It's rare to find a place that's both historic and one-of-a-kind. Located on the banks of the Boyne River in Boyne City's beautiful historic district, RIVERSBYE offers and unparalleled vacation or extended stay experience.
Owned and cared for by the original family for nearly 100 years, as it is today, this gorgeous and immaculately restored home is being offered for the very first time to guests.
Step inside and experience a beautiful and gorgeously appointed historic home at its best.

Delightful Gem

Oh this was such a cozy home. We loved the attention to details. The host made sure we had everything we needed. For context, I traveled with my 2 children ages 9 & 10 my mother age 74 and my husband. We cooked, watched movies in the sitting room and walked to shopping at the little sundry shop just down the street. It’s a truly beautiful home, you won’t be disappointed. We walked along the river in the backyard. It was far enough from the house to feel comfortable with the kids going outside. There are 2. Bikes in the garage and you just 2 blocks from the lake. It was absolutely worth every penny.
