Harbor Springs, MI: A Place Where Time Slows Down 

Looking for a warm and welcoming community and natural beauty all year round? That’s precisely what you get in Harbor Springs, situated on Lake Michigan’s Little Traverse Bay. But unlike some quaint communities, Harbor Springs provides you with tons of things to do! 

Activities in and around Harbor Springs 

With a second home in Harbor Bay, you’ll find yourself checking out local art galleries, enjoying a meal overlooking the lake, or taking your boat out on the deepest freshwater harbor on the Great Lakes. Also enjoy biking, swimming, hiking, and golfing at one of the many beautiful courses in the area. Plus there’s a calendar full of festivals, gallery exhibitions, concerts, and theatre performances! 

Skiing is also a huge part of the fun in Northern Michigan; and with two ski resorts located between Harbor Springs and Petoskey, there is no shortage of terrain for snowmobiling, downhill, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and more.  

Enjoy fall fun in Harbor Springs 

While summer is chock-full with outdoor activities, fall is one of the best times to make that extended weekend trip to your second home in Harbor Springs. You can’t miss out on a drive through the Tunnel of Trees to the nearby Cross River, which is surrounded by the beautiful autumn colors. Plus, the waters are still warm for swimming and other recreational water activities. And with the many events such as Taste of Harbor Springs and Great Lakes Glass Pumpkin Patch, there is much to do this time of the year.

Welcome to this quintessential Original Bliss Log Home in the amazing Hidden Gem of Goodhart, the Sequoia Yacht Club, a small association that shares 328 feet of the most pristine west-facing Lake Michigan frontage that you will find. Everything about the vintage Bliss Cottage is authentic, from the local stone floor to the vaulted-ceiling fireplace to the unmistakable exterior aesthetic with original shutters and a great screened-in porch for extra dining, reading, or entertaining space, complete with a wood-burning stove for the shoulder seasons. Inside, you will find 2 main-floor bedrooms, laundry, and a full bath on the main floor, plus a classic Northern Michigan sleeping loft with an additional bathroom. 9770 Hemlock Trail is being offered "turnkey," including everything, and the current owners do lightly short-term rent when not using it, which is allowed in this association, so if you wanted to defray the cost of ownership, everything is set up and ready to start monetizing. The house is Northern Michigan perfect; the real star, though, is the beach, sugar sand and enormous, with an association rack to store paddle boards or kayaks and all just a short walk from the home. In addition, there are nature trails and unique pathways for kids and adults to meander away from any traffic and M-119 for quiet enjoyment of the woods, the way Northern Michigan used to be and is supposed to be. Appointment required and contingent upon tenants, so if you wish to schedule a private tour, please allow some lead time.
