Very peaceful location on a quiet little lake, great for kayaking and fishing. Would be beautiful in the fall with the colors. Nice fire pit stacked with plenty of wood and seating. Only cons were the bed and furniture we're not very comfortable and the hot water is quite stinky (smells like rotten eggs). Overall was a nice stay and only a few minutes from downtown charlavoix!

What a beautiful location just a few minutes from Charlevoix! We were a little hesitant as the property had no reviews yet, but we're glad we took the chance. It was the perfect retreat while visiting the coastal towns of Lake Michigan and enjoying the autumn weather and foliage. It appears just as depicted in the photos and was clean and comfortable. We really loved having the use of the fire pit with an ample supply of firewood in the evenings, and our daughters enjoyed adventuring out into the scenic lake in the canoes and rowboat. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us!
