Downtown Cottage (also known as Harbor Cottage)

Downtown Cottage is a charming, bright, one-level retreat located in the heart of Munising. This air-conditioned cottage offers comfortable, thoughtfully designed accommodations ideal for couples, friends, or small families looking to enjoy the best of town and nearby Lake Superior.

The cottage features two guest bedrooms with luxurious beds and quality bedding to ensure a restful night’s sleep. One bedroom offers a new queen size bed, while the second includes a double size bed and a single sofa sleeper is located in the living room to comfortably sleeping up to five guests.

The fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, beautiful dinnerware, a dining area, and a lovely Lake Superior view. The cozy living room is tastefully furnished, creating a warm and inviting space to relax after a day of exploring.

Downtown Cottage can be rented on its own or together with the neighboring property, Doc’s Place. Originally designed as the guest cottage to Doc’s Place, each home now offers its own private space, separate entrance, and dedicated amenities when rented individually—making this an ideal option for families or groups who want to stay close while still enjoying their own space.

Step outside and enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance to Bayshore Park, where you can stroll the beach, watch boats in the harbor, or browse the local farmer’s market for fresh produce, baked goods, and wood-fired pizza prepared by local vendors. Dairy Queen is located just across the street, and Gallery Coffee & Event Space is an easy walk away. You’ll also find local breweries, food trucks, unique shops, art galleries, and seasonal events nearby, making it easy to explore Munising without needing your car.

Munising is the gateway to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, known for its dramatic sandstone cliffs, sea caves, waterfalls, and scenic Lake Superior shoreline.
