What guests think

At Charlevoix House - The Northside, guests consistently praise the warm, attentive host, walkable access to downtown, and comfortable, often spacious rooms, while noting that front-facing rooms can hear traffic and the historic property shows occasional wear.

Breakfast is widely appreciated for variety, quality, and thoughtful timing, and several reviews note convenient on-site parking. Accessibility can be challenging due to narrow stairs and entry steps; ground-floor rooms work better for limited mobility. Overall, expect a personable, low-key B&B experience in a classic house.

The room on the ground floor was convenient for my elderly parents. Terry, the hostess, was very kind and helpful. The steps into the house were challenging for my mother who is quite disabled. We were told that the owner is getting things under way to make a ramp.

Terri was a wonderful host! The continental breakfast was a great start to my day and had a good selection of food to choose from. The bed and breakfast has ample parking and it's a short walk to downtown Charlevoix. The street traffic can be very loud in the morning. So if you plan on sleeping in I would suggest booking one of the rooms farthest from the front of the house.

Terri was a wonderful host. The breakfast was good and the room was very spacious with a comfortable bed. The stairs are narrow so keep that in mind. If mobility is an issue, check to see if a first floor room is available. There is a window air conditioner in the room. Parking is very close.

Teri is a great hostess. She was always available if anything was needed. The beds were very comfortable. Breakfast had a good variety. I would suggest adding a shelf in the shower area in the Hemingway rooms so there's a place for shampoo and soap, etc. Overall a very good experience.

We booked very last minute and Terri made us feel welcome from the start. Our room was large, clean, very comfortable and within walking distance to everything we wanted to do. We really enjoyed chatting with Terri, she was like visiting a relative😊Morning breakfast was fun, we chatted with the other couple and shared ideas and stories. This was our first time staying in a bed and breakfast and if they are all like this, we will definitely make it a habit. Thank you for the wonderful stay!!

We enjoyed our stay at this bed-and-breakfast very much. The house manager was delightful and provided anything that we needed. Her breakfast was just perfect. The only comment that I would add is The building needs some upgrades as far as linens may be nicer towels, and more renovation on the building itself

I loved my room. It was super clean and cute. The only drawback would be that it is off the main area directly. The best part of my stay was my hostess, Terry. She is awesome and I would definitely come back here if I am ever so lucky.

It was a Relaxing/Amazing Trip. A 10 min walk to everything downtown Charlevoix. Room was immaculate, “Great Lakes.” The Property Mgr. Terri was terrific, she always had a beautiful spread for breakfast, and she knows the area well, and always had great suggestions for restaurants, shopping and sight seeing. I have already blocked another week in April, 2025.

The hostess was very friendly and made a nice breakfast. Felt very welcome into the home. Unfortunately the bed was quite worn, with a dip in the middle of the mattress which made it uncomfortable. There was an air conditioner unit in the window but it wasn't sealed to the outdoors and there were 100 little gnats gathering on the ceiling. Aside from those couple of negatives, the place was fine.

Nice location near downtown area of Charlevoix. The road in front is a tad busy, but not too bad. The room we booked was advertised as one king sized bed and one twin bed. Two guys traveling, but wanted separate beds. The "twin" bed is not really an actual bed, rather a small chair that rolls out. Adequate, but not a bed as advertised. The inn keeper, Terry was exceptionally nice and accommodating. Breakfast the next morning was hearty and enjoyable.
