Escape to the stunning shores of Lake Charlevoix at this exquisite house, situated on over 5 acres with 230 feet of frontage at the geographical center of Oyster Bay. This property truly is the Pearl of Oyster Bay, offering unparalleled views and a private dock suitable for vessels between 16 and 30 feet in length.* Just a short 3-mile drive to downtown Charlevoix, and within easy reach of Petoskey, Boyne City, Harbor Springs, Walloon Lake, Lake Charlevoix Public Beach, Lake Michigan, and more, this location is ideal for exploring all that northern Michigan has to offer.

Indulge in the ultimate lakeside retreat with floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of Lake Charlevoix from the heart of Oyster Bay. Relax on the back deck as the lake glistens during golden hour, or head down to the private sugar sand beach for sunbathing, sandcastle building, and swimming in the shallow, child-friendly waters. In the evenings, gather around the beach firepit for cozy campfires under the stars, or unwind in the hammock with a good book and soak in the tranquility of nature.

This house boasts an audiophile indoor/outdoor sound system to enhance your experience, along with a range of amenities including a jetted tub, wood-burning fireplace, gas grill, and more. Whether you're sipping cocktails on the deck, observing wildlife from the adjacent nature preserve, or exploring the nearby golf courses and state parks, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Whatever the season, there is no shortage of activities. From biking along the Little Traverse Wheelway to wine tasting at Blu Dot Winery, sunset views in downtown Charlevoix, and teeing off at premier golf courses, to skiing at Boyne Mountain, Boyne Highlands, Nubs Nob, and Shanty Creek, the possibilities for adventure and relaxation are endless. Make unforgettable memories at this waterfront oasis in Charlevoix, where every moment is filled with beauty and serenity.

Please note: Water levels may vary year to year due to natural causes. While the private dock typically accommodates vessels up to 40 feet under ideal conditions, this season’s water levels are lower, and we recommend vessels between 16 and 30 feet for docking. Owners cannot be responsible for fluctuations in water level or any damage to vessels. If water levels are lower than average, boaters can anchor in the bay and dinghy in or dock their boat at the nearby Charlevoix Marina.

Stunning Lake Charlevoix Retreat – Perfect for Families and Groups!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful waterfront home on Oyster Bay! The view of Lake Charlevoix is absolutely breathtaking—whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning or enjoying a sunset in the evening, it never gets old. The location is ideal, tucked privately in Oyster Bay on Lake Charlevoix with plenty of space from neighboring properties, which made it feel peaceful and secluded. Yet it's just a short drive into downtown Charlevoix and close to all the best of Northern Michigan’s natural beauty and attractions—beaches, trails, golf courses, wineries, and more. One of the highlights of this home is the private full sand beach with zero-entry access to the Bay—perfect for kids to play safely, adults to wade in with ease and everyone to enjoy an evening bonfire. It was a big hit for everyone in our group! Inside, the house was immaculate and offered plenty of room to spread out. The central living space is open and inviting, great for gathering together after a day out, and the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need, plus a charming additional nook for casual meals or morning coffee. This place is ideal for families, guys golf trips, summer getaways, or even family reunions. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base and would absolutely stay here again!
