Waterfront vacation rentals in Carp Lake

Very convenient to downtown.

Beautiful view of the water! Close to many good restaurants & shops. This room is connected to an inn, and the large, shared deck is connected to the bedroom and living room. There could be noise from other guests while you are there. The entrance is next to the lobby with the vending machine, so again- the other guests will be nearby. We enjoyed exploring the area… beautiful location!

We enjoyed our stay. This room was perfect for a few night stay, had basic kitchen amenities, Roku worked well, couch and lighting gave it cozy feel. Room was very clean, good use of small space. Great location. Communicative hosts. We would stay again.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Angela’s property. So many beautiful plants and everything was so clean and well maintained outside. A real oasis. The room was very clean and the linens smelled so good. I am a germaphobe and I never felt uncomfortable staying there. It was near so many attractions while also being very private and peaceful —we spent every evening sitting on the beach just taking it all in. Can’t recommend enough!

Mary Beth and her husband were VERY friendly yet not intrusive. Everyone we talked to on Beaver Island were friendly, helpful and informative. The apartment was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We ate every meal at the apartment and never felt like something was missing or needed. My sister in law slept in the bedroom and said the bed was comfortable. I slept on the couch and it too was comfortable. Lastly, it was nice to not have a long list of ‘to do‘s’ before checking out! We would book again without hesitation!

This apartment had room to spare! It was well-stocked, very clean, and was filled with sunlight. What struck us the first time we entered, and each time afterwards, was just how roomy the apartment was. The 10-foot ceilings only added to the feeling of spaciousness. And since we were there after the busiest part of the season, it was also blessedly quiet. The attached deck was a bonus that offered a beautiful view of the harbor.

Absolutely would stay here again! It had everything we needed, it was extremely clean and fresh. The quality of the linens and towels as well was a huge bonus! would recommend for anyone. was very convenient for a wedding we were attending down the road at Castle Farms.

Jessica was very responsive and helpful. The 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms is just what we needed. Clean and well put together. Local to golf courses and wineries. Walkable to all downtown shops and restaurants. We hope to come back one day!!

Our stay at High Banks Haven was very relaxing with privacy and lots of amenities. The wood burning hot tub was such a treat, we were in it multiple times a day. Once you get it to temp. it’s amazing how well it holds temperature the next morning! A quick walk down a set of stairs to the beach, it’s very rocky but that’s what we were looking for. The master bedroom was cozy and had a comfortable firm mattress. Everything was clean and tidy. Kelly was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions we had. We had a wonderful stay and will rave about this place to everyone we know!

This place was so nice and relaxing! One thing that we were happy about is that they welcomed dogs! We have 2, 9 month old mini poodles and this was their first adventure so having a host that accepts pets was #1 on our list. This place is way better than the pictures! We felt right at home and we loved watching the boats go by on the river! The beds were so comfy and made for an even better relaxing time. I highly recommend this place. It is very private and quiet! We saw lots of different types of birds, including a couple eagles. We knew a beaver was close by but never got to see him, only his handy work. I wish we could have stayed longer and hope to be back in the future! Thank you Donald, we soooo enjoyed your place!

Sean’s place truly feels like a home away from home. It’s thoughtfully designed with unique touches that make it stand out. The amenities are great—from waterfront access to a sauna by the dock, perfect for a refreshing swim-to-sauna experience. The location is also incredible. We loved exploring nearby towns, discovering an organic winery, and relaxing at local breweries that offer stunning views of Lake Michigan. Sean was an exceptional host—welcoming, responsive, and genuinely hospitable. We’re already looking forward to coming back in another season. If you’re considering this stay, don’t hesitate—book it! You won’t regret it.

The cabin was cozy and had great views. Parking is a bit limited if you have more than one vehicle but we made it work. Robert was great at responding to all my questions. There was also plenty of staples like salt, pepper, toilet paper, paper towel etc. I would definitely rent this place again.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. It was a beautiful and peaceful spot! Ed was very helpful and kind. He helped point out hiking and restaurant locations for us to visit. They also provided a lot of items for us. I would recommend coming back again!

Staying here was truly relaxing. We felt like we were actually able to unplug and get away. The property is absolutely beautiful and so fun to explore. This place made our trip to the U.P. extra special. We would happily visit again.

We cannot say enough good things about your stay & Beth! My family was in town for our wedding & Beth was more than accommodating with early check in so we could get things going! While I had a busy weekend as the bride, Beth sent multiple messages checking in on us & letting us know if we needed anything to just reach out! Even my mother mentioned how amazing that the home had everything stocked & we didn’t need to bring a thing! Something that not every Airbnb offers. The home looked right out at the water, it was updated and such stunning features, lots of spacious areas & rooms, and truly the perfect place to reset during a busy weekend! We hope to stay with Beth at this stunning home again on our next trip to Traverse!

Such a wonderful weekend spent at Ashel’s place up north. We get to see beautiful fall colors right on Lake Huron. We had our 10 months old daughter with us and enjoyed the scenery, serenity and breathtaking view! We got lucky with a slightly warmer fall weather and we spent a whole morning with our daughter on the beach. It was so fun! It’s about 30 minutes to Mackinaw City where we took a ferry to Mackinaw island. We had a great stay! Will definitely be back!

Very nice condo. Beautiful kitchen. Great location for skiing Nubs and the Highlands.

Nice and cozy place and it was a perfect middle ground between Petoskey and Harbor Springs. This place would be a great spot for summer time activities, but it was exactly what we needed for our ski trip. The bed was a too soft for our liking, but other than that everything was great!

My family and I had a fantastic stay at Elizabeth’s place and was exactly as described- beautiful lake view/sunsets, well-equipped, comfortable beds, and great layout for multi-family (a plus I could bring my pup along)! It was a perfect centralized location to the activities we had planned for Memorial Day weekend (1 hr to Mackinaw City, 1 hr to Traverse City, 10 minutes to Boyne City, 30 minutes to Charlevoix and Petoskey). Elizabeth was very responsive and ensured check-in/check-out went smoothly. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

I can’t say enough about this wonderful property and our host Shannon. All the little details were thought of and we really felt at home. This property was stocked with everything you would need for a long weekend or long term stay. Having 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths was a great setup. The proximity to Harbor Spring, Petoskey, Gaylord, and Boyne is perfect. Anytime I come back to this area this will be my first choice of accommodations. 10/10 recommend!

Our stay at Kathy’s place was perfect! The rental was spotless upon are arrival and Kathy was extremely flexible with check in and checkout. Her communication before and during our stay was outstanding and prompt. Kathy went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable during are stay. I would definitely recommend her place and happily rent from her again in the future.

It was just what we thought. Holiday weekend for our first trip. This was a convenient spot to come back to and relax. Very clean, comfortable. 4 Adults were not crowded. Owner responsive for a few questions. Happy with stay.

Amazing time, great location and just what we needed during our stay in downtown, will be back again! :)

Forest’s condo. is a perfect haven for fun, relaxation and comfort. She is extremely responsive to questions and wants the renters to have a great experience. We look forward to going back!
