Welcome to The Bird House
At Premium Stay Rentals, we believe luxury should feel warm—not intimidating. The Bird House is thoughtfully designed for families who want a beautiful space that actually works for real life.
Spacious gathering areas. Cozy corners. Calm wooded privacy. The kind of place where mornings start slow, kids laugh a little louder, and everyone feels at home.
As Harbor Springs vacation homes go, The Bird House is a different category — a private home that sleeps 11, 10 minutes from downtown, 7 from Nub’s Nob. Enough space that the group isn’t on top of each other. Close enough that nothing feels like a production to get to.

Luxury That Welcomes Families
This is where cousins pile into bunk rooms and breakfast turns into a pancake tradition. Where kids explore and parents exhale. Where the best part of the trip is simply being together—without rushing.
