Our 5-STAR RATINGS and amazing guest comments speak for themselves:
" 5/5 SUMMER STAY: The house was really remarkable and the location is perfect. It's a block or two away from the downtown area and a block or two away from the lake. And yet, never felt busy. It was actually a really peaceful place within walking distance to everything (even Avalanche overlook!). The whole process of dealing with Michele and Chris was great as well. I would highly recommend this house for a great family and/or friends getaway!!"
"5/5 Great location. FANTASTIC PROPERTY!"
"5/5 Fantastic Hosts: CANNOT SAY ENOUGH about how nice these hosts are, how CLEAN the house is, how CONVENIENT the location is, and the overall experience was PERFECT. They had bottled water waiting in the fridge for us. They had fresh bananas on the countertop. The towels, sheets, pillows and blankets were all clean and soft. Just an overall excellent EXCELLENT experience!"
"5/5 Host was absolutely amazing and helpful, and I literally have no complaints at all. I would definitely recommend."
"5/5 Loved being so close to downtown Boyne City. Hosts were AMAZING! First time up north and it was fabulous. HOUSE IS BEAUTIFUL." __________________

This was a great house that had all the things needed for a comfortable stay. It was very close to a large grocery store and downtown. It was also very convenient to go back and forth to Boyne Mountain during our stay. The host is also super communicative and accessible.
The house and property were incredibly clean and the hosts were friendly and responsive. The location was great. 10 minute drive to Boyne Mountain and 1-2 block walk to the little downtown for coffee or restaurants. The only suggestion I have is that some hooks for coats etc would be helpful. Thanks for a great family weekend!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We really appreciate that you left the house is such perfect condition! You are welcome anytime. P.S. Thank you also for the recommendation. We did have a wall-mounted coat rack in the back laundry space, however the guests prior to your stay pulled it out - yikes...we're working on more securely attaching, so it will be ready for your next stay :-)
We planned a short little ski trip at Boyne Mountain. The house was very close to the location! The house was cozy and clean :) We had a very great little getaway! Would recommend! Owners were very friendly and so accommodating! Awesome stay! Tonya Allen

Thank you so much for such a nice review! We love that you liked our house and invite you to come back anytime!
This VRBO was exceptionally clean and spacious for our family. The kitchen was huge and had all the amenities needed. Washer and dryer were a great plus. The neighborhood felt safe and we had timely snow removal. Super close to downtown, the ski hill, and to good restaurants. Would recommend to others!
Seamless communication and logistics. House was spacious, clean, and kitchen was well-appointed. The only suggestion would be to soften the interior lights for a cozier feel. Location was amazing, just two blocks from the main drag of Boyne City and an easy drive to Boyne Mountain for skiing.

Thank you so much for your great review and feedback. We like your suggestion and plan to look at dimmer options for the pendants and recessed lights. We hope to have you as a guest again!
House was very nice and very clean. Great location for water and downtown. We had a great stay at this location and would certainly come back again. Kitchen was beautiful.
Freshly updated and only a 2 block walk to town. It was nice to park for the weekend and be able to walk to the lake, shopping, restaurants and water sports rentals. Had a great time.

Wonderful house and location! Beautiful layout and super clean. All communication with Michele was great. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had.
Nice location, close to downtown Boyne, the home was clean, appreciate the 2 full baths. Only issue is i messaged the owners right after i booked, they didnt respond, I don't know if they check their Inbox, wished communication would've been better.
This is the perfect home to stay in if you're interested in being just a block from downtown and able to head out on a walk right from the front door. The home was beautiful and perfectly held our family.
