Wonderful stay!

We booked very last minute and Terri made us feel welcome from the start. Our room was large, clean, very comfortable and within walking distance to everything we wanted to do. We really enjoyed chatting with Terri, she was like visiting a relative😊Morning breakfast was fun, we chatted with the other couple and shared ideas and stories. This was our first time staying in a bed and breakfast and if they are all like this, we will definitely make it a habit. Thank you for the wonderful stay!!

Terri was a wonderful host! The continental breakfast was a great start to my day and had a good selection of food to choose from. The bed and breakfast has ample parking and it's a short walk to downtown Charlevoix. The street traffic can be very loud in the morning. So if you plan on sleeping in I would suggest booking one of the rooms farthest from the front of the house.

The charlevoix Northside was great, Terri is a attentive host and she did her best to salvage a very disappointing experience at the other charlevoix house. At that location we were mislead regarding the size and layout of the room which turned out to be on the third floor in a HOT attic without proper air conditioning or ventilation. AC was the other issue we were Mislead about. No attention to this problem was even attempted by manager. We were completely frustrated and Will Never return to charlevoix house near the downtown area. Only high praise for the Northside location for helping us in a last minute situation.
