Nice quiet property close to town but away from the craziness of TC in the summer until you’re ready for it. Property was clean spacious and the whole process was incredibly easy. All the amenities you could want inside plus a nice firepit out back. We will definitely be back.

Five StarsThis property is a perfect Northern Michigan retreat, especially if you are in the area for the Traverse City Horse Show. Being only about four minutes from Flintfields made the stay incredibly convenient. Early mornings and long days at the show are much easier when your drive back home is this short.The location is also fantastic because it sits almost right between several great towns. It was easy to go into Traverse City for dinner, head to Elk Rapids to explore the waterfront, or even run over to Kalkaska. Everything felt close while still enjoying the quiet of a peaceful country setting.The house itself is bright, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. The two large ensuite bedrooms made it perfect for traveling with others, and the updated interior and open living space made it easy to relax after long days out.We visited during the winter and the fire pit outside was a highlight. Sitting around the fire in the crisp Northern Michigan air made the whole stay feel cozy and memorable.If you are coming for the horse show this place is hard to beat. The proximity to Flintfields alone makes it ideal for riders and spectators alike. We enjoyed it so much that we are already planning to come back this summer!
