Overlooking Boyne City - Great location!

JulieRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Perfect stay. Location was ideal. The apartment is large and comfortable. I was thrilled to stay in an Airbnb home that wasn't absolutely inundated in chemical fabric softeners and fragrances. This home was clean and did not have any chemical overwhelm. Excellent. Would stay again.

Jane & Zach's Guest Suite

SaraRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We very much enjoyed our getaway on Stevens Lake. The setting of this house is peaceful, quiet, and perfect for unwinding. We loved listening to the loon on the lake and our son had a great time down by the lake. The house itself was clean and comfortable and more than adequate for our needs. We arrived late at night on a foggy night, but Jane's directions were perfectly clear so we had no trouble locating this out of the way spot. Would highly recommend.

Cypress Street Escape

DeborahRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Place was beautiful and very clean. Newer complex. Would stay here again when in the area. It is about a 20 minute walk to Front Street. Location is good if heading out to the Dunes or other sites. Linda was very responsive.

Attic Studio

BrendanRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Right on Main Street, just a couple minute walk to the heart of downtown Leland. The perfect home base for relaxing in between beach walks, swimming, shopping, and eating. The attic was larger than pictures showed! There was pretty much everything you’d need to feel comfortable. Nicolle was very inviting and easy to communicate with. Hopefully we’ll be back again!

Crystal Lake Gem 2 15 mins to Crystal Mountain.

JillianRating, 5 starstoday
Our second winter ski vacation at Don and Denise’s. Wonderful hosts that truly go out of their way to help their guests. Their space is very comfortable with beautiful view of Crystal Lake and close to all the ski trails of Crystal mountain. A perfect up north get away for our family. All the amenities and games for the kids, with a hot tub to soak in after a fun day on the slopes. We plan to be back next season.

Beautiful Betsie Riverfront home

RyanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We loved our stay at the cabin! It was clean and inviting and we immediately felt comfortable. The area is quiet and peaceful with the river a short walk in the backyard. There’s another rental cabin next to this cabin but it was empty for most of our stay. We went skiing at crystal mountain and it’s only about 8 minutes away. We’d love to come back!

Waterfront Cabin Spider Lake Traverse City Pets Ok

LailaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Angela and Jason were just terrific Hosts! They were very responsive and easy going! Our stay felt more like a grounding retreat! The amenities and shared spaces were perfect for small groups. My favorite spot was the wooden swing at sunrise with a cup of coffee in hand and my warm throw. That view is just so beautiful!! It was exactly what the kids and i needed after a crazy week of going back to school! My boys loved kayaking. They packed their fishing gear and set off first thing in the am. We loved the pontoon as well! It was nice to take out the whole family on it as the kiddos enjoyed the tube! We docked at the sand bar and the kids got to swim in 2feet of pristine water! After soaking up the sun, we came in to bbq off the deck and later enjoyed s'mores around the bonfire. We were mesmerized by the stars in the sky! There were so many of them! I could get used to Waking up in the morning to a view like that! We will definitely be visiting again!

Lake Charlevoix, Boyne City Condo

CherylRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We thoroughly enjoyed out stay in this gorgeously updated condo with a lake view. Patty and Al are friendly and responsive and gave us terrific recommendations for dining, sight-seeing, and making the most of our stay. The condo itself is lakeside and the many windows offer lovely views - both sunrise and sunset. Downtown restaurants and gift shops in Boyne City are just a short walk away along the waterfront, passing parks and boat launches along the way. We visited summertime but it's perfectly situated for skiers as well.

Downtown w/Hot tub, on Front St w/ Bay view! 3

AbbyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our time at Mikes condo in Traverse. It’s a wonderful location and walkable to pretty much everything downtown. The condo was spotlessly clean, that’s a biggie for me, and this was the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever been in. We loved our time and the great view of the lake, thank you!

Glen Arbor Waterfront Condo - Great Lakes 43

DanaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Mandy was great right from the start. I was frantically looking for a house that could accommodate a family of 6 while still giving everyone their space, when I came across the listing I was so excited, but dates were not in my favor in regards to availability. I reached to to Mandy and booked moments later. We were able to check in beforehand which just gets vacation going sooner than later! The view from the second you walk in the door is gorgeous! All rooms had plenty of space for your own items, I am one that unpacks even for 2 nights and love drawers and hangers LOL. The only thing, and I might have not seen it correctly is that the twin bed room and Queen bed room are swapped. I thought the Queen room had the full bath, but my brother, SIL and baby were just fine with the 1/2 bath. Definitely on the list for next year's adventure!

Vacation Lakefront Condo at the Landings Boyne Mi

LynnRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Our stay at Rick's place for an extended wedding weekend was perfect. Clean and perfect location! Easy to check in and out. Beautiful location although the weather was truly "fall" and we didn't get to enjoy some of the wonderful outdoor spaces. Overall, we recommend this condo for a beautiful Boyne City stay.
