This was a beautiful place to stay, right in the heart of Boyne City with so much to see and do. This house was very comfportable in a quiet neighborhood near the river. Lake Charlevoix a few blocks away, a bike path that one way takes you into Boyne Mountain and another way into Young State Park and Avalanche Preserve with wonderful views and hiking paths were great October fun. The backyard was so private and the firepit and wood supplied were appreciated.

Very Charming and Close to Town

This was a very charming home that exceeded our expectations. Many antiques were incorporated into the updated decor of this home that really delighted us. The home had everything we needed including a very nice back yard set up where we could enjoy the outdoors. VERY close to town, just a 5 minute walk. The host was very gracious and responsive to our needs.

Lovely stay within walking distance of the lake

This is the second time we have stayed at this property and it was, yet again, a wonderful experience. The house is clean and pleasantly decorated, with a beautiful and private back yard. It is in a quiet neighborhood within easy walking distance of the lake and the farmers' market. Everyone from my party had only good things to say about our weekend. Thanks so much for providing such a quality establishment!

Fall tour

Wanted to stay central to TC and Harbor Springs and decided on this cozy VRBO. When we arrived, the lights were on and fireplace going. That was a nice welcome! Very very clean home and the backyard was very nice! The weather didn't cooperate but we still made the best of our time there. Would definitely book again. Maybe for a winter ski trip??? Thank you for allowing us to stay there!

Are stay was very pleasant as comfortable as at home. The house was clean; the backyard is set up so very nice ; unfortunately we didn't have time to enjoy it. Hoping to come back in warm weather. Only negative we all had is too many decorations on tables and bedroom counters. Thank you Patty Richard Sandi Hollie

Charming and Cozy

We came to the Boyne area for the first time to ski. I chose this home due to the great reviews, quaint style, and location. It did not disappoint! The fireplace and lights where on upon our arrival which was a wonderful way to be greeted since it was a cold dark evening when we arrived. The home was decorated in such a charming way that it made it easy to feel comfortable there:) It was very clean. The beds were firm, yet surprisingly comfortable. Plenty of towels and face clothes were left out for us. It was a perfect stay and the hosts were readily available and responsive when/if needed. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!
