We have rolled back are pricing to 2005 levels. Why? So that hardworking people can still take that hard earned vacation, and know that they got the best deal possible. We feel that our second home is easily the best value for your hard earned money, on Spider Lake, maybe even Traverse City. You get a clean, comfortable house on the lake, a 20' pontoon boat ($250/day value), filled with gas/oil ($90 value), a 3 person, 14' fishing/leisure canoe, and whole bean Starbuck's Coffee for when you awake to the breathtaking views from our deck (priceless). Additionally, we just went wireless, that's right, free WiFi for our valued customers. If you can get the same value for less, anywhere in Traverse City, We'll match it, plus give you a 10% discount for staying with us.
Kick back and watch the sunset from your private deck, overlooking the most desirable view of the All-Sports, Spider Lake! The twenty-nine miles of shoreline are perfect for fishing, jet skiing, canoeing, sailing, swimming, and the thirty-foot private dock has a twenty foot pontoon boat, available June thru October (weather permitting), for no additional cost.
There is not a more beautiful spot in the country, to watch the fall change of colors, and for enjoying the winter wonderland getaway. Step out your front door and enjoy snow mobiling, skating, sledding, and ice fishing. Mount Holiday Ski Resort is a short five minute drive from the house. The two-hundred and thirty-six foot deep lot will easily accommodate your RV with plenty of extra space for parking.
This newly remodeled, cozy home can comfortably sleep six. Lounge in front of the fireplace with twenty-seven inch flat screen TV and DVD player, or listen to your favorite music on the stereo. Light up the new gas grill and cook your fresh caught bass, or prepare a gourmet meal in the fully-stocked kitchen.
The master bedroom with queen-size bed looks out on the lake, and the second bedroom has a full-size bed. The living room has a full-size futon bed, and two futon chairs, that easily convert into twin beds for children or small adults. There is an indoor dining table that will seat four to six people, and an outdoor patio set on the deck.
May our getaway home become yours, full of "Simple Pleasures!"

Save-Charming Lakefront Home and Pontoon/Retropriced to 2005
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Traverse City
We think our customers say it best: We want to let you know that we had a wonderful time at your cottage. It really was ‘getting away from it all’. The deck of the cottage is awesome, and it provided a spectacular view of the lake and woods. Most evenings we would cook on the grill and eat outside. We stayed up late every night since it didn’t get dark until 9:30. Sometimes we would light a fire in the ring and roast weenies and marshmellows while taking in the clear night sky and stars. And the pontoon was such a treat! It allowed us to cruise around the lake and take in all the terrific sights. We also rented a jet ski for a few days from Beach Watersports (they deliver right to the lake), and went tubing. My 9 yr old son said he hadn’t had as much fun since Disneyworld. The water was clean and crystal clear - - in fact, in the entire week I never saw a scrap of garbage or debris. We did venture away from the cottage a couple of times to experience the surrounding area. One day we went to Sleeping Bear Dunes for a hike, and then had lunch in the charming town of Glen Arbor. Another day we did a hike at the Grass River Natural area, and followed with a drive up Old Mission Peninsula for a visit to the lighthouse. While on the peninsula, we bought a couple of quarts of fresh picked cherries - - the best I have ever tasted! All in all, one of the best vacations we ever had. Thanks for opening up your cottage for city-dwellers like us-- We will definitely be coming back.

The Unique Benefits at this House
Another happy customer said it all:
Hi Matt and Karen,
We just wanted to write and thank you for letting us use your place on
Spider Lake. We had so much fun we didn't even write in your guest
book.
It was a fabulous vacation. The kids loved every minute and so did my
husband and I. We spent so much valuable family time. I really think
we
are hooked on upper Michigan now. WE are already talking about coming
back.
Your place is set up so well. There was nothing we ever needed. You
have
it all.
Anyway, thanks again. We sure enjoyed ourselves!

Owner's Map of Traverse City
First, I'd like to welcome you to our humble abode. Karen and I looked long and hard to find the perfect place to share with our friends and family. Although we feel that we already live in one of the most beautiful parts of the country, we were both drawn back to our roots, a place where we feel at home and at peace.
We'd love you to come and stay for awhile, and experience what we already know to be true. Spider Lake in Traverse City, Michigan is one of the most tranquil spots you'll find on the planet. If you experience a fraction of the serenity that we do when we stay here, then your time will have been well spent. So come join us in our home and rediscover, "Simple Pleasures."
With Warm Regards,
Matt & Karen David
