We stayed at Lauren’s place when we attended a wedding at the Boathouse. Great location with a beautiful view off the balcony. Squeaky clean, large and comfortable space, with helpful amenities. Good proactive communication as the stairs were under repair (elevator worked just fine). Definitely recommend!

This condo is great. For our family, this is a perfect location to go to all the places we want to visit or “veg”. The property is very clean and contains everything you need for a stay. Our grand kids enjoyed the little beach and the water mat. They thoroughly enjoyed the bunk beds. We would recommend this location for any family. Thank you.

Beautiful home, great location very clean. We would definitely come back again. We love Michigan.

Additionally, the owners were very helpful in providing information when assistance was needed. Thank you, again. Rick. & Leisa

Perfect spot for family

This is our third time in this condo location and 2nd time in this specific condo. It’s always perfect. The 3 bedroom condo is roomy and has enough space for my family of 5. We always get groceries from family fare which is a few minutes down the road and stock the fridge but it was nice to see that we didn’t need to get condiments (ketchup, mustard and Mayo bc they had it in the fridge for us). The rooms were great and they had enough towels and blankets. My kids loved the bunk beds and spending the day playing in the lake out back. I used the kayak provided and had a peaceful time alone while my husband watched the kids. It was delightful. We rented boats and jet skis from summertime rentals on two different days for some adventure. Summertime rentals is just few minutes down the road. We enjoyed downtown Charlevoix (about 15 mins from the condo) for the Venetian festival and took a day trip to Mackinac Island (1.5 hour). We met their neighbors who were kind and wonderful. It was a relaxing stay and we feel so lucky to be there and plan on coming back.

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. It was very clean and quiet. It’s conveniently located to shopping and restaurants within a half hour and more major cities within an hour. There are two rental places on the same street if you want to rent kayaks, jet, skis, etc. The house was very quick with communications and answered any questions we had. We would definitely recommend this place!

Everything I’ve ever hoped for

Before we arrived we had the best communication with the owner. She was even concerned about our travel day, and gave us the option to call her if we had issues even though we were arriving at 2am. I cannot say enough about her communication and courtesy. The property it’s self was impeccable. Super clean and hospitable. We had all the comforts of home plus…they had beach chairs and towels as well as a cooler and a kayak. THEY THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING! The location was peaceful and so quiet yet we never felt out of place with our family. The views of the lake off the balcony were incredible. We enjoyed our coffee outside every morning! We cannot wait to travel here again and enjoy this awesome place.

About the host

Hosted by Lauren VanderMolen

Host profile image
We are a young family with 3 fast moving and fast growing kids! We love to have a place in Northern Michigan to escape the daily requirements at home and to enjoy even more of our beautiful state together. We often use our place as an adventure jumping ground for boating, hiking, swimming, visiting breweries, skiing, rock hounding, snowshoeing, tubing, etc.
We love hearing how our guests enjoyed the area as well and look forward to hosting you!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the area and all of the beautiful sights after many visits to Northern Michigan over the years. East Jordan is especially our favorite because it is a quiet town with central access to all of our favorite destinations. It is so easy to unwind here.

What makes this property unique

We love boating and this location has easy access to a boat launch around the corner and the ability to explore for hours. We also like the winter activities of skiing, snowmobiling, ice skating, and sledding and we can do all of these from East Jordan.
East Jordan is a quiet town with easy access to multiple vacation destination towns without the crowds at the end of the day.
