About this property
North Retreat Oasis-Hot Tub, Dogs Ok, Boyne, Petoskey, Charlevoix, Skiing
Escape to this family-friendly Northern Michigan retreat—just 3 minutes to the beach on Lake Charlevoix and perfectly situated for year-round adventure. Designed for groups, kids, and dog owners, this home offers the comfort, convenience, and amenities guests rave about… including a 6-person LED hot tub, a fully fenced backyard, and one of the best-stocked kitchens many guests say they’ve ever rented!
Step into the open-concept living area and unwind together after a day of exploring. Stream your favorite shows or enjoy movie night on the 65” smart TV, sink into comfortable seating, and let the conversation flow seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen—ideal for cooking, gathering, and connecting.
Food lovers will appreciate the fully stocked kitchen, praised repeatedly in guest reviews. Enjoy cooking group meals with provided basics like coffee, teas, creamer, sugar, honey, cooking spices, cooking oil, Pam spray, and all the cookware and tools you need. Whether you’re making breakfast before hitting the slopes or prepping dinner after a beach day, this space is built for easy, enjoyable meal times.
The lower level features 3 comfortable bedrooms for up to 10 guests. Sleep soundly in the king bedroom, queen bedroom, or the ultimate kids zone—featuring a full-over-full bunk with a twin trundle (sleeps up to 5 kids!) plus a closet loaded with toys, puzzles, and games. An additional twin fold-away bed provides flexibility for larger groups.
Outdoor Living & Family Fun!!! ✔ Deck with patio furniture that can seat 12 people. ✔ Hot tub with LED lights that can seat 6. ✔ 2nd patio dining table set in the backyard next to the hot tub. ✔ Outdoor games are provided for family bonding time. ✔ Fire pit in the backyard (Note: Firewood is not provided)
Snow Fall: The driveway has a slight drop to it so a low vehicle may have trouble getting out of the driveway during high snow fall. Snowplow service is provided when snowfall is greater than 4 inches.
***Note*** This home is attached to a one bedroom/ one bathroom apartment, and both unites are listed as short-term rentals on VRBO and can be rented at the same time. There is a large and heavy door in the laundry room that is securely locked on both sides so when being dually rented, neither guest can unlock from their side to access the other unit. The laundry room in this unit is what separates the two spaces. Both units have their own separate front door on opposite sides of the house, and both have been designed to be very private and secluded. This unit has private access to the fully fenced in backyard and hot tub, the apartment cannot access the backyard and has their own private front door and fenced in outdoor seating area on their side of the house. If looking to rent the entire home, that is a separate listing on VRBO and can sleep 14 (4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms).

Quick trip for us and host was amazing! I booked the night before our trip and she was so helpful offering an early check in and late check out so that we could enjoy our time with no stress. Great property, very clean, thank you!
The house was as advertised and clean. The owners were easy to get ahold of and communicated promptly. I would recommend this property to anyone interested in staying in East Jordan.
