Family House

Overall our stay was great. Enough space for the entire family to have enough room to spread out but still spend time together. Location was perfect, about a 15 minute walk downtown. Not the cleanest place I have stayed but worked well for us.

Great Place to Stay in Charlevoix

We stayed in this home for a family vacation with our cousins. (There were 4 adults and 4 teens.). We had a great time and the house matched the listing description perfectly. Our family also had a dog and she enjoyed the fenced in yard. The yard is a nice size, well shaded, and a great spot to relax. The neighborhood and street are very quiet and well shaded as well. We did walk into town for coffee and breakfast several of the mornings we were there. The walk was enjoyable and it took about 12 minutes for us to get to downtown Charlevoix. Depot beach was also a fun spot for our kids to hang out and swim. We had a great vacation and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Charlevoix

Enjoyed our stay. One suggestion would be to add a grab bar is the tub. I am short and it was a challenge getting in and out of the tub. Also, could use some clothes hooks in the bathroom for wet towels.

Great Location

The house was in a modest, but safe neighborhood very close to town. It is walkable but we were there for a wedding and drove most times. The house was well stock meeting all our needs for a long weekend. The inside was clean and been updated for an older home. Beds were comfortable and so was living room furniture. Plenty of linens and pillows, towels etc. A full length mirror would have been nice to get ready for the wedding. I would have given a 5 for cleanliness except it was very messy outside and windows and siding looked as though they hadn't been cleaned in years. There are a lot of trees in the area and that may be part of the problem but other homes surrounding were clean. Thank you to the host she was very prompt on my emails. We enjoyed our stay.

Great house

We enjoyed this house very much. There was ample room for the four of us. It was clean, comfortable and in a mostly quiet neighborhood. There are tennis courts behind the house but the sound is no more bothersome than a lawnmower. Convenient to many activities and beaches without being in a heavy traffic area.

Very Nice Home

Very beautiful home. Would absolutely stay again. The kitchen is small and narrow. Galley kitchen. All new appliances. Huge backyard with plenty of shade. The lawn service came during our stay which was odd as we had to take our chairs in and stay in the house to stay out of the way.

Great home close to town!

Home was very nice inside! Very clean and supplied well. Down stairs finished and very nice. Futons not comfortable for sleeping. Could use another mattress. Beds very comfortable. Would have been nice to have dressers. Newly renovated kitchen with everything you need. Great fenced in yard for our dog. Outside could use some cleaning and painting but great neighborhood! Owner most of the time easy to get a hold of. Our family of 10 had a wonderful week in Charlevoix the Beautiful!

Great Property for a stay!!

Clean and well laid out house. Had plenty of room to accomodate a larger group, we didnt even use half the house!! Dog friendly was a major plus, and if your dog loves tennis balls the courts behind keep the backyard well stocked with balls!! House was well stocked, clean, central air, and very comfy!! Quick walk to the golf course and depot beach. Just need some blinds for the bedrooms, very bright streetlight in front of the house and early mor ing sun. Will 100% rent again next year of its available our week!! Thanks Stephanie!!

Beautiful pet-friendly home in Charlevoix with great host!

This is a beautiful, clean, and well-equipped home just minutes to downtown Charlevoix. The neighborhood is well-cared for, safe, and quiet. Slept five adults with ease. Fenced in backyard allowed us to let the dogs run freely. Little extras, like a dog bed, were greatly appreciated. Stephanie is a responsive host and does an excellent job providing the start of a fun vacation! Thanks, Stephanie!!!

Great Kitchen and Fenced Yard

We had a great stay and loved the chef kitchen and fenced yard for dogs. The kitchen is well stocked with the necessary pots, pans, utensils needed. Great coffee pot and also a french press if warranted. Beautiful refridgerator and stove, we brought food and also cooked so this was awesome. Both bathrooms were very well stocked with extra towels and washcloths. The house has a nice cozy layout, very accommodating for our 3 adult daughters and (2) significant others. We stayed during a very cold, icy and very windy weekend and the beds only had sheets with a light comforter. Only (2) extra light comforters in the house. Both my daughter and I brought a blanket from our homes but we ended up borrowing one from my brother down the street so bring blankets if you stay in the winter. The driveway was plowed on Saturday for us, and we used an old broom to remove the snow however on Sunday we had to borrow a few shovels from my brother to shovel ourselves out in the morning and get my daughters car off the street from the snow storm the night before, we could not find any shovels. A few blankets and a shovel are an easy recommended fix as it is a great 4 bedroom and pet friendly house to stay in :)

Decent location. Roomy inside. Extremely poorly maintained exterior and grounds.

The exterior is filthy. In particular the eaves are full of dirt and leaves and growing trees out of them. When it rained the drives and walks were overflowed with dirt and mud from the gutters. Outside was extremely dirty. Patio and drive had not need blown off all summer it appeared. Nor the garage floor. So you might as well have walked through sand to enter the cottage. I complained and the owner sent a college kid over with a push broom who swept a couple spots and left. I asked him where his blower was and he just shrugged. Outdoor grill only got to about 250. Inside was roomy and clean. So that was good. So they found a good cleaning lady. But obvious that this is a slumlord getting by on the cheap. House really run down on the exterior. Owner had just been there as well. I guess I have higher standards.

Not As Pictured

Actually false advertising. There is no beautiful outside seating area. Just a trashy pergola with weeds growing in the cracks of the patio. Not one flower or plant and the house is surrounded with weeds. And, this is the amenity that drew us to the property. Host was somewhat difficult. Refused checkin info until 2 days before checkin date. Kitchen is not well equipped, except for very nice appliances. There is one wine glass. Most windows will not open and no screens. Bad, especially in bedrooms. No drawers in bedrooms so you have to live out of your suitcase. From our experience, with nicer properties, it is much over priced. The house was clean. Plenty of nice towels and beach towels. Comfortable beds with nice bedding. Newer appliances and decent furnishings. We appreciated it being pet friendly, but would not consider coming back.
