After a long day of strenuous vacationing, get a sound sleep on new memory foam mattresses in the three bedrooms (also with “Alexa”) that fit 10 comfortably in beds. There are three full baths, no waiting. The energy efficient central air and furnace ensure the perfect temperature inside regardless of the weather outside. Cooking with gas Like a home-cooked meal?

There’s even an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach or a morning run. Handling laundry during your stay will be both easy and convenient. The full-size front-loading washer and dryer are located on the second floor. Rooms with a view Watch Lake Michigan's waves break from the living room, kitchen and bedrooms. Along with the water views, you’ll get the sun in the morning and the moon at night from the front deck and balcony. We guarantee a glorious sunset every night, weather permitting. You may even see the International Space Station passing overhead. Location, location, location This spot is special, one of the best for enjoying all of Charlevoix and surrounding areas. If you want sun and sand, step out the front door and walk along the Pine River Channel, only 150 feet away. From there, head for a short 300-foot stroll to the beach and lighthouse on Lake Michigan. Wave to the passing catamarans, cruisers or passengers on the ferry as it leaves to Beaver Island. To get to town, head east along the channel path. It’s just a 10-minute jaunt to Charlevoix’s business district. You’ll find unique boutiques, casual and fine dining, pubs, gourmet food and wine shops, craft beers, live music, concerts, comedy, tours and more. The great outdoors For more activity in your life, take your pick. Hike the trails at Mt. McSauba, or put your mettle to the pedals and bike along the 26-mile paved Little Traverse Wheelway. Charter a fishing trip or sail Lake Michigan. Plus there’s golfing, kayaking, birding and much more. In the winter, put on your skis, (downhill or cross-country) strap on your snowshoes, lace up your ice skates. Who could ask for anything more? Everything you could need or want is here or just minutes away. Daytime activities, nighttime entertainment. Take your pick and go. Then after it all, sit back, relax and enjoy the lightness of being in Charlevoix.

Returned for our 2nd stay, and loved it just as much as the first visit! The water view and proximity to downtown can't be beat - best of both worlds! Home is well appointed and super clean.

Visited Charlevoix for a wedding at Castle Farms. The Palmer house location had a water view out all front windows plus the sidewalk along the channel allowed easy walk-ability to town as well as guests who may be staying at the hotels and condos to walk to our rental.
The house is clean and comfortable, open floor plan on the first floor, large deck in the front and large patio in the back. The owners are not new to renting as everything is easy to use and to maintain cleanliness.
The small parking lot between the house and water does have lights at night but can easily be blocked with the bedroom shades. The lot also adds extra parking and room to the rental.
This rental met all expectations and helped us have a great wedding weekend.

We couldn’t have been more happy with our stay. The location was beautiful with great views of the lake. The home was decorated so nice with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We loved that we could relax, make dinner and enjoy a beautiful bonfire after dinner. It is walking distance to town and very clean. Thanks to the owner Tim who was always very responsive.

We have been vacationing in Charlevoix for thirty years.
It’s become our home away from home. Our family has outgrown the hotel we use to stay at. We found this Vrbo and it was spacious, clean, quiet, steps from the beach, and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. Tim was very quick in responding to any help we needed.

This was our second time staying at Tim’s beautiful home! The home, layout and location are perfect! We had a fabulous time staying there with our four children! We especially appreciated the very well equipped kitchen, extra beach towels, beach wagon, high chair/pack and play and shampoo/body wash in the bathrooms. Tim is a fantastic host and his communication is excellent! He promptly addressed our questions and we appreciated that so much! We hope to be back next year!

Overall a very good experience renting with Tim and staying at the Palmer House. The Palmer house location was superb overlooking part of Lake Michigan and the channel leading into Lake Charlevoix. The place was as described! And when there was an issue with the door Tim was very quick to resolve.

We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful home on Lake Michigan and the adjoining Lake Charlevoix! Home was perfect and just gorgeous. The location was amazing as we could walk to everything we needed along with a short drive to area towns (Petoskey, Bellaire and Traverse City). Tim was very courteous and prompt in his hospitality needs or checkins. Views were even better than pictured. We will be hopefully be back soon!

The house was absolutely beautiful. A nice welcome basket was provided when we arrived. Very clean, spacious and had anything you may need. Great location, less than a 3 minute walk to the beach and less than 5 minutes to downtown. Views off the front porch looking out to the lake we’re amazing. We will definitely try to book again.

The Palmer House was the perfect place for our family. Tim was a great host - the welcome basket and "welcome to the house" message were so thoughtful - gave me peace of mind that if we needed to reach him for any reason, he would be available. This house has a beautiful and spacious front porch - a great place to hangout and watch the boats on the canal - we could even see the large boats from inside the house! The house had everything we wanted - the main floor has a well-stocked beautiful kitchen with counter bar and stools. The door from the kitchen goes to the backyard grilling and dining space with plenty of seating around the fire pit/chimney. The spacious dining area is open to the large living room with very comfortable chairs and couches. We even turned on the gas fireplace on one of the cool nights - worked perfectly. We loved having a full bath on the main floor near the kitchen and back door - very convenient for a large group. The layout of the second floor was perfect - the three large bedrooms (very comfortable beds/bedding and large closets with shelves and plenty of hangers) are spaced out down the hall with a laundry closet and two full bathrooms. All of the bathrooms were fully stocked - from soap and shampoo to plenty of fluffy towels. Two of the bedrooms have sliding doors that open to the second floor balcony - a beautiful spot to sit and watch the boats coming and going.
This wonderful house and ideal location in Charlevoix make it the perfect vacation rental - we look forward to staying here again!

Amazing Vacation Experience!
This vacation home exceeded our expectations! The house and grounds were spotless!! Both had everything we needed. But it was the little touches that made it nice. From having enough hangers in every closet to having a wagon to pull provided beach chairs to the lake...convenient and appreciated! Large screen, smart TV, gas fireplace, fire pit in lighted backyard and all high-end appliances and bedding made this home the best ever!

Amazing House!! Great Views
This property was just amazing from when you first arrive. The downstairs is very spacious for a large group, and our group loved the welcome basket. The fireplace inside was nice to enjoy in the evenings. The back patio was nice for grilling out and the front porch was a great social space. The surprise was how handy the Amazon Alexa devices in every room were, very nice feature.

I had my Bachelorette party this weekend and this for was perfect! The house itself is adorable, spacious, very clean, with cute backyard space. It is walking distance to the beach and into town, with views of the water from almost every room. Amazing communication with property owner the whole time. He even left us a little welcome basket full of goodies when we arrived. We will definitely be booking this house again for future visits.

Nicely appointed home in beautiful setting
Couldn't ask for a nicer home. Modern home nestled into a quiet nature like setting with a wonderful view of Lake Michigan. Loved the rain fall showers. Easy walk to downtown Charlevoix. Owner checked in with us shortly after we arrived to see if we needed anything. Great for a family.

Can't wait to go back!
