perfect place to stay and ski
My wife and I spent a few days in this beautiful house skiing on Boyne Highlands. That was perfect place for us to stay - nice clean house with 5 minutes drive to the slopes. Good and very quiet with all what we need. Full kitchen with dishwasher, laundry if you need one and a lot of space for two of us. Will come again next year for our traditional Xmas skiing.

We found this place in kind of a last minute fashion and were very pleased with its proximity to not only Harbor Springs and Petoskey, but also the Tunnel of Trees.
