Perfect Lake Michigan getaway

Our family had the most wonderful week at this lovely home. It was so well equipped with everything we needed to feel comfortable and at home. The property owner is so helpful and accommodating. The sunsets were breathtaking and wildlife sightings- a friendly fox and a majestic bald eagle- made our stay extra special!

Fantastic spot to vacation

Our group was really impressed with the home and the scenic layout of the property. This place has some of the best panoramic views of Lake Michigan sunsets! The location makes for quiet evenings on the lake sitting in front of the camp fire, yet close enough for shopping and golf in the Charlevoix area. The property manager Jennifer was very easy to get in touch with and responded to questions quickly. Highly recommended place to vacation!

Couples getaway

Beautiful home. Impeccably maintained inside and out with beautiful gardens and a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan. The only downside was that there is no air conditioning. Luckily the 2nd couple had the option to move to one of the first floor bedrooms on the few days that temps rose above 90 degrees. But had we been at capacity that would not have been an option. Even the main floor was a bit uncomfortable during the hotter time of day on those unseasonably hot days. It would be helpful for this to be obvious in the listing notes as we never considered there wouldn’t be ac for a rental at this price. If portable ac units were added we would definitely stay here again.

The phrase I would use to describe everything about this place is “High Quality”. The view of the lake is spectacular….. movie worthy. The room is impressive. Enough room to truly enjoy your stay. Perfect size bathroom and kitchenette. All amenities, from the cable/internet, to the soaps and coffee, are all high quality. It’s private and the parking couldn’t get any better. Truly a 5 star experience.

What a great find!

I can’t say enough positive things about Jennifers beautiful room. You can’t go wrong staying here. It was very private, the view was stunning, and the room was perfect for our needs. It was clean, tastefully decorated, spacious, modern, and had so many extra touches to make our stay comfortable. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in! Jennifer provided great communication and was an excellent host. We look forward to many return visits!
