Relaxed Stay!

The property was very, very clean and well cared for. It was well stocked with living essentials (Soaps, cleaning products, TP , paper towels, etc) kitchen items, linens, etc. It was in a very good location easily accessible to downtown Traverse City and Sutton's Bay. Very nice beach. It is located on a very busy street (M-22) so if you have small children or pets who easily run from you -you need to be aware of that. Highly recommend property!

West Bay House with extras

Family getaway with adult children. Lots of kitchen items, storage & cooking options. Home was clean & tastefully decorated. We enjoyed the private West Bay beach, although the traffic speeding made it difficult to cross the street or get out of the drive at times. Huge backyard. Kayaks were a nice extra, although my very tall family members did not fit well. Would stay here again despite that & would recommend!

Beautiful Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great space and location. Plenty of room for 6 people. Backyard and beach areas were beautiful! Had a lot of dishes and supply of towels/blankets/pillows. Most things were cleaned well. However, there was a lot of dust on windowsills, fans, and underneath beds. The couch and chair have been used a lot and are kind of hard to get out of, especially if you are older. We didn’t spend a ton of time at the house, mainly just for sleeping and breakfast. So it worked well for us.

Vacay by the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. Property is in great shape and was equipped better than any other place we have stayed at. Complete with spices, napkins, paper towels, etc...Some feedback. I assumed we would have access to the garage. I know it wasn’t specifically mentioned, but prior places we rented have allowed access. I almost brought our bikes. That wound have been a major hassle. A quick statement saying no garage access would have set my expectations. The ac never got below 73. Either it works poorly, isn’t sized for the house, or the controls are locked down to prevent it. The main reason we rented this property was ac and allowing dogs. We had 2 uncomfortable nights. The ac is enough that we won’t consider coming back.

Loved it

First off the beds were amazing. I have stayed at so many others for work and this one had the most comfortable beds. Loved the little beach area. It was perfect for a nice little relax after a long day. I have learned I am not a kayak person.. lol but if you are then you will enjoy them. All and all it was a great stay. And I 10 out of 10 recommend.
