LOCATION LOCATION !! The best view of Lake Charlevoix from the swing of this charming Cottage's porch on Front Street's 'Golden Mile' OR out the door and across the street to the Marina where you've rented a slip OR 3 blocks walk to this Premier Main Street community's small town festivities, concerts, farmer's market, restaurants OR a 4 mile drive to ski, golf or swim or waterpark at Boyne Mountain resort and spa OR a few minutes more to many quaint cities or harbor towns all the way up to just a 45 minute drive to catch the Ferry to Mackinac Island for the day!
This family cottage is complete with all the comforts and conveniences you could dream of while still packed with loads of cottage charm. The adults will find the two main floor master suites (queen beds) a nice respite after a full day of activities and the kids or an extra family will beg to return every year when they climb the winding stairway to the 3rd bedroom / sleeping loft- appropriately named the 'orphanage' with it's 1 full bed, SIX twins, and one youth / crib, the whole room painted in Boyne City FUN!
Just kick back and watch the sun sink into the lake night after night from the front porch or grill, have s'mores with the family in the private patio/garden in the fenced back yard, after a big day of anything you choose to do from snow sports to splash year-round fun in this small town, simple-life atmosphere ...have your cake AND eat it too...in this family memory making cottage on the lake!

Guestbook comments from the owner
Dear Family Cottage Owners,
We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay at your lovely cottage! In fact, none of us were ready to come home just yet! Your decorating skills are absolutely wonderful. The cottage was so charming and felt like home.
We rented a slip for our boat at The Harborage Marina and it worked out great having it accessible just across the street. Your Cottage manager was very pleasant and accommodating. Only recommendation would be to have roasting sticks for marshmallows & hotdogs for the firepit! we got creative and made some out of wire hangers - ha ha!
Thanks again for sharing your cottage. God bless!
P.S. The kids loved the orphanage and we heard lots of giggles coming from up there throughout the nights! Good times!

You won't regret this home!
From the beginning it was a pleasure to lease this home. Great communication with property manager and owner. Always responded quickly. The home itself is beautiful and comfortable. The decor is charming. High ceilings so the rooms feel very spacious. The two main floor bedrooms are very comfortable including the mattresses and bedding. Plenty of linens. The "Orphange" is decorated for every kids fantasy and sleeps a whole bunch. I think there were seven beds including a crib.
Now let's talk about the kitchen, family room and outdoor space. Great floor plan with kitchen and family room open to each other. We are a family of cooks and had great time cooking, eating and enjoying ourselves without feeling cramped. Comfy couches, well stocked kitchen and pantry. The outdoor patio with the fire pit is where we spent most of our time. The setting is very private even though it has neighbors on both sides. The landscaping is lush and colorful.
This home is walking distance to town, which has great restaurants and breweries. The front porch with swing is perfect for Lake Charlevoix sunsets.
We had a wonderful time at this BC oasis!
Had a wonderful time skiing and celebrating the New Year! Great old Boyne City home with good location to all restaurants in town and Boyne Resort.
Absolutely delightful!
Any opportunity to rent this house should be taken as fast as you can. Great location to water, restaurants, shopping, biking, hiking and on and on! Great family areas for cooking, eating, playing games, etc. Nicely furnished. You will definitely make memories!
August in Boyne City!
Our family loved staying your beautiful home. It was conveniently located to many of the sites that we visited. Also, it was nice to ride out bikes on the trails right from the driveway. Your home had every amenity to meet our needs. It is such a lovely home and great attention has been given to the decorating details. the view of the harbor was lovely and we enjoyed having our morning coffee as we looked out over the Lake Charlevoix harbor. We recommend this to other vacationers.

This property is well located near all of the fun in Boyne City. It was an easy walk into town and the house kitchen was well appointed for the nights we wanted to dine in. The backyard space is lovely with flowers and plenty of furniture. It was private and large enough for our family to enjoy. Our favorite spot was sitting on the front porch to look at Lake Charlevoix and all the boats in the marina. Sunset watching is perfect from this location. We hope to be back soon!
Summer week in Boyne City
