Charlevoix
is a resort community nestled between Lake Michigan, Round Lake and Lake Charlevoix in northern Michigan. One of the hottest destinations for boating, Charlevoix is a city on three lakes with enough natural resources to make it a recreational paradise for those who love to spend time in or out of the water. The town of Charlevoix and surrounding small communities has a population of 8,500, but that grows to over 30,000 people in the summertime. In addition to boating, fishing and swimming, Charlevoix offers visitors beautiful beaches for sunbathing, water skiing, canoeing, hiking and biking, long walks along the waterfront, state parks with camping facilities, and much, much more. Michigan is home to more golf courses than any state in the country, and a lot of them are located in the Charlevoix area. Despite its popularity with tourists, Charlevoix has retained its small town charm and its downtown has picturesque petunia lined streets filled with a mix of unique shops, art galleries, antique shops and restaurants. Walk to five downtown beaches, and of course, the beautiful marina. Charlevoix is home to an apple festival, an annual Waterfront Art Fair, and the annual Charlevoix Venetian Festival. The latter is a week long festival of boat parades, arts and crafts, Venetian games, and other activities that attracts thousands each year.

The Great Lakes has a big influence on the weather of northern Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This area enjoys four distinct seasons with mild, comfortable summers and cold, snowy winters. The Lakes modify summer high temperatures, keeping things from becoming too hot and humid, thus making the northern parts of the state an attractive vacation spot. Autumn is generally too cool for swimming, but is a great time for other outdoor attractions, such as golf and boating, and for sightseeing. Fall comes early to northern Michigan and fall foliage color peaks around mid-October. The luminous Northern Lights are a spectacular phenomenon that is usually visible from northern Michigan 30 nights per year, most commonly in March, April, September and October. The region surrounding the town of Charlevoix has an average of 5 days per year above 90 degrees F. and 183 days below 32 degrees F. They also receive an average of 96 inches of snowfall per year.
