Or just spend the day on the lake, kayaking, spotting bald eagles, and more! Amazing sunsets will cap off your perfect lake day.

In winter, we are 30 minutes from Boyne Highlands, Nubs Nob, and Boyne Mountain. Cozy apres ski feel with the fireplace on and snow falling outside!

Beautiful property and comfortable home with good amenities for family and friends to gather. Great outdoor patio and fire pit area with beautiful view of the lake. Nice walkable rocky beach area (mid section is a bit unstable for those with poor balance). Some steep steps (12) down to platform then another section of flatter steps (10) to beach but manageable. We enjoyed a lot of time on the beach rock hunting and in the water with the provided kayaks. Some downstairs areas could use a little more TLC and are a little “tired” and could use some sprucing up - paint and deep cleaning. Overall a very nice and private setting! Definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

A great family get-a-way with just about everything you can imagine you would need while staying. From beach chairs to kayaks, outdoor dining to comfy beds, entertainment like games, books, tv/streaming, stereo. Communication about directions and check in made it easy to find and access the house. While the kitchen was stocked with all the necessities for cooking and cleaning I would love to see it when it is updated to reflect the beauty of the rest of the house. Having said that I would highly recommend this vacation home for large families and groups. A beautiful setting at the end of a cul de sak surrounded by woods and of course the gorgeous view of the lake.

A little bit rustic, A little bit refined, and a whole lot of beautiful.

Our family really enjoyed our stay. The location is quiet and serene, the house is very accommodating. It has the exact feel that an up north rental should. Owners were so easy to work with, and check in/out was simple.

Lovely views

Property had lovely views but had no idea about the midge flies. Wouldn’t recommend booking this time of year. Location was nice in between Petoskey and Charlevoix, owner was very quick to respond and had great communication. Unfortunately the home wasn’t as clean as you would anticipate when booking, but vacuum and cleaning supplies were easily accessible.

The house location was perfect! Access to the property was very easy with the lockbox. Communication with the owner was good. Wished he would have answered my question about the fireplace. We turned on the switch to the right of the unit, but nothing happened. Asked what else we needed to do, but no answer. Was also hoping the house would be a little cleaner (Cobwebs in light fixtures, sticky dining table, etc.). Overall a good stay, but we were expecting a little more cleanliness.

Great location on the lake

Beautiful lake property situated between Petoskey and Charlevoix. We enjoyed the access to the trail for walking and riding bikes…the house was very comfortable and clean. The outdoor space was pure Michigan…the deck, fire pit and the beautiful shoreline…thank you for a great weekend stay!

A gem of a house

Lovely house in a GREAT location. Rooms are spacious, lots of amenities. We loved the fire pit and experienced the best sunset I’ve ever seen across the bay. We found handfuls of Petoskey stones. Close to both Charlevoix and Petoskey, and close to lots of great golf. Hope to be back next year!

Wedding Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at the house! We were with three couples and there was plenty of room for all of us. There were kayaks and bikes to use and plenty of room to play games and enjoy time together. We also appreciated the firewood so that we could enjoy a campfire. The location was wonderful on the lake. It's close to Petoskey and Charlevoix so a lot to see and do. We certainly enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful Gathering

Amazing and comfortable place to reconnect with old friends we hadn't seen in many years. It provided the perfect quiet place at "the end of the road" situated in the cool woods yet on the shore to watch sunsets, stars at night and just listen to the waves together. The home provided wonderful places to sit for meals and around a camp fire for smores. An older property but adequately maintained, lots of kitchen gear and comfortable beds for restful sleep. Great memories made here.

Great Family Getaway!

I can't express enough how grateful I am for this family opening up their piece of paradise with all of us! We made so many amazing memories here. The house is big, beautiful and very comfortable with all the amenities you need to enjoy! The veiw from the master bedroom is breath taking. Waking up hearing the waves and opening up my eyes to beautiful Lake Michigan first thing in the morning was my favorite part of our stay. My family didn't want to leave and are already asking if we can go back next year. ❤️

family vacation

My husband, our two children and 4 grandchildren stayed at this property in Bay Shore between Charlevois and Petoskey. We had plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed the house, the location and many of the included ameneties: kayaks and bicycles. We did not have warm weather during our stay, so I cannot comment on swimming at this location. However, we did go down to the lake and collect rocks (many Petoskey stones) and kayak. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Another Lovely Stay

We rented this same property last year and were highly pleased with it. This year we rented for longer, and were very happy again. The house is spacious and conveniently arranged, with a lovely view through the trees to the lake. There is plenty of deck space and tables/chairs for outdoor eating, as well as a firepit for marshmallow toasting. The kitchen is well equipped, the wifi works great, and there are kayaks, canoe, bikes, etc. as well as a woodland path that starts behind the house, and the Petoskey-to-Charlevoix bike path at the end of the street. The owner's information about the cottage and the area is comprehensive and accurate. We had Another Lovely Stay!

Why they chose this property

Our parents were teachers and coaches in Northern Michigan. They met at Boyne Mountain, while both were living in the Detroit area, and eventually moved north. After retiring, they realized their dream of living on the lake by building this house.
While my sisters and I all had lives that took us away from the area, our families love coming back whenever we can, and our kids have fallen in love with the region.
We are offering the home as a vacation rental to share the magic of northen Michigan with others who appreciate the beauty and the lifestyle that shaped our family's lives.
