We had a wonderful time here. The property was exactly as described and well equipped. It was large enough to accommodate our family very well. Would love to visit in the summer and be able to use the lake. The property itself is gorgeous. House was clean and easy to access. Host responded quickly when we had questions.

The house was fabulous. Very roomy and perfect for a family with kids. Despite the colder weather & rain we all had a blast. Fishing was great off the dock! We plan to book this property next summer.

We had a wonderful time at George’s place! The house is spacious and welcoming, kitchen was beautiful and functional, had nice supplies too so we didn’t have to scramble for the necessities like paper towels and trash bags, etc. they also had sample size shampoos and toiletries which was a really thoughtful touch! The lake access has an adorable beach entry and dock. My kids had so much fun just jumping off the dock or wading in to the lake from the beach. We rented a boat and took the kids tubing on the lake which was so beautiful and fun. Paddle boarding was great as well (we brought ours) and the house had kayaks.
The hosts are extremely helpful and responsive too! A relatively short drive to Traverse City downtown area. Overall pretty much perfect! I hope we can go again!

Unbelievable views. Excellent lake access. House is very nice and is equipped very well. All of the games such as cornhole, ping pong, foosball, are a great touch. Very close to downtown which is awesome. Overall 10 out of 10, would recommend anyone to stay here.

We come to TC with extended family every year for the Bayshore Marathon over Memorial weekend. This property was perfect for us. Clean, close to town and right on the water. Highly recommended.

We spent 4 nights at this beautiful property on Spider Lake and enjoyed every minute from check-in to check-out. The host is very responsive and genuinely cares that you have everything you need to fully enjoy your stay. The house looks brand new and everything is spotless. We enjoyed cooking in the large kitchen and sitting on the back porch watching the sun rise and set over the lake. We went to Peegeo's for pizza, used the kayaks to tour the lake and little islands, and enjoyed some quiet up-north time with friends and family. We have been coming to Traverse City once or twice a year for ten plus years and this is one of our top 3 favorite rentals to date. Hope that we can stay again in the future.

Great spot overlooking an inland lake... great home for gathering the family, cooking together, playing games and enjoying some outdoor fun in Traverse City. Host was excellent, and the property is fresh and well maintained.

A group of us who have been friends for over three decades decided to travel together for the first time. This was such a wonderful home and location on Spider Lake. We loved being so close to Traverse City for a day trip, but then having a place to go back to that was so peaceful. The property was so clean and beautifully remodeled and Bob was super responsive.

Had the most amazing time at this property. The lake backyard is picturesque and relaxing. It provides views you see on movies. The home is very well built with all new appliances and attention to detail. Loved every minute there. We plan to make this trip an annual one and will look no further than to reserve this property.

A family vacation week on Lake Spider.
This house was perfect. The description is very accurate. Bob, the owner, was very responsive to our questions and was extra accommodating. The house is like new and very clean. The beds were very comfortable and towels/linens were very nice . The kitchen was very well equipped, everything was new as we believe it’s a relatively new rental. The kayaks, ping pong table, foosball table, and assorted indoor and outdoor games were a hit. Having a dock to have our rental boat steps away was awesome. And the fire pit w/wood pile was a wonderful evening event. Plenty of everything (chairs, dining space, dishes etc) was nice to accommodate everyone comfortably. Definitely a top notch rental in every detail. Thank you Bob!

We chose this home due to its proximity to Flintfields Horse Park, but it was so much more than a place to stay during a horse show! The location and lakefront were stunningly beautiful and the house was immaculately pristine and clean. We spent our evenings relaxing and fishing on the dock and grilling on the deck. Gorgeous house, great location, beautiful lake. We loved it!

Beautiful home on Spider Lake
George’s Place was amazing! Robert was very accommodating with the dates and the communication was excellent. The home was beautiful, right on the lake, and included everything. We spent a lot of time floating in tubes on the lake, which was the perfect temperature. Downtown Traverse City was only about 15 minutes away. This is one of the best Vrbos I have stayed in. I highly recommend George’s Place and will be coming back in the future.

My family didn't like the idea there were no reviews on the property when I booked it. As soon as we opened the door it was WOW. George's Place is exactly how it looked on VRBO only better if possible. The minute we walked in you can tell it was a brand new place. You could smell freshness throughout. The view was gorgeous. What anyone would want to see when you open the front door a beautiful lake. The rooms were all huge. The closets were amazing in every room. The kitchen was fully equipped with more than we expected. We didn't need to bring anything (including hangers-which is a first for a VRBO for us). Robert was so accommodating to our family with dates that worked for us. Communication was excellent. Location was good about 10-15 minutes to downtown Traverse City and the beach. I can't say one bad thing on this house. I highly recommend George's Place. One last note if you want pizza Peegeos is excellent.

Stay too short!
This property was perfect for our family get together. Beautiful setting on the lake. Everything was new and clean. Loved the well supplied kitchen. The Ninja blender was a nice surprise. The little ones loved the toys. This house and Sleepy Bear Dunes were the highlights of our Michigan mini vacation.
