The Boyne City home on Lake Charlevoix was wonderful. It was beautifully decorated, comfortable and had a well stocked kitchen. We loved the Florida room that led out to the patio. It was our favorite room with windows and sliding doors with views of the lake. Check in was easy and there was a local contact to assist with any needs or questions. We rented a boat and loved having access to the lake. We will definitely come back.

We had a great stay! The house is very clean, comfortable and nicely updated. The 3 seasons room is a great spot to take in the view of Lake Charlevoix and the large living area with a huge, comfortable couch and big screen tv is a great spot to relax or watch a movie during a rainy day. We had 2 families (4 kids ages 4-10, 4 adults) and it worked out really well. The large lawn was great for yard games and having a dock to jump off every morning, noon and night was everyone's favorite. It is an excellent location that feels secluded, yet close to everything. There is a small general store across the street for any last minute needs. The kids had so much fun playing in the creek behind the house. We especially enjoyed the neighbor, Tom. He is a great guy! Tony was quick to respond to any issues and Sam the property manager responds immediately. The coffee pot went out on us during our stay and Sam was there within 45 minutes to give us a new one. Highly recommend this house!

Great location with view of the lake and the creek right next to the house in the back. Beautiful. Tony was very responsive when we arrived and there was no heat. Got fixed quickly and we enjoyed our three days.The only reason I didn’t rate a five was due to not being able to reach the host to figure out how to get network channels to watch the game.Great property. Would recommend!
Beautiful creek right outside the back door!

February Ski Trip with teens

What a great place and exactly as listed. It was 15 minutes from Boyne Mountain and 7 minutes to the cute Boyne City area with grocery and restaurants nearby. The property manager was very easy to contact, checkin was a breeze. Highly recommend this property. We had 2 adults and 7 teens and the space was perfect for us.

Great cabin on the lake!

Cute, well-maintained cabin on the lake with a wonderful creek running through the backyard. This home had everything we needed for a relaxing 3-day family getaway. Kitchen was fully outfitted, beds were comfy, and the house was clean. Excellent location and friendly neighbors. Short drive into town with easy access to restaurants, groceries, etc. What’s not to like?!

Awesome Boyne City Cottage!

The house was perfect for our family's first time in northern Michigan. It is well stocked with everything you could need for cooking, hanging out (we especially loved the karaoke machine and the two fire pits!), and enjoying the lake. It's tucked into a quiet neighborhood off of the main road with friendly neighbors. Our dogs loved running in the large lawn that extends to the lake! Thank you for an awesome stay!

We wanted to celebrate our daughter’s engagement with the family over the 4th of July holiday. This was a perfect spot and the cottage was comfortable, clean, full of everything we could need for our family celebration. We enjoyed dining outside and the beautiful views of Lake Charlevoix. The park-like setting was perfect for outdoor activities. Everyone loved the accommodations and the location. We will be back!

It was exactly as described in the listing! we had an amazing time with our family and friends celebrating Christmas and New Year! The cabin was very cozy, and clean with a perfect location. The nice kitchen, bedrooms, closets, and other spaces were perfect! There was so much to do, even when it rained. We feel welcome and hopefully will back on summer;)
