Lots of local dining options and a yoga studio all within a few blocks.

Going out not your thing? This home also has everything you'd need to stay in and cozy up, either on the front patio with grill & fire pit or inside where the furnishings are comfy and lake vibes are strong.

Lake Time

Inside good lake house.Kitchen is very nice. Tv and available apps is great.Sitting area could use a chair or recliner. Beds were comfortable. Bathrooms were fine but shower needs shut off repair it drips.Did not use kids room with video game and other games but looked like a lot to keep kids entertained.Outside needs some updating front patio needs some updating also. Just my opinion. It was very convenient for us because only a block away from Point Harbor.Would stay again.

Birthday Dog Vacation

I came for my birthday and brought my two dogs - the cottage is absolutely beautiful and spacious. The bedrooms were super cute and the beds were comfy ! The decor is fantastic and very cute. I loved playing the Nintendo and having a fire right out the door was perfect! I made so many s'mores The area was fantastic and sooooo close to the donut shop ! I walked both my dogs to the water and we went to fox Island as suggested! Such a beautiful quiet spot ! The whole area is very dog friendly and the local food is great !! I definitely plan on coming back - I cannot say enough great things about my stay !

Excellent all around :)

This place was lovely, nice upgrades, cute ascetic! With our family having a permanent homes in the area, we will definitely be back. Happy to find this place!Couple small suggestions for improvement. Couches had quite a bit of pet hair, and blankets for use with pullout also had had lots of pet hair and needed washing. Could not adjust tv volume for main tv - couldn’t find remote, volume was super loud and was not able to watch the tv. Might be helpful to label remote controls.Both bathrooms had 2 lights out. Also would be helpful to have 2 keys.

Excellent Stay

We needed a place to stay for a long weekend in February. It was cold and snowy out but we had a nice warm cottage to relax in. No complaints. It is in a beautiful area with the lake nearby.

Writer’s retreat paradise!

Such a beautiful place for a writer to tuck in and be inspired. Quiet, peaceful and all the amenities to help me focus. Excellent communication with the hosts—they checked in with me prior to the weekend and responded promptly when I had a question. How many stars can I give?? 5+++ Will definitely be back.

Wonderful place to stay

The cottage was exactly as pictured on the website, getting to the cottage was extremely easy, everything was clean and we had all that we needed. They even went the extra mile and had small makeup towels for me. The bath towels were large and absorbent (which makes a difference when you normally get small white thin towels)! Most places we go to were within walking distance. Overall, this was a very pleasant place to stay and definitely a do-over!!

Quiet, quaint getaway

Happy Harbor was the perfect little bungalow getaway from my friend and I. Plenty of space to lounge, cook, and do some art together. Lots of choices for food and drink nearby - walking or short drives. Emily was great with communication.

Awesome Getaway

We had a wonderful time at Happy Harbour cottage. The cottage is adorable and beautifully decorated. We were within walking distance of several great places to grab a bite/drink. Owners absolutely wonderful!! We traveled with our cat, Frankie, who gave the place 2 paws up! We will definitely be coming back.

Perfect for family relaxation

We aren't far from home so I didn't pack much for the kids to do. Our kids were very happy to see a video game console (old school, which kept their attention longer than even our Switch at home), many board games, kids books, legos, and even stuffies. There was plenty of space for all 5 of us plus our dogs. The beds and pull out couch are all comfortable. They provided plenty of amenities including a book with all the local favorite places. We spent hours at the beach, took lots of walks, enjoyed the play grounds, and tried a few restaurants. We can't wait to boom again!

Even though the place is very small, it is the cutest thing and perfect for our short weekend trip. Good quality items inside as well. The outdoor area feels very secluded with the trees across the street.
