This was the cutest place ever, and the host was amazing! It had everything we needed, and we were a party of six and we did have room to spread out. The beds were comfortable, and the pullout couch bed was great too. We did not gt to use the outdoor space as it was winter when we went, but it looks like a great place to hang out with a fire pit, grill, and lounging chairs. It was close to restaurants and shopping. We would definitely stay here again!

This was such a gem. Only our second Vrbo but I would come here again. Very quiet, everything we needed and more. Everything was self-explanatory and the coffee was a nice touch. Didn’t have enough time to cook but I would’ve loved to cook on that island. Heat, hot water - very excellent!

We had a delightful stay at Happy Harbor! The house was darling and spotless, kitchen well stocked, bathroom amenities were plentiful, and the beds were so comfortable! The village is very walkable, located near Indian Lake state park with plenty of walking trails and a wonderful dog park. The host was extremely nice and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, in spite of sketchy looking houses nearby. The front door stuck getting in and out, but that didn't change our impression of how nice this house is on the inside! The bath and a half worked very well and all of the amenities were just what we needed. We will stay there again, if needed.
