Newly remodeled, this home has a gorgeous open concept kitchen, perfect for cooking on the beautiful summer nights. Imagine the sliding glass door open with the smell of the fresh Northern Michigan air breezing through - or snuggling up with a blanket next to the wood-stove during the winter months.

On the main floor, you will find the first bedroom, den (additional bedroom), living room, two bathrooms, and a washer and dryer. Upstairs there is a loft where you will locate the other two bedrooms. Just outside and down the driveway is the Boyne River, perfect for fishing! You will find this home perfectly located with less than a 5-minute drive to Boyne Mountain Resort and just miles from Charlevoix or Petoskey. You and your family are bound to make great memories and get the true "Up North" experience.

This cottage is also perfectly located for soccer tournaments, lacrosse, etc. Great Wood-burning stove for the winter and central air for the summer.

Please note that all pets must be house and crate trained.

While we do our best to have the driveway plowed, salted and sanded during the winter months, a 4WD/AWD vehicle and/or winter tires may be necessary for full use of the driveway. Please contact us with any questions regarding this.

*Pets Allowed with a Non-Refundable Fee, charged separately if booking on a 3rd party site.

**A 2 or 3 night minimum may apply.

New Years 2023 visit

Review by Brad L.
The cabin was adorable. We would stay again. Close enough to Boyne mountain and Boyne city Waloon Lake and Petoskey to have dining options but also nice and quiet location to get away. Only small issue was cold water for washer did not work.

State HS Fishing Championship

Review by Brad P.
What a great place to have a group of Dads and their sons for the 2022 High School State Championship on Lake Charlevoix! This cabin was just as advertised and fit all 9 of us just fine. Extremely clean and had plenty of extras for cookouts after fishing all day. Will return if available next year! Great place.

Great location for Boyne Mountain

Review by Ron T.
Stayed here for the proximity to the ski mountain and for a dog friendly stay. Was clean and cozy. Some little things missing like a dish sponge and gas for the grill but overall a nice stay. If you like the older rustic cabin style with beautiful wooded views, this place will suit your needs.

Perfect for our get-a-way

Review by pat S.
We were extremely happy with our stay.What a lovely secluded property. WE were there for a wedding in East Jordan and a family reunion in Boyne City. We had our two adult daughters with us. It was so nice for us to get away when everyone else was partying and staying up late at the condo in BC. WE had our daughter drop us off, then they could go back to partying only 6 minutes away. We are in our 70s so it meant a lot to us to be able to get away from all the noise and get a good night's sleep. Great secluded locationThe property was clean and very efficient. The booking was easy and everyone I dealt with was corteous. The kitchen was supplied well although we didn't eat many meals there. The only suggestion I have is that you would repair the screens in the sliding door and windows, although we really didn't have many bugs. We visited Petoskey, Lavender Farms, Boyne City,East Jordan, and Charlevioux. We would definitely stay there again.

Great Get-Away

Review by Sally C.
Loved the cottage and the surrounding woods. Also happy with the proximity to the ski slopes, restaurants in town, Meijer grocery, etc. Enjoyed playing games, reading and watching movies in the main room with a fire going in the wood stove. It was very cozy. Also found the kitchen well stocked with everything we needed to prepare our meals. Thankful that we could include our dog on our vacation.

Great Escape

This was for our family reunion, close enough to other family members to say we could get together anytime, yet far enough away that we were able to spend time with our kids, grandkids without them being subject to the entire klan if we wanted.

Excellent location and woodsy retreat!

Review by Beth H.
We had a delightful and cozy Thanksgiving at The Perfect Escape. Enjoyed a daily walk just down the road and along a pristine river. The location was a great home base to explore Boyne City, Charlevoix, Petosky, and Harbor Springs. Renee from Northern Michigan Escapes welcomed us soon after we arrived and had been very helpful leading up to our stay with changing some reservation details. The rental company also has a very helpful app that alerted us to local weather and events. A delightful location and all reasonable amenities included. (Loved having the wood burning stove on some blustery, snowy days!) We are already planning a trip back.

Adorable Cottage for a family weekend

Our family absolutely loved staying here for a wedding in Petoskey. The six of us had more than enough room and our dogs loved it too. It made traveling far from home so much more comfortable than staying at a hotel, it felt like home! Every morning the view off the deck didn’t disappoint and at night the fire pit was very entertaining under the stars. The location was perfect and convenient with only a short drive to Petoskey, Lake Michigan, and downtown Boyne. The decor was very cool and artfully eclectic. Northern Michigan Escapes was great to work with, I had no worries once I booked this cottage and they give you a lot of information regarding your stay as it approaches. This cottage was clean, cute, convenient, cozy and somewhere we would definitely stay again, tell our friends and family about too!
