Wonderful property, close enough to downtown to have access to all attractions but far enough away to avoid any heavy traffic.

Andrew was very accommodating however he is in need of a professional cleaning service. Dirty and broken blinds and when we moved the couch in the tv room we found a dead mouse. Having trouble loading the picture of the mouse. Can try again later if necessary.

Kids paradise
We stayed at this property but spent most of our time at my brothers cottage on lake Charlevoix. It is a very nice place with all sorts of entertainment for younger folks and lots of privacy. It is also air conditioned which is not listed among the amenities.

The home was very spacious with room to spread out comfortably. The location was perfect for everything we did in Charlevoix and the surrounding area. The backyard was perfect for pets and children.
