Sweet B&B in Northport, MI
Brad was the most gracious host. The house is super amazing, clean, comfortable, and has so much character. Breakfast was delicious, and Brad's attention to detail is wonderful. We would highly recommend this B&B for a stay in northern Michigan.

We loved staying here. A highlight of our vacation. The ambiance is warm and welcoming. It's got a little cabin vibe. We loved it so much, we have reservations to go back in a few months.
