Clean Country Stay

What a lovely place in a country setting, but not too far from our favorite places. The interior was just as beautiful as it appearred. Our six adults were quite comfortable. Wish we could have stay longer to enjoy the front porch and patio more.

Totally perfect for our family of 5. Spacious and clean. We’re veteran renters and enjoy a clean, organized home. Porch was lovely for morning coffee and the fire pit backyard area was so magical to us. The area is so beautiful with rolling hills and sandwiched between Petoskey and Charlevoix. This home felt like home and we will definitely be back. Thank you!!

Great spot for family ski vacation

The house was clean, spacious, well-stocked, cozy and the beds were super comfortable. Kids loved the bunk bed nook and it was great having our dog able to join us. The outside space was wonderful for walking the dog and we enjoyed the trails into the woods. Location was perfect for visiting Boyne Highlands and Boyne Mountain. We would recommend this place and would definitely stay again!

Great Family Stay!

We loved staying at Pincherry Acres for our family’s long weekend. The house is clean and had everything we needed for our family. We love the proximity to Petoskey and also to Boyne Mountain and Boyne Highlands for skiing. This was a return trip and we will be back again!

Excellent Up North winter getaway

We loved this renovated old farmhouse! Very comfortable and great amenities, and dog friendly! We loved the trails on the 50 acres behind the house, beautiful field and wooded property. We were so fortunate that the snow came just before we got there and were able to X-country ski on the property as well as enjoy snowboarding at Boyne and Nubs Nob. Close to Boyne City and Petoskey for restaurants. Lovely winter getaway!

Great Place!

This house was soooo nice. Insanely spacious and such a nicely furnished and re-done home. The only one small negative is the sheets seemed old and very used. They felt like they had sand on them (I think just from many washes and use). Other than that, great stay!

Peaceful Haven

Thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property! Morning coffee on the front porch was a great way to start the day. The restored farmhouse and its acreage provide many ways to enjoy nature. On a clear night, the night sky is impressive. The owner is quick to respond to all cares and concerns. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Charlevoix Farmhouse

Pincherry Farms exceeded our expectations. What a lovely, welcoming farmhouse! Not only was it exceptionally clean, the mix of old and new decor lent to its charm. They made great use of their space by creating fun little nooks. We loved that it was set in the country far enough away to be relaxing, but relatively close to both Charlevoix and Petoskey. We loved everything about this farmhouse. We will definitely be back!

beautiful house- best Vrbo I ever stayed at.

It's a stunning farmhouse renovation! very tasteful. Plenty of space for us 3 +1 ( small dog, who struggled with the open staircase). Little den was perfect for my daughter who had to work remote, internet was sufficient. We have been in the area before, so we knew our way around . A nature lover's dream. Plenty of walking, skiing, snowshoeing trails close by. Recommended for all seasons. The kitchen has all the necessities. Five stars all around!

Peaceful Property

Thank you for a great stay. It was very cozy and relaxing place with everything we needed. They did a great job renovating and decorating the place! The backyard is a 5-star amazing little hangout/peaceful place! The firewood they provided for the fire pit was great touch; thanks so much! My only negative was the pillows lol & the one bedroom the bed was so very squeaky/loud when you moved even the slightest bit; It was an issue for me because I was sharing the room with my baby next to me in a pack n play so I was afraid to move and wake her. The pull out couch was another option but also not great (even though I know pull outs never are it's getting old). I let the property owners know my honest review and I do think they're going to take care of some of it; a long w a few other little things. Overall the place was clean and had everything else you would think to need! (Bring your own pillow of you're picky like me😂) Also it's a great location 15 minutes from Petoskey, or charlevoix, some close wineries, some beaches/lakes, and some hiking lots to do and the property is pretty too! My husband had a broken foot so we didn't really get to explore the land as much as we wanted to and our kids are pretty young but it was nice to relax out back and grill and have fires. 🔥👍

We love our stays here, and this was no exception. The location is great for skiing in the winter and to access local restaurants. The house is clean and has all the things you need when staying for a long weekend. It was super convenient that the driveway was plowed for us without asking when we stayed during the winter.

Lovely Farmhouse Stay

This is our second time staying in this lovely farmhouse. This time we got the chance to walk the property. There are paths cut through the fields and woods. What a beautiful walk. The charming farmhouse is perfectly situated between Charlevoix and Petoskey.
