The property is great. Large manicured lawn, long dock, sandy beach, and shallow water was perfect for children to safely play. Very convenient to have a marina close by. The house accommodated us, our children, and grandchildren very well.

Nice Boyne City Lakehouse

The house was very nice, beach was great. There was a slight issues with cleanliness at checkin, but we let Sandy know and she addressed the issues promptly. Otherwise was a great place with very convenient location for a week on Lake Charlevoix.

Great family vacation spot

This is one of only a handful of houses on Lake Charlevoix that have a beautiful sandy beach! The pristine large back yard was perfect for the kids to safely play when they weren’t in the water. There were ample tables and chairs for everyone. The great room/kitchen/dining area also very comfortable for gathering as well! Owner communication was 5 star! Thank you for sharing this special place!

Maybe the nicest house in Northern Michigan

We absolutely loved this house! Its location is perfect. Great view of the lake from the living room, ideal gathering area both inside and on the patio, nice beach area (although it was too cold to enjoy it much when we were there), walking distance to everything in Boyne City, and close drives to Petoskey, Charlevoix, and many vineyards. I wish I could live here! Thank you for sharing this wonderful home with us.

Convenient location, great stay!

We had 14 people and were cozy but comfortable. The house location is great, walk or short drive to Boyne City, short drive to Walloon Lake, and right near the main grocery store. The beds were very soft and comfortable, which is always a risk with VRBOs. We had some challenges in using the individual air units, one bedroom was very warm but the other are three were fine. Overall great home and would recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Gerlach

Host profile image
We have been enjoying hosting guests at our other summer homes for 5 years and just acquired this home in 2018. We are a family of 6 and know what it takes to have a fun safe place to bring your family. We like to accommodate large families and give them a place where they get all the fun without having to leave the property. Safety for little ones with areas to play is important.

Why they chose this property

Location is spectacular! You can't get any closer to down town Boyne City AND be on the lake. Sunset views are the best! This property has a large sandy, not rocky, beach, which is unusual for Lake Charlevoix. Boyne City is a fun town with lots of festivals, shopping and dining, all available with a short walk! Have a go on the kayaks or paddleboard provided. To be able to get the full vacation experience without having to get in your car is wonderful!
