About this property

The Hideaway - A place to get away and be close to everything.

Welcome to the Hideaway located in Charlevoix the Beautiful in Northern Michigan. This family home is a short walk from downtown yet surrounded by nature making you feel like you are hidden away in this home away from home. The Hideaway is located one block away from the public access to Lake Michigan beach, a perfect place for an afternoon in the sun or a walk to hunt for Petoskey stones.

The Hideaway is a family-friendly property with three bedrooms including a master bedroom with a queen-size bed located on the main floor. On the second floor, the nautical bedroom has a queen-size bed; the mermaid bedroom has one queen-size bed and one full-size bed, and the sunshine alcove has a twin bed and closet.

There are two living room areas with televisions that either use Apple TV to connect to Spectrum or are smart televisions. In the large living room, you will find books, games, and some toys with which to keep your children entertained. There is a small art and craft area with paper, crayons, and paint as well as other fun items to help create family crafts.

A complete kitchen is stocked with all the necessary cooking utensils and components to prepare, cook, and serve family meals or whip up a quick snack. There are seats at the island and at the small kitchen table.

The back deck is a perfect place to sit and enjoy an outdoor meal around the round table or at the picnic table. You will also find it perfect to relax with a nice evening swing.

The side deck and water feature with waterfall and four feet deep small pond with goldfish is a perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and appetizer or sit around the bonfire pit and roast marshmallows. Please note that there is easy access to the pond and young children should be watched.

The Hideaway offers a large side yard area for you to enjoy fun outside games such as ladders, corn hole, or kickball just to name a few. There is also an adjustable basketball hoop in the driveway for a fun game of HORSE.

Really nice place to stay!
Very quick walk to the beach or you can drive it if you have a lot of gear. The parking lot was never full while we were there. Great house with lots of space and every kitchen thing you could ever possibly need to cook a meal. Welcome basket was a really nice touch. My daughters loved the bedrooms upstairs and my youngest loved the little pond. Tons of deer and squirrels in the yard, which was super interesting to our dog. We used the game table, had a bonfire, and were able to get the Michigan game on the TV. This is a very nice place to stay in Charlevoix!

Perfection
This is our 2nd year at the Hideaway. It is an ideal place for families. Some of my group had to work remotely and the space (indoors and outdoors) allows everyone to do what they need to do without interfering with anyone else. It is well-stocked and well-located for beach and walks to town.

Perfect up north house
We enjoyed our stay at the hideaway. We enjoyed the location with 5 minute walk to beach access as well as easy walk to downtown Charlevoix. The hideaway was best of both worlds, quiet and relaxed up north feel with outdoor deck and pond features, but also close to downtown. My kids enjoyed the basketball hoop, yard games, 3-1 game table, as well as all the other kid friendly features like craft table and reading nook. House layout was great for our family. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you should need. We were surprised by a wonderful welcome basket to enjoy during our stay. We e joyed our time and would definitely stay here again.
