About this bed and breakfast

Ours is a simple, SMALL beach house, located on the grounds of our family home (which means that we share the beach). West Grand Traverse Bay is twenty steps away from the front door - - and downtown Traverse City is a 15 minute walk down the beach -- or Front Street.

We rent it from Sunday-Sunday from June through September ($2500 per week).

Between October and May, we rent it by the month ($2000/month). It is just become available for 15 Sept 2025 - 30 May 2026.

We must limit the number of residents because of the limitations of the plumbing. Parties of more than 4 will need prior approval and perhaps a damage deposit and/or an increase in the rental fee.

We ask for at least 50% of the fee in advance. The balance is due on check-in. Check in is at 2 p.m. on Sundays. Check out is at 10 a.m. on Sundays.

The sunsets are out of this world - - and sunrises are pretty spectacular, too!

We are happy to have pets (an extra charge of $500 is needed) - - and it is paradise for children of all ages!

It is a highly rated spot!

The cottage is exactly as described. I have been renting this beach house for many years. The view and prime location are amazing. The owners are delightful and friendly.

We loved this place, and can’t wait to return. The house, was perfect size, for my husband and I. It was well equipped, and had a wide open feel, with all the large windows. The views, were beautiful in all directions. It had lush green well maintained property, and of course, a lake view. The few steps to the perfect sand beach, to swim, and just relax, made it very hard to leave!!

The cottage was very comfortable and location was fantastic. Great views of the bay and a short walk to downtown.
