Be our guests cottage Close to Lake Michigan and 10 minutes to Charlevoix.

Very peaceful and convenient location short walk to a quiet Township Park right on Lake Michigan!

Messages I sent to host, rec’d no replies.Wed pmHi Gerry. When you get a chance can you tell me how to get the ceiling fan on in the living room? It’s a little stuffy & there’s no air circulation.Otherwise, cottage is super cute & very clean!Thu amOr if it doesn’t work is there another tower fan we could use downstairs to circulate air? It’s very very stuffy.Fri amDesperately need a fan downstairs, Gerry! The one upstairs is necessary to keep the bedroom & bathroom tolerable.Fri pmThank goodness for one air conditioned room; otherwise this house would be intolerable it’s so hot. The TV in the air conditioned room has no signal so we can be cool but not entertained. Listing this house as “air conditioned” is incredibly misleading. So much for truth in advertising, Gerry. I’m extremely disappointed in the lack of response when I first requested instructions (23 hours ago) on activating the living room ceiling fan or to my additional messages requesting an additional fan. Sat amWe’ve been using VRBO for nearly 20 years, but this is the first time we’ve ever experienced an absolutely silent, non-communicative host. Extremely disappointed in the lack of response & the fact that the house was unbearably hot with the exception of one bedroom. Even that unit struggled to keep it cool but it was better than the rest of the house. This listing should not have “air conditioning” on it. The review I leave will be truthful in hopes to warn future guests. Deceptive listing!

Washer and dryer were no working (we were informed that would be the case). AC is only in one room upstairs - downstairs would get pretty humid and warm during the day while we were out and about. The room with the AC would get quite cold when it was in use. Screen door onto deck didn't fir real well, but we could close it. Massage chair didn't work either (not a real issue, but thought you would like to know. Very nice place to stay, close to everything we did while up there.Steve Kile

Older cottage that has been restored very nicely. Bedrooms were large and comfortable. The outside was very spacious and soooo quite. You can walk to the beach and yet was very close to Charlevoix. Gerry was a great host and saw to our every need.Thanks

This lovely cottage in the town of Norwood is just a few shorts block with a quiet an idyllic beach. We had the best of life in a very quiet and idyllic town with the convenience of downtown Charlevoix just a short drive away. The hosts provided all the amenities we needed.

cottage was nice and cozy

This is not just a comfortable house located in a quiet neighorhood, but it is also a beautiful house. Everything is first rate. It is the sort of house that feels like it is someone's home, with everything just as you would want it. The beds are comfortable, the linens plush. The house is small, but fine for us. Kitchen is a little small, but perfectly adequate. Eveeything is as described, in fact even exceeding my expectations. Really, this is a lovely piece of property. perfect for a couple.

Second time to the cottage and want to come back next summer. Great Lake MI beaches nearby. Cottage is in a beautiful setting and is equipped with everything you need.??

Overall our stay met our expectations. We could do all the things we came to this area to do. The community “dog friendly” beach around the corner was an extra bonus. Plenty of linens and towels plus a supply of toiletries were available. Our only concern was the refrigerator never got down to the proper temperature, the freezer was fine though.

Cottage was super cozy. Very nice on the inside and location was private and quiet. Nice and relaxing and felt like home rather than a hotel. Enjoyed walking to the beach and house was located reasonably close to Charlevoix and Petoskey. My family had a great stay and enjoyed our time there. Did find communications with owner a little unclear. The number listed in the info binder was not up-to-date. And this is probably a personal preference but I did find the smell of the well water off-putting.

My family had a wonderful stay in the Charlevoix area -- hosts were responsive and helpful and the home was comfortable and well-apportioned. This was our second stay at the cottage and we would recommend it to anyone heading to the area.
