"The House on the Hill is a tiny gem of a B+B located strategically between the vacation zones of Traverse City and Charlevoix/Petosky and literally yards down the road from the exceptional cuisine and wine cellar of the Rowe Inn restaurant. The property is well maintained and on a unique setting with beautiful acreage for hiking and a gorgeouse lake view. But, it's not the location that makes House On the Hill a special place -- it is the owners, Marci and Phil Palajac. Genuinely caring about their guests, friendly without being overbearing, intuitive about what guests want. In only one visit of 3 evenings, my wife and I feel like we have made new friends. Marci's a terrific cook, with special breads, jams and breakfast entrees that are worthy of a great restaurant. Phil is a man comfortable discussing business or his bucket list and his adventures in foreign countries. Both are full of energy, yet able to relax and listen to others. We will be back for many more visits to come. We are already making plans for a return visit with our whole family!"
