Modern & Tastefully Decorated Home in Birchwood Farms, Near Ski Hills & Downtown Harbor Springs!
Nestled in the trees of Birchwood Farms, this bright and clean modern home is ready to host your group for your next trip to Northern Michigan! Upon entering the home into the foyer, you are welcomed by an open staircase that lets light travel from the front to the back of the home. Clean and crisp painted walls of neutral colors allow for a very relaxing feeling throughout the home. Enjoy the wood burning fireplace or take a peek in the cabinet to pull out a game or puzzle on a rainy day. The dining area is located around either side of the fireplace with furnishings that offer clean, modern lines. The dining table can seat six with an extra two seats at the kitchen counter bar. The kitchen and dining area are open to each other which allows those in the kitchen to be part of the conversations elsewhere. Plenty of light pours in during the day and the second set of oversized sliding doors offer another entrance to the wraparound deck. Granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances make this kitchen easy to cook and enjoy meals at the home. The primary suite is located on the main level and offers a king bed, TV with cable, and a third entrance to the deck. The spacious primary bathroom has plenty of counter space, a soaking tub, and stand-alone shower with another entrance off from the foyer to offer a bathroom to the main level of the home. The oversized laundry room is located off from the kitchen as well as a door to a screened-in porch area that connects to the one-car garage. Upon taking the stairs to the landing area which overlooks the living room are two bedrooms located on each end of the home. One upper level guest room has a queen bed and the other has two twin beds. Both bedrooms have a TV with cable and a Roku setup where you can login to your streaming accounts. There is a recently updated second bath on the upper level to service the guest rooms. Very clean and comfortable home!

Fun relaxed weekend
Overall satisfaction
Reviewer from Plainwell, MI recommends this vacation rental
Stayed 3 days ending in October, 2024
Our stay was an early Fall weekend getaway to northern Michigan, The house was clean and accommodating to our general needs. We had drinks on the deck and grilled a couple meals. <br/>House was clean and conveniently located for our side trips. Kichen was very efficient. Had plenty of dishes and cooking tools, coffee maker, etc. Bathrooms clean. Grill Worked fine. Nice deck.<br/>Minor issues - Mattresses seemed a bit "lumpy, soft". TV operation a bit of a challenge. If you're used to Spectrum, you'll probably be ok. For us, was not very easy to use. Other amenities were available, but we did not use them (eg fireplace, games, etc). A good choice for a relaxed weekend or longer. <br/>

House is all new, clean and fresh. This is a great spot for a quick weekend trip up north with easy access to Harbor Springs and then also having Birchwood CC available for dining, golf, tennis, pool, etc.

We had a lovely stay at the Modern Birchwood Cottage<br/> Everything was just as pictured, and just as described, online. We enjoyed all the home amenities, the beautiful setting in the woods, and the Harbor Springs location. We were close to golf, hiking trails, bike trails, and shopping and dining in Harbor Springs and Petoskey. We hope to return to Modern Birchwood Cottage in the future.

We have stayed in more than 40 rental properties over the years and this was one of the best we've stayed in. Great location. Everything was really excellent. The owners provide many welcome and thoughtful touches that are usually absent. Many are simply things like condiments, plentiful paper kitchen roll, toiletries, quality towels and bedding, and details about local eateries and places to visit. Together it makes for a superior experience. Additionally, it has a chef's kitchen with Kitchen Aid appliances, Henckel knives, diverse glasssware and utensils, and abundant crockery. My impression is that the owners offer an experience that they would seek when renting themselves. We would certainly not hesitate to return for another vacation.
