Great stay at this beautiful loft downtown. The hosts were very helpful and the property was clean and ready for our arrival. The hosts have thought of many of the comforts that you need away from home and have done an excellent job of getting the space ready for guests. We appreciated the little things like labeling light switches, having soap and toiletries available, coffee, etc. We would definitely stay here again.

This was a wonderful condo in a great location. In the heart of downtown TC, you could be at the beach or most restaurants in a few minutes. We are already talking about renting here next summer.

Wonderful Downtown Experience
Celebrated my wife's b'day here with our daughter. Was a beautiful and clean haven to return to after roaming traverse City. Has a beautiful view of the water on one side and immediate access to front street downtown on the other. Everything was ready and use of the door code for the front and back is very convenient. In my opinion it's as good as any location in traverse City you will find. Make sure to try the Flying Noodle, it is a 2-3 min walk down the road. Some of the better Italian we've had in a while! Thank you and look forward to our next visit.

Stunning condo
This is an absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean property in the heart of downtown Traverse City. The owner and management company did everything right. The only caution we would offer is that you need to be in good shape if you're going to be bringing heavy bags up the back stairs -- especially in winter. We will definitely return to this property.
