There is nothing quite like getting away from it all and soaking up the great outdoors here in Harbor Springs, so make Birchwood Beauty your next home base. Boasting the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comforts, this retreat will spoil each lucky guest from the moment you arrive. This house is a great large family home base for Northern Michigan golf, hiking, skiing, beach visits, Tunnel of Trees driving, and Mackinac Island vacations.
Inside, you will have plenty of room to spread out and mingle as this five-bedroom and five-bath getaway is split into two floors. Upstairs in the fully equipped kitchen, the chef of the group will have no trouble showing off their culinary skills using modern appliances, a beverage fridge, stainless steel finishes, ample counter space, and two coffee makers. The dining area seats ten people. The living room has a 65” flatscreen TV (provided is Netflix, Vudu, and Amazon Prime), plush furnishings, windows with limited views of Lake Michigan and nearby woods, lots of board games, and a see-through fireplace. The two upstairs bedrooms have king beds and flatscreen TVs.
The attached deck contains a roofed dining area, gas grill, and chiminea. Firewood is in the garage. Summer views are of the surrounding woods, and winter has plenty of Lake Michigan views.
There is free WiFi with download speeds up to 1Gb and eero wifi extenders to cover the whole house.
The ’Up North Man Cave’ downstairs contains a regulation-size pool table, foosball, dartboard, chessboard, hallway bowling alley, TV, younger kids play area, library, another beverage fridge, and a fully equipped small computer workstation.
