A beautiful place in the country, very comfortable and peaceful. Perfect location for my brother and I. Short trip to Traverse City. Went to Charlevoix and Petoskey. Casino is 5 minutes away. If you're looking a place away from the noise, this is it. Love the wood work and the care you put into your place.

A Wonderful Return Visit!

We love everything about this idyllic little home that's just a short distance from Traverse City. It's so clean, well-appointed, quiet and comfortable. Best of all, Kara and Eric are friendly, welcoming hosts to us and our lovable 98-pound dog, Dilly. We know that this is the place we will always try to book! The nearby cows are a bonus--when we spot them! We WILL be back, whenever we can slip away to our home-away-from home!

Easy and beautiful

This was a great place to stay on our visit to the area and Sleeping Bear Dunes. While still an hour away from the dunes all the space in between and near by provided all that we needed, traverse city, pie, wine, beaches. The place was clean, well laid out, stocked, and very easy to check in to, hosts were very helpful and kind.

Peaceful & dog friendly

This was the perfect spot for us and our dogs. It was a relaxing & comfortable place to come back to after our adventures each day. We loved being greeted by the cows every morning. The owners were on site & available, but not at all intrusive. They answered questions immediately. It's a great location to explore all the surrounding areas. We definitely want to come back!

Great place

8 of us used the property for our home base during a yearly golf trip and it served its purpose perfectly. It was clean and well stocked with what it should include. You feel like you're in the middle of nowhere but you're 5 minutes to grand traverse resort and 10 minutes to lots in Traverse City. Great communication from the host before and during our visit. Highly recommend.

Country Haven

This is the second time I stayed here and the return was an easy decision, once I decided what I wanted to do in northern MI. It is clean, comfortable, peaceful and within easy drives to Sleeping Bear/Leelanau area; Traverse City, Petoskey and Mackinaw City. The owners are helpful and welcoming. They are on the same property, but non intrusive. Very pleasant areas to walk the dogs. I'll hopefully return!

Cozy and quiet

It was a great place to stay. Very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed seeing the cows each morning. It’s a country setting but very close to all we needed including Meijer and Grand Traverse Resort. A clean place where we could sleep and cook our own meals and relax in between while including our dog in the stay.

An Adorable Home in a Great Area

This little house is situated in the middle of the country but just minutes from all kinds of fun. It was so quiet there - we slept so well. The bed was comfortable and the place was so clean. We were very impressed by the workmanship in the house and especially the cleanliness. Cara was a great communicator and was very welcoming as well.
