We booked this house for our family reunion and it was perfect. Absolutely stunning property and any questions I had were answered IMMEDIATELY. (Which is the most important detail about anywhere I stay.)Finding somewhere to accommodate our family can be tricky, but this did it. And our dog loved it too!

Family gathering

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was a great choice for our stay. The home was spotless upon arrival and matched the listing perfectly. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and the layout worked really well for our needs. We especially appreciated the little touches that made it feel welcoming rather than just a rental. Communication with the host was smooth and timely, and check-in/check-out were easy. The location was ideal- close to everything but still peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

So happy we chose Blue Valley for our stay!

Came up for a quick girls trip. House was great! Very clean, lots of room for everyone to spread out. There’s a game room area with a shuffleboard game and a large connect 4 game to play. So fun! Started out with an awesome walk on the boardman lake trail (part of the TART – traverse area recreational trails) which is just a short drive from the house. So nice to enjoy the outdoors. It’s a 10 minute drive to old mission peninsula and the wineries. Very close to downtown traverse city for shopping and yummy restaurants like the Tap Room Cider house. There’s also a grocery store nearby. Can’t wait to return for another girls wine trip! Thanks again for a wonderful time.
