Great stay
We love visiting Charlevoix and staying at the Hilltop Cottage. It is always clean and well stocked with the necessities. You can easily walk into town and enjoy the beaches, dining, and shopping.

Gorgeous location
Beautiful lake house, loved walking to the beach and into town. Perfect for our family (4 kids, ages 6 - 17) had all the beach supplies we needed. We also loved having coffee on the porch every morning.

Cute Cottage, great location!
We loved staying here! We were in town for a wedding and didn’t have a lot of down time so it was great exploring in the pockets of time we had! Literally 5 minute walk or drive. Comfy and clean!

Rent this property
We loved this house in Charlevoix! The location was great, we could walk to downtown and to Michigan beach. The house was clean with plenty of room for my husband, daughter, son-in-law and 22 month old grandson. Beautiful back yard! Would definitely stay here again.

Hilltop Cottage is our new Happy Place!
I have only the best things to say about our stay at Hilltop Cottage. The entire experience exceeded any and all expectations! Hilltop Cottage had everything we needed (and then some), the location is out-of-this world and the host made the check-in/check-out process extremely simple and straightforward. The house has so much charm and truly felt like a home-away-from-home for our few days there. We thoroughly enjoyed playing board games, drinking coffee on the porch, campfires at night and being able to be downtown in a matter of minutes. Hilltop Cottage is our new Happy Place and we cannot wait to book our next trip!

Easy walk to downtown
The sun porch is a great place to enjoy morning coffee. Very clean and a convenient location. Several restaurants and shops withing easy walking distance and just a short drive to a very nice beach. Upstairs bathroom is a bit small.

Amazing location
We had such a great time at this cottage for our week in Charlevoix. The location is amazing and the backyard was so great for our kids to play and run around in. The house was great as we spent a lot of time on the front porch and outback. Everything else was just what we needed for our week. We look forward to returning!!

Hilltop Cottage Marathon weekend
Perfect location and home for families and small groups. We had 4 adults and 3 children (ages 4-14). The home is comfortable with plenty of space for meals and games in the dinning room and outside. We used the grill on site, lemonade stand and backyard. It is a short walk to the beach, grocery store, playground and shopping downtown. This was our second year staying at Hilltop and we will definitely come back next year.

Lovely lakeside town
I selected this property to stay at during the Charlevoix race weekend. This was the first time I had been to Charlevoix. It was a perfect location not only for race proximity, but also just a walk across the drawbridge to stores and restaurants. Our group would love to come back and stay at this property again. There was more than enough room for our families to enjoy this time together.

Everything we hoped for and more!
I was the star of our sister's trip having found this gem in Charlevoix. We could easily walk to everything - shopping, coffee, the beach, etc. We loved to walk to the bridge and watch the sunset. A great base to visit Mackinac Island, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Petoskey. But the best part was getting back to the cottage for wine and talk on the front porch. Would book again in a minute!

Family vacation
We had a lovely stay at this house. The location is perfect for walking into town and the beach. Our teens loved the autonomy its proximity offered them. I was concerned that it was going to be too hot in the upstairs bedrooms but fans were provided and positioned near the AC vent, which kept it cool. Towels, beach towels, paper products, hand and dish soap were provided which was helpful. I loved spending time on the front porch in the morning and evenings. The house was equipped with everything that we needed. Thanks for sharing your home with us. We fell in love with Charlevoix!

Wonderful Experience
Great house with a view directly down the road from downtown Charlevoix. Quick walk to anything in town and enjoyed the drawbridge with my 4 year old daughter who loved the boats. Quick trip to multiple beaches and many things to do in the area. Loved staying here and would strongly consider returning for future family vacations.

Great Charlevoix location
Great location to visit Charlevoix. Walking distance to everything you need - beach, restaurants, grocery store, ice cream, coffee shops - or lounge in the shaded backyard or people watch in the front sitting room. Very tidy and plenty of room. Top of the list for our next visit.

Great location!
We had a great stay here. House was in a great location to walk to downtown and the beach. A/c worked great. Porch was so nice to enjoy morning coffee and late night drinks. Owners were easy to contact and quick to remedy a small issue we had with the bathroom. Kotchen was well stocked. Would stay here again!
