Updated! Elizabeth House is a Charming Craftsman on Little Traverse Lake.

Forget your worries in this spacious and serene space. This charming craftsman home is surrounded by the best Michigan has to offer. Located just North of Glen Arbor and the Sleeping Bear Dunes you can enjoy Little Traverse Lake, bike trails, Lake Michigan beaches, wineries, and the towns in and around Traverse City all while making this peaceful home your haven to relax. The views of Little Traverse Lake are abundant with walls of windows in every room, and the outside patio is great for entertaining. In addition, there are a couple trails that go right to Lake Michigan in walking distance from the home.

This 4400 sq ft home boasts 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths (2.5 of which were remodeled last winter), a large kitchen, dining room, library, screened in porch, home office, living room with a walkout patio, private lakefront, private dock. The entire main living space was remodeled this year! It was professionally painted, new central air, new furniture, new lighting and ceiling fans throughout. All small appliances were updated as well.

For the summer, the dock was extended with a seating area, 4 new kayaks come with the rental, and there is an option to rent our brand new 2024 Pontoon during your stay! Additional water toys and rafts are on site to enjoy the lake.

We installed home office speed wifi that will run over 20 devices. 3 brand new SMART TVs are in the home. One in the library, primary suite, and secondary King on the second floor. The office also is equipped with computer monitors should you need to get a little work done on your trip.

The entire home is accessible including a washer and dryer. A second refrigerator is also in the garage to ensure enough space for food and drink.

This home is great for entertaining and spending time with friends and family. We fell in love with it and I am sure you will too!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Family Reunion

Elizabeth House was great for our family reunion of 13, toddlers to seniors. Lots of space for everyone to gather and special nooks for those who needed some alone time. Wonderful outdoor opportunities from shallow water play to smooth kayak flotillas. Eating outside and s'mores around the campfire was all fun. Beautiful area with lots to do and over far too soon.

Beautiful home and great location

The house was beautiful and spacious, and we found it to be even better than pictured and described. The host was extremely communicative and helpful. It was a great place to stay with our extended family for the new year. I would definitely recommend this property, it would be even better in the summer and warmer months when you could utilize the lake access.
