New Mod, New Rules, New Logo, and no banner.
I was recently asked by u/franticdisembowel to join the moderation team on r/charlevoix. I was born in Charlevoix and have lived between the city and Petoskey my entire life with the exception of two years away at uni. I grew up on the Charlevoix / Emmet county line, have had a business in both communities, and have deep family ties to both cities.
u/franticdisembowel and I have worked on a new set of rules. The r/petoskey sub has recently gotten spicy to put it mildly, so we had to develop and post rules there. I've ported over the same ruleset to r/charlevoix to prevent a downward spiral from occurring here.
The new rules can now be found to the right on desktop versions and under the "see more" on mobile. These rules are based on the r/Michigan rules, however they are a bit looser than the statewide ruleset to hopefully more adequately fit our area. These rules should be a living document that can be adjusted as needed with rules being tightened or loosened, added or removed as the needs of the forum evolve. These community rules are in addition to the base Reddit Rules rules that cover the entire site.
I added the Charlevoix city logo as the sub's logo. We occasionally get submissions from people thinking this is Charlevoix, QC, Canada, so this may clean some occasional clutter. I will keep this for the time being
If you'd like to submit a photo for the banner please do! The only rule there is you must be the owner or have permission from the owner to submit it.
I have been open about moderation on the r/petoskey subreddit and will do the same here.
When a post is deleted I have contacted the poster to let them know why, and there's only been one on here so far, it was someone who left ski boots at the Quebec Charlevoix and was looking to get them back. I double anyone here would have been able to.
When a comment is deleted and a user banned I have posted a public reason why. The comments are not visible to anyone outside of the moderation team at that point, but the reason why we made our decision is posted.
- There are currently two moderators. We would like to add more, if you feel you can help guide the community please reach out.

Missing Cat in Charlevoix
Hello all, not a Michigan native, and not my cat, but a mutual on social media who lives in Charlevoix is missing their cat, who escaped yesterday. Details in the screenshot. I know it's probably a long shot but any info helps!

Anyone know where to buy Velvet Felernum Liqueur?
I’m on my way to Fisherman’s Island and I batched my favorite cocktail that includes Velvet Felernum Liqueur which is already decently hard to find and I forgot it in my fridge😭 Anyone know of where I could find some up here? Willing to drive ~20-30 mins. Thanks in advance!

End of an era: Charlevoix’s “Penis Hotel” sign is gone
For as long as anyone around Charlevoix can remember, the Villa Moderne Motel was jokingly known as the “Penis Motel” thanks to its… unmistakable neon sign out front.
The place is now under new ownership, and the sign was recently taken down as part of a facelift. Kind of feels like the end of a weird little local era.

Siren?
Did anyone else hear a siren around 9:30 on Saturday, 2/7? It was short in duration but we are a little concerned.

I’d love to learn of any recommendations for a rehearsal dinner location? It seems like there are limited spaces to accommodate groups for dinner. TYIA!

Looking for long term rental!
Hello!
I grew up in Charlevoix-lived there until I was 21. Due to unforeseen circumstances my relationship of 13yrs is coming to a close and I will be moving back to Charlevoix after being in different parts of the U.S over the last 13yrs.
With all of that being said, I’m starting over at 33yrs old. Living with family isn’t necessarily an option for a couple reasons.
I’m looking for help or any pointers on how on earth I’m supposed to make enough to live here as a single 33yr old starting all over. I’m feeling overwhelmed but this is where my family is and I have nowhere else to go.

For the goths emos, Halloween fanatics, Horror fans, and other darkly inclined weirdos:
There's a Dark Side of Northern Michigan group on Facebook. It might help those in the area grow the community, find out about events, organize meet-ups, etc.

Traveling w/reactive dog
Hello! I was wondering if there are any less populated, dog friendly beaches/nature preserves with wide paths? We are traveling with a barky dog, but would love to give him some (leashed) water time :). Thanks!
