Charming, airy and bright 3 BR/1.5 BA cottage in Charlevoix is just a ten-minute walk from two beautiful Lake Michigan beaches – one that’s dog-friendly & one that’s great for the kids with a playground area and lighthouse. New this year - central air conditioning!! It's also just a short drive to Castle Farms (4 miles) or Jordan Valley Barn wedding venue (15 miles) if you are coming to Charlevoix to celebrate a wedding.
The first floor has an open floor plan with hardwood floors throughout, two bedrooms (1 queen, 1 full) and a full bath. Upstairs is a large, carpeted bedroom with 2 twins, bunk beds (4 beds total upstairs) and half bath. Please note: the bunks are small and only rated up to 100 lbs each and have thin, cot-type mattresses. The maximum number of adults this property can accommodate is 6. 8 guests allowed including two or more children. The layout works well for a family, group of friends, or a couple wanting a spacious getaway. Also, downstairs bedrooms have ceiling fans.
Enjoy grilling on the back deck overlooking a large backyard or walk to Lake Michigan to watch the sunsets. It's also an easy, pleasant walk to dinner, coffee, outdoor concerts, charming shops, the Thursday farmer's market and drawbridge on Bridge Street. The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of linens to make you feel right at home.
House-trained dogs are welcome with an additional fee and you will find that Charlevoix is a very pet-friendly town. Dogs are not permitted on the carpeted second floor of the home, may not be left tied out in the yard, and pet waste must be removed from the yard before checkout.
Off-season monthly rental available Nov-May at 50% off. Inquire for details.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer White, Owner
Growing up on the East Coast where a beach vacation meant fighting traffic jams, strong undertows and jellyfish, I've been delightfully surprised by the many hidden beaches and coves of Northern Michigan. There are so many places to choose from to watch the sunset, whether a quick walk down the street, sunset sail, or a remote stretch of sand all to yourself. Family and friends love visiting and taking the dogs for a swim and visiting the wonderful farm markets and galleries.
Why they chose this property
I have been vacationing in Charlevoix since 2002. I'm delighted to share my home with you and know you will love the peace, tranquility and friendliness that are part of life in this adorable town. You'll never lack for things to do, and you'll create your own adventures and memories with friends and family. Come get away from it all, bring your family, friends (and pups?) and RELAX!
What makes this property unique
You can walk everywhere - 10 minutes to the beach or the many restaurants and shops downtown. There's a wonderful library and small movie theater just down the hill for those occasional rainy afternoons. Cyclists will enjoy the trail from Charlevoix to Petoskey and beyond that runs along Lake Michigan. Personally, I just walk along the beaches for hours and let the stress of city life melt away.
