We had a wonderful stay at Bluff Bliss! The house is a quick walk to town and the Harbor Springs Market which makes it the perfect location. Was so nice to have the second bathroom upstairs for our group. The hosts were easy to work with and very communicative when we needed them, would recommend staying here!

The house was perfect for my husband and myself. However, it would also be great for a family. Jen (host) is great with communication and we really enjoyed our stay. The house was stocked nicely with dishes, towels, blankets etc. The location of the house was also perfect, especially to travel to the nearby towns. We would highly recommend Jen and Tony and their house to anyone!!

We loved our stay at Bluff Bliss. Tony and Jen are terrific hosts and made us feel comfortable from the start. The house has been updated thoughtfully to accommodate modern guests without sacrificing its traditional charm. It’s ideal for a small family. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances worked well. The location on a bluff above downtown Harbor Springs is convenient to town. Two thumps up for this property.

Loved this place. Extremely convenient to all the things we needed and want to enjoy in MI. Quiet, peaceful and Jen made sure we had everything we needed and was just a call away. The only comment I would have is to maybe have a larger TV- but there were so many things we took advantage of in his quaint town we watched very little. Stay at Jennifer’s place! You wil be glad you did!

Wow—what an amazing spot! The home is nestled among beautiful properties at a higher elevation, overlooking lush woods and the bay. We visited during a very snowy week in late December and loved being less than 10 minutes from the ski slopes and just minutes from the charming downtown restaurants of Harbor Springs.The house was the perfect winter retreat. We enjoyed coffee in the front room while taking in the view and even spotted some deer. Everything was extremely tidy and well organized. The primary king bed was very comfortable, and the newly remodeled primary bath was lovely. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment and supplies.The back game room was a great bonus and gave our 13-year-old her own space—we brought a blow-up bed and she was a happy camper. Jennifer and Tony were friendly, helpful, and kind hosts. We would love to return to experience the area in the summer or fall!

Just returned from a wonderful stay at "Bluff Bliss". Location was great. Very peaceful, but close enough to town to walk if you wanted to. The house was clean and had everything we needed.

This is such a quaint older home and the hosts did so many little things to make it as comfortable as possible. ex: shampoo, conditioners, soap and lotions in the bathroom, night light in the hall, a treat to welcome us when we arrived, etc. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware. Perfect location to stroll into town. We recommend and would return in the future.

A charming home in town with the peace of being away from it all. This property has the character true to the history of an old home, but had been nicely renovated. At the time we stayed, the home was a one bed, one bath, though the upstairs is being renovated. Home was clean. We spent our morning sipping coffees in two comfy chairs on the front porch enjoying the look over the bluff and the cyclists riding past beginning tours of the Tunnel of Trees. A king bed and a great walk in shower with plenty of water pressure were perfect for rest and relaxation. Close to the downtown, blocks from the grocery store, you can enjoy a jumping off point for touring the area or just stay in and take in the birding and fresh air.Jen was a wonderful host, very responsive, and made sure we had a great stay.

The home is a quintessential up north summer home and perfect for any stay: close to walk down town, relaxing and surrounded by historical homes and great views. They’ve done a great job keeping is cottagey and updating it with the bathroom and a comfy bed. We look forward to a return when the upstairs is done to bring back kids - or return on our own as two adults. Lovely appointed home with a small porch to boot and of course, red geraniums. :) thank you for sharing your house with us!
