Lakefront home on Oyster Bay w/ private dock, beach, fire pit, & hammock

The Pearl of Oyster Bay

Escape to the stunning shores of Lake Charlevoix at this exquisite house, situated on over 5 acres with 230 feet of frontage at the geographical center of Oyster Bay. This property truly is the Pearl of Oyster Bay, offering unparalleled views and a private dock suitable for vessels between 16 and 30 feet in length.* Just a short 3-mile drive to downtown Charlevoix, and within easy reach of Petoskey, Boyne City, Harbor Springs, Walloon Lake, Lake Charlevoix Public Beach, Lake Michigan, and more, this location is ideal for exploring all that northern Michigan has to offer.

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. In the evenings, gather around the beach firepit for cozy campfires under the stars, or unwind in the hammock with a good book and soak in the tranquility of nature.

This house boasts an audiophile indoor/outdoor sound system to enhance your experience, along with a range of amenities including a jetted tub, wood-burning fireplace, gas grill, and more. Whether you're sipping cocktails on the deck, observing wildlife from the adjacent nature preserve, or exploring the nearby golf courses and state parks, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Whatever the season, there is no shortage of activities. From biking along the Little Traverse Wheelway to wine tasting at Blu Dot Winery, sunset views in downtown Charlevoix, and teeing off at premier golf courses, to skiing at Boyne Mountain, Boyne Highlands, Nubs Nob, and Shanty Creek, the possibilities for adventure and relaxation are endless. 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.

Book your stay today and experience the best of northern Michigan!

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.
