Downtown! Huge 3,000 sq. ft Historic CVX Cottage, Sleeps 16! New Central A/C!!!

Beautifully restored historic Charlevoix cottage. A surprising 6 bedrooms/4 baths make it the perfect place to host the entire family, right downtown so park the car once you arrive! The backyard is huge with a deck, patio, fire pit and tire. Walk to bars, restaurants, the splash pad, free bike rental, or any of the different beaches on Lake Michigan or Lake Charlevoix. The teenagers can come and go as they please as they explore all charlevoix has to offer as they shop, paint pottery or go to the local cinema.

Located just north of Round Lake between Lake Michigan and Lake Charlevoix in a quiet neighborhood of magnificent, large homes. Right around the corner from downtown (1.5 blocks). Beautiful large front porch that’s perfect for warm summer days and the spacious backyard that includes a historic century-old barn great for a scenic backdrop for photos and a stone patio with string lights for summer evening fun. Our cottage is only a one minute walk to a Lake Michigan public access!

Large Weber Grill, antiques from around the world, and a fully stocked kitchen. There is not a better large home in all of Charlevoix to host large gatherings. They say location is everything, add the best location, a huge flowing floor plan and one of the most beautiful historic streets and backyard with comfortable furnishings and authentic curated cottage decor. We own 6 cottages all within a half mile of downtown Charlevoix and a 4 luxury units in the middle of downtown and they are booked 100% of the time from June until the end of October. Our attention to every single detail separates us from the rest. We know how hard it is to choose a cottage, there are hundreds out there. We are our hardest critics and have used our travel experiences from all over the world to bring you the best guest experience possible. We do not use a vacation rental management company. You are our top priority. We often clean, resupply the house, landscape and everything in between! :)
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a private yard.

Wonderful property. Proximity to shops, restaurants, beach was perfect. The house and backyard could not have been better for our group of 14 women. There was space for us all to be together but also could break into different areas as needed.

We spent two nights there for a golf getaway with 10 senior women. With six bedrooms, the accommodations were great for our group. There are plenty of gathering spaces for evening conversations and game playing. The owners have done a beautiful job of making this older home a wonderful retreat. The owners were also prompt in asking questions we had before arrival.
9 of us - with # 10 photographing! Headed home after two days of golf.

The perfect cozy up north cottage!

Came here with a large group of adults for a ski trip. The house is even bigger than it looks in the photos! We loved the high end appliances and incredible attention to detail with the decor and furniture. Well stocked kitchen, impecably clean all around, and tons of space in the house to gather or to spend time on your own. Shawn was a wonderful host as well and we appreciated how simple and clear all the instructions and information were.

New Years with longtime friend group

Six couples, lots of cooking, a fire in the outdoor fire pit, pickleball in Petoskey, long walks through CVX, great shopping, wine at the Vue and great accommodations at the Nichols St. home! The home is spacious and worked well for our group. Plenty of seating, comfortable beds, and lots of natural light. The east family room was where we spent most of our time, watching TV, enjoying conversation, warming up by the fireplace and playing games. It really couldn’t have been a better stay!
