The location of the house is very central and not a far drive from Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Charlevoix, but we had a huge bug problem. LOTS of bugs in the shower, bedroom, kitchen, pretty much all throughout the house. Not sure where they were getting in from. Also it was a little deceiving from the pictures. It makes it look like you have a private dock, but that is not the case. We brought our dog which was nice and the backyard was good for her to run around.
