About this property
Dreamy Cottage, Perfect Location to Lakes and Town! Cutest Cottage in Charlevoix
The cottage is our family's home away from home. We hope you fall in love with it as much as we have. As a family of 6 it fits us perfectly with a little room to spare. It is a special place that will call you back; you can feel the love!
We chose Charlevoix as our second home because we felt it is a perfect blend of all you could want: beauty, nature, fun, relaxation and Charlevoix is close to other destinations like Traverse City, Petoskey, Boyne City and Mackinac. From strolling the downtown shops, browsing an art fair or festival, walking to the lighthouse, taking a sunset cruise on the one of many charters, getting lost in the town's magnificent library, rock hunting, exploring the fall colors or winter sports, there is something for everyone nearby.
We have all that you need and more at the cottage, we tried to keep it as welcoming, true and authentic as a Michigan cottage could be. We have a 40" HDTV with a blu-ray DVD, Bose speakers and high speed wireless internet for those that need to stay connected. We also offer a gas Weber grill and patio set in the backyard. You get access to our paddle board. Scattered throughout is artwork produced by our daughters and art handed down from our family. We ask you to explore and also respect our home as these things are dear to us.
The house is around 1400 sq ft. There are 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. One bedroom has a new Tempurpedic mattress. The second bedroom has a new full pillow-top mattress and the third bedroom is an open loft space (no door, between the other bedrooms) with 2 comfortable bunk beds (yes suitable for adults!).

This cottage was adorable!! It had really close beach access and was an easy, enjoyable walk to town. It was a great size for our family of 5. Would definitely stay here again!
The cottage was fantastic, and the hosts were incredibly accommodating. We had a great time and really enjoyed our stay.The proximity to the big lake, downtown CVX, and all the amenities were fantastic. The neighbors were also incredibly friendly. We would definitely recommend this cottage and would happily stay again!
House was cute and clean. It was a short walk to Lake Michigan beach which we loved. The staircase leading upstairs to bedrooms did not have a rail on one side which is important to know if traveling with young kids. Check in and check out was simple. The outdoor area was great.
The cutest cottage for our Charlevoix stay! We arrived with 3 teen girls for our daughter’s sweet 16. The bunk beds were perfect for them! The house was very well stocked with everything we needed. The Kuerig and coffee pods were much appreciated!
This was our third stay at the blue cottage and we always have an incredible and relaxing experience. It feels like a home away from home with all the amenities and special touches. The location is superb too! A quaint little retreat for anyone wishing to explore in Charlevoix!

Amazing stay. Lots of coffee options available from host. Great set up for family with kids (like us). It rained in Charlevoix but it wasn’t a worry as we played games as a family.
Awesome location. Hope to return!
We loved, loved, loved the cottage! The location was perfect, close to the beach! The cottage was comfortable and cute! It was family friendly and had many conveniences to make our stay comfortable and fun!
This cozy cottage was a perfect summer escape. Tucked in a quiet neighborhood just a block from the beach and close to town, it was peaceful and convenient. The space was clean, well-stocked, and filled with charming, eclectic decor that made it feel like home.
Very cute home in a quiet neighborhood near the downtown area and very convenient. The term “cottage” is extremely accurate. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and wish we had made time to use the fire pit in the back. Lovely home.
Beautiful, comfortable, clean, close to everything, well stocked kitchen and bathrooms, wonderful and helpful hosts. Highly recommend. We will be back!
This was a cute house in a good location however we were disappointed with a few points. One of the bedroom doors did not latch/stay closed (without a door stop). Both bathroom sinks were clogged upon check-in. We were expecting 2 full baths, but there is only one full bathroom & The only shower was quite short, my husband is 6’3” and was pretty uncomfortable in there. The air worked great downstairs but we needed the plug in fans for sleeping as it was about 10 degrees warmer upstairs where the bedrooms are located. We were also disappointed in the lack of glassware and we were also expected to hand wash allOf the dishes per the checkout instructions & there was not a dishwasher.

We wish you would have messaged us during your stay, we are just a few minutes away and it would have taken a few minutes to unclog the sinks and fix the door latch. We do have central air on both floors, guests sometimes close the vents upstairs if it gets too chilly. We also have a full sets of glassware in the pullout drawers in the kitchen and another set in the pantry. Sorry that you were disappointed in not having 2 full baths. It’s listed in the description twice that our home is 1.5 baths with a shower and toilet in one bath and just a toilet in the other.
The house was very clean and had everything we needed plus more. The location was perfect for a walk into town down or to the beach. Many things to do within a short drive as well.
Just one night but appreciated the cleanliness, firepit, and a cup of coffee in the morning by the indoor fireplace.

Shawn and Jatell: We love spending time together as a family. As a family of 6 our schedules seem to be always full and overlapping. Whenever we get a chance we love being active and one of our passions is enjoying the seasons, exploring the outdoors and all Michigan has to offer. The cottage is a dream of ours and we try to spend time in Northern Michigan whenever our schedule allows us.
