Beautiful house with all the comforts of home. Beach was perfect for the grandkids along with all the toys needed to keep them happy. Can't beat the location to Boyne and all it has to offer. Sandy was extremely responsive and very helpful. We've already booked for next year!

This was a fantastic house. The kitchen is very well stocked, bedrooms are very comfortable and the view from the living areas is phenomenal. We watched 7 gorgeous sunsets from the living room, dining room, patio, dock and fire pit on the beach. It is in a perfect location for Charlevoix, Boyne City, Petoskey and so many other attrations. We have spent a lot of time in this area over the past 50 years, and Boyne City has evolved into a really cool little town with great shops and restaurants. Sandy was a great host - she was immediately responsive to our questions. We did not encounter any problems, and would love to go back again in the future.

Great home on Lake Charlevoix. House is well appointed and was very comfortable. The kids used the fire ring every night for s’mores. The beach was fun and made it easy to use the kayaks and our paddle-boards. You can easily walk to the restaurant and shops of Boyne City. Overall a great experience.

We stayed here for a week, and it was the perfect spot for our family of six—two grandparents, two adults, and two kids. There was plenty of space for everyone! My parents even had their own little quarters and bathroom, (the bunk room was down the hall away from the main area) which was perfect.Not only was the house immaculate, but the location was amazing as well! The beach was great for our kids, and the water was shallow enough for them to comfortably play.We also took few morning trips during our stay. The house is conveniently located just 20 minutes from Charlevoix, 10 minutes from Boyne Mountain, and 20 minutes from Petoskey!We had such a wonderful stay and will definitely be staying here again!

10/10! A PERFECT extended stay over Labor Day weekend, right on beautiful Lake Charlevoix! The views of the water, sandy shallow beach, and lush grassy backyard made the stay very special for our 3 families, which included 8 young kids. Plenty of space inside for our group. Great backyard and beach area for kids! We also brought a pontoon boat for some lake cruises and fishing. Grocery stores & Boyne City within a couple minutes, and just a 20 minute drive to Charlevoix where we shopped and hunted for Petoskey stones! We are already planning to rebook for next year! Sandy was a wonderful, responsive host. Highly recommend this spot!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Gerlach

Host profile image
We have been enjoying hosting guests at our other summer homes for 5 years and just acquired this home in 2018. We are a family of 6 and know what it takes to have a fun safe place to bring your family. We like to accommodate large families and give them a place where they get all the fun without having to leave the property. Safety for little ones with areas to play is important.

Why they chose this property

Location is spectacular! You can't get any closer to down town Boyne City AND be on the lake. Sunset views are the best! This property has a large sandy, not rocky, beach, which is unusual for Lake Charlevoix. Boyne City is a fun town with lots of festivals, shopping and dining, all available with a short walk! Have a go on the kayaks or paddleboard provided. To be able to get the full vacation experience without having to get in your car is wonderful!
