Penny's Place Near the Lake- Quiet Rural House, Conviently located with big yard
Welcome to Penny's Place near the llake! A quiet house in a rural setting 5 minutes outside of Charlevoix. A beautiful and calm lake is across the street. This lake is great for fishing or kayaking. Across the street there is bike path with beautiful scenery. We do have wifi!
Penny's Place is 3 bedroom and 1 bath home. Inside it is spacious with lots of natural light during the day. Through out the house are a variety of unique knick-knacks and houseplants Penny had aquired throughout her life. There is a fully functional kitchen with dining room table. The living room is cozy and perfect for board games.
It is located 15 minutes from Boyne City, 30 minutes from East Jordan, and 15 minutes from Petoskey.
We do have security cameras on the front and back entrance to ensure property safety and guests' safety.
We do have an A/C window units in the kitchen and master bedroom. Then we have fans available throughout the property.
This cottage was so beautiful and so cozy. The area is so nice. They provided everything in the house that we could have possibly needed. Renters were absolutely FABULOUS to deal with and answered our questions very promptly. We cant wait to come back!!
We really enjoyed our stay! This property was very clean. It is rural but on a very busy road. There is a paved walking/bicycle path right across the road! Blackout/insulated curtains would make a significant difference in decreasing sound and heat from the windows. We enjoyed the home and would stay again. The home is minutes from every thing we enjoy in Charlevoix.
The property was just as described. We were in town for a wedding. It was not over priced like the in town properties but was close enough to easily spend a good amount of time in town. The walking trail across the road was perfect too!
Cozy grandmaâs house, everything works, nothing flashy but a decent place to retreat to and regroup while exploring the area. The mattressâs are the weakest link.
Just had a one night stay with girlfriends. Beds were comfy and we loved all the house plants throughout the house. The host was amazing at responding quickly to communication. House is perfectly situated between charlevoix and petosky and wineries are close as well!
Perfect distance for everything Charlevoix and Petoseky
We used the house to crash while we explored Charlevoix and Petoskey. Exactly what I wanted for going up North to spend time away from the city. Fans in every room. Couches were very comfortable. Decorations around the house were homely.
We stayed here with friends to attend a wedding in Petosky. The property was much like advertised. The bathroom sink faucet needs attention as the water is not flowing well. The bedroom windows would benefit from blinds and outside furniture would be nice so guests could sit outside to visit. We appreciated the clear and responsive communication from the host. Also, having coffee already onsite was a nice perk. Thank you for an enjoyable weekend!
Penny's on the Lake is a misnomer. The lake across the busy street is hidden by trees and is clearly marked private property.
The faucet in the bathroom sink has been locked to only allow a dribble of water (landlord told us this). This made our 3 week stay extremely inconvenient.(landlord said he may fix this next year)
The bed was very old, sagging in the middle, with squeaky, bouncy springs.The landlord gave us a foam topper but it was still not a comfortable bed.
When we arrived, every cupboard in the kitchen was full. To make space for our food, it was necessary to unload several cabinets into bags on the floor.
The towels are old and very thin. Bring your own.
This is a family home which has an accumulation of clutter and overgrown plants. It is in sad need of some tender loving care!
This place had such a relaxing feel to it. We felt right at home here. Beds were comfortable. Having games for the guest was a brilliant idea.
Thank you again for letting us stay!
Easy to tell this is a well loved house, not just a quick ikea-stocked property. Love all of the house plants, they look wonderfully cared for. Easy access, roomy, quiet, comfortable, everything we could want. A bit of decor on the mailbox would have helped finding it, but it still wasnât difficult. Everyone had a great time, incredibly thoughtful to leave some toys, the youngest loved that and we loved that he was busy playing. Maybe bring a couple extra blankets when you stay.
Overall would definitely recommend: comfortable, clean, safe, and well lit.
