoskey and Harbor Springs area for about 20 years for the best Midwest Skiing at nearby Nubs Nob and Boyne Highlands. This was our first stay at this location, but we will definitely come back. This house has a great location and includes so much care and detail that it should be the top of everyone's list. It comfortably fit two families with kids and was warm and cozy after some cold days skiing.

Hi and Thanks for your interest in the BlueDoor Chalet! It will soon become the BlueChair Chalet when we get it installed! We became owners of this home in November 2021 and will be using it throughout the season, renting it to you when we aren't here! We hope you will love this property like we do - 2 acres to hike up, bright windows in the living room. Rooms spread out over 3 levels.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Hidden Hamlet and love walking the neighborhood at night taking in the charm of the chalets. (yaktrax recommended!)

What makes this property unique

We have stairs! 3 flights to be exact - lots of room to spread out.

We hope you'll enjoy our home and treat it like your own - we put the best in here so you can enjoy it, too!
