Wow! The Palmer house exceeded our expectations and was the perfect beach spot for our family getaway. The house is beautiful and well stocked with everything that you could possibly need. Our host Tim communicated with us to ensure everything was just right. The beach and playground were so close - just steps away and we enjoyed walking to the nearby shops and restaurants downtown. We enjoyed the big front porch seating and used the grill and fire pit. Everything was very clean and updated. I highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed!

Everything was perfect. The home was clean and beautiful. The beach is a one minute walk. Tim answered any questions almost immediately. Would definitely recommend this stay!

It’s a lovely house , decor is fit for a lake house. Walkable location to beach mushroom houses and downtown. Solid core doors help deaden sound and the floor did not squeak. The stairs are steep but had non slip thread.All bedroom are upstairs plus 2 bathrooms that were reachable from hallway.1 bathroom with shower is down stairs. Front porch has ample comfortable sitting with views of the channel and lake however the view is preceded by small lit parking lot.Only thing would be nice to have some games for all age kids and adults for rainy days.We would definitely stay there again. Well appointed lake house.

The cabin was lovely. We had the unfortunate timing of midge fly season by the water. They were not too bad by the cabin. We still had a great stay. The cabin is a great location to visit Harbor Springs and Cross Village.
