About this property

Relaxing, peaceful, 2-bedroom home for up to 4 adults or family with children.

Private, stand-alone cabin in the woods on a quiet paved road, Perfect place for a family with children or four adults. City of Charlevoix and Lakes Michigan and Charlevoix are five minutes away. Castle Farms is less than a mile away, check out their events calendar online.

If you like to occasionally fish, walk across the street to Adams Lake and throw a line in. The Pier in downtown Charlevoix is another popular place with easy access. There are also charter fishing boats to get you out on the "big" lake" or Lake Charlevoix. Lots of rentals in the area for any type of watercraft from canoe to pontoon,

The Charlevoix area has many opportunities for day hikers or beach goers. The Mt. McSauba recreational area is approximately 4 miles from the cabin with mountain biking, hiking, disc golf and beautiful beaches and sunsets over Lake Michigan. Fisherman's Island State Park is three miles away on the shores of Lake Michigan with beautiful trails and dunes. Both are great areas for Petoskey stone hunting! We are located close to natural areas and conservancies if you like birding.

Stroll through downtown Charlevoix while enjoying a local treat from an ice cream shop. There are many casual or fine dining restaurants within the downtown area. Check out the Charlevoix schedule for summer festivals and free concerts! Take a "Mushroom House" tour to view the iconic Earl Young homes in the area. The Charlevoix library is a special place with activities for all ages. Enjoy the views of the harbor from a bench in the park or walk the pier to Charlevoix's historical lighthouse as the bridge opens for boat traffic.

Bring your bikes! The cabin is on a popular biking route. If you like a longer ride, there are "rail to trail" systems all the way to Mackinaw.

Shopping and golf for everyone!

A walk out the back door you will find a Maple Woods with an outdoor fire pit and grill. An indoor gas fireplace adds warmth to living space. Petoskey, Boyne City and Harbor Springs are 30 minutes away. Traverse City, Sleeping Bear dunes National Park and Mackinaw are close enough for a day trip.

At the end of your day, you will be coming back to your own private space where you can start a bonfire or sit on the front porch with your favorite beverage and watch the sun go down beyond the woods. When you wake, take your coffee to the porch, listen to the birds and watch the sun rise....

About the host

Hosted by Lilly

Host profile image
Our Cabin - “The Shed" sits on property that has been in our family for over 100 years - we are third generation owners. The cabin was finished in 2022 and opened for guests in 2023. Our goal is to maintain the woods and wildlife habitat surrounding "The Shed", providing a peaceful setting for our family and our guests.

Why they chose this property

Not a condo! You don’t have to share this space with anyone….Private owner property. Quiet area where in the morning you hear the birds singing as the sun rises. The evenings end with a bonfire in the backyard, a smore or glass of wine if you prefer. The beach (s) are five minutes away. If you are looking for a meal downtown, also five minutes. We are located close enough to the UP for a day trip to see the Magnificent Mighty Mac Bridge or spend time at Mackinaw Island.

What makes this property unique

Owners are interested in providing a clean and quiet place to escape from a busy schedule in a peaceful setting.

Premier Host
