Second Street Retreat

Welcome to our home away from home!
Sweet home with cozy hangouts and space to stretch out. It is located just a little over a mile from the heart of downtown where there are plenty of fabulous food options, shops and recreation! "Stroll the Streets" is a highlight every Friday night in the summer. We are just a couple blocks from Avalanche Preserve if you're looking to hike, bike or disk golf. In the winter, the park even has iceskating and sledding with free rentals!

The is a cozy home with clean, well decorated spaces on the main floor and a great hangout downstairs. With a large sectional couch, TV and ping-pong table, there's plenty of space to spread out and enjoy time together after your long day of exploring Northern Michigan!



Please message, text or call with any questions. We are available 24/7, but please respect reasonable hours of 8am-9pm unless it's urgent. We want you to have everything you need to enjoy our home and do everything in our power to ensure that is the case!

We love to offer our input if you need suggestions. We can also line up great local babysitters, catering services and family photo shoots to capture your moments and turn them into lifelong memories!

Be sure to check out our 'guidebook' found within your welcome email and let us know if you need additional information!

It's on a quiet Street in town. It's a safe walk or bike ride to get downtown.

Parking for 2-3 cars is available at the house. Driveway is long and runs on the left side of the home. Parking at the house is free. There is room for three vehicles. Street parking is not allowed overnight in the city. Boyne City is a community of mixed travel. Most businesses have bike racks outside, parking is usually a breeze but walking is also safe at all hours of the day and night.

Easy Check-In Process for your rental agreement, ID verification, & security hold

It’s just like when you check in at a hotel and give your ID and security deposit to the front desk, except our front desk is online! It's super easy to complete on your phone! We use a web-based system called Happy Guest, and you’ll receive a personalized rental agreement, ID verification, and a simple security hold (which is not a security deposit) to receive your arrival instructions. It’s simple: finish these steps, and you’re all set to enjoy your stay! Note: arrival info won’t be sent without completing these steps, and refunds aren’t possible if skipped. Your personalized guidebook will give you all the info about the home, my favorite local spots, automatic early check-in notifications, and sometimes even late checkout! You can even share it with friends and family! Got questions? Just message us anytime!
