Convenient Location

The longer we stayed the more we loved this studio unit. The space is perfect for two adults. The studio was spotlessly clean with new linens. Access to the beach area on the property is very close and there's one of the best city parks (clean, well designed) along the bay located right next door. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again!

Hotel room sized condo with a view

This place had everything we needed out of a weekend rental. Comfy bed, great view of the lake. Kyle and Dawn were nice enough to upgrade us to a place with a bit better of a view since we were staying for our anniversary. How thoughtful! Only comment is that there is no blow dryer in the unit, which is not a usual situation. I didn’t bring my own since I’ve never stayed some place that didn’t have one so that’s my fault I suppose. Overall great experience and we would come back.

Great location

My family and I stayed one night. Our kids really enjoyed the beach even though we didn’t have great weather for the beach. The condo was close to restaurants in town and not far from the local wineries. The space is a little tight for 4 people, however we only stayed one night so it wasn’t that big of a deal. This place was neat and clean. A big thank you to Kyle and Dawn for making our check-in simple and answering our questions in a timely manner. Thank you so much for having us Stay.

Excellent location!

Great location for a Traverse City getaway! The view of the water from the balcony is so nice, and the beach is just a short walk away. I probably wouldn't come back with 4 people again as it was pretty tight (watch your head on the lamp when the pullout couch is out), but for 2 there would be plenty of space! If you're looking for a clean location to lay your head at night, definitely consider this spot!

This was more affordable than other listings that I saw near Traverse City, and it proved to be a great value. The patio has a view of the bay and sunset, there is a township beach nearby, and it is a short drive to Traverse City amenities. We were very satisfied.

Perfect spot!

We rented the condo for a soccer tournament weekend and it was the perfect place for us to stay. Very clean and the kitchen area had everything we needed to make some food so we didn't have to eat out for every meal. The deck had a great view and we enjoyed walking on the beach and checking out the township park next door. Will definitely stay here again.
