Step off of the small shoreline with natural ‘rock seating’ and Petoskey stones and head upstairs into this beautifully designed custom timber house with high vaulted ceilings, hardwood flooring throughout, and a geothermal heating and cooling system. The spacious and open living room features a large sectional couch, a recliner, electric fireplace, and plenty of windows providing ample natural light and views of Lake Michigan and the Leelanau Peninsula.

Off the living room sits a large, fully equipped kitchen with plenty of counter space, bar seating, and a polished-stone topped kitchen island. The room includes a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, microwave, and an automatic dishwasher.

The adjacent dining area features a large table set for 8, and is situated next to a huge window, from which you can enjoy stunning lake views.

Head down to the basement to find a game room, which includes a full-sized pool table, and foosball table. There is also a large, plush couch in the space, perfect for relaxing between some spirited games.

When you’re ready for some fresh air, head to one of the house’s spacious decks that comes thoughtfully complete with a porch swing, a charcoal grill/smoker, and table seating. There is also easy access to the lake and a lush yard, perfect for outdoor activities or a campfire overlooking the lake.

-- THE LOCATION --

Step into the beauty of Lake Michigan from this beautiful house, located just 15 minutes from the heart of Charlevoix. Just a 1/2 mile away, you’ll find Fisherman’s Island State Park with sprawling white sand beaches for launching kayaks or strolling down miles of beach.

Great location
The house is very nice and the location is awesome. The house overlooks the lake and there was a wonderful breeze almost all of the time. You can open all the windows and listen to the waves and the rustling of the trees. The neighborhood is friendly and quiet. There is a terrific beach which is just a half mile down the road, and there were very few people at the beach -- no crowds. We also drove into Charlevoix and walked around and that was fun too.

Charlevoix stay
Had a great time in Charlevoix. This house is a nice location if you’re looking to do both Charlevoix and Traverse City. There is no beach at the moment due to high lake levels but there is a nice local beach that is walking distance. The hosts were very accommodating! I highly recommend especially if you have a larger group.

Great home base for exploring Northern Michigan.
This was a magnificent, fully equipped home in which we fell in love on first visit with Northern Michigan. We loved starting and ending our days overlooking and listening to the lake from the deck, and appreciated having the use of a pair of kayaks to get out on the water as well. Given its central location we took easy day trips to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes, Torch Lake, Charlevoix, and Mackinac Island, but also spent a great day on the local beach which was in walking distance just down the road and along which it seemed one could walk forever. At night, we enjoyed playing pool in the downstairs game room, gathering in the great room, and playing cards around a table big enough for all of us. Can't wait to come back.

Great Summer Getaway with Beach Access
Despite having poor weather during our stay, we enjoyed the house and the small beach. During a break in the rain we used the kayaks and SUP - it was great having private beach access. The house was spacious and clean, and had plenty of room for a multi-generational family. Loved the large dining table and the kitchen was well stocked. The kids enjoyed the pool table and foosball in the basement. But for me, the best part was the view of the sunset over the lake from the couch!

Family Getaway
We had a great stay! It was a perfect get away with my parents and best friend and their baby. It was so cold that weekend, but the cozy fire place and large living area made it perfect for wine and board games! We had a blast. The only down fall was we couldn’t get the internet to connect for the tv. But, we ended up figuring it out after talking with the hosts in time for the football game! Great stay. Will be back!
