Indulge in the ultimate lakeside retreat with floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of Lake Charlevoix from the heart of Oyster Bay. Relax on the back deck as the lake glistens during golden hour, or head down to the private sugar sand beach for sunbathing, sandcastle building, and swimming in the shallow, child-friendly waters.

Make unforgettable memories at this waterfront oasis in Charlevoix, where every moment is filled with beauty and serenity. Please note: Water levels may vary year to year due to natural causes. While the private dock typically accommodates vessels up to 40 feet under ideal conditions, this season’s water levels are lower, and we recommend vessels between 16 and 30 feet for docking. Owners cannot be responsible for fluctuations in water level or any damage to vessels. If water levels are lower than average, boaters can anchor in the bay and dinghy in or dock their boat at the nearby Charlevoix Marina.

Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Michigan Vacation This is a beautiful private lake front home. The privacy is great! The beach and lake access are better than the pictures. Sitting on the deck, enjoying the view and having a camp fire on the beach were my favorite parts.There were a good amount of bath towels but no beach towels.Bring all of your kitchen supplies. Most homes I have rented have olive oil, cooking spray and dish washer soap. This house did not. There also was only one box of facial tissues in the house.The management company Vacasa was responsive to text but didn't have answers. They said they would notify the local team and then nothing would happen. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a33d27af-31bc-4192-9eb9-81478e15f5d5-1753813902541.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Amber L.

Jun 30, 2025 #### Stunning Lake Charlevoix Retreat – Perfect for Families and Groups! We had an incredible stay at this beautiful waterfront home on Oyster Bay! The view of Lake Charlevoix is absolutely breathtaking—whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning or enjoying a sunset in the evening, it never gets old. The location is ideal, tucked privately in Oyster Bay on Lake Charlevoix with plenty of space from neighboring properties, which made it feel peaceful and secluded. Yet it's just a short drive into downtown Charlevoix and close to all the best of Northern Michigan’s natural beauty and attractions—beaches, trails, golf courses, wineries, and more. One of the highlights of this home is the private full sand beach with zero-entry access to the Bay—perfect for kids to play safely, adults to wade in with ease and everyone to enjoy an evening bonfire. It was a big hit for everyone in our group! Inside, the house was immaculate and offered plenty of room to spread out. The central living space is open and inviting, great for gathering together after a day out, and the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need, plus a charming additional nook for casual meals or morning coffee. This place is ideal for families, guys golf trips, summer getaways, or even family reunions. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base and would absolutely stay here again! ##### Dave B. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cozy, Secluded, Year-Round Cabin Rental With A Hot Tub!](https://www.expedia.ca/Munising-Hotels-Cozy.h27265412.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Sault Ste.
