Beautiful view & wonderful home

Perfect location & home for 6 adults. The home has everything you could need & more! Host went out of the way making sure we had everything we could need for a wonderful stay! The beds are very comfortable & the home was spotless. The location is perfect, close enough to town but also quiet & private. We all enjoyed Morning & evening walks with all the deer. We have stayed in many home rentals and this was by far the best.

Lovely stay in a lovely spot

I rented this house for my parents for a week in September. I hadn't planned on visiting but a funeral brought me to the midwest - so I came up for a few days. The house really has it all for a relaxing week on Lake Michigan. The views are spectacular. The house is incredibly comfortable. I wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy the firepit, the kayaks, the hammock and just reading on the screened in porch. It's a really great spot to hang with friends or for a family trip.

Amazing view and comfy stay

This is the second time we have rented this property. We're always so pleased with how clean everything is and our host's work to make our stay the best! Christine sent us just enough texts before our arrival to ensure things went smoothly and was available by text when we had questions. The view of Lake Michigan is out almost every window. Our favorite place was the screened-in porch. Morning coffee on the master bedroom veranda overlooking the lake can't compare to being anywhere else.

Clean & serene

We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning. The house was immaculate and well-stocked — many kitchen pans/utensils, comfortable beds/linens, and everything you might need to enjoy the outdoors. Christine, our host, was kind, accommodating, and responsive. Beautiful views of the lake in a quiet neighborhood. The wifi wasn’t super fast, and our cell signals weren’t very strong out here… but unplugging was on our agenda. We loved it! Highly recommended.

This property is amazing and exactly as described. The house was stocked with everything we needed and more. The cleanliness, décor, and panoramic views made for a perfect relaxing retreat. Though the house is very secluded, it's only a short drive to the Town of Charlevoix and Torch Lake. We highly suggest the Little Traverse Wheelway, Torch Lake Café, and Antrim Golf Course which are all nearby. We will definitely be returning next year!

Beautiful & Relaxing Lakefront getaway

Our family rented this home during COVID pandemic for a relaxing getaway. The home is not only beautiful, it was clean and supplied EVERYTHING we needed and more. We have rented several times through VRBO and this home has by far been the best!! From the cleanliness to the spaciousness for 6 people, the kayaks and all the indoor and outdoor games available, we took advantage of it all. It was quiet, we enjoyed our morning and evenings in the screened in porch, ate dinner outside and enjoyed a bonfire every night. We will definitely rent here again in the future and plan to share with anyone planning to travel to this area. Thank you to Christine, who cares for the home, for all you did, even down to fresh cut flowers.
