Petosky visit
Karen shares her property providing a clean, comfortable and private apartment. A block away from a fantastic walkway along the lake. Petosky State Park is a short drive and has a beautiful walking beach. There is another nice trail along the river which is within walking distance from the apartment. Karen provided everything we needed for a perfect stay. We hope to return one day. So much to see in beautiful Michigan. Thank you, Karen

What I most enjoyed was the view from the deck. Beautiful. The location is very close to Bayfront Park and walking distance to downtown. The interior was very clean, comfy and well stocked. I would love to stay there again when I go back to Petoskey.

Best VRBO to Date
Of all the VRBOs we have stayed at (in several states), this one is the most like home as far as having all the things we need. It is very comfortable, and in great walking distance of the shops and restaurants downtown. The hostess is very pleasant and does a great job communicating. This is our second stay at this rental, and I daresay not the last.

What a view and great place
The initial view of the lake thrilled us. It was the perfect location for an easy walk to the beach, or into town, or an easy bike ride to the great Little Travers Wheelway. The living area was clean, cozy and had everything we needed. Karen was a pleasure to work with and communicated promptly. We’ll be back.

Perfect Little Getaway
My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and loved it! Although the rental space is only the 2nd floor of the building, it is still very spacious and is about the size of a standard one bedroom apartment. The owner was very communicative and we were given plenty of information before our arrival. The location is also only a short drive (or long walk) from downtown Petoskey, which made it very convenient for us to hop around town.

Karen’s Guest Suite is so relaxing and comfortable. She has fully stocked everything that you can think you may need, and then some. Her response time is almost immediate and she went over and above to accommodate our needs. The bed is very comfortable and we loved the water view! We stayed only 1 night and will definitely book with her again for a longer stay. We highly recommend staying with Karen.
