8 Bedroom House in Idylwilde, Harbor Springs

A family dream home with water views and a very short walk to a glorious private beach within the association. In essence, this is two homes within one; an newer primary home and a connected second home that is affectionately known as “The Cottage”. The home includes 2 full and well-appointed kitchens, 8 bedrooms (9 beds), a beautiful master bedroom with new ensuite bathroom with a large soaker tub. This home is a perfect getaway for a large group or two families. Enjoy all the perks including a beautiful stone fireplace, a wood burning stove, a large outdoor back porch and yard with natural gas grill, an in ground fire pit, beautiful water views, and the quiet feeling of being in the woods. Continuing on from the backyard is a set of wooden stairs that lead down to a short pathway that takes you to the beach and the clear stunning waters of Lake Michigan! This beach is only shared with the association and is very private. This fabulous property is less than a five-minute drive to downtown Harbor Springs, a five-minute drive (in the other direction) to Pond Hill Farm, and very well located to access all the other great areas (Petoskey, Mackinac Island, ski areas, golf courses, etc.). Don't miss out on this amazing spot for your next vacation!

Summary: Excellent location- 200 steps to a beautiful beach where you can walk for miles. 5 minutes to grocery store. Quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean, beds very comfortable, kitchen well equipped. Having the 2nd small kitchen was perfect for beverages. The children enjoyed the basement games but we had a perfect week of sunshine so spent most time outdoors. The outside seating area is well shaded. There are lots of beach toys, chairs and towels. The cottage half of the house (5 bedrooms) has AC; the newer half with 3 upstairs bedrooms has fans so was warm if evenings didn’t cool off. Overall a 5 star experience!
