8 Bedroom Cottage in Bay View

Beautiful cottage in premier location on the Bay side of historic Bay View, MI. Almost every room has a “Bay View.” There is one cottage next door so the lake views are partial while being pretty and soothing. Relax on the covered wrap around porch while sipping a drink and watching the stunning Bay View sunsets over the water. This 3700 plus square foot cottage is so large that 15 people can have privacy and alone time in any number of the rooms, including the large TV/Living room, the back deck, the wrap around front porch, the dining rooms, the kitchen, several other porches on the top floor, or in any of the lovely bedrooms. Nicely decorated throughout. There is a wet bar off of the kitchen with a mini fridge. There is a back deck with a gas grill for your use. Almost every bedroom has its own sink, and all have clean linens, towels, heater, luggage rack and room fan provided. There is no air conditioning. The breezes off of the lake keep this home cool. It is the closest rental cottage to the beach, the recreation area and the tennis courts. Stunning sunsets! The 8 bedrooms include 2 king beds, 3 queen beds, 2 double beds and 1 twin bed. Downstairs has 1 king and 1 queen bedrooms which connect to each other, with a door that closes for privacy. There is a half bath in one of them and a full bath in the other. Upstairs has a king bedroom which connects to a sitting room so it is a suite, 2 queen bedrooms, 2 double bedrooms and 1 single bedroom. Two double bedrooms have connecting doors to each other.

There is a full bath upstairs, a separate bath tub room and 2 rooms with toilets only that used to be telephone booths! This cottage was built in 1878 and is an historic site. It is one of the the largest cottages in Bay View and was one of the first to be built originally as a lodge, housing people while they built their cottages, so there are numbers on all the doors of the rooms. The woodwork throughout the cottage is stunning. If you like an historic cottage you will love this one! Bay View is noted for its beauty. There are parks, a Boys and Girls Club and the John M. Hall Auditorium located up on the hill which offers performances from music to films to plays to recitals. The Bay View Boys & Girls Club is the perfect way for your kids to engage with other kids during the day. And there are swimming, sailing and tennis lessons offered as well in the afternoons. Right next to the cottage is the northern Michigan bike path which leads in either direction to Petoskey, Charlevoix, Harbor Springs or further north. Mackinac Island is just a short trip away. There are many bike paths on the island that are both on the main road and off. Ice cream, fudge, any treat you can imagine. The fun is endless in this summer paradise!

Summary: Loved the older house, so cozy and homey, loads of character, yet all the essentials. Great kitchen and wet bar/coffee area. Comfortable beds with lovely views of the bay and sky. Biking distance to everything. Of course being almost right on beautiful Lake Michigan was wonderful as well. Truly enjoyed our stay. Definitely would stay again. Also Judy is a top notch host😁

Summary: She uses a professional house cleaner but I don’t think she knows that they aren’t cleaning properly. Baseboards are very dusty,windows aren’t clean,walls need attention. Love the house and location but mostly the owner of the house is fantastic woman.

Summary: This is our first time in this lovely home, and we all agreed we would come back again! Welcoming and very comfortable. We loved the tennis courts and spent almost every evening playing. The kids enjoyed the beach and the adults loved spending time on the front porch. The noise from the road took a little getting used to. We found the kitchen spacious for an older home.

Summary: Our family enjoyed this charming historic home, located a short walk from the shores of Little Traverse Bay. The house was clean and well equipped for our large group. We especially enjoyed the expansive porch, Bayview activities and the beach which was perfect for small children. The lack of AC made it uncomfortable on several atypical oppressive days however many fans were available for our use. Communication with the owner was excellent. This was a vacation to remember!

Summary: Nicely decorated and well supplied. Accommodated us and was conveniently located but too close to the main road.

Summary: Our family had a wonderful week in Bay View at Judy’s home. Its location is amazing, basically right on the water. The home is huge-we didn’t even use all of the bedrooms. Bay View is a charming town-enjoyed walking and biking and seeing all the Victorians. We sailed and kayaked as well as rented a b for tubing. Tons of great restaurants in Petoskey. Our family loved it and was sorry to see the week end.

Judy is very responsive and accommodating- highly recommend!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at the house. We had about 14 family members stay and there was plenty room for everyone. The house is beautiful and 2 minute walk to the beach and boat house for kayak and paddle board rentals. We rode our bikes into town a few times and enjoyed walking around the bay view neighborhood admiring the homes. We had a great trip!

Summary: This cottage has lots of character & lots of bedrooms. It is very spacious with a adequately equipped kitchen. It does have lovely views of Little Traverse Bay but is also near a busy, noisy road. The sunset each night on the giant L-shaped porch make this cottage a keeper.

Summary: Everything about this rental was perfect for accommodating a large family. The amenities were a delight for children and adults. The large lovely cottage provide plenty of space for our family. It was very close to the beach, the kiddie pool, boats that were available for rental and tennis courts. A short walk away was the campus of Bay View and all it has to provide, a library, playgrounds, performance venues, The Terrace Inn and much more. This cottage is also close drive to the shopping, dining and city life of Petoskey, Harbor Springs and Charlevoix. We will happily rent this home again and again, hopefully for years to come. Judy was always accessible to answer questions or to provide us with any guidance we required. We so appreciate your lovely cottage and the memories we made during our stay. Looking forward to working with you again soon.
