About this property
The Highlands Ski-In/Ski-Out Luxe Retreat: Your Premier Four Seasons Escape!
ABOUT THE RENTAL Perched at the top of Andover Club at The Highlands of Harbor Springs, this privately owned seven-bedroom, seven-bath luxury home is designed for adventure, comfort, and connection.
During the winter season, step right out your back door onto the Lois Lane ski run for true ski-in/ski-out convenience. In warmer months, the expansive backyard and patio invite you to relax and entertain with a private hot tub, built-in natural gas grill, custom firepit, and ample outdoor seating—perfect for evenings under the stars.
Inside, the main level features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, and comfortable seating for the whole group. It’s ideal for gathering, watching football, playing games, or simply enjoying each other’s company. The main floor also includes a guest suite with a walk-in tiled shower and Jacuzzi tub, and a second bedroom with two twin beds and a full bath across the hall. A brand-new addition off the kitchen adds even more space, including a kid-favorite bunk room with attached bath and a private workout room leading to the laundry area and spacious primary suite overlooking Lois Lane.
Head downstairs to the lower level, where a second living area offers the perfect hangout spot for kids or teens. Three additional bedrooms complete this level—two with ensuite baths and one with a full bath just across the hall.
Surrounded by beautifully manicured landscaping and designed for all-season enjoyment, this stunning slope-side retreat offers privacy, style, and unforgettable experiences for families and groups alike. Please note: All-wheel or four-wheel drive is recommended to access the property during the winter season.
The following is a layout of the home:
Main Level Master Suite with King (ensuite w/ double sinks & shower) Master Suite with King (ensuite w/single sink, shower, tub) Bedroom with Two Twins (detached bathroom w/ single sink, tub/shower combo) Bunkroom with 8 Total Twins (ensuite with double sinks & shower)

We really enjoyed the house and spent a lot of tome outside by the far pit playing cornhole and laughing.
We were a group of four families with small kids. We loved our stay. The skiing accessibility was great, coming home for homemade lunches and large group dinners were highlights of our stay. We had the best weekend. Thanks for the memories!
We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. It's especially nice to have 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms so everyone has their own space. The backyard is awesome and the personal touches in the house made it feel like home.
The house was very nice and as it was described in the listing. It was close to all the activities that we were interested in, shopping and golf. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommended this property to others. The contact people were easy to deal with and responsive. We had a great time.
The property was absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. Just a quick drive into town. The kitchen had everything you can think of. All bedrooms and bathrooms were a great size. We will definitely be back.

This was a gorgeous house to stay in for the weekend. The fall colors were beautiful. Plenty of space for a group of people. Everything was updated and very clean!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Highlands. The property was fabulous, spacious, and full of amenities. We spent every evening in your wonderful backyard enjoying the hot tub, grill, and fire pit. Although we did not need to leave the property to have fun we took advantage of the close proximity of nearby activities (ziplining, beach, shopping, etc) in Harbor Springs and Petosky. Thank you for sharing your property, it is a gem.
This was an excellent property for our group. We enjoyed the space and all the amenities such as the hot tub, the outdoor grill and fire pit and the numerous bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and the house was extra clean. Our group consisted of eight men vying for our annual golf championship. A wouderful time was had by all.

Great house overall! We had plenty of room for our 16 golfers. The house was clean with several gathering spaces including the outdoor areas. Would definitely rent this home again.
This house, which has been newly enlarged, is terrific. It was clean, extremely comfortable and spacious, with a nice backyard area and hot tub. The kitchen was generally well equipped, although missing a few items like a salad spinner, cocktail glasses, etc. Our kids and their cousins loved sharing the bunk room. I would not hesitate to rent it again.
House and facilities were in great shape and fit what was promised. House was clean and very usable for a larger amount of people and most everyone had their own private space and bathroom. One suggestion would be to have firewood available rather than leave to the renters who now have to go and find it. Would go back next year

For our family of 8 adults and 8 children between the ages of 12 and 1 this hour was perfect! The older children loved the bunk room and the adults loved having 4 master bedrooms. The kitchen and living area was great for gathering, eating, talking. What the children loved most were the bike runs that they could access just across the street. Can't wait till we can come back!

Beautiful home with tons of space for parents, grandparents, and grandchildren. We had so much fun staying at this property. We unfortunately couldn't use the ski in/ski out because the North side of the mountain wasn't open. However, easy to get to the day lodge and plenty of room in the garage and mud room to load and unload gear. The house was clean and inviting. The TV in the living room had connectivity issues but the rest of the TVs worked fine. The management team for the property were super friendly and helpful with getting there and leaving information. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home, very clean, very well maintained. We stayed with 4 families and loved ample space, bedrooms with king beds for all the adults, and en suite or nearby full bathrooms for all. Hotel quality bedding and linens. Ski-in/Ski-out is wonderful to a very easy green run called Lois Lane (note: as of Jan. 2024, the Interconnect lift to this run closes at 3:30pm, so you can't return to this location during night skiing). The location is great, but note that the home is uphill from the resort base area and very difficult to get up the hill and the home's driveway in deep snow. AWD/4WD and or snow tires are needed. No complaints - only happy visitors. We'd definitely stay here again!
My family, my husbands parents, his two brothers and their families all stayed at this incredible house. I would say it exceeded our expectations including the amenities/accessories in the house. We way overpacked, as the kitchen and bathrooms had pretty much everything we needed.
7 tweens and teen boys shared the bunk room. The two girls had their own twin beds, and each adult pair had their own room. This left one room to spare, which some of the boys in the bunk room needed because their cousins wouldn’t be quiet at night. The outdoor space was great. The boys LOVED mountain biking on site. The rest of us enjoyed hiking! Heading into Petoskey, Mackinac Island, and just hanging out at the house. The house has a perfect blend of community space when we wanted to be together, and places to go when one needed to get away from others. For family that came from out of state and thus did not bring groceries, it was a long drive to the nearest grocery store. That was the only down side for some members of our party. I would absolutely recommend this venue to others! Thank you for sharing your home with us, as we all agreed we will cherish the memories we made!
Great family property. Plenty of room to spread out or congregate together. We enjoyed the firepit several nights.

We had a great three-generation family stay in July/August 2024 with twenty guests ranging from 18 months to 74 years. Highlight of the property were the ample bedrooms and bathrooms and also the spacious outdoor patio with hot tub. Also, I should mention the kitchen was much better equipped than other rentals we have used (children's plates and silverware was a nice touch!) The biggest concern was that the living areas capacity did not meet the needs for our large group - family room seated 10 (with office chair), Dining area seated 12 (with kitchen island), upstairs deck seated a cramped 10 and downstairs basement seated 10 also. The 8 person bunk room was small for the full grown teenagers and young adults that we had in there. Highlights away from the home was an outstanding day trip to Mackinaw Island, plus trips to Petosky state park, harbor springs and Pirates Cove putt-putt.
