Beautiful Location on the River. Peaceful backyard
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2024
Beautiful historic home in downtown Boyne City. We were four couples so each of us had our own bedroom and bathroom. The view in the backyard of Boyne river and the fire pit for evening gatherings was absolutely perfect.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2024
12 of us comfortably stayed at the house for a week. Everything was as described. We had fun kayaking on the river, the kids played in the yard everyday, fished in the backyard and had a short walk to the downtown area.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2021
The backyard is beautiful and we loved using the kayaks, playground equipment, and fire pit. However, if you are looking for a serene setting, this is not it. There is a utility power plant on the other side of the river with bright lights at night and the noise off of Main Street is very loud. There is no privacy from either side of the neighbors. The house was okay. The back doors off of the master bedroom are very hard to lock. The hot water in the clawfoot was not working until my husband realized the valve was shut off due to a constant leak. There were no blinds or curtains in one of the bathrooms. And the soap dispenser in every bathroom was only filled half way. We are in a pandemic and to cheap out and only fill the soap half way is ridiculous to me. The kitchen is very dated and made cooking difficult. It is separate from the rest of the house and closed off. If you are a lover of older homes and don't mind the noise of the Main Street and lack of privacy, this would be a good house for you, but it wasn't our cup of tea.
