Great location, the house was very nice.My only “concern” was that listing says you get the entire house, but there is actually a separate upper unit as well. The accommodations are still great, I just would have preferred it more private.

This property has a fantastic location overlooking Lake Michigan with a beach, pier and marina just a few yards away. Despite the wonderful location it was actually quiet! We also enjoyed the two block walk to downtown Petosky and the wooded trails along a stream which were just across from the front of the house. We have already discussed another stay at this property.

Great property in a perfect location

We stayed at the JLM property on family vacation. Very good communication from the owners to help prepare us. Checking in was a breeze. The property was terrific; clean and comfortable. The location is perfect; right across the street from break water pier, bike path, beach and bayfront park. Our favorite part was the covered deck that looks out over the bay; wonderful place for family meals and morning coffee. We will definitely stay with them again.

New Years in Petoskey

This is just about the perfect location, with views of the water and walkability to downtown restaurants. There was plenty of space to spread out given the extra winter gear we brought along. It’s a short trip to local ski resorts with its central location between Boyne and Nubs/Highland. There was an issue with the cleaning company not coming prior to our arrival but the owner responded immediately to fix it.

Perfect location and clean

We had a wonderful stay with our family of five. The kids loved the bunk beds and we were able to have our 3yo sleep in pack n play in the back room with sliding door. Bed was comfortable, tons of streaming options, and super close to town and the lighthouse. Wasn't loud outside at all. Make sure to bring small kitchen items if you plan to cook otherwise you'll need to purchase there, items like oil, salt/pepper, etc. Plenty of plates and pans though. Really great to have the laundry on-site and worked really well. Would definitely stay again!
