I was so happy with my families stay at “The Highlands at Harbor Springs!” Check in was warm and welcoming. Staff came to my car to unload ski boots and bags. Our room was beautiful!! A separate sitting area. It was snowing while we were leaving and the staff was getting the snow off of my car while I was packing the car. Very impressive service!!! My family will definitely be back!! Thank you!!!

Always a great stay, very family focused/friendly with a daily (almost hourly) activity offering. We’ve been at the pool when they randomly show up with berries and ice cream for all the kids, or we were pleasantly surprised to find a family fest during our last stay with face painting, balloon animals, and themed treats for all the kids. That being said there are some needed updates around the property. They do have a plan for renovation that is ongoing. The rooms have been updated BEAUTIFULLY and feel like such a value-just be prepared for some really dated spots as well. Love staying here and will be back!

Last minute deal!!

We booked as a "last minute deals". Given the first weekend in August in extremely busy - I was having trouble finding lodging. Price was more than ususally spend on hotels, we decided to splurge. Very happy that we did! The room was FABULOUS. Decorated very classy. I have never seen a bathroom as clean in any other hotel I've stayed at. Check in staff were AMAZING. Definitely will try to come back for a longer stay!
