The property was excellent for our group! We were in town for a wedding and the property was able to comfortably accommodate all of us guests. I really enjoyed how spacious the rooms were and especially enjoyed the game room upstairs. I will try and book this place for all of my future trips to Traverse City!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was really spacious and it was especially nice to have 4 bathrooms. Everything was very clean. We loved having the fully stocked kitchen, the grill, and games available. The host was very responsive and the location was perfect - just a short drive to downtown. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Place to Stay

Beautiful, clean property. Expansive so no one felt crowded. Location was great relative to town and activities. Only one negative was that we had to buy our own toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, and trash bags. Nevertheless, we would stay here again.

Close to Town / Quiet Location

The house is very large, the downstairs living room is smaller. Good for 4 adults. The upstairs has a massive game room. The house is very clean and cozy with a nice fenced backyard. Our favorite part was the trailhead right next door to take a quick hike and walk the dogs. The house is 10 minutes from the grocery store and right outside of TC to give a quiet and peaceful place to relax.

Excellent Location

"We had an amazing stay! The location was perfect—close to downtown, yet with a charming country-like feel that gave us the best of both worlds. The space was fantastic for our group of friends, offering plenty of room and lots of thoughtful amenities. We especially loved the fire pit, cornhole, and the cozy ambiance, which made for a memorable fall evening. Everything about our stay was comfortable and inviting. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with friends!"

Great stay in a wonderful house, quiet, lots of bedrooms and bathrooms to fit everyone, super fenced in backyard for kids and adults, grass area for dogs. Incredible amenities, games, outside seating area, grill, and 2 family room areas with comfortable couches. Host was wonderful, even let us check in early and add dates to the calendar.

Family get together got the 4th

Well maintained home with good location. Great toys and games to keep 7 year old happy when at the house. Dresser in room I was in had issue with lower drawer right hand side. First night got there I went to open it and the front of the drawer fell off. Found knob but not screw until we looked in upper drawer. I left on the dresser as did not want to try to open again to replace once my son put the face of the drawer back on. That only issue.
