Looking for an “Up North” vacation home where you can relax on unspoiled beaches and hunt for Petoskey stones? Then look no further than Charlevoix, Michigan! Included in the Chicago Tribune’s list of the “Best of the Midwest: 10 places to go in 2020,” this historic town boasts everything you want in a getaway destination.  

The town’s charm 

Step back in time by visiting the settings Ernest Hemingway wrote about in The Nick Adams Stories, inspired by the famous author’s own experiences from his summers in Northern Michigan at his family cottage. Downtown Charlevoix features boutique shops, popular restaurants, and world-class events set along Round Lake, which connects to Lake Michigan below the historic drawbridge. You also can’t miss out on the historic architecture of the town that includes the majestic Castle Farms and the Earl Young Mushroom Houses, constructed by the self-taught builder starting in 1919.  

No shortage of outdoor fun  

When you’re looking for a second home to get away from it all, having an abundance of outdoor activities for the family is a must. Charlevoix offers everything you’ve ever wanted if you’re an outdoor enthusiast. From the crystal clear waters where you can swim, boat, kayak, or paddleboard to recreational opportunities of 20 plus trails and nature preserves, Charlevoix has something for everyone.  

If you are looking for a second home to enjoy the winter holidays, there’s no better place to play in the snow. With an average of 120 inches of snow annually, there’s a variety of winter recreation that tops the charts in the Midwest, including nearby Mt. McSauba, which ranked as one of the top three small ski areas in the United States.

Welcome to The Enclave, Charlevoix's newest luxury townhome development. Just steps from Ferry Beach Park and Northwest Marina Yacht Club—and an easy five minute stroll into downtown Charlevoix—this brand-new ground-floor condo puts Northern Michigan living just outside your door. South of the bridge, shopping, restaurants, the hospital, and the airport are all within a few minutes drive or walk. Inside, two bedrooms and two baths open into a light-filled floor plan built around a chef-ready kitchen: quartz counters, premium stainless appliances, custom maple and white oak cabinetry, and wide-plank LVP underfoot. Details throughout are deliberate—solid-core custom doors, refined porcelain tile, designer fixtures, sound-control construction, and energy-efficient aluminum-clad wood windows. The primary suite feels tucked away, with a spacious walk-in closet and a spa-style bath finished with a large tiled shower, custom cabinetry, and quartz. Overhead, a 600 sq. ft. composite rooftop deck functions as a second living room: morning coffee, evening gatherings, or a quiet seat after a day on the water. The build is as considered as the location—enhanced insulation, high-performance mechanicals, James Hardie siding, and 50-year architectural shingles. A matching 600 sq. ft. attached garage covers parking and storage. New construction, lock-and-leave convenience, and a rare downtown address. This is your chance to live in the heart of Northern Michigan.
