Boyne Appétit can comfortably sleep eight adults—two in each bed. There is room for up to twelve, with four utilizing two luxury queen air mattresses.

When you need to spread out a bit, part of the group can enjoy hanging out in the upstairs living room while the others relax in the lower family room. Both are well-equipped with high-def LED TVs, with access to all the streaming you desire.

Sometimes, there's nothing better than sitting around a campfire with a guitar or a group gathered to sing their favorite tune while someone smashes the ivories. So you can leave your six-string at home and still enjoy a little musical fun with family and friends.

And, when the day ends, you can rest easy because we refuse to take any shortcuts when it comes to a great night's sleep! Our mattresses and linens have proven time and time again to impress even the most discerning of guests.

If Boyne Appétit is available for dates that fit your schedule, you’re going to want to get it booked right away. If there is sun in the sky or snow on the mountain, there’s a good chance we’ll book quickly. So don’t miss out on snagging this excellent value. You’re going to love your stay.

About the host

Hosted by Doug Mack

Host profile image
Hey there! I'm Doug.

I am a business strategist, investor, and mentor.

The only thing I love more than helping fellow entrepreneurs create success—is traveling with my pup Hero. Whether to the beach or the hills... on a boat or a snowmobile, if it keeps me busy and enjoying life... count me in!

After experiencing many short-term rentals during my travels, I was inspired to create incredibly memorable experiences for others by never settling for “good enough.”

With my entrepreneurial experience in perfecting processes and procedures, you can count on a five-star experience at any property we manage.

Simply put, I have always loved entertaining guests. From dinner parties to game nights, I show gratitude and admiration for others through yummy food, crafty drinks, and good times! I hope my desire to marry my love for travel with my passion for serving others shines through during your stay.

And because there is always room for improvement, I love and appreciate the gift of honest feedback. So, if you feel there is any way we can improve, please message us directly. We'd love to hear from you.

Until then… Life is short. Life is now. Travel safe. Travel often.

With gratitude.

~Doug

Why they chose this property

★ ABOUT YOUR HOST ★
Skyloft Realty is a boutique management company that has experienced five-star reviews since 2008. That’s one reason why we’re choosy about the properties we support. We hand-select owners with an “above and beyond” mindset that puts guest experience at the forefront of every decision they make. To us, that means (in part) an inviting space with all the conveniences of ‘home’ and ultra-comfortable bedding for a great night’s sleep. Before any home gets listed, we stay at least two nights in the home to get a feel for it and ensure it meets our expectations. All this to say, we are committed to remarkable guest experiences. Thank you for considering staying with us. You’re in good hands.

What makes this property unique

★ SANITIZATION ★
Let's be honest--comfort and amenities only matter when you can be confident you're staying in a clean space. This is why we created an extensive cleaning checklist where all high-touch and common-use areas are deep-cleaned and disinfected. We disinfect the carpet, couches, and other soft surfaces. And, of course, all bedding--from the mattress and pillow protectors to the comforter/duvet--gets removed and replaced with fresh, high-temperature washed, disinfected linens.

★ DOG-FRIENDLY HOME ★
Bring your fur baby along for the adventure. We allow up to two dogs under 60 lbs for a fee. Sorry, no cats, goats, miniature cows, or other animals are allowed.

★ PURPOSE DRIVEN ★
We’re committed to purpose-driven entrepreneurship. That’s why we contribute a minimum of 1% of every night we book to a carefully vetted local charity.

★ CULTURE MATTERS ★
We’re committed to building a dedicated, happy, and well-taken-care-of team. So know that at least 100% of your cleaning fee goes directly to compensate your cleaner. It’s simply the right thing to do.

★ SPECIAL NOTES ★
Garage: A fabric barrier separates the central garage area and is unavailable for guest use. We kindly ask that you respect our privacy and not attempt to pass through the fabric barrier. There are cameras monitoring (only) our private area of the garage.

Cameras: we use exterior (only) security cameras and interior smoke and noise decibel-only monitoring systems. Smoking, vaping, and parties are strictly prohibited.

Rental Agreement: All guests must sign a rental agreement within 48 hours of making their reservation. This includes a $250 fully-refundable security deposit which is only authorized and not charged to your card.
