Short Version: We loved it!…read more Long Version: I have watched the Charlevoix webcam from across the bridge, and always thought that it would be great to stay at Edgewater. Their website allowed us to check each available unit. We chose the unit and reserved two days. Medical issue arose, and we needed to delay the trip by a couple of weeks. Since the unit would be available, they seamlessly moved the reservation. We then added a 3rd night. The unit was clean, with a wonderful view from the balcony. Their instructions for getting new towels were clear and easy to follow. There are laundry facilities on site. We plan to return, so that says it all. Management company team were all professional and friendly. Very few people post positive reviews on Yelp, but my suggestion is to focus on the reviews from THIS decade.

First negative review on Yelp. I gave them weeks to respond to my calls, today I called again, was…read moretold by their friendly GM (Brandon, not sarcasm) that the owner was not interested in further discussing this "situation" aka our family holiday experience. Family holiday, with our 2 kids, stayed three nights 9/14-9/16/20. $239/night. First day, raised complaint that the kitchen came with cooking pots and pans that were caked in old eggs. We ate out instead. Second night, we discover our door to the room had a malfunctioning locking mechanism, thus the room door literally could not be locked. Meaning, night 1 we slept with an unlocked hotel door. Night two, once discovered, I barricaded at night for peace of mind. Sure, it's Northern Michigan - but still. They fixed it our last day - to their position, they were (I presume) unaware they provide us a room without a properly locking door. Hotel doors that lock..a cleaned kitchen - basics. Yes? Minimal expectations for a Inn at any price. I am a business owner myself and felt/feel that this type of experience must be handled professionally - even if unintentional. I would refund the stay if I gave a damn about consumer experience. At least 50% back the nights they slept without a locking door in the room? Buy them a meal for the gross pans in their kitchen? They reluctantly offered us $100 (I paid $800) and 10% off our NEXT stay after I asked if they were doing anything for us. Next stay? ‍ Customer service is dead! And that's coming from a millennial likely speaking of an elder. I requested the owner reconsider our experience, gave him 30 days, to see if he was willing to take better care of us. Bonus features: they told me we had a room with a great balcony when I reserved it, was literally bars over a window - so wife and I had no balcony when kids were asleep as we had hoped for..asked for, the WiFi was shotty, there were several power outages, gym closed despite gyms open lumpy bed, construction next door, sauna down, and the staff wasn't masked up despite signage requiring guests to be. If you're not slobby boomer, AVOID

I've enjoyed playing Charlevoix CC, as well as numerous other northern Michigan courses, for the…read morepast 60+ years I've lived in this beautiful part of this state. The course is well maintained and the fees are very reasonable.

IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER FIND ANOTHER COURSE…read more First off, the course is underwhelming when comparing it to any Boyne owned courses. Second, the staff is unbelievably rude to non members. They don't want non members to golf there, they just want your money. We were golfing a 9 hole scramble with a group of 4 and a group of 3. The course staff told us to tee off the back 9, but be aware of some twosomes coming up behind us (obviously not a problem). They did not catch us until the 8th hole, and we let them pass. The course martial came out on a golf cart after the 8th hole and told us that we were "making this very difficult for him" and that "he will be having to deal with calls from members complaining about this". We competed 9 holes in 2 hours so by no means were we going slow. We get back to the clubhouse and the golf manager came out to tell us that we are not welcome back. They want one time golf fees from non members, but do not want us to actually golf there. The reality is they can't stay open if they don't keep it open to non members, but will complain about them instead the entire time they are golfing. We won't be back. If you are looking for a good place to golf, I recommend going to Crooked Tree, or another Boyne owned course. The courses are better and the staff is much friendlier.

Lucky number 300!…read more These fine folks offer their lovely barn as a venue for weddings, reunions, and their very own concert series. At the concerts there is usually a potluck which can be fun. The musicians and bands that perform are very eclectic, and I do mean that in the best way. I had the good fortune to see local favorite, Breathe Owl Breathe. On another night, I saw a middle-eastern instrumental group from Lansing. So, come one come all to the musical buffet and remember to bring something tasty for the potluck. At the farm, you will also find chickens, rabbits, and geese. They also run a csa, and sell goods at the farm market in Charlevoix. See their website for more info about all that they do. The farm can be difficult to find, it is off of Barnard Rd. in Charlevoix. The drive up from T.C. is quite pretty and I highly recommend it. disclaimer- I volunteered here for short stint earlier in 2011, so of course I think these folks are great fun...and I do hope you will too.

While there are several great individual rental units within this inn, our experience was not one of the most updated. The unit was very old. The main common areas seemed to be very run down and not very clean. While booking this location, I would ask for current pictures of the units and review sanitization procedures. Overall, the location made our experience great but the room itself was pretty run down
