Famous Mushroom House, Earl Young’s Personal Residence overlooking Lake MI!
Across the street from Lake Michigan Beach with the famous red lighthouse where you can walk everywhere!!! Boutiques, restaurants and bars are all only a couple blocks walk. Parks are close by at the beach and library. Completely ideal setting.
We offer our guests all that you need during your stay to make it as relaxing and worry-free as possible. Fully equipped kitchen, new linens, beach towels, towels, paper towel, toilet paper, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, Samsung Frame smart television connects you to your Netflix account, Spectrum cable television, Sonos, WiFi, a huge fireplace framed in gorgeous stone makes it feel like a fairy tale. You won’t want to leave the peaceful scene of Lake Michigan right out the large front window!
The house is so interesting - it’s a U shape. The twin bedroom is at one end of the U and the other two bedrooms at the opposite end of the house. In fact, to get to the king bedroom one must walk through the side of the queen bedroom which also serves as a hallway. There is a bathroom in between the king and queen rooms. Accordion style doors are throughout the house as Earl designed houses to make absolute best use of the space. All of this adds to the fun of staying at a mushroom house!
Since the Mushroom Houses are famous tourist sites, you will have people outside in the road taking pictures of the house. We like the excitement of being a part of Charlevoix history!!
A review left from a guest in March perfectly sums up our home:
This place is simply UNREAL. I'm extremely OCD/germaphobic, so my definition of clean is a bit unrealistic. But this place was truly SPOTLESS, and absolutely perfect in every detail. The home is stunning, and truly extraordinary...a genuine living piece of art and history. Every inch of the home is pristine, and very well set-up for an easy and relaxed experience.
Everything is so thoughtful, the Nespresso, fully stocked with every flavor imaginable and sugar/sweetener, pretty much everything at your fingertips.
The king bed is CRAZY comfy, as are the pillows and blankets. Sparkling clean, but lush and soft and just delightful. Really nice towels, sheets...every amenity is high end. The decor is gorgeous - streamlined but rich and elegant and just lovely.
The location is unreal. You are truly within a few feet of the water, but protected by a wooded area, so the walk to the beach is minutes. It is quiet and insulated, for a genuinely peaceful experience. You can walk down Park Avenue to several lovely restaurants for carry- out or dine-in, steps from the most charming little downtown area, but distant enough that it's downright bucolic.
The highlights of the home are the beautiful fireplace and the outdoor deck area. The fireplace puts off so much warmth, the room is enormous, but so well laid out, it manages to be open and expansive but also cozy. On our one rainy day we just had a movie marathon in that lovely, restful, snug room...precious family time. The back porch is just charming, with a very unique design, cozy and private but picturesque...simply gorgeous.
The value is extraordinary, this home is spacious and comfortable and just so special. It feels like the quality of the original 50s materials, but somehow with no wear and tear. It's quality + clean + artistry = magic.
