Welcome To Charlevoix Haven, Charlevoix's Premier In-Town Vacation Rental

Charlevoix bed and breakfast
Welcome to Charlevoix Haven!
From the moment you walk in the door, we want you to feel at home...
From the moment you have to leave, we want you to look forward to returning...


Charlevoix Haven is a lovingly restored 5-bedroom home on a quiet street of elegant older homes adjacent to downtown Charlevoix, located one short block to downtown events, parks, restaurants, shopping, movies, and city marina. It has been furnished with a cozy mix of antiques, cottage, rustic and wicker for an at-home, up-North feel.

NEW for 2009: Charlevoix's crown jewel, East Park, will be in operation for the full season following a $12 million renovation. The new East Park features striking hand-laid stonework in the Earl Young style, with lovely waterfront marina promenade, new performance pavilion, viewing platforms, and a childrens' splash pad. A trout habitat is expected to be completed in June 2009, replacing the old trout pond. East Park, the heart of the community, is the venue for all of Charlevoix's special events--and two short blocks from Charlevoix Haven.

Michigan bed and breakfast
Charlevoix Haven features 9-foot ceilings and oak woodwork throughout the main floor with an updated country kitchen and a floor plan that offers real privacy for up to 10 guests in 5 private rooms while inviting family fun and relaxation in the rest of the house. Three bedrooms have queen or king/twin beds (fourth bedroom has a double bed). Additional Bunk Room downstairs (the fifth bedroom) has bunk beds and an attached half-bath. All bedrooms (except the Bunk Room) have cable TV/DVD.

You may not need Charlevoix Haven’s central air conditioning, but if your vacation does hit one of Charlevoix’s occasional weeks of warm nights, the A/C and the short walk to both Lake Michigan and Lake Charlevoix beaches will assure your family of having both sunny days and restful nights!
