Family Get-away
The home and yard are spacious and property manager was very responsive. Understand the home is on the water but there were so many spiders and spiderwebs it looked as if it had not been cleaned recently or very well. Photos need to be updated. Deck and swing set are much older than appear. The sand photo looked to me as a sandy beach. It is not. It is a sandbox.

2024 Family Vacation
The family really enjoyed our annual vacation this year. The house was in a wonderful location on Lake Charlevoix and my son was able to moor his boat very close to the house dock. Many sand toys, wonderful playset and yard games too. Loved the sandbar to relax and "The Landings" to dock the boat for a great lunch/dinner. The nightly bonfires were wonderful roasting smores. Very child friendly for our 3 year old granddaughter. Exceeded our expectations. Yes, there is some street sound in the front of the house, for two bedrooms but just bring a couple sound machines which other VRBO guests advised, and it works well. Sandy was a great host - thank you on behalf of our family!

Perfect Getaway
Stayed at the house for a weekend wedding and it was the perfect spot. About a mile from downtown East Jordan, we were able to relax by the water or head into town quickly for a bit to eat. Would recommend to anyone.

Kid friendly Lake getaway
Our kids (two 2 yo, and two 4 yo) loved staying here. They thought of everything! The play set, kayak, sand box and toys were a hit. However, the front door is easily opened by toddlers from the inside. Otherwise, this was a relatively stress free stay with our toddlers. Thank you for a great stay!

Lake Charlevoix House
Lake views were great, deck was on the Lake Shore, kitchen and baths were clean and appliances were fairly new. Location convenient and easy to get to stores and restaurants in East Jordan as well as on the highway to get to Charlevoix and Petoskey or Traverse for more specialized, tourist shopping. Great location and great lake views!!

Amazing Lake Front House
We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful home. It is right on the lake and easy to dock a boat to a buoy. We enjoyed the kayaks, the fire pit, the grill and the paddle board. The house is very comfortable and the view is gorgeous! Plenty of space in the bedrooms. We love the deck off the master bedroom. The kitchen is fully stocked and has plenty of room for your own groceries. The host is awesome and will make sure you have everything you need during your stay. This was our 2nd time in the house. It's a perfect place for vacation!

Perfect for families
We stayed here with my family and friends over Labor Day weekend: 4 adults and 6 kids total. We had a great time relaxing, enjoying the view of the lake, the paddle board and kayaks. The yard with all the kids toys were just perfect. My kids loved the sand pits and the swing set. They even played in the open space and played volleyball. There is enough room for the kids to run around and get energy out. It was such a great space. There’s enough space for parents to relax while kids play. The house was very roomy and I appreciated the space each room had. We were in the primary bedroom and I loved view of the lake and balcony. We sat there relaxing in the mornings before heading down to the kitchen to meet the kids. We did cook every morning and three nights out of our 4 nights there and the kitchen was stocked with all the cooking utensils, and pots/pans. We needed to buy additional condiments like garlic powder, paprika and other staple ingredients but they had the basics of salt and pepper condiments. The couches were so comfortable and perfect setup for movie watching. Sandy was such a pleasure to work with, her flexibility was also so much appreciated. She really provided us a wonderful stay, beautiful home and amazing lake with yard! We would love to come back.

Great family vacation!
We stayed for a week at Sandy's place and it was a great vacation. Would absolutely recommend the house itself, and Sandy as a lovely host. Pros: - Spacious, open living/dining/kitchen area. - Right on the water - Play structure was a hit with all the kiddos - Rooms were sizable and comfortable Cons: - The floor was definitely not fully cleaned when we arrived. Not a huge deal but not my favorite feeling. - There was no extra toilet paper or paper towel, which we didn't realize till it was close to too late. Take note in advance of your shopping trip! - This is not the house itself, but something to note for all of lake Charlevoix: the boat rental place will not allow you to tie the boats up to the actual dock, you need to do offshore mooring - aka jump in the water to walk/swim out to your boat and back. Not ideal with tiny kiddos, but we made it work.
