About this house rental

On Lake Charlevoix, close to downtown Charlevoix and Lake Michigan. 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath, spacious and airy, lakefront home that sleeps 10 adults or 6 adults and 4 kids. Hot tub overlooking lake. Paddle boards and kayaks. Perfect for kids of all ages. Fully equipped executive home. Absolutely no smokers on property, no pets, and no parties.

We would like to open our lake house for the enjoyment of other families. Our property offers the best of all locations: on Lake Charlevoix, less than 5 min drive to downtown restaurants and shopping, 3 min from milk, a couple of minutes walk to Ferry Park with a beach, basketball and volleyball and 7 min drive to Lake Michigan. Charlevoix, with an airport that can accommodate private jets, is located close to other fun towns to visit: Petoskey (20 min), Harbor Springs (40 min), Boyne City (30 min) and Traverse City with an international airport (1 hour).

For downhill skiers and snowboarders, we are located right in the middle of great Michigan skiing: 25 minutes from Boyne Mountain, and 40 minutes from Boyne Highlands and Nub's Nob.

Our house is surrounded by arborvitae which creates a screen of privacy. We have a large front and back yard, and dock. Our dock is for lake access only. A huge deck lakeside features patio seating as well as dining for 8 under an umbrella covered table and a 8 person hot tub.

Our dock is not suitable nor sturdy enough for tethering boats or jet skis, however we are only one block from Irish Boat Shop, where you can rent a boat slip for just $1.75 per foot per night.

The house is air conditioned and has a sprinkler system which comes on around 4 a.m. so don’t leave towels on the grass!

Inside, the living and bath floor areas are tiled and all bedrooms and hallways are carpeted. The floor plan is open and spacious with cathedral ceilings, with above windows and below sliders both creating light and airiness. The living room has two leather sofas with two upholstered recliner chairs with a large screen TV. There is Roku; no cable. The dining room features a long wood table that seats 10 (and 4 padded folding stools for extra seating) for memorable family dinners recounting the day's activities. There is casual dining at the granite breakfast bar.

The kitchen is completely outfitted, even with a birthday sheet cake pan. The laundry off the kitchen has a Maytag Neptune washer and dryer as well as a utility sink.

Our king beds have the best mattresses ever; you will sleep so well! First floor primary bedroom is spacious, has a walk-in closet, private bath, and glass sliders onto deck and close access to the hot tub. There is a comfortable chair in case you want to get away from the group with a good book or watch TV. Primary bathroom offers a jet tub, a shower with the best water pressure ever, private toilet closet, and a double sink vanity.

First floor guest bedroom has a king bed, ceiling fan, and large, bi-fold closet. Large, full shower bathroom is adjacent to this bedroom.

Upstairs finds another guest bedroom SOUTH with a king bed, sofa, TV, and huge walk-in attic area that has been a favorite hide-away, sleeping place for little ones. Adjacent to this bedroom is a full shower bath with long vanity.

At the other end of the upstairs hallway is the guest bedroom NORTH which offers four in twin beds which convert and can be made up to two, comfortable king beds. A private bathroom for this bedroom has a shower. There is a TV, bi-fold closet and a window air conditioner.

We have a closet full of games and puzzles, and miscellaneous craft items.

Hopefully your family can come visit and create some memories in Charlevoix!

As stated, it was a wonderful experience and I would certainly do it again. I’m assuming the plumbing is fixed.

My family and I spent a perfect Michigan summer week at this lovely home. The house is very welcoming and the owner has thought of everything to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our week. The location is great as well. Would definitely recommend!

We stayed (8 of us) at the house over New Year's 2020-21. The house is beautiful and perfect for a family vacation. The main area is open and spacious, so we could all be together, whether in the kitchen, dining area, or on the couches. The entire wall facing the water is window, so the view is fantastic, even in the winter. There is a hot tub on the deck that's great in the winter and I can imagine how much more fun it would be use the beach and the lake in the summer. The four bedrooms (three with king beds) were perfect to accommodate our group. The bedrooms are good size and there are plenty of full baths, too. We had a minor glitch, but the homeowner was on it immediately. Her quick response ensured our stay was not disrupted. It was a memorable stay that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Six ladies spent a lovely weekend there dancing, baking, drinking, playing ping pong and badminton and soaking in the hot tub. Clean, as advertised, very pleasant, kitchen was well equipped, sunrise and stargazing was gorgeous. Owner very responsive and helpful. All in all, great time. Thank you!

My wife, my 3 daughters and I rented this property as a last minute trip before the start of school, and to say it is perfect does it no justice!! The owner was one of the nicest people we’ve met and beyond accommodating!! As an example, my six year old fell in love with a bedroom the owner set up just for small children and after exchanging pix the owner bought her a Dora bedspread out of the kindness of her heart! My wife fell in love with EVERYTHING about the home and location; to the point she wanted to buy it..... this doesn’t happen in VRBO due to the fact we have pretty high standards. We will be renting this property long term next summer..... so I apologize if we take up a huge chunk of a availability but it’s not often you get the combination of such an amazing property and genuine, loving owner.

Beautiful open floor plan with lots of seating for dinner and relaxing! This home is beautifully decorated, all the furniture and bedding are super comfortable plus it has everything board games,kayaks, paddle boards,life jackets for all sizes, lots of beach towels, fire pit, well stocked kitchen with a huge refrigerator. Location is wonderful not even five minutes to town. The view from the patio and hot tub are amazing we loved sitting outside and watching the boats go by. The owner Julie was wonderful and made us feel welcomed and wanted to make sure our stay was great and it was definitely that! Cant wait to stay here again next year!
