Jacquie is a fantastic host and we had a fabulous stay in her beautiful lakefront home! Very comfortable with all the amenities! We kept our boat at our private dock and were able to enjoy Lake Charlevoix and the surrounding areas, which were new to us. Would highly recommend this property for a relaxing vacation!

Quality built and beautifully decorated home. Very practical, spacious and comfortable. This host thought of everything which gave us more time to enjoy the beauty of the lake, back patio, beachfront and boating. The dock was excellent and the no wake zone put us at ease. Gorgeous clean water and many surrounding areas to explore. We will return!
We’ve rented a lot of homes, and Jacqui)was the most responsive host I’ve ever worked with. She was super helpful and always ready with answers to my many questions.The house is more beautiful than the photos. In particular, the kitchen is more expansive, modern, and gorgeous.The rooms are so large that at first we thought one bedroom was the main bedroom, but there was an even bigger bedroom. Having an attached bathroom in every bedroom was such a luxury, and then another half bath was over the top.The home was so clean that when I lifted the couch cushions to look for lost items before we left, there were zero crumbs under them. That’s a sign of a skilled and careful cleaning staff.The kitchen was very well-appointed. Everything you might need to cook with is there. So many pans, Tupperware, utensils, plates, glasses … I could go on and on. The house has TONS of beach towels and a washer/dryer .We loved swimming off the dock and sitting in the chairs there between swimming adventures.Many seating areas, including a fire pit area, a waterfall (which we didn’t turn on) area, with more chairs. The back patio was our favorite because on hot, sunny afternoons, it was in the shade and had a beautiful view of the lake and the Ironton Ferry crossing the bay.The house is right next to the Landing, where we had drinks a few nights and ate once. It’s very crowded, so expect a wait, but they’ve got games on the lawn (like cornhole) to keep you entertained.
