Harbor Springs holiday house

Lake Effect is located on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan s Little Traverse Bay and only a few minutes north of Harbor Springs. This is in a beautiful neighborhood of distinctive lakefront homes and near a nature preserve. Follow a planked path and steps from the house to a small deck near the lake. You can walk along a natural rocky shoreline that has interspersed sand and natural vegetation for miles. Search for Petoskey Stones, find driftwood, or watch the sunset. It is not unusual to see an occasional fox, deer or other woodland critters passing through.

The house has 3 bedrooms, 3 and 1/2 baths and will accommodate 6 people. The main level has a comfortable open floor plan and includes the living room, dining room, kitchen and a 1/2 bath. Tables near the windows and on the main deck allow you to enjoy the panorama while dining or lounging. The fully equipped kitchen has modern stainless steel appliances including dual convection ovens. A gas grill is conveniently located on the kitchen patio. The living room has a wood burning fireplace and TV/VCR/DVD. Upstairs is the Master Bedroom with a king bed, TV, vaulted ceiling with remote fan control and windows facing the bay. The private bath has a jetted whirlpool tub, walk in shower, dual sinks and a walk in closet. A second bedroom with a queen bed has a ceiling fan, and there is a full bath in the hall.

The lower level has a third bedroom with 2 twins and TV, an office, full bath, laundry room and a family room with a TV and table for games. A door exits to access the stairs up to the main deck and the steps down to the lakefront. Nearby is downtown Harbor Springs for dining and recreation. Golf at world class courses in the area, all just a short drive from this home. Take day trips to area resort towns: Boyne City, Charlevoix, Bay Harbor, Petoskey, Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island, or cross the bridge to St. Ignace.
