We had an amazing stay! The property is beautiful and right on the water, with stunning waterfront views. The house was spotless, well-maintained, and in a perfect location—just minutes from downtown Traverse City. The host was incredibly communicative and accommodating throughout our stay. We especially loved the outdoor patio, which made the experience even more relaxing. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay here! Location can’t be beat, close to traverse city and convenient to visiting all the other towns in the area. The outdoor space is priceless, we enjoyed it from sunrise to lounging in the afternoons, to stars and fire at night. The house is exceptionally clean and cozy, with comfortable beds and lots of extra pillows, blankets, etc, and a fully stocked kitchen with all the essentials. As people with allergies we REALLY appreciated that the house did not have heavily scented plug-ins or cleaning products.Highly recommend and would definitely rent again. Thank you for sharing this great house!

Beautiful view, super nice house

We had an amazing time. The house had plenty of room for all of us and was very clean. This is the only VRBO I've ever stayed in that actually had enough wash clothes for all of us for the entire trip, so I didn't have to worry about washing towels. The view is perfect... Beautiful sunrise! We loved watching the birds and sailboats go by. 10 out of 10, would stay again!

All reviews gave this property a 5 perfect score. While skeptical this place could be that fantastic, IT WAS! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING was amazing. Doug was so pleasant to deal with, and our family (grandparents, parents, kids and grandchildren) loved the patio and immediate beach access. We will be back next summer! Wow!

Outstanding Experience

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the fine accommodations. Doug Street is an outstanding host who is very easy to work with. The Patio was an amazing place to spend time our adult children and grandchildren. We spent most of our time there and on the beach area just in front of the patio. It was nice to have the properties mooring station in place so we could keep the pontoon boat tied up steps away from the patio.
