About this property

Northern Michigan "Treehouse" Retreat

This second story apartment provides the northern Michigan experience. The views from the deck and windows overlook fields and woods and it is so quiet that deer and wild turkeys pass through the property. Just outside the backyard you can hike or cross country or snowshoe the fields and hills. There is plenty of room for a trailered boat to park. The owners' home is on the property.
The open living room and kitchen area have a spacious feel. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking with eating at the bar or a small dining table is in a window nook. The pellet stove provides atmosphere and added warmth; otherwise there is hot water heat. One bedroom has a queen bed and the other has a king size bed with walk in closets in both. The full bathroom has double sinks, bath/shower and plenty of storage. Linens and towels are provided and washer and dryer are available. On the deck is a gas grill. WiFi is available free. AC unit is in the living area and one bedroom.

Location: The property is just 6 miles from Boyne City, less than 1 mile from Lake Charlevoix beach access and a small boat launch. Less than a mile away is the newly completed bike path into Boyne City. Hike or bike Avalanche Hill for great views of the lake. Go the farmers' market in summer or fall or the many festivals that the city offers throughout the year.
Drive about 10 miles to Charlevoix or Petoskey. There you can shop, dine, golf, kayak, bike, fish, canoe, attends concerts, or hike the many trails of the nature preserves.
About 12 miles away is Boyne Mountain and 30 miles is Boyne Highlands and Nubs Nob. Snowmobile trails are also in the winter.

Autumn Retreat
I needed some peace and quiet to relax. I am so glad that I chose the "Treehouse". The price was affordable, property clean, and the location was within an hour or less of the surrounding areas my sis-in-law and I wanted to visit. We loved passing through the tree lined driveway to find the Treehouse, nestled around the woods. The view of Autumn's vibrant colors from the deck were amazing. The open floor plan welcomes you into a cozy setting. There were stuffed wildlife around the house. (Excellent craftsmanship). The pellet stove was easy to operate and provided a warm glow and warmth. There were plenty of towels, and extra blankets/pillows if needed. One of the highlights was the beds - so comfortable! We heard their puppy, Ginger, but never got a chance to meet her. I would definitely go back.

About the host

Hosted by Janet Sturza

Host profile image
Retired couple from downstate that have spent time here since the 1980s.

Why they chose this property

When we came to area in the 1980s it was to ski the slopes of Boyne Mountain and the Highlands. After renting a cottage in the summer, 1986 and experiencing beautiful Lake Charlevoix, we knew we wanted to come here for skiing and boating. We first bought a cottage a mile away in 1987 but when the 11 acres came up for sale, we bought and built our dream home. We retired here in 2004 and love the friendly people and the amount of outdoor and cultural activities that we can do.

What makes this property unique

This is a quiet, private piece of land but right off the main county road. It offered us a chance to build our home and the barn without restrictions.
