Family funeral

A family member who lives in Petoskey passed away so we needed a quick place to stay on last minute’s notice. My husband found this place as last resort since everywhere was booked! It’s a very cute place and just what we needed. Being near Lake Michigan is always beautiful. ***** beach towels would have been nice 😉

Great stay!

This was our 2nd year renting this property. Such a perfect location and a great place to relax between all the places we like to visit in town. Highly recommend JoJo’s Cookies just off of 31 while in town and it’s just down the road from a beautiful park and playground overlooking Lake Michigan that our kiddo loved to play at during our stay.

Third Stay

We love the location and view for this property. Lovely walking trail along Bear River almost right across the street. Perfect for two - downstairs unit great for more. Owners very easy to communicate with and very responsive. We have already booked our 4th stay for '23 which says it all.

Perfect stay!

The view is absolutely worth the trip to Petoskey! Sitting on the porch and taking in that view was my favorite part of the trip. Our kiddo loved how close the water was so that he could go rock hunting as often as he wanted. The town is super close and we loved being able to walk there and grab another cup of gelato anytime we wanted. :) The paved trails that you can access right in front of the house are amazing for walking and biking. The views from those trails are exceptional. The second floor of the house was perfect for us. The bed was comfy and the pull out sofa was nice as well. All the utensils, pans, plates, etc. that we needed for cooking dinner were there. The place was very clean and it was quiet, so I can't really find anything about it that I would change. It was the perfect trip and we were sad to leave. We are already looking at dates for next year to visit again. It was the exact trip we needed to decompress and relax before the kids head back to school. Would highly recommend!

Amazing location

You really can't beat the location of this property. View is breath taking and it is within walking distance to all that Petosky has to offer. Unit was clean and well stocked (although if you have 4 people staying a few extra pillows and towels would be nice. There is only 1 per guest) We will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

Perfect Petoskey Accommodation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this charming property in Petoskey. As advertised, there are lovely views and it's a great location! It's a very short walk to the village shops, there are well-maintained bicycle paths, and there are several other northern Michigan towns a short drive away. We will return next year!

Great place for a couple or one person

The place was cute and clean etc. Great location and views. 4 people is pushing it. I stayed there by myself and my sons and their wives stayed in another 4 br house. Property owner is very strict on visitors, parties etc. to the point I never had my family over. So I would recommend but only for a couple alone or with one child.

About the host

Hosted by JLM Rentals - Leslie

Host profile image
We are Jeff and Leslie, retired professionals who love to travel and enjoy live. We have four homes (located in Galveston, TX, Northern Michigan - Petoskey, Southern CA - Ventura and a condo in NYC on the upper west side) all of our homes are set up as vacation rentals. We bounce between our homes based on seasons and rental schedules. During the summer we works as aquitic and waterfront directors at over-night youth summer camp in the Poconos.

During spring and fall we typically plan a 6 - 8 weeks international trip, which usually includes 30 days of cruising. When we are traveling you may get a response back from our daughter-in[law Melissa.

Why they chose this property

During the summer of 2008 on a road trip to an annual conference in Lexington, KY we drove through this unknown to us, placed called Petoskey. The 26 mile bike trail on the lake looked very inviting but we didn't have the time to stop and enjoy it. The next summer on out way to the conference we blocked out a day to rent a bike and check-out the trail. At the start of the ride we noticed a 'for sale' sign on a house on the lake. That night we scheduled an appointment to walk through the house before we headed South. We went on to the conference and as soon as it was over we drove back up and sign the paperwork. Instead of buying a mug we bought a house. We were living in California at the time and all of our family and friends thought we were crazy to be buying a something in Northern Michigan. That was before they came for a visit - they now understand . . .
