FAQ

How do I improve the internet connection?

We've added a WiFi extender to improve coverage. If your signal is weak, you may need to manually switch to the extender's network (HomeWifi_EXT) in your device's WiFi settings. The password is the same as the main network.

A ceiling fan isn't working — what do I do?

Each room has two wall switches — one controls the overhead light, the other controls power to the ceiling fan. For a remote-controlled fan, make sure the fan wall switch is turned ON, then use the remote to adjust the fan speed. The remote does not control the lights.

Where can we rent boats on Lake Charlevoix?

Head to Boyne Water Sports on Lake Charlevoix — they'll equip you with everything you need to enjoy the water. (See the Boating section for your slip details.)
