Our stay was excellent starting with a warm welcome from the owners and great communication throughout. The property was very well equipped to accommodate our large family comfortably for an entire week. The walk into downtown for restaurants and shopping as well as beaches is extremely convenient. This property is highly recommended!!

John and Jeri were fantastic hosts. Location was great! We hope to come back!

All we anticipated and more. very happy; would rent again.

Second time renting Dixon house. Another great stay. We will go back.

Renting this property was very easy. John and Jeri were very accommodating and communication was good. They allowed us to have a late check out. Very few properties will rent to us due to our cats. We will go back to Dixon House.

Defiantly we will come back.

This was our 5th trip up to Charlevoix for Apple Fest, and by far this house was the best location in terms of walkability to Downtown that we have ever had. We really appreciated this factor since we have two small children. The bedrooms were all a nice large size. The front porch was so beautiful and inviting, as well as the back patio area was very nice and a new grill was included for use at the property. The house was very spacious and had some little extras that were helpful for us, ie. pac n play, umbrella stroller, children’s books. John and Jeri we also very accommodating to us requesting an early check- in too! Thank you! They also left a beautiful welcome arrangement of chocolate bars, local MI wine, and chocolate covered cherries. Very sweet! However there were some downsides... the full size bed in the middle bedroom was very uncomfortable. My husband jokingly commented, “at one point in the night I woke up and thought about relocating to the floor because I thought it might be more comfortable.” While we certainly appreciate the charm of an old house (we had one ourselves), the creakiness of the floor upstairs proved problematic for us with 2 little children being awakened (as well as adults waking to use the restroom in the middle of the night and waking others up). Additionally, I’m not sure that a single door in the house latched properly. The cleanliness left a little to be desired, baseboard were very dusty and could have benefited greatly from some caulking and a quick paint touch up. The bathroom situation wasn’t ideal. The upstairs bathroom didn’t have a shower (only bathtub). I think we mostly found the squeaky floors and bathroom situation cumbersome because of the small children. But just something to consider for families.

The owners are very nice and communication was easy. They welcomed us with chocolate and wine, which was an unexpected treat. We enjoyed our stay in their home a lot. It is inviting, charming and comfortable. In particular the Front Porch was a big hit! The house is well equipped and has everything one would need for a much longer stay.The location of the house is perfect. The neighborhood is very nice with it's tree lined streets and sidewalks. Everyone enjoyed the walks including our dogs. A big plus was also the short walk to downtown Charlevoix. No car needed. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Location is great , can walk to downtown, sitting on the front porch is great, the use of outside grill was great, but if you need two complete bathrooms the one upstairs is a tub , no way to take a shower, that was the only drawback.
