Home pictures are accurate. "Newly renovated" is not accurate but the home is quite nice. Sufficient bathrooms and every thing worked. Water front property is exactly as pictures show. Docking facility for our boat was wonderful. Great facility and ample parking for our vehicles. Weather was not the best during our stay but I'm sure it would be even more pleasant with great weather.

Highest Praise for this Property AND Owner
We've been staying at the same place for 7 years and this year decided to venture out. I was very apprehensive yet it turned out to be amazing. This house is perfect for kids, adults and older folks. Much of our worry was re: not having a beach for the kiddos (3,6 and 9) yet it was--in many ways--a non-issue. The dock is beautiful, safe and gave them a place to jump into appropriate depths with supervision seating right there. Kids had a blast (note: they are good swimmers). The house is ideal for a larger group (we had 11) with three beds on lower level, each slightly small but nothing more is needed on vacation than a place to sleep! The bunk room is ideal. Main floor master and bath are good, comfy. Upstairs gave a single adult privacy and his own space. Everything you might need is included. Appliances newer, storage for food in kitchen and clothing in bedrooms is excellent. Extremely clean, tidy and welcoming upon entering. We were very, very happy here and trust me--you will be, too! Highest recommendation for comfort, ease of use and responsiveness of owners. Not a 'show place' but just what we wanted--a home. Thank you for a lovely vacation experience.

Big family fun
Our entire family from all over the country spends 1 week in Charlevoix every year and have stayed in many different places. This house met our needs almost to perfection. Plenty of room and situated on a perfect spot on the lake. Everyone from 2 to 87 were comfortable and our vacation was almost perfect. We're hoping to return annually. The host was available and went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Thanks David and Laurie.

Great spot for a family lake vacation
This was a great property to enjoy with our big family over the 4th of July. Plenty of sleeping space, a well working air conditioner, beautiful views, and a great yard. David was very communicative leading up to our stay and responded quickly when we had questions while visiting. We definitely recommend you take a nice relaxing vacation at this charming house on the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix.
