Architect and dreamer Earl Young created a magical world with his unique and eccentric stone cottages in Charlevoix. Half House is absolutely one of the most adorable homes you will ever see!

Half House is an easy two block stroll to the quaint village of Charlevoix for shopping, dining, marina, ferry, drawbridge and music in the park.

Everything you will need for a comfortable vacation is included: luxurious cotton bed linens and towels, firewood and kindling, free wireless internet, books, music, Roku smart flatscreen TV with streaming channels and DVD player, kitchenware, beach chairs, plus an endless supply of hot water!

This unit is best suited for those under 5'-10". The ceilings are 7' and doorways between rooms about 72". It's as quaint and cozy as it gets. Comfortable bed, cozy living room, tiny kitchen and no dining area (TV trays in the closet). With all its shortcomings we loved it!

We had such an incredible stay at the Half House -- it couldn't have been better! Bill was an excellent host, both with communication beforehand and with the amenities and condition of the property. The house itself is so charming and well catered for. We were two adults and one young child, and the set-up was perfect. We were able to sit outside one evening with warm temperatures and have a wonderfully cosy the next chillier night. The amenities were spot on and we didn't even use everything on offer, as everything and more was catered for. I would highly recommend this charming house for a wonderful getaway.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brief two night stay. Property was clean, considerately stocked with everything a family might need… bandaids, Benadryl, toms of pots and pans, various kitchen appliances, beach towels, lifejackets, coolers, etc. It was very clear that this host had thought long and hard about what was needed to make his guests feel welcomed and comfortable. This is obviously an incredibly unique home, location was ideal, close walking distance to the beach and downtown. Felt like a celebrity with so many people stopping by to view the home… but everyone was respectful of the property and our privacy. Five stars, thanks so much Bill!

The half house has always been a place l have wanted to stay since I was a kid. We have rented a few of the Earl Young houses on Park Avenue. The location of this one with the view and the charm offered a magical week in Charlevoix the beautiful, we had a full range of weather, allowing us to enjoy some cozy fires in the fireplace. With John Cross fish nearby, Thursdays farmers market downtown, That French place, and Hardwood, we had some incredible meals. So many fabulous walks from this great location, Beautiful sunsets and amazing swims down at the beach. There is always the flow of mushroom house tours, though this does not bother me as I understand the charm and interest in these magnificent structures. This tiny quaint little gem of a cottage had all the amenities and we had a divine time with our stay. Thank you.

We loved the house nice and cozy. Not far from beach or downtown. House was exactly like the host said. No surprises when we arrived. Hattie & Buz
