We have stayed in 5 different homes in the Traverse City area for vacation in the past 10 years, by far our favorite. This is our second time at this house. Beautiful very clean home, with a great front porch view of the water. They also have a very nice screened in porch in the back. Hosts are very nice and helpful. Great home highly recommend!

The accommodations were fine and access to the property was easy. It’s located some distance to restaurants and grocery shopping, but not an inconvenience. One issue we did have was access to the dock. We were lead to believe that it was a part of the property itself even though it was across from a somewhat busy road. We only learned of not having access to it only upon reading rules of the house. Fortunately, we didn’t need the dock, but it would have been nice to see the bay close up.

The home is beautiful, spacious and comfortable with everything you need. The property is also lovely, with a beautiful backyard and lake across the street. We enjoyed sitting on the beach deck right on the bay.

The house was very nice and clean and had most of the things we needed for our stay. The view of the lake was beautiful and we enjoyed sitting by the water a couple of evenings. We even got in the water for a little bit! The back yard and back deck were also very nice. We grilled out one night on the charcoal grill and had a weiner roast using the fire pit one night. The only issues we had were minor inconveniences and we did not even mention them during our stay. There is no garbage disposal which makes clean up a little more cumbersome. There is no water or ice from the refrigerator, it looks like the water line is not hooked up, this just forced us to buy bottled water and make ice since all four in our group carry iron flask water bottles. The fire in the pit was challenging to get started because the sprinkler system comes on in the mornings and dampens the wood/brush in the pit....we got it going eventually though! The traffic as others have mentioned is VERY loud and was constant during the time we spent there....this however was already expected. The property was great overall and the location worked well for us. We did a tour of the asylum in Traverse City one night, kayaked the Crystal River, spent a day at Old Mission and of course visited some wineries and other places along M22! Will definitely consider staying here again!
