This home provided the perfect vacation for our family of 8 adults and 7 children, all 8 or under. We usually take day trips, but everyone enjoyed the lake, the backyard, and the home so much, no one cared to leave. The beach was perfect for all ages and the sports and water equipment available for use was awesome. And the owners we met were just wonderful.
Beautiful place.
The home is exactly as advertised. Large, well-thought out (2 refrigerators + 2 dishwashers + 2 tables in the kitchen) and PERFECT for big family gatherings or even two families eager to visit Up North. The bedrooms are plentiful and comfortable. The family that owns the home is a joy to work with. Every small detail from the firepit to the paddleboards and canoes to the volleyball court has been considered and really adds to the experience. The home sits on an absolutely perfect location of Oyster Bay, which is a welcome respite from the big lake, especially on days when the wind picks up and it gets choppy. Very convenient to downtown Charlevoix by car or boat, as well as other attractions on the lake like the Landing. Truly an outstanding home for a summer break.
