Amazing week!

We had an amazing time with family. We had space for everyone and really enjoyed the week inside and outside of the house. We cooked dinner outside over the fire, made s’mores, hunted for rocks, flew kites, and went to do lots of things they recommended to us! Great hosts and very responsive and excited to share their little slice of paradise with us! Amazing sunsets! The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed and some extra.

This was our second stay at this property. Everything was perfect and you can’t beat the beautiful lake view and private beach area! We even had great weather to make use of the fire pit.

A Piece of Pure Michigan

Gorgeous, well-maintained and appointed property just feet from the shores of Lake Michigan. This place is the perfect "home away from home" and will make you wish you had booked even more time away!Clean, well-stocked with everything you could possibly need/want, and a great location between Petoskey and Charlevoix. Quiet and peaceful. Comfortable beds. Gas fireplace for those chilly Michigan days. If you plan on cooking, the oven and rangetop are the best I've ever used in a rental.Truly an unforgettable, memorable experience. Hope to return again! TYSM

What an amazing home to vacation in!!! It truly had everything we needed (the 3 showers was clutch) and was in the perfect location. We stayed here for a week with our two girls (2 and 7) and my sister and brother in law and their two girls (1 and 4). The street was perfect for scooter/walks, and the bike path off the street was perfect for runs with lake views! We loved being in the middle of Petosky and Charlevoix- it was so easy to visit the towns each day if we wanted to check out the beaches or stores. The adults loved being on the water to enjoy the sunrise and sunset everyday when the kids were sleeping! It was also soo helpful to have the paddle boards, kayak, lily pad to use at the house when our littles napped and the big kids could still play. We cannot say enough good things about this home and Marjorie who left us a freshly baked pie upon arrival and was there to help us with any question or need all week. What a gem- we will be back next summer!

Great location- Beautiful home!!!

This home is well furnished, clean, beautifully decorated and well stocked! We loved having access to the water toys as well! Located perfectly between two fave towns - Charlevoix and Petoskey and close to Torch and Walloon Lakes. Two master suites are a huge bonus! Thanks for a wonderful stay!💙

Great lakehouse up north

Great lakehouse with views, nice beach with decent amount of sand. Water is a bit rocky so bring water shoes. Water toys are provided. Deck is awesome, basement hang-out area is great while grilling. Location is nice between Charlevoix & Petoskey so you can get to either town quickly for dinner/whatever.

Awesome Vacation Rental

This home was perfect for our group of 7. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, and seasonings. The view was beautiful. Sitting on the beach or by the fire pit was wonderful. They even had some firewood for us! When we arrived there was a warm pan of freshly made brownies, what a plus that was!! The owner and manager were very easy to correspond with and they responded very quickly to all of my messages. Short drive to either Petoskey or Charlevoix, and of course the wineries were close too. 😊

I had this trip planned for a year for our Mother's early 80th Birthday . From the moment we checked we felt special. Marjorie decorated the home for my Moms birthday, even made her Brownies ( very special touch) The owner could not of been more accommodating with his suggestions , exploring the area. Great golf course suggestions. We loved everything about this vacation home. It was perfect, great location, great Bike paths, love the area. Our neighbor Jeff shared his Kayaks and brought my Mother some beautiful flowers! Very nice surprise!. The home was very clean and we loved our own private beach area. We all agreed we would stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home!

Fantastic getaway in beautiful Northern Michigan

The purpose of our trip was rock hunting but we enjoyed so much more at this location. The house was perfect for us and the walk out basement to the beach provided access anytime for our bountiful hunting therapy. The home is beautiful and the kitchen well equipped for eating in-even including a crockpot to keep soup warm and ready when we were. The communication with Marjorie and Mike was great. The neighbors were friendly and welcoming. We had to go outside to see the sunset and it never disappointed. This home ranked number one of 15 for my sister and brother-in-law’s lodging for their first 15 of 50 Dates in 50 States. They both turn 50 this year. When we arrived the house had birthday decorations to help us celebrate. Great experience!
