Lovely cabin on the Lake!
This is our second visit to Harkness Cabin. It’s a great location to sit, relax and enjoy the wildlife of the northern Michigan forest. We had everything we needed to prepare several large meals and sit comfortably on the deck and in the dining area with our guests. It’s close to Harbor Springs and Petoskey for a quick shopping trip through the quaint shops. We love this side of Burt Lake and will likely return. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Wonderful Week
Everything about the Harkness Cabin is great! The online photos don’t do the backyard and lake views justice! The yard is such a great space for the kids to run around with fabulous lake views. The kitchen is well appointed and the beds are very comfortable.

Very Nice Home
We enjoyed the house, great views with nice amenities. One suggestion would be a laminated card with fire place instructions.
Will be awesome for anyone with a boat for a summer vacay.
