Summary: This was a great place to gather and launch local site seeing. Twelve of us traveled from New Mexico to see and experience northern Michigan with it forests, beaches, and waterways. Great to all gather at one house to share our experiences of the local area and towns. Host was very accommodating and helpful.
Shannon C. Sep 7, 2023 02:11:53 AM
Summary: The property and location exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for our extended family gathering that included kids as young as three and adults nearly 70. Lake Charlevoix is absolutely beautiful and so close to the home. Additionally, Lake Michigan beaches are about a 15 minute drive while Boyne City and Charlevoix are also very close.
Heather M. Sep 3, 2023 04:26:01 AM
Summary: Had a great time getting all the siblings, grandparents and young cousins together. Favorite space is the screened in porch. Plenty of room for our family of 11. Lake is beautiful, short walk to the private beach. Dads pontoon was able to pull right up to the dock from another local dock. If the weather had been better would have spent many days down at the beach area. Great distance from lots to do- Boyne city, Charlevoix, ORV riding trails, golfing, parks, wineries. Favorite spot was Gypsy Distillery, farmers market, tacos and tequila for quick lunch, and kids park next to marina in Boyne City.
