Location, Location, Vacation!

This was such a great spot, and the house had everything we needed to just enjoy ourselves no thinking required! It's a great quiet setting on the lake and you feel like you're in the middle of nowhere, but you're just minutes from everywhere you want to go! We absolutely loved it, and we will be back for another stay, hopefully next year!

It was such a nice location. We were able to just enjoy ourselves. Communication was wonderful and it was so awesome to wake up to beautiful birds. My little one is 2 months and smiled so much hearing the birds.

The best part about this was being on a small lake and having a canoe and kayaks to use free of charge. The house is small. It’s pretty convenient to get to. Wasn’t quite as clean as I would have hoped ( just things like windowsills) but they had everything you need. In addition to two bedrooms upstairs there are two futon couches downstairs. Plus a laundry room and 1/2 bathroom downstairs in addition to a full bathroom upstairs.

A nice house on the lake

We stayed for a week in the summer. This property had everything that we wanted in a vacation house: lakeside w nice view, grill, boats, TV, wifi. It was only two of us + dogs so there was more than enough space for us. Getting in the house was easy. The property manager was also very friendly and helpful when we needed assistance. The property is right on the lake as the pictures indicated and is definitely the best feature of the house. The lake is peaceful and quiet. We had a great time boating around it with our dogs. The only thing I noticed that could be improved is that we encountered a few spiders in the house. There are some spots on the lower level in the corners that could have been cleaned a little better. Overall though it was a very minor issue. We would happily stay here again!

Cute cottage on inland lake for 2 night stay

Easy 10 min drive from Charlevoix. Quiet, peaceful backyard & deck overlooking East End Lake. Enjoyed the firepit & fluffy towels. Kitchen was well-stocked. 2 Beds in 2 bdrms upstairs were very comfortable. Only negatives were Paddle boat was broken, gaming system not set-up in bsmt, & swimming is not allowed in lake. Not sure why? Water too deep, bottom too mucky, leeches? We took the kids to a great beach in Charlevoix though, after the mushroom house tour (worth the $) & had a great day exploring the town & looking for Petoskey stones. Beautiful library & art gallery. Wanted to use the several kayaks & nice new life jackets, but it stormed hard & had to spend the 2nd night inside. Heard a loon early in the morning. Dog friendly. Nice yard, but hilly in back, so our elderly person with a balance issue couldn't access the backyard due to the terrain. He enjoyed the good TV reception! Many steep stairs to bsmt, but lots of room, laundry, & half bath downstairs with a door to lower patio. Quiet neighbors on either side & trees give lots of privacy. Loved the bird feeders on the top deck!
