Clean, cozy place with thoughtful, attentive management … perfect for ski adventure
Clean and well-kept rental very close to skiing at Boyne Mountain and a reasonable drive up to Nub’s Nob. Near the lovely restaurants, etc., in town as well. Property managers are hospitality-minded with welcoming and helpful amenities from providing snacks and coffee supplies, to recommendations for local attractions, to electric blankets on the beds (big hit with out 8-year-old), to quickly answering texts and communicating proactively. Recommended!

Great location for Boyne skiing
We stayed here on a ski weekend trip. Was perfect size for me and 2 kids. We loved the heated blankets after a full day of skiing! Location was just a few minutes from the mountain so we could come back for lunch or dinner and then go back to ski later.

Yay for Boyne
We just needed a small place to stay while visiting the resort. We are so happy we found this home. It was exactly what we were looking for! The best part was the 2 bedrooms so our small children could be put to bed and we could still enjoy our evening. I mostly interacted with Becky and she was so helpful and friendly. We will stay here next time we are in boyne (fingers crossed)

Cute House and Perfect Location
This is our second time staying here. I’m very picky about the cleanliness of a house. This house is spotless, super cute, and in a perfect location in town. We tend to drive all over when we are up - Traverse City, Indian River, Mackinac, etc and this is central to all. The owners communicate very well and we had absolutely no issues. Highly recommend!

A beautiful fall weekend away
We arrived late at night the day of our stay, but the directions and check in were so easy. When I walked in I felt right at home. The home was clean and comfortable after our 3.5hr drive after working and school that day. The bedroom setup was perfect for our family and the beds were so comfortable. We were so close to downtown Boyne City, that my husband and son walked to check things out. Petoskey is only a short drive away. Overall this was a wonderful place to have all the comforts of home away from home. I would definitely recommend! Hopefully we will be back in the summer months!!

About the host

Hosted by Rebekah Hagerty

Host profile image
Since childhood, Brian has spent summers and winters visiting grandparents in Boyne City and nearby Harbor Springs. Following 28 years of marriage and demanding careers, we continue to be drawn to Boyne City and have chosen this friendly “Main Street” community to be our retirement home. Our family was blessed with the marriage of my mother-in-law Dianne and her husband Rick Behling. After years of leaving the Boyne area where they grew up, they reunited, married, and moved back to Boyne City! We are delighted to have recently retired to Boyne City to be with family. Home truly is where the heart is, and Rick and Dianne are at the center.

Why they chose this property

Northern Michigan is known for its beauty in all seasons. We are now blessed with the opportunity to live where many others come to vacation. We are excited to share our community with others and to provide opportunities unique to Northern Michigan.

What makes this property unique

Our newly remodeled, clean home, is conveniently located within a 10 minute walk to downtown Boyne. It boasts a large backyard for family and friends to enjoy with private parking for your vehicles and watercraft. Our house is centrally located for nearby activities at Lake Charlevoix, Boyne Mountain, Young State Park, and the Avalanche Mountain Preserve.
