Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1999
My husband and I and our three daughters have spent many special times at this cottage. We have always been skiers and our girls have developed into serious ski racers. We now spend every weekend here during the ski season and ski at Boyne Mountain when we are not traveling to nearby ski resorts for scheduled races.
Why the Owner Chose Boyne City
We have always loved the close knit community and laid back character of Boyne City. The people are real and the town takes you back to a simpler time when family spent meals and evenings together enjoying one anothers company. We first owned a smaller cottage directly across the street and purchased this one when our family got too big for the one bathroom and two burner stove. We have loved having the two living spaces for friends and family. Everyone is comfortable because they have their own space and conveniences.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
We have spent nearly every New Year's Eve at this cottage creating memories that will last forever. We live on Lake Erie in Ontario in the summer and are not able to enjoy Boyne City in the summer at it's best. That's why we are happy to share this special home with others who will hopefully fall in love with Boyne City like we have and want to return year after year to continue cherished family ties at a slower pace.

Beautuful house in a great location

A beautiful house in a beautiful location – a wonderful place to stay for a variety of activities. We were there to (road) bike some hills and were able to just jump on our bikes and get started. It is also a quick and convenient walk into town or the park by the lake. Afterward we found the house a very pleasant place to sit around and talk about our experiences of the day. The upstairs living room has a cathedral ceiling and a wall of windows looking out onto a pleasant tree lined street, making it very inviting. But – we found ourselves sitting around the big table off the kitchen, drinking coffee / tea and talking. Our only regret is that with all the activities to do in the area, we did not have much time to spend in such a beautiful house.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Our family (4 extended families) enjoyed this spacious and comfortable home. It was great to have two living areas so some of us could watch tv in one living room while others visited in another room. The first floor kitchen was great for hanging out while preparing meals. Our family LOVED being close to town so we could walk to the park, etc. We also enjoyed the ping pong table in the basement. This rental is quite beautiful and comfortable and great for a large family or families.
Recommended for:Tourists without a car, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.
