This little cottage may look small but WOW. What a beautiful place to relax for a spell. My wife and I could not of been happier. The owner is on site if there are any issues. We had none. We were welcomed with fresh flowers, chocolates and a bottle of wine. The cottage was immaculate and had everything we could possibly need for our stay. The surrounding area is just beautiful. And they allowed me to bring my dog, huge plus for me. Want to say Thank you to Nick for the opportunity to stay there.

Oh gosh, this is our third lengthy visit and it is a treasured place. Our hosts, Nick and Joe are so hospitable and our welcome gifts of wine, flowers, luxe chocolates and roasted nuts are perfect after a long trip. The cottage is awesome and the kitchen has all the basics. The view! There are no words. Just soak up the beauty of Lake Michigan from your chairs around the fire pit and grill a steak on the Weber grill. We plan to return.

Cottage was clean and comfortable. Well maintained grounds and the view of Lake Michigan was awesome, especially at sunset. Close to downtown Charlevoix and beaches and a short distance to Petoskey. Nick and Joe are great hosts and available for anything you need. Wine and snacks upon arrival much appreciated. Gayle O.

This very unique cottage is a great place to stay for easy access to all that Charlevoix and Petoskey have to offer. The cottage is very unique and has great views of Lake Michigan. Downtown Charlevoix is 5 minutes away, and Fisherman’s Island state park is less than 15 minutes away. Nick was an excellent host and even left snacks, wine, and flowers. A+, would stay again!

The field stone Earl Young cottage was absolutely as charming as the picture depicts! The grounds were well maintained and the view out across Lake Michigan is breathtaking. If looking for a relaxing stay apart from the normal regimented schedule of work, this location & cottage will provide nourishment for your body, mind, and soul. I hope to return next year!

The moment you walked in the door you knew you were stepping back in time. The cottage is adjacent to the big house and has a fabulous view of Lake Michigan. The owners Nick and Joe were very easy to talk to and they left Lindor chocolates, wine and flowers, how classy is that? We also had breakfast at My Grandmothers Table the breakfast was delicious also, this restaurant is owned by Nick and Joe! There is the Mushroom House Tours by Edith, we have been on this tour 5 times and we have learned so much every time, the cottage in on the tour. We had a great week at the cottage and is close to downtown Charlevoix so you can shop and eat! What more can you ask for except for the draw bridge where you can see the tall boats go into Pine River and out to Lake Michigan. Thanks again Nick and Joe!

This wonderfully located and well maintained mushroom cottage was a true gem to stay at. A short distance from downtown made the location convenient to get to restaurants and shops. The landscape view of the lake made for a nice touch while entering and existing the house.

The estate was beautiful. Our stay was relaxing. Being accross the street from the lake, our dogs got to swim in the lake. I cannot think of a better place to take our vacation.

This was a gift to my parents. They have always loved the Charlevoix area and admired the stone homes on the Lakeshore. We were excited to find this cozy little cottage available to give them as a gift for Christmas. They loved their stay and left relaxed and refreshed.

I've stayed here every year since it became a rental 5 years, so far. You can't beat the view and it's about a mile to town.
