Tranquil winter stay

My husband and I came for almost a week, the property is lovely and clean. Kitchen had all we needed and the property is definitely well-thought out. Plenty of towels for the hot tub, basic necessities and owners are very responsive. Only downside is the street noise is noticeable but we just played music which covered it easily.

Fall Weekend

Great place to stay while we were in TC for a soccer tournament. Loved the layout and there was plenty of room. We also enjoyed the privacy outside. Our dog loved the surrounding nature and the creek as well as being able to walk to the state park to play in the sand & water.

Two Nights In September

Wow! We loved this stay. Unique property that was as clean as brand new. Spotless! Sitting in the living room made us feel like we were in a Japanese garden. The stream outside is lovely. The beds were super comfortable and we appreciated the great pillows. The location was terrific for the activities we pursued. Could not be more pleased!

Fall/Winter Weekend Getaway

My sisters, mom and I went up for a quick weekend in Traverse City and this house was perfect for us! Despite being close to town, you felt secluded and the yard space was beautiful with wooded area and river right out back! Great location and excellent communication, would definitely come back and spend even more time.

unique getaway

Overall the stay was great - place was neat, well organized, and everything was very easy and accessible. Super unique location, but the fence made it feel very quiet and private and away from everything, which was exactly what we were looking for. Great to be so close to downtown but feel like you were out in nature. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something unique and quaint but only a few short miles to downtown TC.

Loved Traverse City and the house! Smartly decorated, cute and comfortable. 5 of us and our little pooch had plenty of room. Proximity to the beach and downtown was awesome. Highest compliment I can give is WHEN we come back to TC, we will stay here again!
