There is no better place than Northern Michigan in late July and August. We have been to Boyne City many times. Staying at this condo was FANTASTIC. The 2 bedroom condo is very simply furnished, clean and attractive. It has everything you need for an easy and enjoyable vacation. THE LOCATION CAN NOT BE BEAT! This is better and more economical than many Up North vacations. The condo has a pool overlooking lake Charlevoix and access to the lake, which is incredible and beautiful. The walk into town is short and direct. In Boyne City, there are enough nice restaurants and shops to keep people entertained. My son loved the short walk to the 2 ice cream and candy shops in town. The condo is also directly across the street from Glen's, a very good vacation community grocery store. The farmers market held twice a week is also an easy walk. You do not have to get back in the car, once you unpack in this Boyne City condo. Boyne City continues to improve. Our favorite gourmet food shop is Lake Street Market. You should not miss their scones, cheeses, sandwiches or wine selection. We also rented jet skis for the day. They were delivered to us at the public dock right next to the condo. Again, incredibly convenient. Although it was expensive to rent the jet skis, it was well worth it for the memories of my 2 "almost adult" children (16 and 20), jetting around the lake-wearing life jackets and being careful- of course!!!
I would highly recommend this condo. For the price, it is a fantastic vacation. We will return soon.
The condominium was well maintained and photos are an accurate representation. The photos do not do the beautiful lake view justice. It was also super to be on the first floor. It is easy to walk out to the pretty grassy area, the pool and the lake. A grill is available, although we did not use it because our friends brought one. The owner was helpful and everything was handled very well.
