About this property

Violet’s View — Where Pets & People Vacation

  • Looking for a getaway where the whole family—pets included—can relax? Welcome to Violet’s View, a warm and inviting retreat designed for both people and their furry companions. This beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has everything you need for a peaceful, joy-filled stay.

    With breathtaking views of Grand Traverse Bay, you’ll slip into vacation mode the moment you arrive: relax, explore, repeat. A short quarter-mile walk brings you to the neighborhood’s shared waterfront access, where you can take a refreshing swim or head out on the provided kayaks with your fur babies.

    The home accommodates up to 6 guests (maximum of 4 guests over age 6), and both dogs and cats are welcome—just be sure to register them with the host. At Violet’s View, pets aren’t just allowed—they’re thoughtfully catered to.
