About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

5 minutes to town, New Cabin-2/4 adults or family up to 4 kids. Beach 2 miles.

Private, stand-alone cabin nestled in the woods. Perfect for a family or four adults. Quiet, paved country road. Five minutes to Lake Michigan, Lake Charlevoix, downtown Charlevoix. Castle Farms is less than a mile away. If you like to fish, walk across the street to a small lake.
Hike the Mt. McSauba recreational dunes park (4 miles from cabin) to Lake Michigan or relax on one of our beautiful beaches. We are a four-season area, located close to natural areas with trails for hiking, winter snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. Stroll through downtown Charlevoix while enjoying a local treat from an ice cream shop. There are many casual or fine dining restaurants within the downtown area. Check out the Charlevoix schedule for summer festivals and free concerts! Take a "Mushroom House" tour to view the iconic Earl Young homes in the area. The Charlevoix library is a special place for all ages. Enjoy the views of the harbor from a bench in the park or walk the pier to Charlevoix's historical lighthouse as the bridge opens for boat traffic.
The cabin is on a popular biking route. Bring your bikes! A walk out the back door you will find a Maple Woods with an outdoor fire pit and grill. An indoor gas fireplace adds warmth to living space. Petoskey, Boyne City and Harbor Springs are 30 minutes away. Traverse City, Sleeping Bear dunes National Park and Mackinaw are close enough for a day trip. Wildlife is abundant on the property. We do not allow pets or smoking on the property. Please check reviews from previous guests for more information. We pride ourselves on the great reviews our guests have given us.

Lovely spot for a getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at the “shed!” Lilly was very welcoming, ensured the place was in pristine condition, gave us great suggestions, and clearly communicated throughout the process. She anticipated our every need and we’d love to stay here again next time we’re in the area!

We loved the location and the serenity of the cabin. Only thing I'd say needs tending to are a few dead bugs under windows, however being up north and in the woods, you have to expect that. I loved the property and Julie was so kind. We will definitely want to come back!

A fantastic stay! The cabin was super clean, peaceful and beautiful. Lilly was kind and helpful. We enjoyed our short hikes on the large property, seeing deer, woodpeckers and toads. The campfire was perfect every evening for making s'mores and relaxing under the stars. The beds were comfortable. Great location for exploring Charlevoix, Petoskey state park, canoeing on the Jordan and shopping. We would stay again!

4th of July weekend in Charlevoix

We spent 4th of July weekend at this beautiful newer home in Charlevoix. Attended a wedding at the Castle and this home’s location was perfect for both the wedding and visiting downtown Charlevoix. This house had everything you would need and was extremely clean. Lilly was a wonderful host to deal! We will return and highly recommend this property.
Peaceful setting!

Delightful and Relaxing

The owner was friendly, quick to respond, and very sweet to talk to. My entire family enjoyed their stay, and the kids loved the swings! My mom who is 80 , loved the peace and quiet, yet it wasn’t too far from town. It was an excellent place to stay and very clean!

Fun Cozy, & Family Friendly!

This tiny home was very nice to stay in with my 4 year old. There were tons of kids movies, little toys, and the loft was super fun for her to sleep in. If we come to this area again, we’ll definitely stay here. The owners were also very accessible and helpful.
