This is a clean and comfortable townhouse in a great location. It's just a short drive from downtown Petoskey, and the beach is practically next door. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms are clean and have decent water pressure i the shower, and there is plenty of space for a group of adults. The kitchen is fully stocked, and we appreciated the 12-cup coffee pot so we could make a bunch of coffee at once each morning.

Lovely Townhouse

We had a very comfortable stay at this well appointed townhouse. It is located within easy walking distance of the state park, with great beach access. We also appreciated being an easy drive from both downtown Petoskey and Harbor Springs, and right down the street from a local grocery and excellent bakery. We took advantage of the restaurants and the natural beauty of the area, and even the days we had to work were nice in this unit. Highly recommend!

Great location for ski weekends!

We have stayed in three different town homes in Bathing Beach, and always find the property so very convenient for ski weekends to Boyne Highlands. This unit was very nice, and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. We would stay again for our future trips to Petosky/Harbor Springs!

Wonderful condo, next to the beach!!

Our family had a lovely visit here recently. We stayed 3 nights and it was so great to have space for all. The kitchen is FULLY equipped with everything. The location next to the state park was amazing and even the water temp was pleasantly warm! We would highly recommend this to anyone and hope to return to Petoskey again! Bob and Deanna and very kind hosts!

Great location and cozy place to stay

Check in instructions were super easy to follow and our arrival was super easy. Cute condo in a convenient location. Couple of handyman type things need to be done (really slow drains, loose faucet handles, etc) but nothing that reduced the quality of our stay. Cozy place that is comfortable to hang out in the evening on a cold evening. We loved that we were so close to the beach and Crooked Tree Breadworks! We’d stay here again without hesitation.

Clean, tidy, and great location

This condo unit was very clean, tidy, well-kept, and nicely decorated. There is plenty of room and the unit is fully equipped. It is conveniently located between Petoskey and Harbor Springs. It’s also located right next to the state park, which has an amazing beach. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and one of the bedrooms has two twin beds, ideal for kids/siblings who don’t want to share a bed. The only downside is that there is no air conditioning, and we visited during an extremely warm and humid weekend making it difficult to sleep at night. There are several fans available. Being located near a couple of great ski hills, it seems like it would be a great place to stay for a ski weekend in the winter. Overall, the condo is lovely and I would certainly recommend it especially during the cooler months.

TV Situation

It would have been nice to know that cable was local channels only. Perhaps you should cross out the channels that are not available on the list of possible channels. We were disappointed we could not watch Thursday night football. Putting a small TV in each bedroom and increasing #of channels we could watch would increase the chances we would rent this place again. Q

Disliked: Communication
The place was clean and neat. Nice having a bathroom with each bedroom. I would have liked to have one bedroom on the first floor because one of my friends has difficulty with stairs. It was located within a reasonable distance from downtown and better yet located almost across the road from a mini store although a little pricey what we got was great. The condo doesn’t have AC. fans are provided and the time of the year that we went it was fine. The VRBO app had a spot stating Check In that was in blue but when you clicked on it just informational without specific details to enter the property the day of. Messaged the Host without a response. After going back to the app a number of times realized that you had to scroll further down where there is another spot indicating Check In that had the instructions. The Host messaged me back the day before we were leaving stating that VRBO was managing this information. I don’t believe the Host realized the customer view through the app and the information not being visible in the first logical spot. We have had a different experience each time that we have booked through VRBO and I will say that the best times that we have had have been having communication with the Host. I had never been to Petosky so having someone familiar with the area giving suggestions would have been helpful. Overall we had a good experience.

We enjoyed the location so close to the State park. I think directions should point out the driveway is shared with Chester's Condos. We had some difficulty finding the place the first time.

Friends wedding at Bay Harbor Marina

We were in town to attend a wedding at the Bay Harbor Marina. The location of the property was great. Close to downtown Petosky, the marina, parks, distillery, and walking/biking trails. The unit is a townhouse with plenty of room. It is clean and well appointed. The best part is each room has it own bathroom and there is a darling little porch out back to relax on. We would definitely stay again.
