Bay Harbor is widely recognized as one of Northern Michigan’s premier luxury waterfront communities, offering a rare blend of Lake Michigan shoreline, resort-style amenities, and thoughtfully designed neighborhoods.
Offering luxury homes, Lake Michigan views, and a resort-style lifestyle, Bay Harbor is unique and unlike anywhere else in the region. Located between Petoskey and Charlevoix, Bay Harbor blends coastal elegance with year-round recreation, attracting buyers searching for upscale waterfront properties, second homes, and luxury retreats.
Known for its marina, golf courses, waterfront dining, and beautifully maintained neighborhoods, Bay Harbor provides a unique combination of privacy, convenience, and high-end amenities. Homes range from waterfront estates and golf course residences to village-style properties within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the marina.
