Wound recommend and would rebook! Everything was great and just what we needed. AC worked perfect and countered the July heat well, kitchen and linen were stocked with all we needed, back and front yards were great for quick dog walks, location was convenient for walking into town, and everything was clean. We 100% enjoyed our stay!

centrally located

A nice centrally located rental property. Small extras like snacks and water bottles was a nice touch. Wished the listing had said that it had room/window air conditioners so 2nd bedroom ran a little warm. They did provide a fan in that room though.

A gem in Boyne city

The house was so clean and nice, enjoyed our stay immensely. It sits back off the road (felt very private) and had all the stuff we needed. Close to downtown and Lake Charlevoix., I would definitely stay at this home again and the communication with host (excellent).

Boyne City stay

comfortable house with amenities, there was no direct phone communication with owner, but none was needed. There was a nice folder with clear directions. The only thing I would like to suggest would be both bedrooms have an A/C as the one room would get stuffy when door was shut for privacy. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay!!

Michigan Mountain Mayhem Bike Ride

Clean, functional, comfortable and reasonably priced. Well stocked kitchen - bathroom, too, with ample, quality towels and paper products. Three blocks from the event start; less than a mile from its finish. Easy, relaxed walk to downtown, including a good selection of shops and restaurants. Being able to bring his dog along simplified travel plans for our adult son.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This was one of the worst rentals I've ever been to. There was blood on the comforter. Poop stains on the blinds in the bathroom. The whole place smelled of wet dog. When we wiped so.e water off of the floor the wipe came up black form not being cleaned. Someone tagged one of the ceiling panels in the main bedroom. There were also cobwebsand dust in the corners of the rental as well as the molding. The beds felt like water beds from all the use.

Peaceful Getaway spot

This property was a great location for things to do in Boyne, Charlevoix, and Petoskey. Anything you could need was provided to cook in this house which was great. Felt nice and homey, in a great neighborhood where we felt safe and it was very quiet. Used the gas fireplace on the back porch which was a great perk. Great big backyard for our dog that joined. Some bottles/cans/ and dog poop around the perimeter in bushes but it's hard to catch every little thing left by previous guests. Overall a fantastic stay and would come back!
