Super cute house with all the amenities needed. Owners have a side apartment that we didn’t know about a furry stayed there. Would recommend a larger tv in the family space. Everything else was a 10. Thank you

Best location, Fantastic experience

The house is very nice, and for the price I don't think you will find a better value. In two minutes you can walk to downtown and the marina. We are so happy that we chose this house, and woykd recommend it to someone who wants the best value in town.

Cute little duplex

My family had a wonderful stay at this property this past week. We haven't been to Charlevoix in many years together. This property was super-convenient to downtown and many of the familiar places we enjoy going. Access by car and parking were easy too. The front porch, back porch, and backyard seating areas were really great for us to use. Owner is essentially on-site should any problems arise. Enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful house in town

The house feels like home--comfortable living room and dining room, a spacious kitchen with appliances and utensils for cooking, two bathrooms, and three comfortable bedrooms. We were able to enjoy the front porch as well as the back porch for morning coffee. It's two minutes to town, and so easy to reach other destinations from this location.

Fabulous property in a great location.

Our stay was excellent starting with a warm welcome from the owners and great communication throughout. The property was very well equipped to accommodate our large family comfortably for an entire week. The walk into downtown for restaurants and shopping as well as beaches is extremely convenient. This property is highly recommended!!

Fall Vacation at Dixon House

Renting this property was very easy. John and Jeri were very accommodating and communication was good. They allowed us to have a late check out. Very few properties will rent to us due to our cats. We will go back to Dixon House.

Amazing location, but...

This was our 5th trip up to Charlevoix for Apple Fest, and by far this house was the best location in terms of walkability to Downtown that we have ever had. We really appreciated this factor since we have two small children. The bedrooms were all a nice large size. The front porch was so beautiful and inviting, as well as the back patio area was very nice and a new grill was included for use at the property. The house was very spacious and had some little extras that were helpful for us, ie. pac n play, umbrella stroller, children’s books. John and Jeri we also very accommodating to us requesting an early check- in too! Thank you! They also left a beautiful welcome arrangement of chocolate bars, local MI wine, and chocolate covered cherries. Very sweet! However there were some downsides... the full size bed in the middle bedroom was very uncomfortable. My husband jokingly commented, “at one point in the night I woke up and thought about relocating to the floor because I thought it might be more comfortable.” While we certainly appreciate the charm of an old house (we had one ourselves), the creakiness of the floor upstairs proved problematic for us with 2 little children being awakened (as well as adults waking to use the restroom in the middle of the night and waking others up). Additionally, I’m not sure that a single door in the house latched properly. The cleanliness left a little to be desired, baseboard were very dusty and could have benefited greatly from some caulking and a quick paint touch up. The bathroom situation wasn’t ideal. The upstairs bathroom didn’t have a shower (only bathtub). I think we mostly found the squeaky floors and bathroom situation cumbersome because of the small children. But just something to consider for families.

Perfect Location! Great place to stay!

The owners are very nice and communication was easy. They welcomed us with chocolate and wine, which was an unexpected treat. We enjoyed our stay in their home a lot. It is inviting, charming and comfortable. In particular the Front Porch was a big hit! The house is well equipped and has everything one would need for a much longer stay. The location of the house is perfect. The neighborhood is very nice with it's tree lined streets and sidewalks. Everyone enjoyed the walks including our dogs. A big plus was also the short walk to downtown Charlevoix. No car needed. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Charlevoix Visit

Location is great , can walk to downtown, sitting on the front porch is great, the use of outside grill was great, but if you need two complete bathrooms the one upstairs is a tub , no way to take a shower, that was the only drawback.

Great Location!

Needed a place to stay for a Wedding at the Castle! The Dixon House was perfect! We had 6 people, my husbsnd and i plus our adult children and their significant others. The owners were very nice leaving us wine and chocolates for arrival and comunication was great! Everything you needed during the stay was provided. Walking distance to beach and town. The porch was my favorite, whether coffee in the morning or a drink in the evening! Would rent again for a longer stay

Front Porch Magic

My friends and I came down for a wedding at Castle Farms for the weekend. We all can't believe how perfect the Dixon House was for us. We spent as much time out on the porch every morning just enjoying the neighborhood and each other's company. I agree with another review that the pictures don't do it justice, but it fit 8 of us just fine and dandy. I highly recommend this property and will tell everyone about it. We not only loved the house itself, but we loved the location to downtown. The walk over the bridge and into downtown is not only very manageable, but nice to have after all the delicious food we were consuming. Thanks Dixon House for a wonderful visit!

Family Charm

We loved the Dixon House. If you love historic homes, this is the house to rent. It is clean and comfortable. It has everything you need. The owners are wonderful to work with and our pets were welcome. The owners welcomed us with chocolates and wine. The communication from start to finish was excellent and prompt. The price is very reasonable. The location is great as it is close enough to walk down town and to the lakes, yet you are off the beaten path. The porch is beautiful. We will choose to stay at the Dixon House again. We have not stayed in Charlevoix in the past, but, needed a place to stay for our son's wedding at Castle Farms. Now, we will visit for pure, simple relaxation and time away. It was beautiful and the Dixon House made it a comfortable stay. Really, though, I think the best part was the owners. They were so very nice and were willing to accommodate our extra requests.

Front porch perfection

We just returned form a wonderful weekend in Charlevoix and the best thing about it was this amazing house! Everything was super clean and so well stocked! The location was an easy walk to downtown, but far enough off the main road to be quiet and peaceful. The front porch was our favorite part! The owners were gracious and helpful with all of my questions. If this home has a vacancy during the time that you are looking to travel to Charlevoix do not hesitate to make your reservation, you will not be disappointed!

Loved the Dixon House

I absolutely loved this house! the pictures do not do the property justice. We rented the house for a wedding at the castle. The shuttle for the wedding was just down the street. We stayed with my two grown kids and spouses. We all loved it & hope to return soon. Mary

About the host

Host profile image
I loved growing up on Dixon Avenue in Charlevoix. When my children were young, I wanted them to have some of the wonderful experiences I had during my childhood and when the opportunity presented itself to purchase this charming old house, I couldn't resist. We remodelled Dixon House in 2008-2009 with the idea of providing modern amenities while retaining its original character and its comfortable atmosphere. If you are looking for a relaxing vacation with family or friends, we think you will like Dixon House.
