About Thomas & Jill

We live in Novi, Michigan and have enjoyed our cottage in Harrisville for many years. We have 2 children and a dog.

Thomas & Jill purchased this house in 2002
Why Thomas & Jill chose Harrisville

We orginally fell in love with this property for its quiet beachfront location with miles of walking beach. The house is in a very wooded area, but the view to the lake is unobstructed. The house is next door to a state park - very private location with only one neighbor.

What makes this house unique

We enjoy the quietness that comes from having the light house state park right next to our property.

We spend a lot of time at the beach sunbathing and swimming. In the evenings and at night we have fire in the beachside firepit, make s'mores and gaze at the beautiful starlit sky.

We enjoy going to Harrisville for dinners and entertainment and in particular the spectacular 4th of July fireworks.

We enjoy beachwalks and bike rides on the quiet streets.

Catch fresh trout yourself at the trout farm only one mile from the house on the way to town.

Fabulous!

5 of 5
Submitted: November 4, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
We truly enjoyed our time here. We were there with another couple and no children. The view is amazing, and we enjoyed the gazebo very much for card playing and conversation. The home is very clean and the beds are comfortable with nice linens. It was so nice to be able to use the garage, as well as having the washer and dryer right there. We loved walking the beach to the Sturgeon Point lighthouse. We would definitely return to this comfortable, quiet Lake Huron getaway.

Summer vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: August 11, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
This cottage was a perfect fit for a family with young children. The home was clean, with a lot of space and wonderful views from all around the home. Having a bathroom in the master suite and one on the main floor was a plus. The beach/water right out of the back of the property was a little too rocky to enter, however just as we were told by the owners clear entry with a sandy beach was only a few steps away. The water was wonderful, clear with a hard sand bottom! We walked out for over 200 yards and could still touch! We felt like we were on our own private beach since the property sits next to a state park. The kayaks were wonderful to use most anytime of the day. Just a small issue with sand gnats and black flies that liked to bite by the water or in the back yard. If you are looking for a relaxing vacation with a lot of peace and quiet and beuatiful views, this is a great place to enjoy it!

Beautiful Modern Beach Home

We stayed for a week with 2 adults and 3 small children. We had an amazing vacation. The house was very nice. Really - much nicer than we even expected! Everything you could need is there waiting for you when you arrive. The beach is beautiful and we spent all day everyday on the beach playing with the kids.

Incredible Place and Location

5 of 5
Submitted: August 3, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We had a blast. There were 6 adults and 2 kids ages 2 and 5. We loved it up there and were really sad that we had to leave. It was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. The house had all the amenities we needed and was located on such a perfect location. We hung out at the beach most of the time and went Petoskey Rock picking by the Sturgeon Point Lighthouse. We even found the shipwreck through our many walks on the beach. Everything was excellent and we had a fabulously great time. Maybe we will be back next year :)

The only thing I would recommend is take bug spray with you- those little pesty gnats come out at night and can be a bit annoying around the campfire.

Great Vacation Home!

5 of 5
Submitted: July 21, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
What a lovely place for rest and relaxation! The house was beautiful and the views were spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and appreciated the many “extras” that came with this well equipped home; we were especially thankful for great air conditioning! The owners and caretakers were great communicators and answered any question immediately and treated us with the utmost respect and kindness. The swimming was great after getting past the rocks – if you walk down a little way, it is much less rocky. I have to say, the huge rocks jutting out from the surface of the water added beauty and the view was worth walking down a bit to swim. There is not much to do in Harrisville, but Oscoda and Alpena are have much more to offer and are not far away. If you want to fish, you need a something larger than a kayak (which were great fun), and we could not find a boat rental in the area so you will need to bring your own. Again, this was a beautiful, relaxing place with beautiful views and lots of beach - it was so awesome to have Lake Huron a few steps from your door!
