About this property

Come and enjoy our true up north lake house. The lake house is nestled in the woods with a private walking path to beautiful Lake Charlevoix. You can spend your morning enjoying natures gifts and afternoons sitting on the dock watching sail boats go by. Make memories around the campfire roasting marshmallows over the large fire pit, firewood provided. The cabin is just minutes from the downtime life of Boyne City and the Ironton Ferry is located a few miles down the road. This true up north retreat is a year around vacation. Take advantage of Michigan's fall beauty or enjoy your days cross country skiing. This home is located 10-15 minutes from Boyne Mountain.

The cottage is completely furnished including linens and towels for all five bedrooms and three and a half baths. The kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and a double wall oven. Or if you'd prefer to cook outside, fire up the oversized gas grill on the attached front porch.

Another great time!

This is the second year in a row that we rented this cabin and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay again. The weather was not cooperative, so we spent more time inside the cabin and we had planned, but given how ring me it is, it was just fine. I appreciate if they got the swim pad because that was a lot of fun for the kids this year. Rented kayaks down in Boyne and so we had those for most of our stay which was fun. Highly recommend this cabin, it is a great location and very clear. As I said, in my other review, it’s not necessarily the fanciest of cabins but it’s really clean and has lots of room and great views and is on great property. The owner is really responsive and nice. As is the property manager.

Perfect Location & Waterfront Access

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with family and friends at this unique cottage. The layout allowed our group of 9 (4 adults & 5 kids) to spread out while still having a main common area to play games at night. Smores at the awesome fire pit were a hit. But the highlight is the private beach area and easy water access. We even snuck across the street for a round of 9 holes of golf a couple of times. We would definitely stay here again if we are back in the area!

Perfect balance of woods and city

We rent up in the Petoskey/ Charlevoix/ Harbor Springs area each summer so we have a lot of experience with different rental properties. This one was really great, particularly the location. It definitely has a great ‘cabin on the lake in the woods’ feel but is only about a 5 minute drive to downtown Boyne. In addition, the main ‘pros’ that stood out to us include: perfectly clear water for swimming (some rocks in the first few feet but no muck, no vegetation); two ‘sitting areas’ outside (one campfire area closer to the cabin and a second on a nice wood ‘deck/platform’ at the shore); things seemed ‘clean’…not necessarily new or super fancy but clean in a way a lot of rentals aren’t); quiet surroundings (no noise from neighboring properties); and as another reviewer noted…there is plenty of space to accommodate people who may not always want to be on top of each other. Only a few small ‘cons’ (if you can call them that): the spiral staircase felt more ‘death-defying’ than I imagined….likely just me, and it DID dissipate a bit with time, but I found them a little dicey to manage; small kitchen (as others already noted) but that was ok for us; no ‘yard’ (grassy area to set up badminton or volleyball, etc); no water crafts / toy type stuff (which may have been in the description and we just missed it). Overall, we had a fantastic time and will likely rent again next summer!! Owner and property manager were both friendly and responsive. We bought a new butcher block knife set as our ‘thank you / hostess gift’ so for anyone who rents this cabin in the future, rest assured there is a nice set of knives (a personal ‘must have’ for us :)).
