Adorable Dog Friendly Home!! Fantastic Location!
The home was exactly like the pictures. Cozy, updated and a very short walk to downtown! Home was very clean and the A/C was already on when we arrived. Beds were very comfortable. Great layout for hanging out together. We especially loved the living room space and the outdoor eating area! Great array of dishes and glasses. The fenced in yard was a huge plus! We would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend:) we really enjoyed the whole downtown experience! Great food and entertainment!!

Family getaway
We had a wonderful time staying at this lovely home. My Dad loved sitting in the shade in the beautiful backyard, and our dog had a great time running in the fenced yard. Walked to downtown Bellaire and visited Shorts brewing, played golf at a few local courses, visited Torch Lake and Elk Rapids. Great location!

Return to Bellaire
We really enjoy this property with our family and dog. It is quiet and still walkable to downtown also 15 minutes from Schuss. My family has stayed here once before and will again in February this year. Thanks again for sharing, and we look forward to returning again.

New years trip with friends
6 friends came to stay at this cute property for new years. It was a great little get away location. Close to local shops and bars/restaurants. Made the drive to skybridge one day. Only complaint we couldn’t figure out the dishwasher. Great communication with the host. Cute property.

Perfect Area for 2023 Fall Color Tour
We get away every October to for a Color Tour of northern Michigan. We choose this home because the location was great for the 4 of us! It's only 20-30 minutes to fun areas like Charlevoix, Petoskey, Boyne City and Sky Bridge. We brought our dog so the large, fenced in backyard was very welcoming. Sue was very helpful when we needed anything and the communication was very good. We enjoy Bellaire as well. The house is walking distance to downtown. It is quaint, has some really good restaurants and pubs and lots of places to walk and see the beautiful Intermediate River going through the town. The home is decorated nicely, it's very clean and there are many conveniences available. The upstairs bedroom would be great for children or teens, as the ceiling is lower than we expected. All in all, we enjoy our stay and would return for another visit next year.

Up North Experience
Very cute decor and very clean. Such nice outdoor seating and all the kitchen amenities you can need. We were pleasantly surprised to find central air conditioning. You might emphasize they in your listing. Only thing negative was the previous tenants garbage sitting out on the street the entire time we were there and a note for your cleaning people - dust under the king bed! I dropped a piece of jewelry and had to look under the bed for it. Dust bunny haven!! Overall would definitely stay here again. Very pleasant.

Mother's Day Weekend in Bellaire
Beautiful home with a large fenced backyard, perfect for us to relax with our small dog and adult children. The house was clean and well decorated, beds were comfortable and the location was great for hiking and exploring the area. The doggie provisions, poop bags, a food bowl and a treat were a nice touch. Walking distance to Shorts too, a great bonus! Highly recommend this home and would stay here again!

FABULOUS full family (dog included!!) stay!
We were so pleased with our stay at this property. Our family includes 2 adults, 2 teens and one dog. Upon arrival, we noticed a dog welcoming basket, complete with an extra dish, some treats, a towel and some waste bags. This sweet gesture set the tone for such a lovely stay! The fenced in backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play without having to worry if their lead has been tangled or caught on anything. Inside, the home is so clean! There is no clutter, and there is plenty of space to store belongings for our stay. The kitchen has just enough supplies and utensils to be able to cook a meal. (We even made break and bake cookies for our kids.) The beds are super comfortable and the home's location ensures a quiet and peaceful stay. I really can't recommend this property enough. Every one of my questions was answered and the property owner was super responsive to our requests. This property is only 15 minutes from Schuss Mountain, and only 3 minutes to the nearest supermarket, coffee shop and gas station. The home is located just one block away from downtown, just a quick, beautiful walk in nice weather. We will certainly stay here again! Thank you very much!

Perfect place for a ski weekend!
We enjoyed our stay and especially liked the entry with the cubbies! We all had our own cubby to store our ski gear and take our shoes off before entering the main living area. Sue was very communicative and responsive to an issue we had an issue the second day. She took care of it right away before we left for the slopes. Also, it is pet friendly and I was thrilled we could bring our fur baby for the weekend.

Charming home, a Shorts walk to town
Great space with an artistic flair. The fenced yard with a well lit bbq shed with propane grill were added touches that made the space feel greater. Well laid out, the loft is vertically challenged however. An up to date vacation home. Thanks for sharing! Would like to see it in the summer or fall.
