Cottage vacation rentals in Charlevoix County

The house was just as described. It was a short drive to the slopes and to nearby towns/restaurants. It was the perfect amount of space for our group of 6. The teens enjoyed the hot tub. We all enjoyed the fire place. There were plenty of essentials and more. Comfy bedding, nice pots/pans, and plenty of towels. Quick communication when we had questions. We’d stay here again.

Loved this place, everything was great! Would recommend it to anyone! Larissa was very friendly and helpful on any questions!

The host was very friendly and quick responding. Location is beautiful. Cool little cabin on the lake. Very well stocked with utensils, glassware, and games.

Beautiful and spacious house in a gorgeous setting! The place is modern, clean, well-laid out, and comfortable inside, with plenty of room for our group of 10. The hot tub was great, and the rest of the outdoors was gorgeous in the snow. Kyle was responsive, flexible, and friendly when we requested a slightly later checkout time. We would definitely come back again!

Loved out stay! The place was spacious with areas to hang out as a group (10) or separate if we needed to. Love that there were additional things to do like the pool table and hot tub. We also enjoyed the fireplace. We ended up getting a huge snow storm while we were there and it was so beautiful watching it fall through the big windows. The grounds were lovely as well and perfect for a short walk with the kids and for sledding. The surroundings were quite and we enjoyed our stay quite a bit.

Marc and his team were excellent hosts! Kind and always quick to respond. The place is spacious, comfortable and clean. The amenities (kitchen, bedding, bathroom) were all well stocked and never lacking. We loved using the hot tub to heal our body after skiing. The combination of beautiful scenery and privacy really made it feel like our own space. Excellent value. We’d like to come back in summer to enjoy the lake :)

My mother, sister, and I stayed at the cottage for a mother-daughter weekend. It was perfect for us and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. The listing was accurate and everything was as described, or even better. The cottage is decorated with charming furniture, art, and antiques. Everything was easy to find, and the kitchen was especially well-appointed. There were instructions for everything, including the fireplace, hot tub, and sauna (all of which we enjoyed). Perhaps best of all, at least for our quiet and cozy weekend, there isn't a single TV in the house! Plenty of places to sit down and read or just relax and enjoy each other's company. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, and downtown Petoskey was a 10 minute drive away. Very convenient. Clara was a communicative and kind host, and I enjoyed interacting with her. We definitely want to return in the summer months to enjoy the gardens and spend more time outside. Thank you for helping to make our weekend special!

2nd time for us and will definitely come back again. The wrap around deck allowed us to have coffee in the am without disturbing anyone else. The river and surrounding area is so peaceful and calm. Great accomodations and beautiful view.

This stone cottage is absolutely adorable. Everything you need for your stay is ready: comfy bed with super soft linens, clean towels, soaps, coffee and maker, and the list goes on and on. Nick greeted us as we arrived and was very hospitable. He left us a kind, welcome letter, fresh flowers, chocolates, and wine! The cable tv and WiFi worked perfectly too. But THE VIEW and LOCATION are amazing! It could not get better! Beautiful lawn, stone walls, and a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan. And it’s literally a 2 minute walk to cross the street and rock hunt or walk the beach! The neighborhood homes are mostly stone and historic-so beautiful. This place is peaceful and serene, and we will be back! Thank you, Nick. We had a great spring getaway! We’d love to return in the summer.

A perfect fall getaway! It was so peaceful and beautiful. Loved the sound of the waves. The window porch was the perfect place to read a book… or even just zone out to the lovely surroundings and sounds.

We had a great family of 6 getaway to this peaceful cabin. It was a great space to spend time together playing games, watching movies, and walking down to the lake. So pretty! Also, Aaron provided instructions in advance of what we needed to know. It is perfectly situated near Charlevoix and Petoskey. Thank you for a nice space to have family time and allow our grand pup to join us!

Got the chance to actually meet Spencer, Katie, and their son in person, wonderful people. We ran out of propane in the fire pit, but with one text they were there replacing it so I could enjoy a relaxing stay by the fire. The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. I would definitely recommend a stay at the coop. Close to parks, the lake, and downtown. It was the a great restful recovery weekend for me after tax season. Thank you Katie and Spencer for renting the coop.

This was the ideal spot for our Thanksgiving family reunion! The cabin was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The owner was incredibly helpful, especially when it came to instructions on getting to the location and accommodating our kids' and pet. We'd definitely stay here again!

This beautiful cabin was the perfect setting for our retreat. The home is situated right on Paradise Lake with easy access to the water. The location is also incredibly close to the upper peninsula and made day trips to local landmarks easy. The rooms were clean, cozy, and spacious enough for a four person group and dog. We would absolutely book this cabin again.

Great place to unwind and relax! Ellsworth Lake is such a beautiful spot and holds many memories for our family.

This was our first time visiting Harbor Springs/Good Hart and we are already planning our next trip back! Steve was extremely helpful and accommodating during our stay. The cottage gave off true up north vibes. The private beach was beautiful and so peaceful. The only thing that would have made our stay better is if we brought our Rottweiler, he would have loved it!

Great location close to the water and park with sand dunes. Beautiful spot to catch a sunset. Great location to see the sights. The Tunnel of Trees is within an hour. We enjoyed our stay and have marked it as a property to stay in again.

Linda’s place was absolutely wonderful. We stayed at the end of the season and Charlevoix was beautiful.

The house is so comfortable. closed to things we wanted to do and see. Great deck and dock. Kitchen was very well supplied. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pictures don’t do it justice! The home was perfect for our ski weekend. Spacious and the open floor plan made it great for spending time as a family. Clean spaces. Kind and responsive hosts. Will definitely book again for next year!

Everything was wonderful! Flexible with check-in time, the home was clean, and you could tell they made an effort to include small touches. Only two things were slightly subpar check-in; the door was snowed in. Directions said the garage was locked, but thankfully, it was the same code, or we would not have been able to get in. It is advertised as having a wood-burning fireplace, but it is nonfunctional. Aside from that, it was a great experience, and I would book again.

We had an amazing stay!! The location was perfect—very peaceful, and walkable to Lake Michigan, a grocery store, and downtown. The airbnb was perfect for a couple and had all the amenities we needed. Thomas greeted us when we arrived and went out of his way to make sure that we had an enjoyable time, but also let us have our privacy. He was interested to know if there were any improvements that could be made to improve our stay, but we couldn’t think of anything! We will definitely be back in the summer!

This was our second Fall visit and probably won't be our last. The amenities are beyond expectation and we were happy to see that nothing had changed since our visit last year. We hiked in Wilderness State Park and had dinner at the fabulous Douglas Lake Steakhouse. But mostly we relaxed; and Kirk and Karen's home is the perfect place to relax.
