Beachfront vacation rentals in Emmet County

This stone cottage is absolutely adorable. Everything you need for your stay is ready: comfy bed with super soft linens, clean towels, soaps, coffee and maker, and the list goes on and on. Nick greeted us as we arrived and was very hospitable. He left us a kind, welcome letter, fresh flowers, chocolates, and wine! The cable tv and WiFi worked perfectly too. But THE VIEW and LOCATION are amazing! It could not get better! Beautiful lawn, stone walls, and a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan. And it’s literally a 2 minute walk to cross the street and rock hunt or walk the beach! The neighborhood homes are mostly stone and historic-so beautiful. This place is peaceful and serene, and we will be back! Thank you, Nick. We had a great spring getaway! We’d love to return in the summer.

Updated decor, very clean, great communication. Loved the view and fire pit.

Our week at Brian‘s house turned out even better than we hoped. The house was lovely and very well equipped. Lake Walloon was incredible and we all enjoyed the boat.

Nice house on a peaceful lake with great views of hills. Enjoyed seeing eagles, king fisher, osprey and many other birds. Close to Petoskey but far enough away if want the quiet. VPNoMi was proactive and easy to communicate with prior to and during our stay.

Thomas responded promptly to all of our questions. The cottage was the perfect place to get away from it all, and on a hot day, the breeze from the lake made it feel as cool as if it was air conditioned! As a heads up to other renters: the lake is very shallow so take it easy when you pick up speed, but the lake connects to The Black Hole Nature Preserve and then to the Inland Waterway via Crooked Lake so there’s plenty to explore if you have a boat. Our dog hung out in the water all day living his best life and it was easy enough to keep him on the porch using a baby gate until he was dry enough to come into the rest of the house. The bunk beds were particularly roomy and great for all ages!!

Beautiful and peaceful location. The lake is shallow for a while so it's great for kids. You can see the sunset from the yard as well. Close to Mackinaw City/Mackinac Island, Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and more.

We have a wonderful time in Charlevoix. We just wanted to get out of town and this was a perfect weekend get away. It was beautiful this time of year right down town. We enjoyed morning coffee at the condo and we had everything we needed during our stay. We will be back!

Beautiful location with lots of things to do close by. Very clean and beautiful home and Christy was a great host.

It was our second year in #24 for a terrific northern Michigan golf weekend in the same complex as an owner. The place is perfect for it. We’ll be back again next year!

Can't say enough good things about our stay and hosts. The only thing that would prevent me from coming back is buying a place of my own in the same complex! Roger and Mary were proactive and responsive from pre-booking through our stay. I am a clean freak, to say the least, and found the condo in great shape. We took full advantage of the kitchen and every utensil, plate, and cookware I took out was perfectly clean. We had two families stay - 4 adults and 4 kids - and everyone was comfortable with plenty of space. Roger and Mary saw we were bringing real little ones, and left out pristinely clean crib and pack & play, sheets included. We stayed during winter, and enjoyed all that was nearby! Nubs Nob just 10 minutes drive. We got to XC Ski right out the condo door into the neighboring nature preserve trails and along Lake Michigan. The condo complex indoor pool was great afternoon entertainment. Everything matched the description, so it was easy to plan. Thank you!

Thanks for a great stay..

Great condo - even brighter, cheerier, and roomier than pictured! Condo was clean, beds were comfortable, lots of linens and beach towels, games, well stocked kitchen.... and the view of the lake is fantastic! There were no neighbors when we were there so it was very quiet. Just minutes to Nub's Nob and the Highlands. Lots of choices for restaurants near by and good grocery store nearby. Host was ultra available and accommodating with lots of instructional / helpful signage throughout the condo, lots of extras!!! Thanks for a great stay! Looking forward to going back!!

It is an absolutely beautiful setting! Right on the water. Loved the Murphy beds.

The location can’t be beat, had a perfect weekend filled with beautiful sunsets and walks on the beach

This was a perfect place for us! The location and amazing view made this a wonderful stay. We had not even left our kids were asking when we could come back. We saw loons, geese, ducks, swan, and a bald eagle while hanging out by our fire! Could not ask for anymore than what this property provided!

We enjoyed our stay at the boathouse. It is our third visit and it never disappoints. The boathouse was clean and cozy. Pam and Dave are lovely hosts.

We enjoyed our stay. This room was perfect for a few night stay, had basic kitchen amenities, Roku worked well, couch and lighting gave it cozy feel. Room was very clean, good use of small space. Great location. Communicative hosts. We would stay again.

Everything about our stay was perfect! The cottage exceeded our expectations, the setting was private, and the view was spectacular. Our family wants to make this an annual tradition!

This property is so nice for families - with the larger house and the small cabin both, it was perfect. The space was clean and had more amenities than was mentioned in the listing. Jeanine was a good communicator and shared all the necessary information. The only thing I would have liked to know is that the water is across the road and down a very long flight of stairs. I wasn't familiar with the area, maybe if I was I would have known that! But with little ones it was a bit much for them and we didn't end up spending time at the water like I'd hoped. But the view was spectacular! I also loved that the property is out of town a few miles so even though the weekend traffic was bad in town, we felt away from all that. A lovely stay, thank you, Jeanine!

Amazing place to stay! Can’t wait to go back! It was such a pleasure to meet host Judy and hear her tell of her family’s fascinating history of this gorgeous property on Lake Michigan. She is quick to answer any questions you may have…extremely accommodating. While she stays in a smaller abode onsite, the environment still feels private and secluded. The views, indescribable! Mother Nature speaks to you constantly, sometimes in a whisper and other times as a roar. But remember, you will be in the Wilderness Park so be prepared (as Judy says) for a pesky pest or two. We really only experienced them (biting black flies) one evening while collecting rocks along the beach. We found our natural oils repellent worked best. The cottage interior is a delightful eclectic French Country, comfy and cozy!! Every corner is decorated with such uniqueness and interesting flair. There are plenty of areas of the home to gather together or to sit quietly in peace. It is truly a VERY special place!! 💖

I love this cabin. The cabin is clean and comfortable. It is stocked with anything you would need for a comfortable stay. I come back here every year because it is so beautiful, peaceful, and cozy.
